Elevator Pitch by Ofelia Gränd is an awesome story that I have read. I loved reading this story very much but it was a little odd for me seeing how it has bear shifters in it but I never read anything with a bat shifter in it. With that being said I loved this story and am looking forward to reading more from this author. I highly recommend this story to everyone who loves reading about bear shifters, bat shifter, LGBT and paranormal romances.

This was fun, funny and pretty damn adorable,
A paranormal romance between to shifters; Bjorn, a bear and Cecil, a bat. NOt one of the most unique pairings Ive read about but definitely one to peak you interest.
Bjorn’s mother seems reluctant to accept that he is gay and therefore feels like he is a disappointment. Growing up conservative does not help all that much. Taking a wife just to have cubs is not his idea of a fulfilling life.
Cecil grew up in the system and he considers that he is alive today simply due to the social workers being blissfully of shifters. Cecil didn’t think very highly of himself. Referred to his physique as; small, slim, and weak.
One of my favorite moments; a wolf shifter called Bjorn a name and he just rolled his eyes. I could visually see that happening and LOL.
Ofelia did a fabulous job at managing a real pairing between these two. So much is packed into this short story and any other way would have not done it service. More than certain to have some good laughs while also displaying real world prejudices that are alive and well.

This is a sweet paranormal romance between Bjorn,a bear shifter and Cecil, a bat shifter who meet while stuck together in an elevator. The author brings a short read and packs a punch with sparks flying between them and filling it with emotion and humor. She moves the story quickly and smoothly and delivers an entertaining story.

4.5 stars. I loved this short story. Poor Cecil made me cringe with all the crap he was dealing with. His propensity to be late seems to be a contributing factor but the bullies aren’t helping either. I liked that when Cecil points out to Bjorn that he has the choice on how he lives his life, it’s like an epiphany. My favorite part is Bjorn convincing Cecil to come to Sunday dinner.
Elevator Pitch is a wonderfully written short story about how Bjorn met Cecil. A story of a broken elevator, gentle touches, paint and coffee, and so much potential. Though they are different kinds of shifters Cecil has tried to live his life as a human and Bjorn just wants to live his life as his true self and not who his mother and everyone else in the community wants him to be. I really enjoyed this story and want to know more about these wonderful characters.

Cute tale of two misfit shifters
4.5 stars
Although the story is short, the two leads get to know each other pretty well thanks to a malfunctioning elevator. Cecil and Bjorn come from very different family situations but they share a desire to escape shifter society’s homophobia. From nosey neighbors to bossy mothers and packs of bullies, these two face opposition but strive to just pursue their version of happiness. Despite their challenges, the story had a lightness that I enjoyed. Cute, to the point and romantic rather than steamy, this Ofelia Grand tale hit the mark for me.
