Lola Gabriel’s District Shifters and Sanmere series continues in SHIFTING TRUTHS. The main characters have so much chemistry and physical attraction you could get burned in the steam. You’ll quickly become engaged is this well written storyline that flows smoothly from the start to the end.

Years ago Rachel was kidnapped and, for some reason, released, but not before being forcibly turned into a bear. Since then she believes all bears are evil.

When she meets Bastian, a stranger, a visitor from out of town, she instantly feels a strong attraction to him. It’s been so long since she’s dared to be with someone, anyone. She has a one-night stand with him, one she’ll never forget, but can’t repeat because of her bear. A few months later, she finds out that not only is she pregnant but that Bastian was the alpha bear that ordered her kidnapped and turned into a bear. Now she must move and go into hiding before he returns.

There’s not a lot of fast action in this story, instead it’s a love story that slowly builds from a chance encounter to mated love.

The story is well written,moves quickly and smoothly and is an entertaining read. I loved and highly recommend this book.

Lola Gabriel has written a 5-star book that has Rachel dealing with being a bear shifter and running away from the Alpha of the district she lives in. Rachel was walking home when she saw a blind man and she stopped and asked if he was okay. The man tells her his name is Lewis and that he is lost and looking for the Bellevue Hotel. He tells her he is there to see his friend who owns it and fixing it up so that he can open it back up. Rachel tells him she is going that way and she will take him there. When they get there, Rachel realizes too late that Lewis is not blind as he comes at her with a white cloth. She wakes up strapped to a table and Lewis walks in and tells her what he is going to do to her and why. Lewis attacks her and after he gets a call telling him that they no longer want her and she is to be set free. Bastian found out that it was his father who was the one to tell Lewis to turn Rachel. Now 10 years later Rachel has never shifted into her bear. She is sitting at a cafe having a cup of coffee when she looks out the window and sees a man across the street and thinks he is good looking. She turns around for a few seconds and then when she looks again he is not there anymore. The next thing she knows is the man is sitting at the table next to hers. They start talking and he tells her his name is Bastian and she tells him hers is Rachel. There is an attraction between them and Rachel learns that Bastian is on his way to the airport to go back home. He wants to spend time with Rachel so he changes his plans. They spend the night together and the next morning he leaves without getting Rachels’s last name or phone number or her his. One month later Rachel is getting sick every morning and she takes a pregnancy test and it comes back positive. She remembers the place where she first saw Bastian and she goes there asking for his phone # but Brady won’t give it to her. She asks Brady “if she gave him her number would he call Bastian and have him call her”? He tells her yes. Brady tells Rachel that with Bastian being the Alpha he is busy. Brady calls Bastian and tells him about Rachel and that she is pregnant and a bear. When Rachel hears that Bastian is an Alpha she knows she is wrong about him and decides not to let him know about the baby. She goes home and knows that she has to leave. She makes arrangements with her boss to transfer to another office in another city in the state. Bastian calls Rachel’s phone but there is no answer or she doesn’t call him back. He has Brady go by her house to see if she is there but no one is. After about a week he sends out an email to people he trusts with Rachel’s information and tells them to be on the lookout for her. Bastian is talking to Oscar about pack business and after he is done he asks if Oscar has anything else he tells his yes that he was going to send him a picture and it looks like Rachel. When Bastian gets the picture he can’t believe that after all this time he has found her. He is told where she lives and the route she takes to work. He is in the park the next day waiting on Rachel. This is where he sees his daughter for the first time and scares her nanny. Rachel and Bastain see each other at the same time and at first Rachel freezes but then she turns around and runs. It takes Bastian a few minutes to catch her and when he does, he asks “why did she run from him”? She doesn’t tell him. He asks her to go and have a coffee with him so they can talk and at first she doesn’t want to but he tells her that he is not there to hurt her so she agrees to go. This is when Bastian finds out what happened to her all those years ago.
Will Rachel give Bastian a chance to get to know Stephanie?
Can Bastian prove to Rachel that he won’t hurt her?
This was a wonderful book and I would recommend this book to anyone.

The truth is not always what you think. Rachel is kidnapped by a Matchmaker, turned into a bear shifter by him and then let go. The buyer didn’t want her. She doesn’t question it just runs and for the next eight years lives life as a human, ignoring her bear and never turning. Then she meets a man who she is so attracted to she has a one night stand with him, not knowing he is a bear shifter. When she finds out she’s pregnant she tracks down someone who know him and asks him to give Bastian her phone number. But as she is leaving she finds out Bastian is the alpha of the District, the same alpha who originally contracted for her from the Matchmaker. Terrified and believing Bastian s a monster who has women kidnapped and forcibly change into shifters, she runs. When Bastian figures out she’s pregnant he notifies all bear shifters to look for her. Rachel has to keep herself and her baby safe because if he finds her she doesn’t know what he will do. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review

This was interesting. Rachel was turned against her will and ran when she was let go. She thought st the time that all bears were evil. She slowly learned that was not the case. When she has a one night stand, she turns up pregnant and thinking the alpha that got her pregnant was the one that had her turned, she ran again. Two years later, Bastian finds her and they straighten things out, but not before he tries to right the wrong that was done to her. The book was a fast read and very entertaining.

A “blind” man pretending to be lost so Rachel would help him get to where he was going, then when they there he chloroformed her. She woke up strapped to a bed in a cell, Lewis told her that had the blood to become a shifter and he took her to sell her to be a mate to someone that girl children. So Lewis turned her into a bear but then he gets a call getting paid and told to let the girl go, but what they didn’t know is that she was already turned to a bear. She moved around a bit as she wasn’t aging so no one got suspicious, then one night she had a night stand, she thought with a human until she got pregnant because a human and a bear can’t have children. She went to find Bastian and found that he was the alpha Lewis told her that the alpha had him do to her what he did so she ran. 2 years later someone spotted her from an email description and Bastian went to talk to about being in his daughter’s life, Rachel never had let her bear out for 10 years but the Bear came out to defend Bastian and get him out the cell that Lewis put him in. She finally accepted that her and Bastian were mates so everything turned out great! Waiting for the next book Lola!

I’ve read a lot of books written by Lola Gabriel; she has done a great job at writing another good book; she is one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of books her books.

The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.

I loved the chemistry between the characters.
