Super great collection and series!

This collection is great! 2 full books and a novella. Loved each one! Narrator did a good job too; I’d recommend listening. Great series!

Salvation - 4 rating

Love Anna Lowe's writing! I'm always excited when I read one of her books! Before reading this book, make sure to read the previous books! Mainly the book right before this one because it features a storyline that continues into this book, so definitely check that one out first! This book is Anna and Todd's story. Anna, who is the cousin of Sarah from the previous book, and has always felt like her cousin is alive despite what those around her think, so she sets out in search of her cousin, but she finds out a whole lot more than she ever expected. Todd, a bear shifter, who is the cousin of Soren from the previous book, hasn't been having a very easy life lately. He was severely injured during an attack, and when Destiny leads him to Soren and Sarah's doorstep, he finds out some surprising things that further complicate his life, but when he sees Anna, things start looking up for him, but he doesn't feel worthy of her, and there is a lot that Anna doesn't know. Todd and Anna are really sweet with each other, and I love how sure Anna is in how she feels about Todd. Some hot moments between the two! There's still the possible danger of the "Pure" group hunting down the shifters that mix with human and other types of shifters to add suspense and action to the story, which is always entertaining and fun to read. There's also some personal drama between Todd and Soren and Sarah, which isn't my favorite storyline, but is still an interesting one. I felt bad for Anna at times, and I was really hoping something would work out for her a little differently, and come to think of it, for Todd too, but in the end, I was okay with how it turned out. This is a heartfelt, hopeful story! Looking forward to the next book!

Deception - 5 rating

Another awesome story from Anna Lowe! I've read about 6-8 books from Anna Lowe, and have loved all of them! She does a really good job of creating an interesting story with passion and great characters. Deception can be read as a standalone, but it does feature characters from previous books, so you may want to read them first; plus they are great too, so no hardship there! In Deception, Summer, a wolf shifter, is dealing with some guilt from unintentionally helping out some bad guys, so she's trying to prove herself to the pack she is staying with. Drew, a bear shifter, has ties to the pack Summer is trying to impress, and feels a connection with Summer, but before Summer and Drew can really bond, Summer is tasked with going into a dangerous situation to discover important information. Summer and Drew have some hot times! Drew is beyond adorable, and I love how sweet he is! I love the bear shifter characteristics! They are too cute! Summer and Drew have some sexy times in the wild, which were super steamy! I find all of Anna Lowe's books entertaining, and Deception didn't disappoint! It had some mystery, which added some nice suspense, and there's the continuing storyline of shifter purity, which I enjoy seeing how that story plays out, and there's a bit of action too. Great shifter series!

Celebration - 5 rating

This is so cute and sweet! We get to take quick looks at each of the couples from the Blue Moon Saloon series during Christmas time, and I loved all of them! Make sure to read all of the previous books in this series first, so you get the full enjoyment of this book. Definitely a wonderful read for any fan of this series! It's so great to see each of the couple enjoying their happily ever afters, and seeing the pack/clan all together! Great read, and I have loved this whole series!

Lived it

I enjoyed all 3 books. Each one was exciting and leaving me wanting more.

Great ending to the series

Such a great narration throughout this series! Kelsey Osborne voice and tone was perfect! Anna Lowe has a great creative streak when writing shifter romances. You have the fighting of a bad clan of shifters attacking and the romance igniting between mates.

Wonderful Collection

A great collection, a truly enjoyable listen.

Salvation -I love this series, I have read all of them and listened to most of them, this is a fantastic series and I would recommend listening to them in the correct order to get the most from them. Anna Lowe did not disappoint with this one, this story has everything, love, forgiveness, excitement, drama, danger, sadness as well as some very hot sex!

This story features characters we have met before as well as two new characters Anna who is Sarah's cousin whilst Todd is Soren's their story was told in Redemption (Blue Moon Saloon Book 3). They have both lost family members at the hands of the Blue Bloods, a group of maniacal racists intent on killing any shifters who mate with a different species or human. They are both drawn to The Blue Moon Saloon by some inner compulsion, they even arrive on the same day. But is this meeting their first? There is an almost instant attraction when they meet but will it be enough to breach their walls? They both feel unworthy due to their pasts but they are perfect for each other.

There were places in the story when I cried and had to take a break from listening, Anna's writing is just so good the emotions she can get across in a few words - well I won't belabour the point, she is a fantastic writer in my opinion. The drama and danger caused by the Blue Bloods strike a chord with me when I watch the news and see just how horrid some people are. I know shifters aren't real don't worry, no what I mean is hatred and bigotry towards people/things which are different from themselves.

I loved the characters their depth and the way they all interact with each other, Anna and Todd's story had some twists due to misunderstandings but the love and the palpable chemistry between them was so well written, their path to their HEA was an emotional one indeed.

Deception - This is Summer and Drew's story we met Summer, a wolf shifter, towards the end of Salvation, Anna and Todd's story, she was with the Blue Bloods having been an unwitting helper in their evil scheme to rid the world of any shifters whose blood wasn't pure!

Drew Kovacs, a bear shifter, has travelled to the Southwest answering the call for help from his cousin Sorin, the Alpha of the Blue Moon Clan. On arrival he meets Summer and is instantly drawn to her, his bear recognizing that she is his fated mate. But before they can get too serious Summer is asked to undertake a dangerous mission. She must go back to the Blue Blood Pack to ascertain if the danger they pose is over with the death of the White Brothers, or if other members of that pack intend to carry on with their murderous rampage.

Drew was against the plan, he couldn't believe his cousin would send his mate into danger to get information. She might be a wolf, but she wasn't a Blue blood, and she didn't believe in their values. But Summer felt that this wonderful second chance she'd been given by the Blue Moon Clan was something she had to earn, so when the chance came to go and spy on her old pack she volunteered to go. She was willing to do anything to protect her mate and her new clan.

What she didn't expect to happen when she returned to her old pack was to attract the interest of the would-be new Alpha Thomas. Could he be trusted, was he there to clean house or to carry on the old ways? She also catches the eye of Mett, the son of the old Alpha who believes their cause is righteous and intends to carry on his father's work.

There is so much more I could tell you but that would involve too many spoilers, so I'm not going to tell you any more. What I will say is that this story did not disappoint. The characters are wonderfully well drawn with incredible palpable chemistry between them, their story has a lot of angst, drama and action but most importantly, as with all of Anna Lowe's stories we have the deep and abiding love between mates. The resolution of this exciting tale brought together again many old friends from the Twin Moon Pack.

Celebration - This book brings to an end two wonderfully exciting series, Twin Moon Ranch and Blue Moon Saloon as we get to Celebrate Christmas with the characters we have come to know and love. We catch up on what has happened to them and find out about a few surprises/gifts fate has in store for them now that their hard-won peace, after the defeat of the Blue Bloods, is secure.


The narration of these books is, once again, performed by the incredibly talented Kelsey Osborne who always produces a stellar performance she and Anna make an incredible team.

I was given this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.

Great series (includes two novels & one novella)!

This book includes two full novels and one novella, all of which are excellent!

Salvation - Anna and Her Bear
Ms. Lowe created a great addition to the Blue Moon Saloon series and I can't wait for the next book! We get some answers from the previous book. Anna was looking for her cousin, Sarah, and met a severely wounded Todd. There was an almost immediate attraction with him and Anna when they first met, even though he was in bear form and Anna did not know he was a shifter. Todd was on death’s door and Anna stayed with him. Todd knew that Anna was his mate. They both end up in Blue Moon and end up sharing a room. Todd was related to Soren. It was a very happy reunion for Anna and Sarah but even though Soren knew Todd was his son, little Teddy’s biological father, he still welcomed him. Anna and Todd were very getting close. I felt so sorry for her when she found out the truth about little Teddy and I also felt sorry for Todd not being able to raise his own baby but I think he did the right thing by letting Sarah and Soren keep and raise him. I think in Todd’s mind, there was no question this would be the case. There were some very, very emotional moments in this book.

When Anna found out about Todd fathering the baby, she ran. In her desire to get away, she was tricked into thinking she was needed to assist one of the Voss mates and she wasn't even there in the forest in which Anna was drawn. The “purity now” villains forced another woman to call out to Anna. Anna was surrounded by 6 or 7 of the wolves who want race purity (wolves with wolves, bears with bears, etc.). There were some great suspense scenes where I was on the edge of my seat hoping that Anna got help in time. Awesome fight scene in which Anna did her best to defend herself and her rescuer!

The ending was so sweet and I hope Anna and Todd grow old together and enjoy their happily ever after.

Deception - Summer and Drew
This book was so good! Before I knew it, it was ending. When Drew sees Summer, he knows right away that she is his mate (she can feel it too). Summer used to be part of the rogues who want purity (no wolf/bear mating only wolf/wolf) although she did not agree with them. Summer escaped to Blue Moon Saloon where she is accepted. Soren’s pack needed someone to infiltrate the rogue den and Summer volunteers much to Drew’s horror. Summer would not look suspicious since she used to be one of them. As with Ms. Lowe’s other books, the bad guys are really bad and this book has a bad woman, Gretchen. She made you want to b!tch-slap her most of the time. Soren receives an anonymous message asking for help at the wolf’s den. No one knows who it is from and they were afraid it might be a set up. Drew goes on that assignment. Of course, Drew and Summer meet up for good times during the fight for the new alpha. I like when Summer drugged Met (one of the villains who wanted to take her as his mate), and she left to meet Drew. While he was drugged, she should have bashed in his head. He was horrible!

This book kept me guessing who sent the message for help. It was interesting to find out who sent it. There was a wonderful ending to this book and I highly recommend reading the whole series.

Celebration – Great holiday celebration
This was a quick, fun, sexy listen. It was wonderful to catch up with the characters from Blue Moon Saloon. There will be another new baby soon in addition to little Teddy, who is growing so fast. There were heartwarming scenes, especially with Anna and Todd sledding with their two babies. It was funny when Drew was polishing Summer's toenails. I loved the holiday celebration when they got together and the heartfelt speech that Soren gave at the dinner. This was a nice feel good book. Listen to all of the books in the Blue Moon Saloon series to fully enjoy this book. You will not be disappointed.

Ms. Lowe and Kelsey Osborne make a great team. Between Ms. Lowe’s writing and Kelsey’s narration, these books are winners! I received this free copy audiobook and have voluntarily left this review.

Blue Moon Saloon Volume 2

Salvation

The long awaited continuation of the series has finally arrived and I couldn’t be happier. Love, love, love this series of wonderful shifters. So beautifully written and narration is the perfect match. Now I must wait for more!

Celebration

This is the perfect story that wraps all the couples in the Blue Moon Saloon series up in a pretty little bow. You get to see them all with their happy ending and turmoil is in the past. I love it when an author gives us a peek of what their character’s happy ending look like. Great writing and just as great narration.

Deception

Perfection! I love everything about the Blue Moon Saloon and this book is the icing on the cake. Anna Lowe is quickly becoming my favorite shifter author. If you like shifter books then this is the one for you!

FANTASTIC SERIES. FANTASTIC CHARACTERS

Always my go to author for romantic adventure shifters stories.
Guaranteed to make you smile and feel good.

If you have read nothing by Ms Lowe before, read t

Whilst Blue Moon Saloon series started as a spin off from Wolves of Twin Moon ranch it has earned its own accolades as a series. The characters we are meeting and the stories we are getting have enhanced Ms Lowes author status. AUDIBLE BOX SET Narration is very enjoyable. Blue Moon series were my very first audible book and Salvation is one of the most emotionally heart-rending books I have ever read or listened too. The humour, sadness and emotion really do come across in the audible version. Wonderful when driving long trips and if busy doing jobs around the house to have these to listen to. Makes the time pass quickly. You cannot go wrong with this author and box sets are a great way to keep a series together for easy access. Two very emotionally gripping stories that hold your attention till the end, all nicely rounded up in the final story with everyone together celebrating their lives and happiness. Still cry my eyes out listening to Salvation. I have read and reviewed these books and included those reviews below but this audible set was kindly gifted to me by the author. 4 - SALVATION BOOK REVIEW If you are a fan of Ms Lowe you will love this. If you have read nothing by her before, read this series, you will not regret it. Anna Lowe has done a superb job telling a difficult story. Very well written and a real page turner. I had such mixed emotions when I had finished reading this book that for the first time ever, I delayed writing a review to let myself think about how I felt. This was a story that was difficult to tell where it was going to go and how it would end. Not the easiest of situations to deal with. The angst, guilt, depression and anger felt by Todd and his bear have been given such clarity you feel his emotions as strongly as he did. Todd is such a strong, damaged man/shifter who gives the greatest gift of all to his cousin Soren and his mate Sarah. Instead of causing problems he accepts a difficult situation with strength and character. I cannot even put myself in his shoes as to such a decision, my heart was breaking for Todd. His depression was understandable but I loved how Todd's bear kept chipping in with advice, he was a real sweetie with a sense of humour. A good balance against Todd’s pain and feelings. As his bear said, I hurt too. I really liked Anna, her past situation was sad but she was a strong compassionate person with an inbuilt sense of knowing when something wasn’t true or someone was not trustworthy. She knew Sarah was still alive no matter what anyone else said and that Emmett was wrong. I just wish she had told someone about her fears. But the others have to take some blame. If they had told Anna what was going on she would have twigged that she had seen Emmett and his following her was a distinct possibility so everyone would have been more on guard. Saying that, Emmett's trickery was very good and while I was screaming at Anna not to believe the text messages and stay in the vehicle, that is easy for me to do, like watching a horror movie and knowing something bad is going to happen. I must say I hate the Blue Bloods with a passion, anyone who would even think of using or hurting babies and children is just the lowest of the low and a special place in hell awaits them. Loved the ending and I must say I am glad they went back to Montana, a fresh start and some distance is just what is needed for them. Whilst Todd will always have a special spot in his heart for Teddy. I believe he will be able to separate things into a good place and focus on his mate and children. One of my favourite books by this author and I love everything Ms Lowe has written. This is my honest review of this book which I read through Kindle Unlimited. 5 - DECEPTION BOOK REVIEW Whilst Blue Moon Saloon series started as a spin off from Wolves of Twin Moon ranch it has earned its own accolades as a series. The characters we are meeting and the stories we are getting have enhanced Ms Lowes author status. In this 5th book it is poor Summers turn to find happiness. Summer belonged to a delusional cultish pack who, whilst preaching PURITY for shifters (as in no mixed shifter pairs) didn't believe Fate had it right in choosing mates. They were the lowest of the low as they killed for the enjoyment, even children were not safe. Seems Fate choosing your mate was not good enough for them. Drew, we did not really know prior to this book but he turned out to be not only the biggest sweetie but also one of the biggest, fiercest bears we have met. Loved the scene at the end when Drew turned up to save Summer and the cavalry arrived. So glad to have the last of the Blue Bloods killed, really was no loss to the gene pool and maybe now we can have more happiness for our mixed clan. This is my honest review of this book which I read through Kindle Unlimited. 6 - CELEBRATION BOOK REVIEW Once again Ms Lowe gives you a book that just makes you feel. I loved the bits of time we spent with everyone from the Blue Moon Saloon, even Todd and Anna have a part too even though not physically present. The feelings of love, loss and joy come across so strongly. A pure joyous pleasure to read and nice to have Twin Moon Ranch couples included at the end. I was kindly given this book to read for an honest review but have purchased it as well.

I love this series. I know you will love it too.

Kelesy's voice is perfect for Anna's books. You will hear her in your head every time you read one. Lol. (Or maybe that is just me.)

Salvation

This book continues the great stories of the Blue Moon Saloon and the humans and shifters that live and work there.
Todd is a bear shifter that has lived through some pretty bad stuff. While trying to protect his cousin's mate he is beaten and burned. He has almost totally lost his hearing and has one hand that doesn't work like it should due to being crushed. He was found in his bear form and would have died if not for the beautiful voice that whispered things to him as he lay in pain. He doesn't understand why he could hear this voice clearly when he could hear very little else. When the owner of the voice allows him to escape the cage he has been placed in he begins to roam, heading for something he only hears in his head.
Anna has come to Montana to look for her cousin who has gone missing after her home was burned. The local authorities believe that Sarah died in the fire, but Anna doesn't believe it. When she hears about the wounded bear found at the scene of the fire she has to go and see for herself. She is drawn to his beautiful eyes and stays and talks to him trying to convince him to live.
I am not going to tell you any more. You may know who Todd is from the previous book in the series, which also featured Sarah. You do not need to have read the other books to enjoy this one, but you really should read them all as they are great.


Deception

Anna has done it again with this installment of Blue Moon Saloon and its sexy shifters. Although the books in this series follow each other, you will have no problem reading it as a standalone. I would advise you to read them all though, cos they are all that good!
If you read the last installment then you met Summer. She is a wolf shifter that got into bad company and didn't realize it until it was almost too late. Now she is staying with the shifters that rescued her, and on top of that she has found her fated mate in Drew, a bear shifter and cousin of the clan's leader. If only she didn't feel so unworthy of his love.
When the clan decides they need a spy to find out if the Blue Blood purist group is really done for, Summer knows it is her chance to prove herself to Drew and the others. She bravely volunteers to put herself back into the midst of the pack that spawned the Blue Bloods.

Celebration

Catch up with all your favorite characters from the Blue Moon Saloon series as they celebrate Christmas. From spending the morning in bed together to sledding with the kids, all the fated couples are making the most of their time off whether they are in the desert of Arizona or the snowy forests of Montana. The love shines through as everyone from bears to wolves works to make their first Christmas together the best it can be. Memories of the past can't dim the promised brightness of the future. They made it through the hard times and now they are ready to celebrate the great things the future has to offer.

Blue Moon Saloon 2

Salvation-Although this book is number four in the series, it can be read as a standalone. However, I feel you are better served by reading the prior books to give you more of an understanding of the storyline and the world in which they live.

This is the story of a bear shifter, Todd, and Anna. Anna knows deep in her soul her cousin is still alive after a fire decimated her home. And Todd… well he was hurt in said fire and can’t understand how he made it out alive.

This was told quite differently than the other books in the series and I loved it! Anna goes on the hunt for clues about her cousin and after meeting Todd, they know they have met before, but can’t place where. They are instantly connected and no matter what they do, they just can’t stay away. It’s like a final missing puzzle piece clicking into place!

I really enjoyed their romance and everything going on around it. It grabs you by the heart and gives you a squeeze! I love the adventure and look forward to more books in the series to come!


Deception- This is a continuous storyline which started the Blue Moon Saloon series in book one. It can be read as a standalone, but I feel is it better read in order. This is Drew and Summer’s story.

Summer is a wolf shifter who had inadvertently helped a rival clan with nefarious causes. She wants to help right her wrongs and redeem herself with her new clan. It turns out what’s needed is a secret agent to go on a behind the scenes secret mission to gather facts.

Drew knows Summer is the one for him and he doesn’t care about her past. He just wants her to stay with him. He has a hard time with it, but he knows Summer is the right person for the job, so he has to let her go.
Definitely one of my faves in the series! I can’t wait for more!

Celebration-This is a finale of sorts for the Blue Moon Saloon crew! A Christmas holiday feast! Each couple in the series are featured, and we find out what they have been up to!

I loved everything about this book and meeting each of these couples on their journeys, has been inspiring! This book is the culmination of all their hard work and dedication. It shows what you can achieve with friends, love, and said hard work! It is such a feel good story, I smiled the whole book!
