Vixen's Run by Zenina Master - Review



Tiff doesn’t want a mate, she wants to hide in the woods, but a peacock in need appeals to her and she agrees to help him regain something lost.

Tiffany has lived with a traumatic past and a family that puts her squarely in charge. She is ordered to the Crossroads and decides that if she has to leave home, she will have a holiday. Alone in the forest, she spends her time running in her fox form and enjoying the wilderness.

She sees a peacock in horrible shape. His feathers are dull and his shoulders are stooped. Tiff sees the trauma in him that matches her own, and she offers to help him get part of himself back.

Davus was one of the harvested shifters being held by the lions. He was healed in body but the pain of a year in a cage went far beyond skin deep. Tiffany sees his pain and doesn’t dismiss it or pity him. She offers to help him regain the mind-body connection, and he takes her up on it.




Tiff doesn’t want a mate, but she’s forced to the Crossroads, since she’s the eldest and no one else can mate until she does. So she’s planning on just hanging out in the Crossroads so she can say she tried. Then she sees a peacock, with dull feathers, and she’s determined to help him. They quickly fall for each other.

The Crossroads books are quick, fun to read and always entertaining. I know matter what when I pick them up, that I’ll be transported and entertained for a short while. I really liked the way Tiff liked to help people, and enjoyed seeing Davus come back into his own. It was interesting to see one of the harvested shifters find love.

Lost Roar by Zenina Masters - Review



Robbed of her roar, Nicia doesn’t want a lion. She goes to the Crossroads and has a wolf follow her home. No red hood required.

Nicia was at the fundamental lion compound and rescued from a life as guard beast for her family.

Her mother’s family takes her in and helps her recover from the years of abuse.

Once she is recovered, she decides that it is time to seek out a mate, provided she could change her mind and come home if needed. With that agreement in place, she heads to the Crossroads.

Braxton has been watching for a mate, and while several women came close, it was the sombre lioness asking for directions that caught his attention. He wanted to make her smile, and when that became his primary pleasure, he knew he was in deep.





Nicia has lived a harsh life, and knows she wants a mate but not a lion. Her grandparetns send her to the Crossroads to find a mate. She finds Braxton and things start off a bit rocky but when he brings her fully into his world and gives her purpose, they hit it off.

This story delves into more than just what happens in the Crossroads, it shows the real structure of the shifter world. I enjoyed getting to see more of how this interesting world works.

Braxton and Nicia are definitely meant for each other. I enjoyed their banter and time together, they will be a strong couple long into the future and their chemistry is definitely off the chart.

I enjoyed watching Nicia heal and grow into the strong capable lioness and she’s meant to be. Braxton is a great hero because he does everything he can to support her and healing and growth.

I recommend this story to fans of shifter romances with a strong heroine.
