Alexandra Sokoloff - The Shifters

New Orleans is the home of many supernatural beings and in order to keep the peace, there are keepers. One for each species, it’s an elite group of warriors charged to keep the peace between human and the three largest supernatural species, vampires, shape-shifters and the werewolves.

Caitlin McDonald is the keeper of the shape-shifters and just like her sisters she takes her job seriously. Caitlin has always been the lone-wolf and wants to work alone on any investigation regarding her group. Now she isn’t quite sure she can handle the new threat that comes to town.

But bounty hunter and shape-shifter Ryder Mallory, shows up on her doorstep with some incredible news on the new threat. Caitlin doesn’t really trust him completely, especially when she finds out that he has a personal stake in the person they both are tracking.

Ryder and Caitlin have to work together in order to catch this killer before more humans and shape-shifters are killed.

The Shifters by Alexandra Sokoloff is the second novel in The Keepers Trilogy and a terrific book. It’s full of danger, plots and of course a steamy relationship.

Caitlin is the sister with the most resentment against the Others, because of the death of her parents. But she knows she has to find a way to deal with it, especially now her older sister Fiona is dating the vampire detective Jagger. When a new threat comes to New Orleans and beginning to attack humans all the fingers are pointing to the shape-shifter community. So it’s her job to solve the case and keep the peace in the city.

Ryder Mallory is new to town and is tracking the killer for quite some time. So he takes all the help he can get, even from the beautiful keeper Caitlin. His old buddy Jagger warns him that if he ever hurt Caitlin, he will have to deal with him, but Ryder has no intention of hurting her when all he wants to do is hold her and keep her save. The only thing he needs to do is convincing her that dating a shape-shifter isn’t so bad.

We already know the bond between the sisters is strong and despite that Caitlin wants to solve this case alone, she knows she has to accept her sister’s help in order to catch this killer. They all know their powers will be stronger when they are together.

I only can say that I really like this series and I cannot wait to get my hands on book number three, about the youngest sister Shauna.
