My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lisa: Coming of Age by KM Lowe is the first book in The Guardian Shifters series. I absolutely loved this story. The main character Lisa faces so many challenges and uncertainties, but her character remains strong. She relies on those around her, her adopted family, her best friend Marcus, and his father Jasper, to help her get through discovering a world that was completely new to her. Lisa and Marcus’s relationship was truly special. They shared a bond from childhood and then fell in love with each other. Marcus is so protective of Lisa because they are soul mates. They seem unstoppable, but they face some challenges that would rock any relationship. I really enjoyed reading Lisa’s journey as she explored a new part of her life and I look forward to reading other stories in this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Lisa: Coming Of Age (The Guardian Shifters Book 1) by K.M. Lowe is a YA paranormal/supernatural story with shifters and witches, suspense and drama, angst and danger, love and friendship, and find out exactly who you are and that there is more in life than on can comprehend. It is my first time reading anything from this author and found it engaging and I really enjoyed it.

Lisa was prepared to go to college and have her best friend by her side. However, she soon finds out that who she is and what she is something out of a fantasy book. Her whole view of the world has been turned upside down, but will she be able to live with what it entails.

This friends to lovers’ story is engrossing and gives you all the feels. I am looking forward to reading more from this author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have always been a fan of paranormal romance, and this book did not disappoint.
The story starts with best friends Lisa and Markus, whose bond goes much deeper than they realise.
As far as Lisa knows, she was abandoned on the hospital steps when she was a baby. She was brought up by her loving adoptive parents, but she knows nothing about where she came from. As past secrets force their way to the forefront, Lisa must deal with the fact that she is a shifter, something she has trouble believing. Luckily Lisa has a great support system in Markus, Jasper and other shifters we meet throughout. They help her come to terms with who she is, and to get ready for the biggest battle of her life.
I was completely sucked into this story and can’t wait to read the rest of the series. I loved the relationship between Lisa and Markus, but I think my favourite character was Jasper so I can’t wait to find out more about him as the series goes on.
I would definitely recommend this book.

Lisa-Coming of Age (Book 1 of the Guardian Shifters ), was an easy to read book with well-developed characters. It seemed like it took forever for Lisa to get to her final destination, but it is necessary to the plot. This story is on the hot and steamy side and if that is your genre this will satisfy your need for that and your need for the paranormal. Lisa introduces you to characters that you will meet again. A good story.

Lisa: Coming Of Age (The Guardian Shifters, #1)Lisa: Coming Of Age by K.M. Lowe
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lisa’s life begins tragically when her father takes her from her mother simply because she was a girl. Surrounded by her adoptive parents and siblings, uncle Jasper, and best friend Markus, Lisa has been supported and loved by those that her around her. However, lately she has been having wild dreams that come every night. Telling Markus about these dreams sets into motion the revealing of her true family lineage which will change her world as she knows it. Lisa finds herself questioning everything she has known and wondering if the future is something she can handle. The story that KM Lowe has written puts the reader in a world filled with magic and things that Lisa believed only existed in the books she read.

I stayed up way past my bedtime to read this book because I did not want to put it down. I wanted to know what happened and how things were going to play out. Not only was Lisa and Markus’ story entertaining to read, it was also filled with real emotion and struggle that you can feel pouring off the pages. Lisa is a strong and resilient teenager that shows just how sassy and tough she can be when facing her new truths head on. Markus is a supportive best friend and soul mate that helps guide her through a world she knew nothing about only a couple of months prior. The supporting characters were also wonderful, and I am excited to read their books in the future. This is the first book that I have read by this author…but it won’t be the last.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Imagine knowing that your whole life you’ve been adopted. You know you’ve been well taken care of, loved, and supported but it’s not quite enough. That’s what Lisa has to come to terms with. She has so man unanswered questions when it comes to her birth family. She needs to find out what is the story behind her birth mom. It’s a journey she feels deep within her soul. She knows she can’t do this alone, so she turns to Marcus. He’s loved her for so long, and he’d do anything for her. But the question is, when the truth comes out will she embrace it, and him?

My heart hurt for her as she found out who her father really was, and losing her birth mother all in one shot. I couldn’t imagine having to deal with all that mess on top of finding out you’re not really who you think you are. Her love for Marcus really made a difference to not only her journey but his as well. They both were dealt with such heartache before they even knew what it was. It’s a beautiful story that is well written, intriguing and full of twists. I can’t wait to get started on the next book in the series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lisa: Coming of Age is the first book in the The Guardian Shifters by KM Lowe. KM Lowe put a lot of creativity into her story. She made her shifter story unique. It is a romance book with paranormal roots as well. Her characters are multi-layer which makes seeing them in my mind’s eye easy. This story is about Lisa. Lisa was left on hospital stairs seventeen years ago. She never wanted for anything in her life, until now. She was curious about her birth parents and what led them to leave her on those hospital stairs. She turns to her best friend Markus to help her understand what is going on with her. What will Lisa find out? With her relationship to Markus remain intact? This is a great book and I highly recommend you read this story for yourself.

Its been a while since I have been captivated with a shifter book. But this read was amazing, it was so nice to be transported into Lisa’s world. It was a mentally visual read that you couldn’t help but get hooked up in!
This is my first read from this author and after experiencing her writing I will definitely be wanting to read more! I absolutely loved these characters, I loved following their journey and learning along with them. I loved that this was written in various POV’s it really helps you further connect with the characters, really understand what they are really thinking and feeling. Everything about this read I loved, it has drama, passion, romance, action, emotion. I can’t wait to see what else comes to this series, and what else this author brings us! Until then this is a read not to be missed!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a story that drew me into It. the writing is smooth and reading it felt easy. It is told from different characters POV which is nice. That way we get to know what each is thinking. At times it did get a little tedious listening to the drama in their heads over and over. Lisa is being taken on an emotional journey. Her life as she knows it is changing forever with a few words to her best friend.

Overall this is a nice story. It didn’t wow me but I didn’t hate it either. It had enough action to keep me interested in her plight. This is a new author to me. I see Jaspers story Is next. I will probably give it a go.

4 Stars

Lisa grows up knowing that she’s adopted. Around the age of seventeen, she learns that she is a wolf shifter. The truth about her birth parents is hard and she’s in denial for most of the book. The next few weeks of her life put her and her loved ones in danger.

The premise of the book was good. The book placed an importance on family which I liked. I loved the fact that the story was situated in Scotland. The author added a few Scottish words here and there although I would have expected more. I found Lisa’s childish tantrums redundant and somewhat off putting. There was too much unnecessary drama surrounding her denial. I liked the other characters in the book especially Jasper. I’m looking forward to reading part two because it’s about him.

Wow! This book was an amazing read! Every step of the way I felt like I was immersed in this story. The characters were extremely well developed. Sometimes the shifter paradigm can be overdone or just feel trampy. But Lowe does a wonderful job with this genre making everything feel very authentic and real. I loved every single page and am excited to delve further into this series. Loved it!

Lisa: Coming of Age is the first book in The Guardian shifters series by K.M. Lowe. If this book is anything to go by the rest of the series is set to be fantastic. I have come to this party quite late, as this is my first read from Ms. Lowe- and there are also several more books in this series that have already released. But, now that I have a taste of her work, I will definitely be exploring the rest of the series, as well as her other books.
This is an engaging paranormal coming of age story- with a friends to lovers romance, shifters, drama, angst, discovery, danger, adventure, banter, love, friendship, family, emotion, surprising developments, suspense, and tension.
Lisa has her world and everything she thought she knew turned upside down when her past is revealed- turning up secrets she could have never imagined. She will need to wrap her mind around this huge, life altering revelation- and come to terms with this ‘Coming of Age”. This is an adventure that will change her life forever.
I have already added the other books in this series to my TBR list- and can’t wait to find out what lies in store for us- starting with “Jasper: United Together” (Book #2).
Engaging, fun, and emotive!!

Thank you, K.M. Lowe!

This author is a new author to me so I didn’t know what to expect going into it. I almost didn’t read it as shifter stories are starting to feel a little over done but the reviews changed my mind. And I am so glad they did.
This whole book felt refreshing. The story was interesting and certainly gets your attention. It was well developed and I really enjoyed reading about the characters.

I enjoyed this paranormal romance story. It is a creative, well written story that is engaging and kept me turning pages fast. The characters bring the story to life and made me feel as if I was right there with them. Lisa was adopted and she had everything she needed growing up. Now she has questions about her biological parents and how she came to be on the hospital steps. She goes to her soulmate for support but as twists and turns change things will their love survive? It is a great story that I couldn’t put down once I started and I don’t regret picking it up. I highly recommend this book.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A paranormal romance featuring wolf shifters based in Scotland, Lisa: Coming Of Age had plenty of action and suspense which kept me hooked from start to finish. This is the first in a new series, ‘The Guardian Shifters’ by KM Lowe and it has wet my appetite for the rest of the series.
Seventeen year old Lisa was abandoned on the steps of a hospital and has no information about her past at all. Having found a loving and stable adoptive family Lisa is content, until her world is turned upside down when her biological families secrets are discovered, and she has to accept who she really is. Turning to best friend and soul mate Marcus, Lisa ends up being part of the biggest fight of her life.
The author has written some great characters, Lisa, her parents, Marcus and Jasper are all likeable, realistic and each have their own part to play in the story. I like how the relationship between different characters change and develop, especially as Lisa learns who she is and starts to accept it. The chemistry between Lisa and Markus showed and I like how he was her constant throughout the story. There are enough twists and turns in the plot to not be a predictable read and I cared about Lisa’s fate as I felt immersed in the story. I was taken on an emotional rollercoaster whilst reading this book. I thought it was an enjoyable first book of a new paranormal series and I’m looking forward to reading Jasper’s story in book two soon.

I give Lisa: Coming Of Age (The Guardian Shifters Book 1) by K.M. Lowe, 4 stars.

This is a young adult paranormal romance where the main character has no idea she is anything other than human. I have to admit that I have read this type of story before. That being said, this is a wonderful addition to that genre. The characters are real and believable. I enjoyed every last one of them and cannot wait to see more of them in future books. The story itself is good too. It is fun and exciting — it pulls you into the story and you cannot wait to see what happens next.

The backbone of this story really are the well-done characters and if you are a fan of paranormal romance and/or urban fantasy, I highly recommend this book.

I loved the support she had and the friends she made as she started her new journey. This was a great read!

I loved reading the story Lisa: Coming Of Age (Book 1 of The Guardian Shifters) by KM Lowe. I absolutely love shifter stories and this one is a wonderful example of why. It is a book that pulls you in from the very beginning and doesn’t let you go until the final page. I loved reading about Lisa and Marcus. Lisa is a young woman who has questions about her past. She loves her adoptive parents however also wants to know about her biological family. Then secrets are revealed, and her world begins to change. Marcus is Lisa’s best friend. They have always had a strong connection. He is the one that she turns to when the world seems to turn upside down. What does the future hold for Lisa? Is Marcus part of that future, not just as a friend but something more? Read this book to find out. I grew to care about what happened to Lisa and Marcus with each chapter that I read. Lisa is a young woman who has had a lot thrown at her and I liked that she wants to understand how her world will be changing. Marcus is a young man who is in love with Lisa. He would do anything to keep her near and safe. There are other characters introduced that I enjoyed reading about and many of them are helpful to Lisa and Marcus. This is a story that is about family and love. The author has done an amazing job in making me feel I was right there with the characters. This is a book I would highly recommend reading.

Soulmates will overcome anything.

When Lisa was left on the hospital steps seventeen years ago, it left a lot of unanswered questions in her mind. Where did she come from? Why was she abandoned? What did her future hold?

Well, one thing she knew was that her adoptive parents were the one constant thing in her life. She was loved, cared for, protected… until her biological family secrets were revealed, leaving her to fight the biggest fight of her life.

She turns to her best friend and soulmate, Marcus, who happens to make her world rock with emotions she didn’t know existed.

Will Lisa’s life ever be the same again?

Will Lisa’s love for Marcus survive?
