About Bitten Shifter:
Betrayed, shattered, and transformed. Sick of everyone’s crap, can this snarky lone wolf find belonging, respect, and love?
Lark Emerson vaguely remembers being happy. After catching her husband and her sister in the sack, the IT professional walks away from twenty-seven years of marriage and takes a job on the border of a shifter community. But after a rogue pack storms her office and attacks, to her horror she’s captured and savaged.
Wounded and ill, the forty-something limps home and is shocked when her injuries rapidly heal, her eyesight sharpens, and noise hurts her ears. And taken to a facility to ease the transition from human to supernatural, she’s completely thrown when her comfortable middle-aged body alters to something unfamiliar and exquisite.
Struggling with a temper as hot as her new figure, can Lark learn to trust when the handsome packmaster comes calling?

My Thoughts:
The book starts with the betrayal scene and it took perseverance on my part and forever, to get into the book at all. But I am an old Brogan Thomas fan so I plodded on.
I wonder which part of the UK that the author has designated as the shifter territory? Is it somewhere in London?
I can't wait to read the next book in this series because I want to know if the Wizard House is going to appear again. And what else can it do?? I love magic houses! Gertrude Hunt in Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews. Abhorsen's house in Sabriel by Garth Nix.
As usual, Poppy Royana did a wonderful job of bringing this book to life!
This is my first Peter Wicks listen. I would buy his audiobooks again.

Meet The Author
Brogan lives in Ireland with her husband and their eleven furry children: five furry minions of darkness (aka the cats), four hellhounds (the dogs), and two traditional unicorns (fat, hairy Irish cobs).
In 2019 she decided to embrace her craziness by writing about the imaginary people that live in her head. Her first love is her number-one favourite furry child Bob the cob, then reading. When not reading or writing, she can be found knee-deep in horse poo and fur while blissfully ignoring all adult responsibilities.

The Narrators
Born and raised in the South East but finding her home in the North, Poppy is a bi British Narrator based in not too sunny Manchester. With experience in musical theatre, Poppy is both a singer and a book lover and teaches singing when she’s not found narrating in her booth.
Poppy’s voice could possibly be mistaken at times for Olivia Colman’s so we’d like to think that, in our opinion, Poppy has an award-winning voice. She sounds warm and uplifting whilst being articulate and crisp; and not only that but she can nail sarcasm to a T. There’s really not much Poppy can’t do!
