I liked some more than others, but only one author got added to my “might buy more” list. None of the stories triggered an automatic binge buy. Spice level varies along with the chosen mythology of were culture. Kinda fun.

This is a story of Mai Fairchild – fox shifter, sister’s keeper, and bane of the local werewolf pack. In a world where different is dangerous, my sister and I must pretend to be human at all costs. Too bad I just lost the job that lets me live under the radar while putting food on my sister's plate. She came to localty where living cost is come under gang and they try to threatened her but she take them down, when a werewolf helped her.
Enter an enticing werewolf who offers enough cash to upgrade our diets from ramen noodles to salami if I join him on a magical hunt. But can I afford to accept the opportunity when the risk of working closely with every fox shifter's sworn enemy is so great. Th story is thriller and story became exciting when her sister security came to threat and they have to move fast to win against enemies and other magical stuff. Part one end here.

Rae has a secret that she can be coyote and wolf shifter. one she can’t allow any wolf pack to discover. But with an old enemy hot on her heels, she has no option but to trust Zack, the man from the wrong side of the tracks. Taking off on the back of Zack's Harley seems like good idea at first, but when she lowers her defenses for the captivating coyote shifter, she might just be risking it all.
The new she-wolf in town may be strictly off-limits, but Zack just can’t keep away. When the thrill of the chase gets his blood pumping in more ways than one, he’s ready to overstep every boundary and break every rule. Destiny says she’s his—but the pack’s ruling alpha says she belongs to another.
There’s more than meets the eye on Twin Moon Ranch, home to a pack of shapeshifting wolves willing to battle for life and love. Zack had a fair point and even Rae came back with his 750 cc Harley and they both decide to make there future according to there choice.

So far l have read Desert Hunt by Anna Lowe in this collection. This is what l think. The magic of Twin Moon Ranch comes alive in the shifters that live there and the visitors that sometimes get caught in the woven net of Destiny. The ancient past whispers to the lucky few and creates a mate bond made in heaven. Rae and Zack . Mates. This is their story and the background is set for many more of the ranch hands to have their own happy ending in books to come. Strong personalities, honest, goodhearted and dedicated, they go through trials and self discoveries in the beautiful Arizona desert in seach of happy ever after. Recommended!

This is a collection of five urban fantasy/paranormal romance novels featuring strong female characters, each of which is part of a series but can be enjoyed on its own. So far I’ve read the first two, so my rating is based on just those stories.
Wolf's Bane (Moon Marked Book 1) by Aimee Easterling
As always, Aimee Easterling reliably delivers fun shifter stories with exciting plots. This novel was suspenseful and so much fun! It features kitsune, one of my favorite paranormal creatures (one that doesn't get very much attention), as well as Ms. Easterling's delightful take on shifters. This is the first book in the Moon Marked series, but this story ends on a satisfying note, so don't be afraid of cliffhangers.
This was a relatively quick read that started with a great hook and effortlessly captured and held my interest. It was fast-paced with an exciting, action-filled plot that presented some unexpected twists as our heroine Mai struggled to protect her little sister from an increasing number of threats while also trying to track down a serial killer.
I really liked the characters in this book. Mai makes some frustrating decisions at times, but you can understand why she acts the way she does. She's under a lot of stress but remains quite likable. Her sister Kira is adorable, and I loved Gunner and his pack. I look forward to getting to know these characters better in subsequent books in this series!
Desert Hunt (Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch Prequel) by Anna Lowe
I enjoyed the romantic aspects of this shifter story and the often humorous descriptions of how these characters’ animalistic selves reacted to situations as contrasted with their human reactions. I would have loved to get to know them a bit better so I could better appreciate Zach’s mixed heritage and Rae’s secret. Note that this story includes some violence, foul language, and explicit sex scenes.
If you like urban fantasy, paranormal mystery/suspense, and paranormal romance, give this box set a try.
