Soulbound Shifters by Riley Storm

 








Soul Shift, The Wild Moon, As Darkness Falls and Fate Unbound

 

Soul Shift

I wanted my life to change. But not like this…

The first full moon after my twenty-first birthday should be a special occasion. My wolf will emerge and we’ll run with the pack for the first time. We’ll also become Soulbound, mated to another pack member for life. There’s a lot to look forward to as I move on to the next stage of my life.

But when the time comes for that very first shift, nothing is the way it should be. I’m afraid, and alone, without anyone to support me. A single comment from a vindictive ex about a past I never knew has brought my world crashing down.

I’m going to discover the truth, but first, I have to survive the Soulshift.

 

The Wild Moon

I’ll do whatever it takes to be free of him.

Eight months ago, my ex-boyfriend decided that if he couldn’t have me, then nobody could. What should have been the best night of my life was ruined. Stripped of friends, my parents, and denied a mate, my Soulshift was a disaster I didn’t see coming.

By now I should have been making my own family, instead I’m still searching for the one he destroyed. Once a month I slink back to my hometown for the Wild Moon. It sucks having to relive everything, but it’s better than being hunted by the pack leader for breaking his rules.

This time though, everything changes. When the Wild Moon finally shows me my mate, my last spark of hope dies. It’s him. The man who destroyed my life. There’s no way I’m letting that happen. Instead I’m leaving town for good, and while I’m at it, I’m going to find my parents. Even if rejecting the bond kills me.

Because anything is better than being Soulbound to him

 

As Darkness Falls

I should be free. Of him. Of everyone.

But I’m not. I’m still here. I’m still Soulbound. Just not to my ex. Now I’m bound to an ancient shifter god. He’s all I could want in a man. If I’d been allowed to choose him.

That’s not the only change however. I’m stronger. Faster. The others, they look to me for answers. I wish I had them. I’m making everything up as I go along, and I’m not sure what scares me more, the idea I might screw up, or the bigger question, the one that keeps me up at night.

What am I?

But among all the questions, I’ve learned something. The Alpha of my pack is majorly pissed at me. He still thinks he can control me. Only this time he’s going to try and do it by threatening the last person I have left from my old life.

It’s going to be his last mistake.

 

Fate Unbound

What am I?

The question gnaws at my insides, keeping me up at night. I was never human, not with shifter blood running through my veins. But now I know I’m more than that. I’ve touched magic. Some say I’m a goddess reborn, and that scares me almost as much as not knowing. I don’t want to be that. I want to be me. I want to forge my own destiny, not be forced into one.

But if I want to choose my path, I’ll need to deal with a few problems first. Starting with the god I just robbed who isn’t about to let me go. In fact, he’s sent a whole swarm of demons after me. Then, there’s the insane brother of the god who I’m Soulbound to. Oh, and to top it all off, my old Alpha has found a way to make himself immortal.

Everyone can control their powers, except for me. And it’s about time I changed that. Maybe then I can save my family and have the strength to be with the man I secretly long for. But can I unlock the secret inside of me before time runs out? Because the next Wild Moon is almost here, and when it comes, everything is going to change one last time…

 

My review:

I got the prequel novella free and was intrigued enough to purchase The Wild Moon and then ended up bingeing the rest of the series, It was an interesting ride and the author is continuing in this world. I am looking forward to Blood & Fangs.

This is a terrific take on the mythos of wolf shifters and a few other paranormals join the saga. I sucked it down like water after a 5k.
