A grieving wolf. A hunted fox. Fated mates, thrown together by chance, and the looming threat of a fabled Huntsman who might tear them apart forever.

Fox shifter Liam Reynard is running from a killer. He uproots his life to find sanctuary in Fox Hollow, deep in the Adirondack Forest in New York.

When his car breaks down, sexy wolf shifter Russ Lowe comes to the rescue, and one touch makes it clear they're fated mates. Neither man was looking for love, and both are still mending from past heartbreak. When mysterious fires and disappearances threaten Fox Hollow, Liam fears the killer is hot on his trail. Can he protect the town and his fated mate from the evil hunting him, or will an ex-lover's betrayal cost Liam everything he loves?

Contains mature themes.

5 out of 5 stars
A wonderful escape!
This book takes place in Fox Hollow, which is home to shifters, psychics, and others that are a part of the paranormal community. Liam is a fox shifter on the run and finds refuge in Fox Hollow. The first person he meets is the uber sexy mechanic/firefighter wolf shifter Russ. These two have some serious chemistry that they can't deny. Soon trouble comes calling for Liam, but will he be able to survive without anyone else getting hurt, or will he have to high tail it out of the place he has come to love and the one person he feels drawn to? Loved this book! Liam and Russ are adorable. Plenty of nail biting scenes to keep you on your toes. Plus, the cover! woo hoo! Hot!!!I did receive a copy of this book from Hidden Gems and this is my honest review.

    Liam is a fox shifter on the run from a hired but who happens to land a job in Fox Hollow, a small shifter safe community in the Adirondacks. Russ is a wolf shifter who runs the local auto shop and is a volunteer fire fighter. Neither one believes in fated mates but they are going to learn that date has other ideas in store for them both. I love Morgan Brice's books and this one is no exception! I look forward to more in this series and see the potential for some cross-overs!!!! I highly recommend you read this book!!! Just the right amount of action and the characters are so relatable.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Fated Mates, with a side of danger
    Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2020

    I enjoyed this book and that the fated mates also hinged on choice. Both characters kept telling their animal side that they were human too and humans did things differently. That doesn't mean that they didn't get together quickly but rather they both recognized that they each had to also chose one another. I liked that take on fated mates but I also like consent in my books so that's probably why! Brice even makes the point that it doesn't solve everything but it does smooth the edges on what might be larger conflicts in non-fated mate relationships.

    There's a little bit of mystery and intrigue, which I also enjoy in a book. When it's mixed with the paranormal it hits a lot of the right notes for me so if that's something you like, then I'd give this book a try.

    There were a lot of good character details worked into the book, like how Liam learned more about being a fox (don't want to give it away) and who was in the pack Russ is part of are two such details. When a book is going to be part of a series I enjoy the series more when it's not a lot of info dump in each book but a slower development of the characters over time. We already know something about characters who living Fox Hollow so when they show up later we'll recognize them and understand how they fit into the story.

    Right now this is a stand alone series but there's a line that sets it up to be connected to Brice's larger universe and I look forward to seeing how that might play out.

    This is my first book by this author and now I'm hooked. This book had a little bit of everything...romance, action, humor, and sexiness...all perfectly balanced out. Liam and Russ are fated mates so the romance and love is quick, as expected but we do get a great love story. I really liked that their shifter animals have their own snarky personalities and communicate with their human. The secondary characters capture your attention to want their stories without overtaking the story. And I really hope we get their stories. Now I'm off to discover more books from Morgan Brice

    Huntsman is the start of a new paranormal MM shifter series by Morgan Brice. A fated mates story between a fox shifter on the run from and hunter and a wolf shifter .

    If you've been following my reviews for a while now you know I love love love Fox shifters. They are cunning, sneaky, feisty, small and just all around perfection in my opinion. Anyways I digress. This is a quick and easy read with insta love , if you read shifters on the regular than you know with fated mates this is a given. It takes place in a tight-knit community filled with people, shifters and other varieties of those in tune with the supernatural. If you're looking for more than a fluffy shifter romance this has a heavy dose of steamy intimate scenes and a touch of action.

    Morgan Brice is a new author to me and overall I enjoyed the Huntsman, so I'll be keeping an eye out for future books in the Fox Hollow Zodiac series. I'm a sucker for a small town shifter romance with a HEA.

    What a great beginning to a new series. Love the idea of a town like Fox Hollow which is open to all kinds of shifters and psychics. It was wonderful to see how Russ and Liam could tell immediately that they were “fated mates” even though they were hesitant to take the next step. Lots of action and mystery taking place and so nice to see the whole town come together when the “chips were down”. I loved the little aside towards the end that indicate that this series is going to tie in with some of Morgan Brice’s other series. If you like urban fantasy M/M romance, you’re going to love this!!

    I'm always excited to see a new release by this author but I was very interested in seeing how the first foray into all shifters went. I truly enjoyed this first book of the Fox Hollow series and I can't wait for the next book. Liam and Russ are great together, and it was good to see them really trying to get to know each other rather than only relying on the 'fated mate' part to make everything easy.
    The world building was well done and I especially enjoyed learning through dialogue more than periodic info dumps. The supporting characters are all very well fleshed, with a lot of easy choices for next couples.
    Without giving away anything, if you like fated mates, mixed species shifter towns, fighting against hunters, dealing with previous loss of love, a feisty fox and a sweet alpha wolf, this book is for you!

    Morgan Brice is a genius creating amazing worlds with supernatural topics. This book 1 of this new series is the proof of that. The plot is intrincate but at the same time, Ms Brice made it easy to understand using human nature as the catalysts of the story. Of course what made more captivating this love story about fated mates, is that besides the sweet and romantic scenes between Liam and Russ there are a lot of interesting situations, action, danger, an evil foe, psychics, magic and different types of shifters with some perks that were new for me. Also, the many characters inside the book were developed in a masterful way with many intense and emotional interactions that made them very complete and authentic. I loved especially Liam and Russ relationship and all the little details that made it so unique, closing everything with a sweet and romantic epilogue. I can't wait to read more in this incredible series especially with the promise the author made at the end for the future apparition of familiar faces from other stories in the big world built by Morgan Brice. Simply WOW!!

    This was a fun read for the most part, but overall I felt that it lacked depth. The worldbuilding was good, and I liked this authors take on the shifters, but I also found that needed more depth. Simple things like whether humans knew about shifters, or what allowed humans to be introduced to their world weren't clearly spelled out. It seemed ok for spouses to know, and Liam told his boyfriend that he was a shifter when they hadn't been together a long time and weren't living together, but then we're told that it's meant to be a secret and they're not to expose themselves to humans.

    The characters were likeable, and were well developed which was definitely assisted by the alternating POV. What we did miss was what happened between Liam and Russ with regards to the mating bond - what it felt like when they actually bonded, could they communicate telepathically, feel each others feelings etc. It was all glossed over - they mated and then we skipped immediately to the epilogue.

    While the storyline flowed well, I wasn't quite clear as to whether this was supposed to have some mystery and intrigue with the Huntsman, or whether it was so obvious by design. Sometimes it read like we were meant to be trying to figure out who was behind it, but I found it glaringly obvious who was involved. I also found the story missed closing out some loose ends (like the couch - they completely messed it up, said they were going to clean it up the next morning but got the emergency call so it never got cleaned and was never mentioned again - simple things, but things that were specifically called out and then left hanging). And where did Drew keep going any time Russ and Liam were at the cabin? We never see Drew there when Liam is, and shenanigans occur all over the house and they never get caught or teased by Drew.

    Overall it was still a fun read, and I can see a clear setup for Drew and Noah, but I also found it easy to put down. I would suggest it's a good read if you're after something light with shifter themes that doesn't make you think too hard.
