This is a good shifter romance, with a likable couple。 This book gets 3。5 stars from me, rounded up to 4 stars。I liked both Dan and Paula a lot, and thought they made a good couple。 I also really liked that Dan was so good with kids。 There aren't many books that have an alpha male working as a babysitter, and I thought that was a nice touch。I liked that characters from the earlier books in this series helped to resolve the problem with Paula's ex and his family -- but I did think that the ex's f This is a good shifter romance, with a likable couple。 This book gets 3。5 stars from me, rounded up to 4 stars。I liked both Dan and Paula a lot, and thought they made a good couple。 I also really liked that Dan was so good with kids。 There aren't many books that have an alpha male working as a babysitter, and I thought that was a nice touch。I liked that characters from the earlier books in this series helped to resolve the problem with Paula's ex and his family -- but I did think that the ex's family agreed to the resolution a little too quickly to be believable。One problem I have with all of Zoe Chant's series is that there is so long between books。 Lots of times I have to go back and reread some of the earlier books in a series, simply because it has been so long that I don't remember all the characters。 That is frustrating。 I know Zoe Chant is actually a group of authors, and one person writes all the books in a series -- but I wish the books in a series could be published closer together。My rating system is below。1 star -- Hated it, or did not finish。 I usually only give this rating if some of the content is truly objectionable to me, like if one of the main characters does something really awful, and gets away with it。2 stars -- Didn't like it。 This rating usually means that I thought the writing wasn't very good, the editing was terrible, I didn't like the characters, or it had other major flaws。3 stars -- I liked it, but had some minor issues with it。 This rating means that there were minor editing issues, the story needed more character development, it was just too unrealistic, or had some other fairly minor issue。 The majority of books I read get this rating – I do not consider it a bad rating。4 stars -- I liked it a lot。 This is a high rating for me, and I rarely give a higher one。5 stars -- I loved it, and will probably read it again。 Very few books are good enough to get this rating from me。 The ones that do are usually classics。 。。。more

New viewTotally new concept of griffins。 Terry's family were total a****s。 The shifter show down did the trick。 Cute when Paula suddenly realized what Dan & her son had discussed that was so secret。 But Lissy shifting for the first time when she saw her brother shot was priceless。 New viewTotally new concept of griffins。 Terry's family were total a****s。 The shifter show down did the trick。 Cute when Paula suddenly realized what Dan & her son had discussed that was so secret。 But Lissy shifting for the first time when she saw her brother shot was priceless。 。。。more

Just lovely!Nice slow boil shifter romance。 Dan's character is great, veteran amputee and a nontraditional male role。 Paula is a strong, single mom and business owner。 When the two meet the magic that blossoms is sweetly gentle and a very enjoyable read。 Just lovely!Nice slow boil shifter romance。 Dan's character is great, veteran amputee and a nontraditional male role。 Paula is a strong, single mom and business owner。 When the two meet the magic that blossoms is sweetly gentle and a very enjoyable read。 。。。more

Babysitter BearI really enjoyed this fast paced read。 Cute baby bear and dragon shifters and hijinks make for a funny story。
Rebecca Brewster,
Babysitter BearThis steamy shifter romance with action continues this series。 I recommend reading them in order。 Dan shows up at his old military buddies ranch and Dan is the baby whisper。 Paula owns the diner and bad guys are harassing her。 Intriguing characters and story。
Josephine,
I loved this book so much!! This a fun read。 The kids had me laughing so hard。 I loved all of their personalities。 Dan and Paula were so adorable together。 His skills with the kids were amazing and I loved reading about it。

Fortunately, Dan is like a kid-whisperer, so he can handle it。 Then he takes the kids into town and meets his mate。 Paula owns and runs the local diner and suddenly this menacing man comes around looking for her ex-husband。 Dan is not about to let her be pushed around, but she doesn't know about shifters! It gets even more interesting from that point on!The pace is fast and the tone is hopeful with a character oriented storyline that has some steamy scenes and some action。 The characters are vivid and engaging with some of the characters from previous books in the series showing up。 This is a very exciting shifter romance series。 There is a spinoff series called Stoneskin Shifters, I think! Only book 1 in that series is out called Stoneskin Dragon and it takes place after Bodyguard Shifters #6。 Enjoy these fun to read shifter romances! 。。。more

Dan and PaulaDan does not know what to do hes lost his arm and goes to his buddy looking for a job。 Hes great with kids and becomes a nanny。 This is a paranormal novel with lots of twists and turns and of course he finds his mate and and a hea。
Sarah,
Wonderful read!I loved this book。 It was so much fun to see traditional gender roles reversed。 The hero as a nanny was terrific。
Winsome Edwards9,
WowLoved it, wow fate sure has s sense of humor, and oh I love how protective shifters can be。 Things all turn out right and Paula has been a trooper through all this and Dan finally got over his fear of shifting with only three bear legs。。but all is well and everyone is happy。。loved it。。who is next。。big fan as always Winzie19🤗💞。
Ann Jensen,
Sweet and Fun。 I loved the way the H being an amputee was handled in a natural and respectful way while not making it the only point of the story。 Even though this was a story with the mate trope I felt the love between them grow instead of just relying on the insta love。
Carlottawoolcock,
I like itVery complete。 Very well written。 Very romantic。 Likes Subaru AWD too! I’ve read the entire progression of the series and I’m happy to see the diversity in the town constantly breaking the isolationist attitudes of shifters in the past。
Jennie Owens,
Loved itThank you for taking us back to Autumn Grove and seeing how everyone was doing。 I truly enjoyed Dan and Paula’s story! Hope there is more coming!

A delightful readI so enjoyed reading this book。 It was cute。 I loved the little ones turning into shifters。 Sprinkle sparkle pony what a name for a favorite toy! The secret part about the tattoo and Griffin's was a new idea。 Kind of sad that he had to leave his kids but then again shame on him for doing that to begin with and even worse shame on the Griffin's for messing up her diner。 That was uncalled for and just nasty。 Read the story it really made me smile!

Nic,
So sweet and completely adorable Seriously there is nothing sexier than a man with a baby。 This was amazingly sweet, full of cute kid antics and family drama that’s the norm with teens and toddlers but with the Zoe Chant flare。 Good build up with the drama at the diner and the dad’s secret。
Debra,
Great book! I love this series and this is a great addition to an amazing series。 I really loved the surprises and unique twists。

I truly loved this book, I love the entire Bodyguard Shifters series, but this one was special。 It was very inspiring how Dan adapted and faced his challenges head-on, never too proud to admit limitations。 I am looking forward to rereading it very soon。 A great addition to a great series, highly recommended!
Lynall,
This is Such a sweet and lovely romance, I loved Dan’s character, he just makes me want to cuddle him, and Paula is great, a divorced mum of two。 The chemistry and the romance are wonderful and made me smile all the way through。 Even though there are multitudes of shifters and some bad guys, this story is a fabulous read, with an adorable happy ending
Jane Elizabeth ,
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍Another in the long list of wonderful stories by Zoe! The characters, especially Dan, have a tone of even more realistic than normal。 When a person loses a limb, be it from combat, an accident, or a birth defect, it is hard。。。but I can only imagine that for a shifter it the "hard" would be doubled! Love the story。 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍Another in the long list of wonderful stories by Zoe!

LOVED IT! This is just the sweetest shifter romance。 Dan is a absolute teddy bear/grizzly bear and totally rules!I voluntarily received this book for an honest review。
Beverly,
While reading this I assumed the worst, but was happy to find the secret wasn't as sinister as I'd thought it was。 In the end , I had some empathy for Terry and his situation。 Humor, drama , and steam within。 I think it was very humanizing to make Dan's character less than perfect and with a disability。 A heartwarming tale。 While reading this I assumed the worst, but was happy to find the secret wasn't as sinister as I'd thought it was。 In the end , I had some empathy for Terry and his situation。 Humor, drama , and steam within。 I think it was very humanizing to make Dan's character less than perfect and with a disability。 A heartwarming tale。 。。。more
