S.E.X. Review~ Harey Situation by Bailey Bradford

This time, it’s a real bunny shifter and you know the saying about doing something like bunnies…

Oliver Biggerstaffer comes to Texas from Boston, looking for a job and a new life. He’s hoping the advertising firm he interviews for will hire him, and he can put his past where it belongs—behind him. No one will know who or what he is—a snake shifter.

Except he’s interviewed by Jagger Osterman, a bear shifter, and he meets a cute bunny shifter at the hotel where he’s staying. Oliver can’t hide his shifter status from them. And he doesn’t want to, once he meets them—especially the bunny, Peter Ruiz. It’s lust at first sight, but Oliver wants to take things slow as long as he’s staying at the hotel Peter’s working at.

Peter wants to get laid, and he wants to get laid now. The sexy snake shifter he’s attracted to has morals and ethics and things most of the guys Peter’s screwed around with before lack.

Oliver treats Peter like a person, not a body to have sex with, and if they can survive a series of weird accidents that might not be accidents after all, then Oliver and Peter just might have a happy ending all their own. 

Reader Advisory: This book contains scenes of violence and kidnapping.

Bailey Bradford’s series, City Shifters, took a new spin on shifter tales. A well-developed story, Harey Situations was a lovely contemporary romance whose characters happened to be shifters. Ms. Bradford delivered a winner in her ability to make me forget about the animal and focus on the men.

Oliver, a mixed snake shifter and Peter, a hare were well-suited from the first meeting. Both men brought insecurities and trepidations, but more importantly a deep-seeded need to be loved and desired for who each was.

Peter’s charming, witty personality stole the show, and Oliver’s stoic demeanor kept me turning the pages. The infusion of Peter’s cousin Lucy added an element of a strong and spit-fire woman, who knew what she wanted out of life.

Together, Oliver and Peter steamed the pages of my e-reader, as every available surface was utilized. The drama which unfolded, the twists and turns all kept me interested and looking forward to the next book in City Shifters.

S.E.X. Review~ Bearly There by Bailey Bradford

One surly bear and one bunny boy…what could possibly go wrong?

Jagger Osterman is having a bad day. In fact, he’s not the slightest bit impressed with 2015 at all. His job is on the line, and it’s not like he loves being a marketing wunderkind, but he has to do something to pay the bills. If he had his way, he’d just vanish into the mountains and live out his life as the black bear he yearns to shift into. Unfortunately, Jagger doesn’t have the time to let his beast run. He has responsibilities that he can’t walk away from.

Kevin Kelly could tell Jagger a thing or two about bad days, bad years, and just out and out bad luck. He made the mistake of smarting off to a curandera years ago and hasn’t been able to shake the curse she put on him yet. There’s not an area of his life that hasn’t been screwed up in one way or another. As a pronghorn shifter, he’d be okay on his own in the wild. Sure, there’d be predators, but Kevin had come to realize the worst predators were the human kind.

But he can’t shift. He’s been solidly bound to human form since being cursed.

Two men, both trapped in their own ways. They’re about to find out that freedom comes in many forms. 

Bailey Bradford has done it again with the start of her new series City Shifters #1, Bearly There. Jagger and Kevin were pure sex as they traversed the waters of like and lust, with an added dose of suspense.

Kevin believed he was cursed, making the bunny a walking disaster, whose attempt to keep Jagger away proved futile. Good thing the large bear didn’t believe in curses.

The story was face-paced and touched on some intriguing elements~ a sister with debilitating phobias, a bear who lived in the city and rarely shifted and a bunny who’d rather be alone.

The story was infused with whit and laughter, taking the sting out of moments of drama and adding an element of humanity.

I look forward to reading the second installment of City Shifters and learning more about the why’s and the how’s.
