Pride Stories
Shelly Laurenston · 9 novels · 1 novella · 2007–2014
Shelly Laurenston's Pride Stories opens with The Mane Event, pairing NYPD cop Desiree MacDermot with her lion-shifter childhood friend Mace and pack member Brendon, as the shifter world's mating dynamics collide with modern city life. Each entry in the series follows a different shifter couple within the same pack/pride social structure, mixing paranormal romance with comedic banter. It's shifter romance built around pack politics and mating pursuit rather than a single continuous plot.
