I enjoyed the interaction between Jaiden and Myka. The action starts with the first page. Myka’s old boyfriend just can’t take no for an answer. He’s constantly breaking into her apartment. He’s done that so many times that Myka went out and bought 10 doors to replace the doors he keeps breaking. This was a super quick story but I’m glad I read it.

I loved that this book had plenty of action from the beginning. It pulls you from page one and doesn’t let you go. Jaiden and Mya was hesitant and took a little time to get their romance going but once it did; it was great. The book had just the right amount of action and emotional turmoil to make it interesting….just a great read.

I really enjoyed this book, I have a few other books by McKayla, and the different point of view on how shifers find their mates was very interesting to me. Shifters out in the open, with their own branch of the police was really cool too. The story was definitely an attention grabber and the romance was really hot. I wont mind reading more from this author.

Fast and fun shifter story that starts out with some action and continues going. Jaiden is a shifter and a cop and was a likeable character. Mya was also a great character and this story was done with both sides which was nice. When Jaiden saves Mya and she imprints on him there was some great chemistry and some steam with a fantastic story with wolf shifters. Loved it!!

I have read all of Ms. Schutt’s books and I can’t get past how each one shows improvement in her writing. This book kept pace well and kept you guessing. She knows how to keep your interest in the book till it is over. Then your left with the hunger for her next book. I loved this book and all the woofie goodness it had within. Highly recommend it to all wolf shifter lovers out there wanting a hot cop mixed into the pack. Plus, it had Raymand in it so even more hotness.
Male Shifters lose control of their enraged beasts and attack anyone/anything around them. Jaiden, a police warden finds out that a dark witch is responsible and tries to find her. But this is not his only problem. He found his mate in human Mya, but she has trouble with her ex-boyfriend, who returns for money and threatens her physically. Jaiden is just in time to prevent the worst.
A fast-paced story with quite some action on two fronts. Entertaining and enjoyable.

I felt this book was really good. You have Mya who left home, with Flynn who is a wolf. Once in a new state Flynn shows his true colors. Jaiden is a police officer, who has shown up for police calls. He felt something for her, but is she his mate? We also have a witch causing problems for the shifter community. Can Jaiden protect Mya? Can he find this witch? What will Mya do if she is Jaiden’s mate?

This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. Officer Jaiden Barkly: A Zodiac Shifters Book: Gemini by McKayla Schutt is part of a of the Zodiac Shifter series. I really enjoyed this read. I mean, who doesn’t like a story about a hunky shifter finding his mate! This quick read is packed with action, angst, romance and spicy love scenes. Jaiden and Mya’s story reads as stand alone and offers a different twist on the werewolf change. It’s been a while since I read a McKayla Schutt read and I’m happy to say that true to her writing style, I’m still smiling!
This honest and voluntary review was made possible by reading a copy through Booksprout.
Finn, a wolf shifter and ex-boyfriend, broke into Mya Lindorth’s apartment, demanding they get back together. This wasn’t the first time. He claimed she owed him money or she would pay it back “another way”. His excuses for breaking in changed each time. He disgusted her and she wanted him gone. But he shoved her against the refrigerator and she couldn’t get out of his grasp! As he was about to rape her, the police knocked at the door, heard her scream, and rescued her. Officer Jaiden Barkly dragged Finn away and Officer Serine took her statement. Her mind begged Jaiden Barkly to stay with her, to keep her safe. At least she would be safe for tonight while Finn was locked up.
The next day was Jaiden’s day off. He decided to check on Mya since Finn would be released once he sobered up. As he pulled up to her apartment, he saw Finn’s wolf pushing the window open! He kicked the door open and a naked Finn was on top of the struggling female. Jaiden immediately shifted and attacked Finn, then shifted back to human form. As Mya struggled to stand up, head spinning, she touched him and imprinted! She was Jaiden’s mate! Finn had knocked her hard to the ground and her head was bleeding. Jaiden started to help her to the couch and she passed out as he carried her to his vehicle and took her to the pack nurse.
When Mya woke, Jaiden reached out to help her and she eagerly waited for the imprint to happen – but nothing and her heart sunk. She had been injured and unaware of their imprinting back at her apartment. Yet she felt so protected when he was near her. And his behavior looked so much like what a mate would do. Why didn’t they imprint?
Jaiden took her to the mall to buy some clothes since he would have her stay with him for a few days with Finn on the loose. Jaiden would be talking to Raymand, the local alpha, soon about Finn. But in the parking lot, a polar bear was rampaging. There was some sort of chemical Jaiden smelled and it seemed to keep forcing the bear to stay shifted. The human police shot not only the bear but Jaiden who was trying to help calm the bear. It was Mya’s presence that seemed to calm him and he shifted back, telling her that her mate would probably appreciate it if she stepped away now. She really wished Jaiden was hers.
At home, Jaiden worried. He had heard Mya tell the polar bear they were not mates. He knew humans could reject their wolf mates out of disbelief. But if she ran and didn’t complete their bond within three days, he’d lose his wolf, his job, and his pack – and be alone forever. Would she accept him? Between phone calls and doorbells interrupting them, he still had not told her they had imprinted.
One of Jaiden’s team called him to report finding 5 other cases where shifters went crazy like the polar bear and all had something metallic and magical on their fur. They needed to find the witch responsible for this.
When they ordered food delivered for dinner, the woman who arrived was a witch and psychic whose eyes rolled back as she immediately spouted off a Zodiac warning. She interpreted for them: ‘A pup will send the Cancer packing, but the longer you delay, the more confidence he gains.’ It means Finn is going to keep trying to get to Mya unless she and Jaiden have a child – because just becoming mates won’t deter him. Then the witch/psychic wished them a goodnight and left. Mya looked at Jaiden and asked if they were really mates – and he kissed her in a way that gave her no doubt about the answer she dreamed of!
When another shifter went crazy and Jaiden and the Alpha had to go take care of it, the Alpha’s mate took Mya shopping and then back to Jaiden’s house. Someone – the Alpha’s mate identified her as a female — had broken in through the back door and left a dead cat in the sink with a message for Mya to leave! Who could now be threatening Mya’s life? Will Jaiden be able to keep her safe when an unknown killer is stalking her?
Wow, tons of suspense in this one! From the first page, the action starts and doesn’t slow down. Jaiden and Mya have to deal with Finn, a witch turning shifters vicious, and a mystery female out to get Mya! Danger is everywhere! Jump into this wild story line and enjoy the mystery as they try to find out where the next threat will be coming from!
Fantastic
The story is a quick one. Officer Jaiden and Mya are attracted to the other but for some reason or another are hesitant to act on that attraction. For one, Mya is trying to get rid of her ex who abused her; two, Officer Jaiden is a cop on her case and has a bit of an issue about imprinting. Looks like, Chance took it from them and he imprinted on her but she doesn’t remember it. And there comes the trouble from their exes and the trouble from the witch who was wrecking havoc in their community. At the end, everything I was A-okay and they finally completed the bond.
All that in this quick short story but it sure is fun reading it.

This is a well written action packed story from page one right to the end. The author brings strong characters with a hot chemistry and tells the story in the dual POV, which I love as it gives both of their perspectives. The story moves quickly and smoothly and I enjoyed reading. Another great read to the Zodiac Shifters. I loved and would recommend this book.
