LION (Shifter Kings Nashville Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 56 ratings

She’s a down on her luck barback who’s had it with lions.
He’s a lion king who has thirty days to find his queen.
Life’s a rollercoaster, though, and it’s full of surprising turns ...


Lion, the future king of the lion prides in the U.S., only has thirty days to find his future queen and secure their fate. But Lion has his work cut out for him.

Jules has had it with shifters, and male lions in particular. She doesn’t need a man, even if he is a king, to mess up her life any more than her brother already has. Tired of being used and manipulated by others, she’s not just going to roll over and think of England.

It’s a good thing Lion’s not a slam-bam-thank-you-ma’am, Tennessee man. Our king’s about to show his queen that while life can sometimes be a bit of a rollercoaster ride, the best thing you can do is lock in tight and throw your hands in the air—and live, even if you do trip a bit along the way.

Warning: sweet, sexy, novella-length read ahead...
Note: This is the only book in the series with a Beta-ish alpha male. Give Lion a chance. I promise this series will be worth your while ...

    A different way for Kings of shifters to be chosen and of their queens but that just makes it more interesting. In this story Lion's birth mark has just gone dark .meaning his has thirty days to find his mate. He and his other friends who will be Kings too have met at the club to talk because they that all but two of their group will have to find their queens within the thirty days or it will pass to replacement kings and weaken their group because of his failure. Then Lion notices the barmaid but she's human so can't be his queen. He doesn't know right away that she is half lion and born to be a queen but she can't shift. By the next day he discovers why she isn't interested in shifters of any kind but lions she especially doesn't want any thing to do with and he gets upset when he finds her being hurt by one of his own. Discovering that the lion hurting his queen is her brother makes him face that she is his queen but because she can't shift how can he convince her that she is still his queen. She feels everything is happening to fast but he only has thirty days from before he met her but when they touch the feels something in his king birthmark and notices she grabs her side but tries to hide it. Lion knows that the bond has started and that both their marks will have changed to a mate mark. You get to see how they go from not knowing each other to becoming a real King and Queen of the Lions. Great story of finding yourself, your strengths,and learning to trust your mate.I think you'll enjoy the Shifter Kings of Nashville series.

    Holly Gunn's debut book is a fantastic read!! I loved Lion and his montley crew of king shifters. Lion was so stinking adorable I loved everything about him!! And Jules who was the other side of the coin for him just got together so perfectly. Just one problem Jules has a secret and would Lion be willing to still make her their Queen?
    It's a wild, incredibly sexy read!! I absolutely loved every second of Lion and am looking forward to reading the rest of the series!!

    Awesome debut book from Author Gunn. This is book 1 in the series and contains lots of background information and character building. Lion is the next in line for the throne and he has a limited time to find his queen before the next candidate gets the chance. The tattoo on his back is the sign that he is the next chosen one. But never having much luck with women didn't give him huge hope of finding his mate. Jules is a half lion/human who has never shifted but she has the tattoo that indicates she is the next queen. Will these two find each other and work it out??? Gonna have to read this fab first book in the series to find out! No spoilers here!

    Shifters have kings and kings need queens. This series starts off in Nashville, where Lion and his shifter friends only have thirty days to find their queens. If they fail in finding their perfect mate, who will help them rule their pride or pack for the next thirty years, someone else will take their place.

    This book follows Lion, you guessed it, a lion shifter who needs to find his queens in order to take over the Lion tribe in the U.S. Lion is sweet and awkward, a man of heart and greatness. He was not expecting to find his queen at his local bar. His problem ... she hates lions. Hates them!

    This story follows Lion as he courts his queen and tries to convince her that not all lions are douchebags.

    I loved this fast-paced love story. It has everything you could want from a paranormal romance; hot shifter-check, rebellious, hot heroine-check, fated mates-check, loads of steamy sex-check.

    I can not wait to see what Lion's friends are up to next and how they will find their queens.

    Jules was a bartender and her contract was for 5 years because her brother owed the owner/mobster a lot of money and wouldn’t pay so Jules had to. Lion just turned king and had to find his queen before 30 days were up or the title would go to someone else. Jules was his queen but couldn’t turn into a lion but she was attacked by some of the pride, then she turned into a lion and defended herself. So things turned out great for them.

    Lion/ie was not your typical soon-to-be king. He was bit clumsy. A little shy. And a bit geeky with his glasses and mind for numbers. It was the time for new kings to reign and Lion and his group of good friends were in line for the leadership of their prospective prides/packs/ pods ect. . .

    Jules was strong, independent, determined, and under her brother's debt. She was more than she appeared to be on the outside. She was so much more than you could see just by watching her for a bit. Jules had a hidden strength that came to her aid in time of need. This king and queen have strenght that none in the pack can attempt to match.

    Come along and meet this group of friends that make a difference in the new regiem of shifter leaders all starting in Nashville. The courtships/claiming are quick and time is of the essence. Come see the series that give you several guys and gals to fall for and more.

    The story is a little different and I liked it. I liked how Jules is definitely not a damsel in distress and I like Lion even though he's a little clumsy.
