Bound by Air begins a fascinating new sub series within the Zodiac Shifters. This fascinating new world is full of magic, unique and intriguing elements and shifters such as the Thunderbird shifter Troy Waman and his Romani Caster mate. The characters are strong, bold and easily draw readers into their world where they dazzle readers with lots of sizzling chemistry, flying sparks, hot passion and spontaneous laughter. The romance between these two is quite rocky and certainly not a sure thing as they clash almost constantly despite the undeniable heat that pulls them together.
The story is fast paced and flows smoothly throughout with lots of thrilling suspense, adrenaline pumping excitement and intense emotions. The tension builds as the disturbance that Troy is sent to investigate leaks some very evil and malevolent magic that has a woman trapped in its web and things escalate from there keeping readers hanging on to each and every word. An elite force of Zodiac shifters is a very intriguing concept so while I think the story could have been fleshed out a bit more and expanded, the first book is quite entertaining so readers will certainly want to visit this engaging world again and again.
Troy and Andrea’s story is fantastic. All the elements – dark magic, shifters, Zodiac, the Romani, Heralds, Wardens, the Fates – all make this a super intriguing read. This is an amazing paranormal series.
I so loved this book! It is the beginning of a great adventure! I am looking forward to the next book. The characters are full of surprises and so enjoyable to read. The coming adventures have me on the edge of my seat.
I absolutely loved this book. It is a fast-paced, romantic, and enetertaining story about an almost-witch and a Zodian shifter. The beginning is very good and so is the ending. All in all, it is a captivating story that you’d want to read in one sitting. For me it was so difficult to put down the book once I started reading.
C.D. Gorri is not a new author to me. I already love her work and I think her stories are always very interesting but when she writes about witches she always makes it epic. Or perhaps it is I who enjoy a good witchy story more than any other. In any case, it is a great book, I liked it a lot, and would recommend it to all paranormal fiction fans who enjoys a good steamy romance story.
This author is new to the Zodiac Shifters Universe but she did a fantastic job with this story.
We get Troy who is one of the warriors of the universe and wouldn’t you know luck would throw him a mate that is a witch but one who may be playing with black magic. Nothing seems to go right for this couple until Grandma steps in.
Maybe with a lot of luck and a little praying Troy and his mate, Andrea can make things right and come out together.
Very sexy short read…
Well worth reading!
I enjoyed this story about shifters with zodiac signs sent out to fight evil. It was a fast and easy read and can be read in one sitting. He’s out to destroy evil, she’s caught up in the middle of a dark spell and he’ll have to save her, even if she’s guilty. I do think this could have benefitted from a bit more story. The first few chapters felt a little repetitive with internal and external conversations but it also felt like there was some background missing. Still it was a fast and easy read.
He is one of the warriors of Terra who are out to rid the planet of dark magic. He goes on his mission and ends up arresting her. But there is a big attraction between them. It is exciting, emotional, suspenseful, dramatic, fun and so much more. Love these zodiac romances. I was given a copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.
Highly entertaining and engaging romance that had me very invested in their journey. Emotionally thrilling, sexy fun and action packed adventure that had me glued to my tablet from beginning to end….. very enjoyable reading experience.
The first book in The Wardens of Terra series. Troy Waman a Thunderbird Shifter, bound to the sign Aquarius, and a Warden of Terra and Andrea Kristos a novice Romani Caster meet under a not so good situation when he puts her in handcuffs. There will be misunderstandings before they can get their happy ending. This book had me smiling in some spots a well written story that held my interest throughout.

Troy and Andrea come from unusual and somewhat damaged family backgrounds.
Both are exceptional, and were more than a little sheltered – until Andrea broke away from her Romani family and came back after the death of her great aunt.
Apparently, accepting and sealing their mate bond is supposed to enhance the powers of the Zodiac Shifter.
thankfully for both, Troy found and released Andrea from the hold of the dark grimoire before it could further harm her.
too bad he was foolish enough to think she might have an interest in the dark arts.
apparently, their strength may be needed in the battles to come in the times ahead – especially since the Hounds were dissolved by the Church as a protective order.
Steamy and exciting adventure!

This was an excellent story. It was an intense ride in all the best ways. I am looking forward to the next book. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book in exchange for a free copy.
Great Book. Action from beginning to the end. First book in the series of Zidiac shifters. He was called into action for his first case. She is having a really bad day, she is caught in a spell. He rescues her and puts her directly into cuffs. Can they put all this behind them so he can claim her as a mate or will they have to break their tentative connection forever. HEA is just a conversation away.
Troy Waman, has been training his entire life as a Warden of Terra, one of the Zodiac Shifters. He had no time for fairy tales like fated mates or love. Being the first called to duty, Troy was sent to fight the Dark Magic plaguing the normals.
Andrea Kristos has been raised by her Grandmother since her parents were killed. She was training to be a Romani Caster (witch) but felt stifled and went on a 5 yr jaunt around Europe, trying to find herself. When called back home to receive her inheritance from her Great Aunt, her life was never the same.
What transpires between Troy and Andrea will have you not wanting to put down the book to see what is in store for them next.
C.D. Gorri is a master storyteller who will keep your interest in this and all her books.
This is a fantastic read. Troy and Andrea have instant attraction but that won’t stop him from doing his duty. He is a Warden of Terra. If you love Shifters and the Supernaturals you will love this story. This Author does a fantastic job at creating these wonderful stories. That pull you in from the first page. The Characters personalities and the Surroundings are brought out great. This is also a fast paced heart pounding read that has you on the edge of your seat. I definitely recommend this read.

Great storyline that keeps you involved and wanting to read. Can’t wait to read more of the Zodiac Shifter Series
I love the Zodiac series. This is the first from Ms. Gorri and she rocked it! This was such a great start for the Wardens of Terra. I loved the introduction of a Thunderbird shifter. Andrea, a Romani, also rare these days. It was such an amazing story. Magic, shifters and romance. Troy had such a big soft heart. Andrea just needed to see how they completed each other. The length of the book was perfect. Just enough that i didn’t have to put it down. I wouldn’t have been able to anyway. I can’t wait to see what happens for the Wardens next.
Outstanding storyline and charcters
This book was a straight hook up fest! Lol it was totally different and took me by surprise! I was expecting a battle between good and evil to go down son! But the only thing that went down was his mate! Lol well, in all fairness he did too…. a lot haha. I still thoroughly enjoyed this book. The cousin had me laughing. I’m the heavyweight champion rick flair 20th dan 4th cousin of sinbad, sailor of 42 seas holder of 9 masters degrees (crumples) lol too funny! The grand mother was hilarious as well! Can’t wait for the others!
Warden’s of Terra are a special group of zodiac shifters, who are to protect Earth against all kinds of Dark Magic. There had been a long time of inactivity, but lately there was a need to reactivate the wardens again. To come fully into their power they need their fated mate. One of the first Warden to be called into action is Troy, a thunderbird shifter under Aquarius. He is tasked to find the source for a disturbance in an old house and there finding a young woman trapped by a spell, attacked by a dark grimoire. This in itself would not be surprising but he instantaneously recognises her as his mate.
Misunderstandings and hurt feelings make life for them and the Fates difficult.
The story itself is good and fun to read, but I found the descriptions of the status of the Zodiac shifters repetitive and together with other long-winding descriptions a little boring. It interrupted the flow of the story for me.
I marked 3 stars, but would actually give it a 3.5 mark.
