ANNA LURED INTO ANOTHER GREAT PNR SERIES!!!

This was my first Anna Lowe story, and it won't be my last. Lure of the Dragon ticked off everything I look for in a good PNR. A well written, fast paced, action packed plot, unique and interesting characters, and of course romance. It was an instant love story, but like any good PNR it's more than just attraction. There's something special about Tessa that makes her desirable to dragon shifters. She didn't know shifters existed, but when one of her clients tries to force her to mate him, she goes on the run to Hawaii, asking for help from the only people who can keep her safe.... more shifters. These highly trained, hot shifters are mix of some of our favorite shifters. The each have their own personalities, and I enjoyed how they interacted with each other.

The narration was great! Kelsey Osborne did a great job on both the female and male characters. I would definitely listen to other audios narrated by her.

Overall, this was a good entertaining story that kept me engaged, and an excellent whispersync deal. I will be keeping my eye out for the next book to be released in audio.

Good and complex

I was very impressed with this book. I had not read anything from this author so I was a big skeptical but it was actually really good! The story and characters were well developed and the book kept a good pace.

Another great series from Ms Lowe set in Hawaii.

I have posted a review for this book as well which I will include at the end.
Once again a great story from Ms Lowe kicking off a new series from beautiful Hawaii.
The narration is good but I have to speed her up a quarter for my listening pleasure but having said that I am really starting to enjoy audible books and can nearly ignore the one voice doing all voices feature.
The narrative descriptions are wonderful and the tension at the end comes across more in audible. What I picked up more in audible was Kai and the others seem uber Alpha but with a close bond which I loved.
Tessa still comes across as a bit silly for taking off. I think I picked up this point more in audible as being slightly exaggerated as one moment she is professing to trust Kai then she receives a message and believes the worst.
The baddies really do need a beat down.
Once again a pleasant experience listening to this great story.
I was kindly gifted this audible book for an honest review.
BOOK REVIEW
A wonderful new entertaining series from one of my favourite authors.
This book introduces us to the beautiful islands of Hawaii, where five Special Forces Veteran shifters with mysterious pasts, who have bonded through the trials of combat have settled.
I loved the sound of Koa Point, the estate where they all live, how beautifully it is described. Having been to the islands recently it bought back beautiful memories, especially the farmers market.
I really enjoyed the jewel stone and legends aspect too, cannot wait to see how this all plays out.
Tessa was a strong character and apart from one silly, excusable mistake, was quite believable and entertaining with her actions.
We didn’t really get to know much about Kai and I hope we do learn more of him as this series continues whilst his brothers of the heart find their mates and much needed HEA’s. I did love his dragons character and how he kept snipping at Kai about Tessa being their mate.
Loved the little tie in with Twin Moon Ranch as well through Ella.
Who will be next, will Silas and Moira reunite and solve past hurts or will it be Grouchy Cruz, Wolfie Boone or rock solid Hunter. From the little teaser we are given Boone is the next to have his life changed for the better. I cannot wait.
This is my honest review of this book.

Awesome story

Tessa's nightmare started one night when she was hired to to cook for a rich stranger who turned out to be an evil shifter bent on forcing her to be his mate. She was saved by Ella a women who lives next door to her. Ella sent her to a group of shifters in Maui for thier protection.
What she found out was there was a dangerous shifter world she never knew about and now she is in the middle of it.
OMG this was one fantastic storyline full of action and mystery. The characters are truly amazing and I honestly connected to them fast! This is also the first book in the series (don't worry it's a full story and not a chiffhanger) I can't wait for the next book to come out. I am hooked.
The woman who read this did an awesome job. She acted it out and made it a lot of fun.

Not quite the Jewel I thought it would be

To start this wasn't a bad read/listen. The story although was interesting and had my attention there were a few flaws within the storyline and I wanted a little more development for the main characters and between our dragon and his mate.
The biggest flaw within the story that really should have been corrected is Kai's mother who is human and died did in fact birth Kai....but later we learn that Tessa is so special because she can birth a baby that could shift...which other humans apparently can't since (and I am paraphrasing but close) "any child from a human couldn't shift and dragons wouldn't care about any baby from a human for that reason". This is a BIG whole in the storyline.

I will give the next book another try and the author as well. Worth the credit...if you can overlook a few holes...

Loved it.

What made the experience of listening to Lure of the Dragon the most enjoyable?

With current health issues, I found it very refreshing to have the book talk to me. :)

What other book might you compare Lure of the Dragon to and why?

Not sure that I would compare it, as it's a new unique story series, the just happens to have connections to the Wolves & other new Shifters we love from the Twin Moon & Blue Moon series.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Tessa baits the Dragon who thinks he's going to kill her! That made me chuckle as he found out too late it was him that would die. Showing her true grit and clever ruse in her defense.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I did but with meds had to split it over two sessions, thoroughly enjoying.

Any additional comments?

I was lucky to get to read the little Bonus material on Kai & Tessa's mating & her flying, enjoying a good chuckle; loved that also. I can;t wait to read Boone's story next. :)

Full Review -

I love Anna Lowe's books about wolves and I love dragon shifters, so I knew I'd probably love this one, and I was right! Another awesome book! Tessa is on the run from a shifter that was trying to kidnap her; this shifter business is all new to Tessa, so she isn't quite sure what to make of it, so on the advice of a friend, she finds herself in Maui looking for some help from some other shifters, who are supposedly friendlier. Tessa is a tough chick! She's having a lot of crazy thrown at her, and she is handling it very well. Among the various shifters she meets up with, there is Kai, and there is something about him that draws Tessa in, but she doesn't know if she can trust him. Let me tell you, these two create some sparks! Some hot moments between these two! Kai and Tessa's romance is also sweet, and I loved their connection. I loved that we get dual POV's, and I loved all the dragon shifter traits! Love me some fire breathing, high flying, gold/jewel loving dragons! This book is a standalone, but it seems there is a connecting storyline that is going to be going on throughout the series, which I totally love! I'm really looking forward to getting the stories from the rest of the guys! I listened to the audiobook version of Lure of the Dragon, and the narrator did an excellent job! She does male and female voices, and I think she does it seamlessly! Loved this new series from Anna Lowe, and I'm super excited for more!!
