Good Narration.
Good Narration. This series was my very first audible book. I have listened to quite a few audible books since that first one.
I am really starting to enjoy listening to audible books and find that I listen to the story now more than the narrator so that is good.
Wonderful when driving long trips and if busy doing jobs around the house.
The humour, sadness and emotion really do come across in the audible version.
Loved the humour of Soren’s bear worrying. (chewing on his claws) LOL.
You also really understand the feelings these two are going through. What a mess of emotional trauma.
You cannot go wrong with this author. Box sets are a great way to keep a series together for easy access.
Three really gripping stories that hold your attention till the end.
BOOK REVIEW
1 - DAMNATION
A great new series coming up.
I read the prequel PERFECTION before this book and it was so sweet. You do not need to have read it but it makes what happens in this book so much sadder.
Jessie has done nothing wrong but been left by her unmated mate. She has suffered 3 years of hurt and then things get worse. Her pack is wiped out by purist rogues that only her and her sister Janna escaped from.
Jess believes she could have done more to help her pack and her guilt at not fighting enough, on top of not being wanted by her mate and living on the run has taken her from being a feisty she wolf to a shadow of herself.
Simon thought he was doing the right thing in hurting Jessie and turning her away and making her hate him. What a ninny.
Why do males not understand that talking can solve so much. IF Simon had told Jessie what was going on, IF he had not hurt her so bad, they may have been able to be together and their respective pack and clans may have been able to help and protect each other from the rogues. Big IF I know.
All in all a very enjoyable read with a good storyline that is leading to a series of books for some of the other lovely characters we meet in this book.
Really want Soren to have his HEA.
2 - TEMPTATION
BOOK REVIEW
Good continuation of this series.
I have fallen in love with this series and was so looking forward to this book. Do yourself a favour and read the other books first, you will get a better feeling for this story.
I loved the background we are given on Cole, oh my, what a man. Loved him but felt for him with his guilt over the young rodeo cowboy who died. He is a wonderful person and did well with what happened to him.
I was really enjoying Janna and Coles story until Janna became some stupid idiot who did not tell Cole what was happening to him. I so wanted to slap her upside the head.
Poor poor Cole, he thinks he is going mad, hearing a voice and feeling things he did not know if they were real or imagined. Janna would have saved him lots of grief if she had explained what was happening to him. He also would have known how to fight the Purity idiots when they had Janna.
There are 2 other people this has happened too but does she ask for advice, NO, she just waffles along risking Coles life. Janna knows how close to the change he must be but she agrees to meet Cole to go dancing, at a rough, rowdy bar. Of course, Janna gets taken by the PURITY blue bloods who have been sending threatening letters which she has told no one about.
Really, a smart savvy woman suddenly does stupid things. Just because she is a wolf she is not invincible. I get annoyed when this happens. TSTL.
3 - REDEMPTION
BOOK REVIEW
MS Lowe is going to kill me with suspense.
I have waited what seems like ages for this story. We get one hell of a teaser at the end of book two, but then we have to wait until over 50% into this book until we hear what happened to Sarah over the past year and how she got pregnant. Now there is suspense in a book, but this was torture. I kept trying to read faster and snarled at anyone interrupting me.
What a sad story for Sarah, she has been through so much since Soren broke up with her and left.
Soren was an idiot for dumping her and had no right to act wounded, but he is a male and they make no sense most of the time.
Unfortunately, Soren is a very quiet bear and hardly says anything, even when he has the chance too and at the end he still had not explained to Sarah why he had broken up with her and left her and what had happened. We know from reading the books but Sarah never had it explained to her. Unless Janna and Jessica told her. Hmm, that’s what was going on behind closed doors.
Loved that Sarah held her own when trouble turned up. Good girl. So glad Soren and Sarah have their HEA.
Then at the end of this book MS Lowe gives us more to keep us on tender hooks for book 4. She is the mistress of suspense.
If you are a fan of Ms Lowe you will love this. If you have read nothing by her before, read this series, you will not regret it.
This is my honest review of this book.

I love stories that have romance and humor all rolled up in one. All her books display both. I’ll continue to read/listen to her books.

Blue Moon Saloon
All the stories in the Blue Moon Saloon series were enjoyable and the characters were fun to get to know. Each kind of quirky in their own way. It's great for fans of shifter romances!
Damnation
Second chances at happily ever after. With a past better left in the past, Jessica Macks finds herself faced with a past she rather forget, Simon Voss. A wolf and a bear will never work out.
Temptation
Love is blossoming but when it is with a human...Janna Macks is a wolf shifter who finds herself falling for sexy cowboy Cole Harper. But what happens when the unexpected occurs, Jenna wolf is crying out that Cole is her mate.
Redemption
The story of Soren Voss, burly alpha bear shifter, and Sarah Boone. Soren thought he lost Sarah forever, but when he finds her lost in his bar, she doesn't know what to think. Pregnant and on the run, Sarah is faced with confronting the love of her life, with one caveat...she has a secret of her own.
The voice character is good and the stories flow quite well together, even when you have to stop and start due to commuting. The characters come to life in each book. As always, it is nice to see the character from the other stories as well and find out how they too develop over time.
I voluntarily reviewed Blue Moon Saloon 3 Book Collection as a gifted copy from the author.

Awesome series!
This review will be broken down by each of the three books in the series.
Damnation - Jessica and Simon’s Story
Jessica and Jannah were on the run from rogue shifters who killed their family. They end up at the Blue Moon Saloon where they find jobs and fit in quite nicely. Turns out Jessica has history with the bartender, Simon Voss as they were involved before the rogue shifter attacked their families. During their time apart, they stayed true to each other. Once they get together, they make such a cute couple and a can’t keep their hands or eyes off of each other. The rogue shifters try their nonsense again and Cole, who is human, gets scratched trying to defend Jannah. No one, except Cole, knows anything about it until the next book.
Temptation – Cole and Jannah’s Story
All it took was a single scratch from a rogue wolf to change Cole’s life forever. This book was suspenseful in that you didn’t know what would happen to him and Jannah. I was hoping Victor, the rogue wolf and his band of bandits who stands for purity, would get theirs. This is another book where humans could take a lesson. Cole did a great job fighting the rogues by himself (with some help from Jannah). The other supporting characters in both books were great!
I really enjoyed the segue to the next book. I can’t wait to find out how Soren handles the news of his mate’s condition.
Redemption - Soren and Sarah's Story
Soren and Sarah's story was unique in that Soren thought Sarah was killed, along with his family, in a vicious fire set by Victor and his band of rogues. Sarah, Soren's true love, returned after being on the run, with a secret. Usually it is the woman who has to deal with such things so I am glad that in the end, Soren had to deal with and accept it. Soren was able to put his pride behind him and admit to the love he has always had for Sarah. This book contains loaded with suspense fight scenes that leaves you rooting for Sarah the entire time as well as hoping that Soren will return in time to save her from the evil Victor and his band of rogues. As usual, Ms. Lowe delivered a really great book. It fits right in with the previous two books in this series. This book is no different in that I want to know what happens to these people/shifters long after the book is over.
I highly recommend this series! These books were so good that the time passed really fast! I was at the end of the series before I knew it.
Kelsey Osborne did a great job with the narration. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Romantic interactions between human and shifters.
Three stories that interweave together. Bear and Wolf shifters. Being chase and hunted by evil wolf shifters throught the story. Loved the narration too.

Reviews previously posted on individual books
***Damnation***
"Great start to the series!"
Overall: 4 stars
Performance: 4 stars
Story: 4 stars
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, it's fun, flirty and even has a bar fight. I enjoyed the flow of the story and how the author filled in the backstory while telling the current story. I enjoyed the back and forth chatter between wolf and human. It showed while the two were one, that human and animal see the world differently.
What did you like best about this story?
I totally loved the humor which was sprinkled liberally throughout the story.I loved how the girls practically took over running the saloon. They're brainstorming session was freaking hilarious.
Which scene was your favorite?
I loved it when Simon realized Jessica was selling his muffins.
"Muffins? She was selling his muffins?
"Giving my muffins away, he nearly said"
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I have no idea. Sorry.
Any additional comments?
My only turn off in the story is taking the Lord's name in vain. I have little problem with other swearing, but that always makes me wince and jars me out of the story. That said, the cursing is not over the top and fits the moments it's used.
While I enjoyed the narrator, Kelsey Osborne, I kind of wish she had a bit more definition in the male voices. That said, I'm looking forward to listing to the next one.
Required FTC Disclosure: I received a free copy of this audiobook.

Loving this series!
Overall: 5 Stars
Performance: 4 Stars
Story: 5 Stars
Would you listen to Temptation: Reckless Desires again? Why?
Totally. It's a great story and my favorite of the series so far. I loved the interaction between the main characters and their wolves. Plus, there was lots of humor.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I am totally in love with Cole. He was so sweet and lovable. I loved how he dealt with the changes that were happening to him.
I also loved the wolves voices inside Janna and Cole's heads.
Which scene was your favorite?
Hmmm, it's hard to say that without spoiling the story. I loved the scene with the Cole, Janna, and the bull.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Totally...and I did just that last night.
Any additional comments?
I have to say the narrator, Kelsey Osborne, impressed me much more with this book. The male voices were much better this time.

Soren and Sarah
I think this is my favorite couple in in the series so far. I love how they slowly made their way back to each other. While both had valid reasons for their hurt and anger, they didn't wallow in it. They were very pragmatic about the situation they found themselves in.
Something I really loved was that there wasn't a silly misunderstanding that had kept them separated from one another. The issues were valid and appeared insurmountable. Too many stories use that cliched and overused trope, imo.
The story was well-composed which is the norm for Ms. Lowe's books. I've never been disappointed with her stories. Her characters are imperfect, but improve throughout the story. The stories are do follow a typical pattern so the reader does know what to expect in the general sense. For myself, this is truly part of the charm. She definitely does *not* let it get stale/boring. I can trust she's going to tell me a fantastic story that I'm going to love.
The narrator, Ms. Osborne, did a fantastic job of reading/acting out the story. She's really grown as a narrator.
I'm looking forward to the next book.
Disclosure: I received a free copy of the audiobook. I also purchased the Kindle version.

Blue Moon Saloon: Three-Book Collection
A truly enjoyable paranormal shifter romance series. This set has the first three stories and each one was great. Each story stands on its own, but the books all build on a common overarching storyline.
Anna Lowe has built up a great clan. I sure hope we get to hear more of their stories. Having Kelsey Osbourne continue as the narrator would be fantastic.

Each Couple has a Good Story to Tell
All three books are about couples that live at the Blue Moon Saloon. Each story speaks about the obstacle that prevents the couples from their calling as mates. Each story is action-packed and heart-wrenching. The Narrator is good at separating the characters and draws you into the story. Each woman is unique in her situation and personality, and the two brothers are typical hero types. Our third male has a cowboy attitude with veteran PTSD, but finds peace in the arms of his mate. I enjoyed each story and felt the tensity of the action.

Second Chances abounds!
This series is full of second chances at love. Each one easily stands alone but still flows from one to another.
The narrator has a bright, cheerful voice that is easy to listen to.

Danger, suspense, steam and fated mates
(4 and ½ stars). Expect danger, suspense, steam and fated mates in this box set. Overall, it was an enjoyable listen, and the narration, as always, was brilliant.
I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, and I'm leaving a voluntary review.
Damnation
Second chance love for she-wolf and alpha grizzly
Jessica and her sister Janna are on the run. They find jobs at a shifter bar, and then Jessica finds out that her former love Simon (the mate who rejected her) works there too. Simon doesn’t know what to do when Jessica shows up. His inner bear wants to claim her, but she hasn’t forgiven him. They have to find a way to make the situation work.
Temptation
Forbidden love for she-wolf and rodeo pro
Janna’s wolf knows that cowboy Cole is her mate, but with rogues after her pack, Janna needs to keep her distance from him to keep everyone safe. Cole is drawn to Janna, but he doesn’t understand why an inner voice is demanding that he claim her. Cole was sweet and sexy and I really felt for him as he was thrust into the shifter world. I loved Janna’s playful inner wolf too.
Redemption
Secrets and forgiveness
While trying to forge a life for his new clan, Soren is still mourning the loss of his family and his mate, Sarah. But Sarah isn’t dead, and she is pregnant with another man’s child. Meanwhile, the rogues are still on the prowl. This was a sweet story, but I wasn’t overly happy with Sarah’s explanation of how she got pregnant, so it’s not one of my favourites.

Fantastic series absolutely love Anna Lowe
Book 1 of Blue Moon Saloon by Anna Lowe
Where to start? I absolutely loved this book but to get the full story or beginning YOU MUST READ PREQUEL PERFECTION SHORT STORY BEFORE DAMNATION. This is a short story about how Simon first meets Jessica but it just beautifully starts everything off but when you start book 1 damnation you are thinking of a great romance that started so well but this first book throws you so much.
Simon is a bear shifter but after been away from his clan with his brother for some time he returns to find them all dead. He and his brother end up as cook and bartender at the wild owned Blue Moon Saloon.
Jessica and Janna are wolf shifter that turn up in town and running for 6 months after a rogue kills their whole pack.
Such great twists in this series and I’ve only ready two books and one was a short story.
The audiobook is fantastic Kelsey Osborne is a favourite of mine and narrates so beautifully. If you love shifter series that look no further then Anna Lowe
Book 2 of Blue Moon Saloon by Anna Lowe
This book carries on directly after the first, Janna is a waitress at the Blue Moon Saloon and become attached to a alcoholic customer Cole.
While there she starts to try and sober him up, she’s worried about him.
After the Saloon is attack Cole becomes injured but no one realises he was bitten by a werewolf. After this Janna wolf starts making demands about mating.
I absolutely love this book especially with Cole being a broken cowboy that needs serious tlc.
Janna has a very dark upsetting pass but she’s always on the brighter side.
I absolutely love this series but this book is my favourite at the moment but after ready blurb for book 3 it might be tough to choose.
At the moment I’m listening to this on audible with the awesome Kelsey Osborne as a narrator.
Book 3 in blue moon saloon series by Anna Lowe
I didn’t think this book would top book 2 but as always I shouldn’t had judge a book too soon especially a Anna Lowe book.
Soren is heartbroken after losing his mate to a awful fire set my the rogues and starts to build a life with his brother and wolf clan mates.
One day a heavily pregnant human is brought into the saloon almost collapsed and Soren brings her water but is completely shocked to find his dead Sarah in his saloon and look very pregnant.
I absolutely loved this book it through complete curve balls and twist in there that compelled me to listening and not stop.
Kelsey Osborne does another fantastic job getting the amazing story by Anna Lowe across to listeners that I can’t stop listening

Fantastic Series
In the first book DAMNATION Jessica and her sister Janna, wolf shifters, are drawn by destiny towards The Twin Moon Ranch, it belongs to a pack of wolves run the by Alpha Ty Hawthorn and his family (A great series by the way which starts with Desert Moon) after their whole pack was murdered by the Blue Blood rogue wolves. Twin Moon Pack take them in and arrange for them both to have jobs and a place to stay at The Blue Moon Saloon. There is only one problem with this as far as Jessica is concerned the saloon is run by two brothers, bear shifters, Simon and Sorin Voss. Simon being the bear shifter who deserted Jessica years ago leaving her with a broken heart.
Both the Voss brothers are here at Blue Moon Saloon because the same group of rogues murdered their family and burnt their village killing everyone but them, Sorin's mate was also killed. So the stage is set, each of these four lost souls are trying to make new lives in new surroundings after suffering devastating losses.
At first, the atmosphere between Jessica and Simon is very tense but eventually, they begin to connect again and the true reason why Simon gave Jessica up comes to light. The story is both moving and exciting and has lots of action. The descriptive writing of Anna Lowe really brought the area to life for me. I could close my eyes and see the colors of the desert! Unfortunately, they not only have to work at their relationship they still have the Blue Bloods to contend with as they have found them again.
In the second book TEMPTATION, we have the story of Janna, her story involves a human Cole Harper, he came to their aid in the first book and was infected by the werewolf blood and is now turning into a wolf. He and Janna were drawn to each other from the start, in fact, the reason he was in the Blue Moon when he was injured was to see Janna.
Cole begins to think he is going mad when strange things are happening in his head and his abilities seem to be changing, he can hear so much better, for one thing, smell much better for another. He has no idea what is happening he thinks he is going mad. Meanwhile, Janna knows he is her mate and tries to help him adjust and survive the Change, which is not always possible it will take a very special human to do this.
The Blue Bloods make another appearance to complicate matters and nothing can be taken for granted.
In the third book REDEMPTION, we have Sorin and Sarah's story. Sorin didn't only lose his family when The Blue Bloods attacked he lost Sarah, the human, who was his Destined Mate.
Now many months later, having watched as his brother and the girls find happiness Sorin gets his second chance at love and happiness when Sarah gets off the bus just outside the Blue Moon, she's thin, she's frightened, she has scars after trying to save her parents from the fire which killed them. Sorin is both shocked and elated to see her alive but then he notices something which could change everything - Sarah is pregnant and there is no way the baby could be his!
I really felt for Sorin his elation at seeing Sarah alive, his hurt at the thought of his mate choosing another man over him, his need to help her and the baby whilst trying to remain strong, for himself and his clan/pack. Over time we find out what happened in Montana. We watch as Sarah and Sorin build new bonds as she is welcomed into their little community, working in the cafe run by Janna and Jessica (Damnation and Temptation) and helping Sorin too.
But their peaceful life is threatened again, by The Blue Bloods lead by Victor White. I was on the edge of my seat as both Sarah and Sorin fight for their very lives and their future. I would love to tell you more but that would be one spoiler too many so what I will say is you definitely need to listen to this book - the characters, the descriptive writing style and the wonderful narration by the super talented Kelsey Osborne cannot be bettered.
I was given this audiobook collection as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.
