Publisher's summary

Chosen as the Guardian of her Montana Shiftertown, wolf Shifter Rae Lyall is facing opposition - for no woman has ever been selected for this powerful position. Still adjusting to the new authority thrust upon her, Rae travels to train with Zander Moncrieff, a Shifter healer, tasked with teaching her about her new role and its responsibilities.

A polar bear Shifter, Zander wears no collar and follows no rules but his own. Rae finds him arrogant and demanding, yet compelling and intriguing. Zander has no wish to mate, but the sassy Guardian is drawing him out of his shell, stirring feelings long suppressed. And when a new threat looms over Rae's home, she and Zander must race to the rescue, forced closer to danger and to each other.

I love it

I fell in love with this series and my favorite person is definitely Tiger and that was also my favorite book and I love how sometimes it's shifter with shifter and other times shifter and human and with every book the danger is more dangerous than before. Since most of this series is narrated by Cris Dukart it really threw me off for the other books that was narrated by someone else and there are some stories that were SUPER short like lone wolf I was really looking forward to that one but I still really loved this series and I really hope red wolf comes out soon on audible

I loved this story

I love how the stories by Jennifer Ashley builds on one another. The story about this Bear I did remember and I am glad about hearing more about him and all of the other past shifters.

Goddess touched...

I loooved this story! It’s a bit different than the others and I think that’s what added an extra bit of whoa to the story.

Rae, a lupine guardian. The only female guardian, and Zander, a Goddess touched polar bear healer are an odd couple for many reasons. The Goddess has a sense of humor it seems, or she’s just a wee bit crazy herself.

The battles they have to over come, like being “captured” by a human bounty hunter determined to turn them in sets them off on a crazy train ride that has them going a hundred miles an hour to not only save their bacon but others now in their care. It’s not everyday a female guardian comes into the fold, nor is it everyday that the guardian finds a mate in the last person she would have expected.

I hope to see more of these two in the future!

AMAZING

I love shifters unbound. I loved Zander from the first time he appeared several books back. He deserved a great l9ve and that is what he found in Rea.

This series is terrific!

I have enjoyed listening to this. The story follows through the series and the characters are very well portrayed. The narrator is very good, however, I would like to hear a males voice. I believe it would round out a very good listen.

One of my favs

I absolutely loved the characters in this one. She does such a good job not only on developing the characters it also keeping them connected from book to book. I loved Ra and Zander, so fun and strong together.
