Publisher's Summary

Shifters Forever takes place in the mountains of Bear Canyon Valley. Here we find the happy-ever-afters of a set of grizzly bears and their fated mates.

Protection Grizzly bear shifter Grant Waters wants one woman - Curvy Chelsea O'Reilly. He's wanted her since they met. Except he's worried his secret may be too much for her. It may be what sets her running. Curvaceous Chelsea works at a salon in Bear Canyon Valley. She gets butterflies when Grant's around. But she's got her own baggage. Plus, she thinks that Grant would be better off with the local, stunning, curvy, widowed-way-too-early Mae Forester.

Seduction Astra Evans is a curvy, delicious firebrand who thinks that the only good shifter is a dead shifter. With two exceptions, of course. ;) And Kane Ortiz is NOT one of those exceptions. Kane's a mountain-sized grizzly bear shifter who wants one thing: to avoid a group of shifters hunting him down. Except he's got a problem. Astra. That damned, sexy, hottie with the curves that don't end. Good luck, Kane. You're gonna need it.

Persuasion Mae's at it again! Kelsey Torrent is a curvy, delicious hottie who has only loved one man. Guilt pushed her away. Secrets kept her away. She agreed to work for Mae, getting the new B & B ready for a big wedding. She did NOT agree to work with the man who broke her heart. Bear shifter Teague Navarro has always been a one-woman kind of man. Why the hell did Mae call him work with the one woman he can't exchange a civil word with?

Invitation Sexy bear shifter Tanner Navarro has an invitation to the wedding. He's got an invitation to Bear Canyon Valley, but he doesn't have an invitation to sexy, curvy Marti's heart - or bed. Marti's secrets are life or death. Tanner and his bear know they're up to the job. Now they have to convince Marti.

Temptation Joe's got a problem. There's a curvy bear shifter trespassing in Bear Canyon Valley. And he's been charged with taking care of the matter.

Attraction
Second chances are great. Why doesn’t sexy shifter Jake Evans, known to the Bear Canyon Valley shifters as Doc, get it? Mae’s brewing up a storm. She’s successful at finding mates for all the shifters in the valley. All but one. The one she’s in love with.

Great box set, hope there is more!

This is a complete set of stories for the first paranormal series by Elle Thorne. There are many more spin-offs in the same world, but it all started with this one. It is also the first to be in audio. It's a great value for your credits.

The world building is vivid and believable. The mythology is important as it sets up a little of everything that is and will come to be in the future titles.

There are a few times I wish I could of had just one more chapter or an epilogue with details of something mentioned in the last chapter, but I believe that is by design. It may not be the current series, but it will eventually come full circle.

This was my first experience with this author, but I definitely want more. I have already purchased the next box set.

Meghan Kelly's performance was solid as always. Book #6 had more males in a conversation than I think she has voices for, but it wasn't too distracting. Normally her male to female ratio of voices is spot on.

I didn't notice any issues with the audio production. I listened at 1.00x speed.

Bad narration

Did not like the narrator. She did not act the parts and I never got invested in the stories.

Elle Thorn has written a fascinating shifter series.

I enjoy how she elevates the position of the shifter women. She goes into depths on all of the characters. We get to know them by their good traits and their foibles.

Get this love of a great story box set

This is a great box set. You get everything in one listen. I love love how Meghan Kelly always plays all the parts perfectly. Her range of different voices for all the different stories in this great box set.
The first one involves a bear shifter and the female he wants , who is his mate. She wants him also but she doesn’t know he’s a shifter and to top it off she has made her home in a shifter town. This story has lots of action
Book 2 involves Kane and Astral.
Astral had a bad experience with shifters , her parents were killed . Astral is under the impression that there are no more shifters where she made home in Bear caynon Vally . This are fighting sceans , rows between non pack bears and love.
Book 3 is fantastic
It involves a wedding of Grant and Chelsa . While the B&B is being renovated Kelsey sees Teagan who had her body remembering and getting steamy from the memories from the past do they get together or will the past interfere
Book 4 and 5 and 6 is just as fantastic

Meghan Kelly did justice to this box set. Her voice was fantastic, she really brought you into the bear shifter world. Love how she does the male parts even better then most males do

Awesome story

This story while a erotic has a great plot, well defined characters and good storyline with each follow on book being introduced in the previous one.
Highly recommended reading/listening.

Story good but narrator is not great

The storytellers voice is grating and annoying. She has very little infliction and voice changes are just not good.

I love this set

This set is great I enjoy listening to it over and over that is how much I like it hope there is more to this set to come.

Delays

Good stories. The only issue I had was long delays between chapters ending/ starting. The delays were so long that I often thought there was something wrong with the book. May have been a bad copy.
