Publisher's summary

Uptown girl meets rogue biker - with a shape-shifter twist!

All Cynthia was planning for the weekend was a quick escape to the countryside, where her inner dragon can stretch its wings. She wasn’t counting on a handsome, enigmatic wolf shifter coming along and sweeping her off her feet. Cynthia has always been driven by duty rather than desire. But suddenly, she finds herself making reckless, irresponsible choices and telling herself, "Just this once...."

A night of sizzling passion ensues, but the question remains: Is Cal to blame for making her throw caution to the wind - or is it destiny?

Maui just got hotter with this exciting new series of steamy, suspenseful paranormal romance!

This short-story prequel can be listened to at any point in the Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire series (all stand-alone audiobooks with no cliff-hangers). "Rebel Heart" reveals Cynthia’s backstory and sets the stage for her second chance at love, a story told in the series finale, Rebel Alpha (Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire, Book Five - a full-length novel like the rest of the series).

Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire is a series of sizzling paranormal romances with adult content. No cliff-hangers. Each story is a pause-resister packed with action, emotion, and romance! If you like Magnum, PI and smoldering-hot alpha shape-shifters, you'll love these audiobooks. Join these strong heroines and their alpha heroes in exotic, tropical locales full of danger and suspense!

Nice Prequel

I enjoyed this short prequel to Cynthia's story. It gave us a peek into Cynthia's mind. This little glimpse into their meeting was steamy. Definitely makes me want to jump into the next book.

I enjoyed the narrator performance as well.

Disclosure: I received a free copy of the audiobook. I also purchased the Kindle version.

Good

Good story. The characters were interesting and fun to get to know. Dialogue was witty. I liked the book but wish it had been longer though.

LOVE ON 2 WHEELS💥💥💥💥💥

I had a tear or two in my eye as those last words broke my heart. I knew before l started reading, that this story of Cynthia's past would be a humdinger. I listened to this young Cynthia and savored each word, each description, colour, smell and emotion. I felt Cynthia's freedom and knew in my bones that the near future would bring bitter and heartbreaking turmoil. Cal, he came to life for me, big, generous, soft and fell head over heels for the forbidden fruit. Ah... that bad boy image. This is Cynthia's back story and lays the foundation for the next book Rebel Alpha. l can't wait. I'm totally sold! If you've read Anna lowes books you don't need any convincing. The narrator does a fantastic job, she is a pleasure to listen to. These stories are gems. Recommended reading.🤓💥💥💥💥💥

Can't wait for the rest of Cynthia's story!

I love all of Anna's books and although this one is short, it is just right to pique your interest. If you have been keeping up with the series you know that Cynthia doesn't seem to have a wild bone in her body. Take a listen to this book and you won't recognize her as she meets her fated mate on a deserted highway and follows her dragon's urging to get closer to him. Can a wolf and a dragon really be destined for each other? We will find out in the series finale.

I was given a copy of this audio book by the author. My review is voluntary.

Can't Wait For Rebel Alpha Now!



This is the shortest of prequels but it shows us that Cynthia has a heart, we've always known that she would die for Joey but she never seemed to mourn the loss of her husband, at least not openly, well know we know why! This glimpse from Anna Lowe shows us the young Cynthia before she suffered loss when she believed in following her own desires, in pushing the boundaries, when in some ways she believed herself entitled to choose to find her own happiness.

I am now really impatient for the whole story and hope that this time Cynthia gets to be happy with her fated mate. As for Cal, well I’m already a little in love....

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

Rebel Heart

This book is such a tease! I have always felt so much for Cynthia and knew her first love was epic. With the ending this novella has I can only hope she will have a second chance at perfection in her future.

Great Segue to Rebel Alpha

This is a great segue to Rebel Alpha. It gives us a little background about young Cynthia. Interesting that she comes from a wealthy family. You could feel the almost instant attraction of Cynthia and Cal, the biker wolf. Ms. Lowe did a great job of whetting our appetite for more about Cynthia, Cal and especially her son's father. Great job by Kelsey Osborne. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Cynthia’s story prequel

Throughout the pearls of desire series Cynthia has been fiercely protective of her privacy, never opening up to anyone so it was nice to get this glimpse of her past. I can’t wait to read her full story.

Enjoyable short story.

Enjoyable short story. Having read the book REBEL ALPHA and knowing what happens with these two lovely characters this is quite sweet and sad to listen too.
I was kindly gifted this audible book for an honest review.
BOOK REVIEW
This is a quick teaser/taster for REBEL ALPHA, book 5 in the Aloha Shifters, Pearls of Desire series.
Such a short taster for a story that I am waiting impatiently to read but so emotional that I had tears in my eyes.
You don’t need to have read the previous books or this short but it will make reading Rebel Alpha that much more enjoyable.
Please note this is just a short sweet taster, not a full book but saying that any book written by this author is a winner for me.
I was kindly given this book to read for an honest review but have purchased it as well.
