Imani applied for a position at a B&B. Little does she know that the casting of a mating spell and the secret surging through her veins is what truly lured her here to the Ridge.

The instant I met her, I felt the magnetic tug of our mate bond. But her world has been turned upside down, and she’s far from ready to accept her role as my alpha female in Black Forest Ridge. Even if I’m desperate for her to be mine, she doesn’t feel the same pull I do.

She needs time to accept she’s mine… and my time is running out.
Will I be able to convince her that she’s my fated mate before I lose myself to the feral madness?

Shifters of Black Forest Ridge: Quinn is a standalone with a happily ever after in this spicy small town shifter romance series. Each book focuses on a different pair of fated mates. You’ll enjoy this series if you like shifter romance with fated mates, forbidden love, a band of brothers, growly protective former military alphas, and tough, hilarious heroines.

    Finding His Mate . . .

    Imani, a hybrid who will stir up hostility from the snobby full-bloods, is arriving in Black Forest Ridge to apply for an executive chef position at a B&B. Quinn is an Alpha wolf concerned for the pack having trouble finding mates. If they fail to find a mate, their wolves will turn feral.

    So Quinn gets a local coven to ask them to cast a spell and draw possible mates to them. He didn’t realize that his own mate will be among those to arrive. But she knows nothing about shifters. Will she accept him as her mate? Will the pack accept her since she is not a full-blooded shifter? If he cannot get this resolved, he will run out of time and will be overcome by the feral madness he is trying to save the pack from.

    Great perspective on shifters

    I hoped book #2 was about the blood mate for the vampire council member! I will be patient. I know his turn is coming!

    Quinn and Imani were fire 🔥 hot! The story was different than most paranormal shifter stories, which I appreciated. Quinn was all in from the beginning. Usually, the fated mate is all in as well. Imani took on a different direction. She needed convincing. I loved that. Something I didn’t understand was if Imani was a hybrid, how did she shift fully? That’s just me being curious! I loved the introduction of different others and their origin stories, specifically the vampire!

    I can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

    Happy reading 📖🥰☺️

    This book focuses on Quinn and Imani. Quinn is the Alpha and his pack is going feral at an alarming rate because they don’t have their fated mates. He isn’t immune either, he will go feral if he doesn’t find his soon. Quinn makes a deal with the head witch of the local coven to cast the unstable mate spell which brings the fated mates to the shifters.

    Imani applies for the head chef position at the B&B and Quinn knows she is his mate. She has trust issues stemming from her past so she is leery of what Quinn is saying. Some of the townspeople aren’t happy with Imani’s presence. Will Quinn be able to protect her?

  • Bree

    When Imani comes to Alaska for a job, she is introduced to a world she didn’t know existed. Alpha Quinn has resorted to desperate measures to find his fated mate and the fated mates of others in his town.

    When Imani comes into town his prayers have been answered but folks aren’t happy.

    This was a fine read. I like the characters and supporting cast. While this story didn’t reinvent PNR novels, it was an easy, enjoyable read.

    Shifters of Black Forest Ridge: Quinn: A Fated Mates Paranormal Romance (Shifters of Black Forest Ridge Romance Book 1) By Sedona Venez. loved this story Imani is pulled in to a world she never thought existed. Although, she always felt unwelcome in her human life. Quinn is the Alpha as many in Black Forest Ridge they need their true mate. It’s a great book and I recommend it.

    Hybrids Are Worthy


    Imani is more than she ever believed. Coming to Black Forest will show her a place to belong.

    The cast of characters are definitely what makes the story interesting. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

    Fitting in

    He was the alpha of the town and pack he will never let them down, but when a women comes knocking at his door saying Bigfoot is chasing her, you have to wonder. She didn't know what it was that kept pulling her to look for her forever home, but again she left a good job in NY to take a job at an B and B.

    Love it

    I really loved Imani who was a Chef who ended up in Alaska. She meets Quinn and explains to a human what she is but as it is was she was no hurry to take things a face value.
