A portal has opened in New York City, allowing an unprecedented number of creatures from the underworld to slip through. The NYPD phoenix shapeshifters are desperate to close it and search frantically for their location. They need all the help they can get and make an appeal to all shapeshifters. However, the largest group of all, the felines, refuse to get involved. Without them, the phoenixes … phoenixes do not have the numbers to turn the tide. Only one person can help them persuade the reluctant felines and she is under the protection of international espionage agent, Derrick Grimes and his shapeshifting team. Mr. Grimes doesn’t really know how to be a protector. His job usually involves infiltrating enemy camps and disposing of the ring leaders. At first, he resents his new role, but a romance develops and he becomes sure of one thing; he would lay down his life for Myra. An unexpected source discovers the portal and the race is on to save New York City from the underground’s royal family.

I received an ARC copy of this book for an honest review.
This is the first book that I have read by this author.
This book is one of those book’s that you say just one more chapter even though you should be turning the light off as you’ve got work in the morning
I absolutely loved this book from the very first chapter it had me gripped and eating up every last word.
The way that Laura has written the characters, well let’s just say I really liked every single character.
This book is really well written and thoroughly enjoyable, it has everything you want from a book, romance and suspense there are plenty of twists and turns that will keep you reading until the early hours of the morning
I’d definitely recommend this book
This is an absolutely marvelous & enjoyable paranormal shifter romance, which keeps the reader’s attention until the end. The plot is well-thought out & written with some intriguing, unexpected mythological situations. The main characters are well-developed & have good chemistry between them but are rather complex at times as they continue to develop throughout the story-line. The secondary characters offer good support.
There is: a young female jaguar queen (Myra) in danger, the four protectors (Derrick, Randall, George & Anthony) assigned to protect her, a loudmouthed opinionated siren (Bunny), various kinds of shifters, portals, agents, guardians, humans, assassins, some humor, twists & turns, intrigue, suspense, assignments, dissatisfaction, action, adventure, mystery, secrets, attacks, enemies, evil, danger, threats, confrontations, conflict, violence, devious plans, confrontations, manipulations, discovery, vulnerability, attractions, negations, compromises, declarations, love, contentment & a satisfying conclusion. I would recommend this paranormal shifter romance to people who like to read this genre.
Derrick , Randall, George and Anthony are spies from Europe that are tasked to pick up a crate box and protect it. Being spies they thought this job was beneath them until they started taking shifts working with the other Phoenixes in the city. Then they realized they had an important job to protect their ‘package’ and even more so with the startling realization of what the ‘package’ really was. Fighting against the unground world is hard business. I love the fact it has incorporated characters from the past two books especially Bunny. Don’t get me wrong I love the other two teams but Bunny is a hoot ! Well worth reading. I believe it would be better to read in order (for full context) although not necessary.

“What We Share Makes Us Stronger”
Laura Wylde has created a paranormal world of magic and the creatures of that shapeshifting domain where sirens, vampires, gargoyles, sea monsters, zombies, trolls, chimeras, banshees and phoenix clash in the tension that exists between good and evil, watched over by the Guardians seeking to hold at bay the power of Set IV, ruler of evil. But, the creatures of darkness are rushing to the surface of the earth through a portal opened from Underworld and order must be restored by the Guardians.
The Guardians are irritated by the apparent blundering of the phoenix shifter’s, latest assignment—to prevent a female sea monster, which has gone amok after drinking the addictive brew of the malignantly motivated sirens, from causing additional harm to humans and sea creatures alike. The sea monster is halted in her killing path and her 3 eggs saved, but she is mortally wounded in the phoenix quartet’s attempt to subdue her. The covert location of the four is exposed by “eco-terrorists” protesting the four shifters act of “murder,” the Guardians relocate the phoenix to America from Amsterdam to assist as “paranormal Interpol” investigating the unprecedented appearances of large numbers of diverse magical creatures in New York City.
The phoenix shifters soon discover that the Guardians have not told them everything about their relocation. Obey: A Reverse Harem Paranormal Romance (The Phoenix Night Shift Book 3) calls on four of the paranormal shapeshifting phoenix—Derrick, Randall, George and Anthony to receive a “package” which, in fact, is large crate in which huddles what appears to by a child—a waif—but is Myra, a Central American woman who has been secreted from her home by a family seeking to protect their daughter from the forces of evil. Now, the four guardsmen must discover who and what she is and who they are to her as the qualities of honor, integrity, bravery and loyalty are revealed to be the true powers of good that can defeat evil.
Wylde weaves mythology, magic and romance to create a tale that pulls the reader into a mystical web of the paranormal. Lured into a world requiring the reader’s “willing suspension of disbelief,” shapeshifters and magic can realistically exist because of the careful crafting of believable characters and relationships that give vitality to the storytelling. Most impactful is the clear message of the importance of the world species working in harmony to triumph over the evils that lurk through time seeking to corrupt and destroy. The concept of “what we share makes us stronger” is true.

The author has brought us characters that you’re willing to fight for. There are so many mythical creatures in this story that it boggles the mind. Good versus Evil in New York City, what a concept.
