Publisher's summary

Carnival, canals, and cunning enemies...Do you dare enter Venice’s shifter side?

Ten years ago, lion shifter Tony Pelligrini was forced to flee Venice after being framed for a murder he didn’t commit. But now, a mysterious force is drawing him back. Is it the feeling of a ticking time bomb only he can defuse? Or, is it the call of destiny, promising true love?

Wetlands ecologist Cara Alari would rather stand knee-deep in mud than dress up for a fancy ball. But in the course of one crazy carnival night, a family she loves is imperiled, and she is unwittingly drawn into a dangerous world of power, politics, and royal intrigues.

Before Cara knows it, she’s putting her black belt to use as a bodyguard - and teaming up with a hunky lion shifter straight out of her dreams. The chemistry between them is off the charts, but there’s no time for amore. Somewhere in Venice, an enemy lurks, targeting the royal shifter elite. Because carnival masks can disguise faces - and evil intentions - nothing is as it seems. All Cara can be sure of is that her heart - and a young woman’s life - are at risk.

Anna Lowe’s Fire Maidens: Book seven in Billionaires & Bodyguards series

Danger lurks over Europe, where a ruthless dragon clan plots to seize power in the grandest, most glamorous cities. The guardians of old have summoned a new generation of shifter heroes to protect the castles, cathedrals, and cobblestoned streets of their ancestral homes - and to seek out the last of the Fire Maidens, women coveted by the dark lords for their royal blood. Those women are absolutely off-limits to the young warriors tasked with protecting them. But destiny, of course, has other ideas.

A series of sizzling paranormal romances with adult content. Dragons, wolves, lions, and more! Each story is a pause-resister packed with action, emotion, and romance! No cliff-hangers. If you like smoldering hot shape-shifters, military heroes, royal intrigue, and a hint of magic, you'll love these books.

Join these strong heroines and their alpha heroes in atmospheric locales filled with danger and suspense!

WONDERFUL SERIES

Love, adventure, trials and tribulations lie in wait for these special people trying to do the right thing by Venice. I just love being taken to the wonderful cities and enjoy the budding romance while good battles evil. The strong confident women and the swoon worthy hero's will keep you glued to the pages just like I was when l read the ebook. This audible version really breathes life into those scenes, the narrator does a great job of this feel good paranormal adventure romance. I also recommend the whole series.

Fire Maidens: Venice

I was so excited when I found out that a new Fire Maidens audiobook was released and dove right in! Who are we to question destiny and what plans it may have for us? In this book these two do exactly that, but destiny cannot be denied. The action and love in this book was great and now I am begging for more!

Fire Maidens: Venice

Fire Maidens: Venice is book 7 of Anna Lowe’s popular Billionaire & Bodyguards series! This is Tony and Cara’s story and it features fated mates, a fantastic plot, vivid scenery, and lots of drama and suspense! I loved it!

Tony was falsely accused of a crime and forced to flee Venice, the place he loves the most in the world. When he finds himself back there, it’s surreal. Things get real interesting when me meets Cara, a wetland ecologist. He is intrigued with her. That interest ramps up a notch when a mutual friend needs protection and Cara and Tony are tasked with the job. They are up for the challenge.

I love how this story developed. It flowed so smoothly and I was captivated throughout. Filled with special times as well as drama and suspense, this book has it all! Tony and Cara wear their hearts on their sleeves-not only for their causes, but for each other too. I especially enjoyed the vivid description of the scenery of where they visit! I felt like I was there!

Anna Lowe has given us another great book to her series and I highly recommend you read them all! With Kelsey Osborne doing the narration, you won’t be disappointed!!

Exceptional book

Another thrilling book by Anna Lowe. Tony the lion shifter accused of a crime he didn’t commit and Cara the wetlands ecologist take us on an exciting adventure that will have you unwilling to stop your audible book. Truly a enjoyable book. I was gifted this book as an arc. This is my honest review.

Cara and Tony

This time it's the turn of the Lions to be the centre of attention. Cara and Tony's story is one I really enjoyed, not that I don't always enjoy Anna Lowe's work but this one was different - why you might ask? Well, it's different because Tony was forced to flee his home in Venice when he was accused and found guilty, without a trial I might add, of murder. But after ten years away his instincts have compelled him to return to Venice despite knowing that if he is recognised it could mean his death.

Whilst attending a masked event he meets Cara Alari, a beautiful ecologist who is passionate about saving Venice from further decay and destruction. But before they can act on the attraction they both feel, there's an attempt to kidnap someone close to Cara. Tony knows that he can't stand by and do nothing to stop the kidnapping but if he gets involved his identity is sure to be revealed which could mean he's sentenced to death or worse. But his honour means he must help and so both he and Cara fight together, oh I forgot to mention Cara is no dainty flower, she's tall, well built and strong. She's also good at self-defence, and together they foil the plot but as he knew he would be, Tony's recognised, arrested and taken before the Guardians.

Fortunately, Tony is recognised by someone who was there ten years ago, someone who can clear his name and restore his family's honour. After which he and Cara are asked to guard Fiorina the new Fire Maiden of Venice who turns out to be the girl they just saved from being kidnapped, she's also the daughter of the man he was accused of killing ten years ago and the girl he carried to the safety of her mother's waiting arms.

Tony and Cara are appointed as bodyguards to Fiorina but in order to keep her safe they will have to find out who ordered her father's murder and her kidnapping, are they dealing with one person or two? Are those events connected? Why is the new Firemaiden so unlike all the other Fire Maidens?

What follows is an exciting story full of drama, intrigue, chemistry and love, this is a wonderful addition to this series as destiny works it's magic again. But this time there's an even bigger surprise in store for us, but that's enough from me, no more spoilers you will just have to download this wonderful tale and find out the answers first hand.

The book Is wonderfully narrated by the super talented Kelsey Osborne who does an incredible job of bringing all of the characters to life.

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

A great Read!

I really did enjoy this story. I was very surprised around every turn. The characters were so real it felt like I was right there with them. The scenery was so breath taking that I could imagine it picture perfect. I loved the in depth description of every scene. I don’t want to give away any of the story so read it for yourself and travel to Venice and ride the streets of water and enjoy the wonderful story telling!

Entertaining and romantic!

Narrator does a good job! She’s the one that has done all the previous books in this series, and she always give a clear, crisp, and good quality performance. Enjoyable listen.

Loving this series!! Lion shifter Cara is one of my favorite heroines from this series! She kicks butt! I’m not a fan of damsels, and Cara is definitely not one. Plus, I love that she wants to save ecosystems. Lion shifter Tony is awesome too! He’s so honorable. Sweet and passionate connection between them. Tony has been falsely accused of a crime in Venice, so he’s been incognito for about 10 years and hasn’t returned to Venice. Despite the danger of returning, there’s something calling to Tony in Venice; he doesn’t know what it is, but he just knows that’s where he needs to be. Some very shady things are happening in Venice, but luckily, Tony and Cara end up on the same path. Cara and Tony end up being bodyguards for a damsel type of girl that is in danger. Love the Venice setting, love the action! Entertaining, fun read! Excited for the next book!!

Is fighting Fate futile?

I must admit I absolutely love this series. I like how Anna pulls in the next hero into her story giving us a slight preview into what may be coming.

Cara Alari has always loved Venice, and as a Wetlands Ecologist she is trying to keep- the city from sinking beneath the waves. Her landlord convinces her to attend a ball during the famous Carnival within the city. When she got home from the wetlands all she wanted to do is just curl up and relax, but she get ready for this ball.

Tony Pelligrini is an ex-soldier from the French Foreign Legion, after running from false murder charges. He has felt pulled to the city, is it time for him to give in or can he clear his name.

The pair meet at the Carnival Ball, and manage to save someone who is important to the guardians. They get roped into playing bodyguard together, but can they solve the mystery before time is up, while keeping their charge safe?

I did receive a free copy of this audio, but Anna Lowe and her narrators have knocked this one out of the park. I doubt you will regret listening to this book.
