A fast paced, Thrilling & Adventurous Story! Completed it in 4hrs, Loved Kepler & Ashley Tamsin has build a lovely Alaskan shifter world!
Ashley, a baker & new in town, was outside the bar when a rogue wolf attacked her, her wolf coming to life (The 1st time!), To save her.
Kepler, detective wolf shifter, came there to investigate the dead man & found her in a dumpster, confused & hiding. He knew at a glance that she was his mate
They experienced so much Together! Her newness to being a shifter, Their desire, her friend being a witch.
Evil force wanted her as a vessel. Ash was it’s target for hex (For reason, read book 😉 & It finally controlled her.
(Such a bad timing..Ash & Kep were mated for only a few minutes)
The witches & his friends helped her to come back, before she did any damage. She was so strong during it all…
Ash & Kep finally got their HEA, the epilogue was fantastic
This book is packed with goodness. I’m happy that Witch coven & Pack was on their side
We also find the witch that made the wolves go rogue! This was my 1st book in the series & I’m gonna find about this more 😉
Things I especially loved:
1)How Kep & Ash met
2)Kep’s genuineness & Her being level-headed.
3) Muffy & Tessa-The Witches & Cal & Finch-his new pack mates
4)For a sec I Thought she had lost her wolf, so happy that wasn’t the case
Loved this story, I’m so hyped up for more!
An amazing series that has given me much enjoyment reading. Very entertaining and love the characters in each book.
I really enjoyed this third book in this series. Ashlyn, new to Alaska, met up with some new friends at a bar. She was attacked by a rogue shifter in the alley and she was turned into a shifter and killed the rogue. Kepler found her hiding while investigating the murder and immediately knew she was his mate and he was going to do everything in his power to save and protect her. It took them working together to find the witch who was hexing shifters and finally solve the problem about rogue shifters. During that time, Ashlyn came to know Kepler was also hers and hers only.
Bewitched Shifter is book three in the series, but can be read as a standalone with absolutely no confusion or issue. Book one is our hero (Kepler)’s older brother’s book that will give some nice family background, but again, it is not necessary to enjoy this or any other book in the series. Also, Adrian is awesome, so you should totally give him a go. 😉
I really enjoyed Kepler overall as a character. He’s essentially an Alpha in waiting that’s not ready for a pack, but manages to work well enough with other shifters despite that. He’s also far from home investigating dangerous happenings for the sake of his race and who doesn’t like a selfless hero type? Anyhow, he’s well fleshed out as a person, and the struggles he faces only show that more clearly. Ashlyn is a great match for him.
Ashlyn was an interesting character with some fun quirks and her reaction to suddenly being a shifter is pretty spot on for how I think I’d probably react. She gets over the initial shock pretty quick but holds fast to hope that she can be human again. That obviously causes issues with the whole suddenly having a mate thing, but every story needs hurdles. She’s got great grit, so I like the girl.
The story is a wild ride with shifters of various natures, witches, demons, familiers, action, steamy fun, some hold your breath moments, and a great ending. Definitely gotta give this one a go!
Once I started reading this I couldn’t put it down. The characters were likable and engaging and swept me right along with the story. Ashlyn had a bakery Kepler was a wolf shifter and policeman. Ashlyn had gone out to party with some new friends that she didn’t know very well. The girls had all started drinking before she got there but she wanted to eat before she started drinking. The girls talked her into a couple of tequila shots before she ate. The drinks promptly made her sick and she jumped up to run to the bathroom to be sick. Problem was, she didn’t know where the bathroom was and made a mad dash for the emergency exit. This is where the action ramps up. Without giving anything away she eventually meets Kepler and finds more action than she had ever dreamed. I recommend this book! It will carry you away in a river of action. There are sexual scenes. If this offends you this is not the book for you. But, if you decide to go with it, tie your shoelaces, the road gets bumpy and perilous.
I really liked the early addition I read of Bewitched Shifter, and the most recent version is even better in my honest opinion. I enjoy shifter stories, and Tamsin’s version of how shifters work is fascinating. But there are demons and witches and their familiars as well in this Alaska fantasy romance. The best part of this story for me was the natural flirting and humor between the protagonists.
I had no idea there was so much going on in Alaska! Like shifters, witches, familiars & demons! Ashlyn, an ordinary vanilla human, is dumped into a paranormal mess that confuses the shifters AND the witches. But luckily one of the shifters is her mate, and Kepler refuses to allow anyone to get rid of the problem by eliminating Ashlyn. Thanks to Kepler’s determined protection, Ashlyn has a chance. (YUM! I love that in a guy, don’t you?)
But it takes the combined efforts of everyone to put things right. Pick up a copy and watch Alaska’s paranormal community work together. I’m looking forward to seeing more of the Aurora Shifters in action!
I was gifted an ARC, and I voluntarily reviewed it.
I enjoyed reading this book, it is filled with action, intrigue, and adventure. The interaction and chemistry between the characters of Ashlyn and Keplar is wonderful. I can’t wait for more from this author. I received this book as a FREE ARC copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
Tamsin Ley has created a world in Alaska with witches and shifters (and more), with a slightly different take on shifters. Ashlyn Reed is a sweet, slightly shy woman who is bitten by a werewolf and immediately turns into one, something that is not supposed to happen. When Detective Kepler Stone finds her confused and hiding in an alley his wolf knows Ashlyn is his mate, but how did she shift into a werewolf immediately after being bitten? Sounds like witchcraft.
I liked the way Kepler immediately turned protective (his mate after all) and is so gently with Ashlyn. Of course Ashlyn is confused, but she is actually a strong woman (and wolf) so together they set out to solve the mystery. And there are Northern Lights! Have to love a book with Northern Lights and glaciers.
I received a copy of Bewtiched Shifter from the author and this is my honest review.
