Earn Primal Passions (Lost Shifters #1) Formulated By Stephani Hecht Offered As Kindle

was a nice shifter story about Logan, who was always treated as an outcast because of his family history, but who has faithfully worked to help Mitchell, the alpha of his pack of cat shifters as Mitchell tries to bring peace among the various species in the shifter world.
Mitchell is also trying to find his brothers, young men who were reported dead at the time his parents were killed, but for whom information recently surfaced showing they may be alive.


One of those brothers is Jacyn, and Logan arrives to retrieve him just in time to save him from Ravens, a rogue group of shifters who are working to destroy all cats.


Though there is a definite chemistry between the two men, Logan doesn't feel he's good enough, and once he gets Jacyn back to Mitchell, he departs on a three month mission, breaking Jacyn's heart.


The two, of course, get back together for their HEA and Logan's acceptance into their family.
It was definitely easy to tell that it was one of the author's early works due to the typos and the immaturity of the writing style here and there, but if you like shifters, you should like this one.
I gave it.stars. A good start to the series, It sets it up well so likely this is the one with more tell and less show but the world is sketched/built out nicely.
Established bad guys, bit of mystery, and the quest to find lost family members, It is insta kind of love but it feels o, k. great sex and some really interesting characters, I have absolutely no recall about this book, Now I see Bubbles likes it and I love Bubbles's reviews, Should I reread it or, . . just let it go Decisions, decisions. Man, this series goes on forever,.Stars! I agree with several other reviewers, The story is a good one, however, the editing sucks, A lot of spelling mistakes and not a lot of depth where there should be, The sex scenes are unrealistic and the one in the tub leaves me quoting Anita Blake "As wet as water is It is NOT a lubricant!"

I will read the next one because like I said, the story idea is a good one.
.I really enjoyed this story,   It was a simple read without a lot of world building for a PNR and I really liked all the characters.
  I only had two major issues with it that come to mind,   First, was the "insta love", I always find that a little annoying when the characters are so in love with each other right after meeting.
Of course, Jacyn and Logan didn't immediately admit it too each other, but I was still bothered by it.
Second issue is that I was kinda icked out by all the lubeless sex, Ouch!

Anyway, I'm really interested in reading more of this series and getting the stories of the other characters.
Also, the story ended with a bit of a cliffhanger to set up for the next story arc so I hope to read the next one soon.

Can you imagine having no clue that you are a jaguar shifter until your entire world goes to hell in a handbasket I can't, and I love shifter stories, but I'm pretty sure I'd have lost my mind if I'd gone through what Jacyn experienced.
'Primal Passions' is book one in Stephani Hecht's series 'Lost Shifters' and I was super excited to read it because it had been recommended by more than one friend.
The fact that this author is new to me also held its own appeal as I adore discovering new favorites.
The premise and world building is very well done and will most definitely keep me coming back for more.


Jacyn is an orphan who was tossed around in the foster care system, Now at twentyfive, he doesn't really have any friends and he pretty much works all the time as a paramedic.
In one night everything he knows about himself and the world around him comes crumbling down, Attacked inside a convenience store by four large males, he is helped by Logan, a very sexy man.
However, the Ravens manage to kidnap Jacyn, although he shifts for the first time oh, holy crap, that's got to be a dream, right and puts his own beat down on his abductors.
Once again, though, Logan saves him, they escape, and Logan tells Jacyn he's a jaguar shifter, part of the lost shifters that disappeared and everyone thought they were dead, but now they know they've been raised as humans and the search is on to locate them before humans discover their kind.
Oh, and lucky Jacyn, he also has brothers and a sister, Logan also tells him the bird shifters hate everyone and have been systematically trying to decimate all the other shifter populations.
Huh. I think my head would have been hurting after all of that,

Logan is a black jaguar, which apparently is looked down upon, and to make it even worse, his parents were rogues.
No matter how attractive he finds Jacyn, nothing can happen, because Logan isn't good enough for the brother of the feline shifter leader, Mitchell.
Logan has some confidence issues, although they are not unfounded based on how the other shifters treat him, except for Jacyn's family.
Logan is a loner who hunts down rogues, rescues kidnapped shifters, and fights against the Ravens, He's basically a jackofalltrades. Now Logan is stuck transporting Jacyn back to Michigan and these two in close confines become incendiary, But Logan is bound and determined to step back when they reach their coalition because he just knows that Jacyn will end up looking at him the same way most of the other felines do.
rolls eyes

This was a good and interesting read that builds the baseline for future stories.
Jacyn and Logan get their happy ever after, but even more importantly, Jacyn is able to help Mitchell to track down more of the lost shifters.
Jacyn and Logan were both good, strong, and very sexy characters that I liked, a lot, Now, I'm looking forward to more books in the series,

NOTE: This book was provided by the publisher for the purpose of a review on sitelinkRainbow Book s This was the first book in the Lost Shifters series and it's off to a fun start.
Jacyn is an EMT that is on duty when he is attacked by some very hulking, gothlooking, wellarmed men.
Luckily, Logan, a similarly wellarmed and large man comes to his rescue, As if that isn't strange enough, Jacyn is awakened to a world of hidden shifters when his attackers turn into Ravens and he discovers that not only is Logan a black jaguar, but Jacyn himself comes from a family of jaguars.


The series is called the Lost Shifter series, becauseyears ago, many of the shifter children who were thought to be killed in a war between

shifters, were scattered around the country and separated from their families.
Jacyn is one of those lost shifters and Logan's primary objective is to get Jacyn back to his family.


While this book was a good opener, I only gave itbecause of the way Logan handled his relationship with Jacyn.
It seemed a little bit angstfor angst's sake, But I still enjoyed it and am looking forward to reading the rest of the series and getting to know the other shifters up close and personal.
The characters were promising, the plot was promising but the actual writing was so disjointed that it drove me to distraction! It was difficult to connect with the characters and follow their motivations to love each other.
. . I will, however, get to the second book in the hopes that the writing will be a little bit better.
. . This looks like the start of a new series based on feline shifters,

Jacyn and Logan are a likeable pair and there are enough secondary characters that enhance the story and have hooked me and interested me already for future possible stories.


The characterization and conversations are very witty and made me laugh, I liked Jacyn's sense of humor and irreverance, He met up with enough other like minded characters in the compound so hopefully this won't be lost when he is no longer the focus of the story.


The baddies are creepy but it is hard for me to wrap my head around evil bird shifters.
I had a little trouble with that, I kept picturing the flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz, .
