Here are my posted reviews for all 3 of these books, 2 of which I purchased here on Amazon and the 3rd one I was given for an honest review.Book #1 'Change for me'*Honestly, this book took me a bit to get into. It is so different from the books I usually read where everything happens very quickly, kinda 'wham-bam-thank-you-mam'. This author obviously loves the English language. Detailed, intricate scenes were a delight once I slowed down a bit so I could enjoy them, and enjoy them I did!I thoroughly relished this different story line. (At least I haven't read it before and I've been reading paranormal books for quite a few years now.) Not many authors will have their hero confess to being scared and confused, but this guy finally got up the courage to tell his mate that he was.I felt anxious, confused, angry and happy right along with the MC's. After a while, I was so into the story that I almost peed my pants as I didn't want to take that long a break away from the story. I was actually feeling like I didn't want to miss anything even though it was a book, silly as that may sound.Any more explanations would be spoiling it for you so just go get the book and enjoy it. I'm off to read the second in the series now and will get to the third one asap. I can't wait!Book #2 'Shift into me'I got this book on sale at Amazon, but I totally would pay for it! I'm doing the happy dance over here because I have found a new author to put on my favorite author 'must-buy' list.This book is even better than the first and since I gave that one 5 stars I'm having a bit of a dilemma. Do I go back and give the first story 4 stars as I think this one is better, but I don't want to penalize the author for writing a better book . . . oh what to do?!?I seriously can't wait to read the next book in the series. Lynn Red writes with eloquence and originality, 2 qualities difficult to come by now-a-days. It almost killed me having to put this book down occasionally to go on needed errands today. *sigh*I highly recommend this book, just click on the link and start reading, although I have to agree with the other reviewer, you will enjoy this one a lot more if you read the 1st book before this one. Have fun, I know I did.Book #3 'Howl for me'This book was given to me for an unbiased review and I am honored to have been given the opportunity to review such a wonderful author.*sigh* That was a sigh of relief, in case you were wondering. Why, you ask? Well I'll tell you. It is because this story did not fail to live up to the hopes I had for it after reading the first 2 books in the series.Now, don't get me wrong, the book wasn't perfect as there were a few more grammar mistakes and misused wording than in the first 2 books, which frankly has me puzzled as one of the reasons I liked the first 2 books so much was the lack of blatant errors. I'm a bit OCD and have to correct the errors in my head which drops me out of the story, so it was a bit disconcerting to have more of them in the 3rd book. I also found the end of the battle to be a bit anti-climatic after the excellent job Lynn did with the build up for it. I don't want to say any more than that as I DON'T want to spoil it for anyone.In spite of these 2 things, this is still a fabulous ending to the trilogy. I find myself hoping, with crossed fingers, that Lynn is going to continue on with this world that she has created as I have taken great pleasure delving into this fascinating story. I want to know more about Hunter and Cat. Also, what is going to happen with Lily's editor from the Times? I have fallen in love with Lily and Damon and I need, need, need to read more about them and their friends.Lynn describes scenes so lyrically that I feel like I am there with the characters. I loved the interactions between all of them and how much I felt like I got to know them. She has managed to make a totally fantastical story seem like something that actually happened. There is not one character in this story that I found irritating. I liked and respected all of them and the villain, wow, this guy was an amazing bad guy. Lynn created a villain worthy of the name. He wasn't an ex-anything, not a stalker or psycho and not a 'boss' gone wrong. It was very refreshing!The ending of the story was beautiful and very poignant. Again, I don't want to divulge any spoilers, so you will just have to read it to find out. I want to close this review by saying, please go out, get the first 2 books read them and then read this one. You won't regret it, I know I have seldom enjoyed a series more.Now, I'm off to go see what other books Lynn has published so I can read them too.
