This week I’m getting a little shifty. Why you ask? Well, that’s because the month of
August is rife with
sexy shifter releases! I’ve always been a fan of shifter stories but my favorites are have
always been
about dragon and wolf shifters.
Dragon shifters have become more prominent now following the likes of G.A. Aiken’s Dragon Kin
series. Whether set in a fantasy world or in this one, having an ancient creature like
that pop up in any
situation is bound to be a good story! There is so much mythology surrounding these giant
monsters
and depending on the world they live in, the author can integrate that into their
characters.
Wolf shifters are a little more traditional but no less enticing. Probably the most loved
of them all, wolf
shifters are the ones that most people gravitate to when they want to read a shifter
novel. I think
that’s because there are so many alluring factors with these creatures. Since a lot of
them travel in
packs, you can be sure there will be a lot of politics involved. Wolf shifters also tend
to be the most
alpha as it’s all about dominating others.
Most often than not, you’ll find a mating bond in a lot of shifter books. Having a mating
bond adds
that romantic element to the story. It makes it feel like the hero and heroine are
destined to be
together from the very beginning. If that isn’t swoonworthy then I don’t know what else
is!
So it’s easy to see why shifter stories are so fun to read! Are you a fan of shifter
stories? Do you
prefer dragon or wolf shifters? Do you have a favorite shifter character? Let me know in
the
comments! I hope you enjoy this week’s releases as are they are filled with loads of fun!
