Prides of the Moon 1 - Amber MoonI so love shifter stories and this was no exception, even though it was a quick read, it was definitely hot, I felt the connection that these three, Sabrina, Madeline and Nick, were looking for.After a disastrous mating, Madeline and Nick are looking for their third to complete their bond, just as Sabrina is looking for an Alpha couple, her being a Beta, she longs for a bonding with shifters stronger than she is.Madeline meets her first and sparks fly, once they see they are compatible, Nick then will join them for a fireworks-type of a night.  I enjoyed this being an M/F/F, the story kept me turning the page, cannot wait to read the next installment of the Prides books.Prides of the Moon 2 - Emerald MoonI love the 1NS stories, especially shifter ones.  The next installment is M/M and very hot.  Ben has had to struggle with what he had to do years and years ago; his blind date is with Jude, someone from his past, someone he knew intimately.  Ben feels what he did is unforgivable; however, Jude is the one looking for forgiveness.Jude, an Alpha, has come looking for him to be his Beta and to prove he still loves him.Awesome story of second chance love of two tortured heroes, souls being reunited and lots of sexual tension.Prides of the Moon 3 - Turquoise MoonThe third installment of the Prides story has us delving further into Ben and Jude's lives.  If they are to continue their Pride, they will need a female mate.  Kara is searching for an escape to an arranged marriage to a horrible shifter, someone who spreads lies about her.  In disguise she meets Ben and Jude, and knows they will know the truth as they can see into her soul.Kara is an Alpha in her own right, Ben the Beta has to meet her first to make sure that she is dominant enough for Jude, his Alpha.  Their mating was very hot and sensual and all together they create a very strong bond.I am very impressed at how strong Kara is, she is doing what she has to in order to get out of a bad situation.  Even though these stories are short, I felt the story was well developed; I can't wait for the next one.Prides of the Moon 4 - Onyx MoonWhat a way to have a 1NS, but to travel to Jamaica!  That is where Marcus is waiting for his possible mate.  Marcus is hoping to be able to find a shaman for his Pride and it appears the matchmaking service may have found him.  A hang-up Marcus still has is that he is not sure he'll be able to tell if his possible mate will be using magic on him, because of the spell put on him and others by his last Alpha.Vashan is a great shaman; however, his people shun him because of his cat not being a puma but a jaguar.  They meet and a bad misunderstanding has him running but Marcus pursues and apologies are offered.  Two men baring their souls is possibly the best turn-on for me, loved this story and hope to read more about them in the next book.Prides of the Moon 5 - Amethyst MoonSuch great conflict in this story...Noah is a turned shifter, after a promise is made; he finds it hard to keep that promise that would bond him with his Alpha female, because he is gay. He turns to Madame Eve of the 1NS matchmaking service to find a male that he can bond with and then in turn that male will bond with his Alpha.Marcus and Vashan, from the previous story in the series, are looking for a female to complete their Pride and instead find Noah and are tremendously attracted to him.  However, he is dominant and feels that he cannot submit to Marcus.  Can Marcus make him understand how sweet submission can be?  Check out the story to find out.This is probably one of my first M/M/M stories and I loved it and left me longing to read how they will all come together when Noah introduces them to Alpha Giselle.
