There’s Emerson, the devastatingly handsome tech billionaire and single dad who swears he doesn’t do relationships. Then Ashton, a tall, lean heartthrob with a HAF man bun, who needs a date for society galas to keep his biggest secret: he was once in love with Ford.

I was a workaholic executive—until I almost died. It took a near-death experience to get my priorities straight, And I knew big changes had to be made. Priority #1 was spending more time with my kids and mother, So I quit my job and bought a beach house on Cape Cod. With the sun on my face and my toes in the sand, I met one of the beach rangers, Who turned out to be the hot single dad next door. Dylan helped me move some furniture, And I offered him dinner to thank him for his trouble— Not knowing it would end with dessert.

Story
I was a workaholic executive—until I almost died. It took a near-death experience to get my priorities straight, And I knew big changes had to be made. Priority #1 was spending more time with my kids and mother, So I quit my job and bought a beach house on Cape Cod. With the sun on my face and my toes in the sand, I met one of the beach rangers, Who turned out to be the hot single dad next door. Dylan helped me move some furniture, And I offered him dinner to thank him for his trouble— Not knowing it would end with dessert.

It was fitting that her name meant “the fiery one” because Serafina was hot! Somehow, I knew from the second I laid eyes on her in that hospital that she was going to be mine for eternity. I had a bet to win, one that would free me from the prison in which I’d been cast after being framed for a crime that my brother committed. And the stakes were higher than any I’d ever known in this life or the next. But the way I felt for Sera had little to do with the wager and everything to do with the fact she was my mate. Everyone is conspiring against us, dark forces and light but love ...

Going undercover at a mass wedding as a bartered bride, Morrigan Blake has every intention of getting off the barbaric alien planet just as soon as the ceremony is over. Or, more correctly, just as soon as she captures footage of the mysterious princes rumored to be in attendance. After a euphoric night, Morrigan discovers her ride left without her and an alien dragon shifter is claiming she's his wife. It's not exactly the story this reporter had in mind. And to make matters worse, the all-to-seductive dragon prince refuses to give up without a fight.

Great series of books!
Not only are these books cohesive within the world building but they are great standalone books. Each book though in the series and within its created world but each has a level of detachment so the reader isn't completely lost if they go out of order or cherry pick them. I recommend Meg's books all the time.

Solid collection
Narration Review- the narrator has a really nice acting style and does both male and female voices very well. Definitely clear and easy to understand.
Story review- this is a solid collection and very much worth spending a credit on. There are eleven books in which the main romantic characters are both over the age of forty and are fated mates. All of the books are very good, with characters who are easy to relate to (especially if, like me, you are over forty, and believe me, it’s wonderful to have representation).
The book that really stands out to me is CURSED MIDLIFE BEAR. That is a five-star book with the tropes of One Night Stand and Surprise Pregnancy. The characters must figure out how to break a multi-generational curse to save their baby’s future. I liked that one especially, but I enjoyed all of the books in this collection.

A Great Collection
Fated over Forty: The Complete Series Collection, if you are going to listen to this collection give yourself about 10 days as it is about 54 hours long. I enjoyed listening to the eleven different stories in this great collection. They are all worth listening to as each couple couple in their 40's work towards their happy ending. I enjoyed listening to D.C. Cole narrate these stories.

Awesome
Fated Over Forty follows a clan of bear shifters that find their mates later in life. There's plenty of drama, danger, action, adventure, sexy bear shifters, strong sassy women, steam fated mates, and HEA. The audiobook for this collection is done very well and is narrated by D.C. Cole. I love listening to his soothing voice as he narrates this audiobook.

Hot and steamy collection of shifter romances
Hot and steamy collection of shifter romances, exploring love, resilience, connection, rediscovery, family, and second chances. Each tale features strong, mature characters finding their second chance at life and love, woven into a world of shifters, proving that it’s never too late to find your place or your person. Contains 11 books from the series, but does not include the prequel, "Alpha's Midlife Baby."
Bear's Midlife Midwife:
Story: Liz, a strong and independent woman, is living her life after a divorce and starting a new career path as a midwife and Reiki healer. One night, Tyler, a bear shifter and the beta of his clan, urgently seeks her help when his sister-in-law faces complications during childbirth. Liz assists and witnesses the birth of a bear cub instead of a human baby, discovering the secret of the shapeshifting bear people. The clan wants to keep their existence hidden, and some members become a threat to Liz's life. Tyler, feeling responsible for Liz's safety, becomes her bodyguard and they grow closer while living together under the same roof. However, Tyler pushes her away, carrying the weight of his past and resisting their bond. Despite their attraction and the undeniable connection between them, they both struggle to accept their fate and embark on a relationship. As danger looms, Tyler must protect Liz from those who want to silence her, and Liz must learn to open her heart and overcome the challenges they face together.
Audio: The pacing of the narrator, D.C. Cole, was fine, good annunciation, though sometimes words seemed to go soft at the end. The narrator did a good job with voicing different male voices, but I rarely am happy when a male narrator is used to voice female characters' dialogue and this was no exception.
Bear's Midlife Baby:
Story: Jenna (h45) moves to a new town after a breakup to start a new life and open her own business. On New Year's Eve, she meets Chase (H35) and they have a passionate night together, but the next morning, Jenna leaves before Chase returns, assuming he's not interested in her. To her surprise, Jenna discovers that she's pregnant, and even more shockingly, she learns that Chase is a bear shifter. When she meets Chase again for a business meeting, she mistakenly believes he's involved with another woman and decides to keep her pregnancy a secret. Meanwhile, Chase is determined to pursue a relationship with Jenna and build his dream brewery, but his ex keeps interfering. Misunderstandings and insecurities threaten to keep them apart, and Jenna worries about the pregnancy and Chase being a shifter. Lovely OWYM shifter, fated mates, secret baby romance with plenty of heat and relationship angst.
Audio: The pacing of the narrator was fine, good annunciation, though sometimes words seemed to go soft at times. The narrator, D.C. Cole, did a good job with voicing different male voices, but I prefer when a female narrator is used to voice female characters' dialogue, and this was no exception.
Bear's Midlife Matchmaker:
Story: Newly divorced and navigating life as an empty nester, Carrie (h) is ready for a fresh start and she's swapped the bustle of city life for the charm of small-town Carlton, Oregon. Hosting a Valentine’s Day speed dating event seemed like a perfect way to promote her therapy practice, until she meets Pax (H), who sparks a connection Carrie wasn’t expecting. As a bear shifter from a close-knit clan, Pax has big secrets and has spent years avoiding complications, especially romantic ones. But Carrie’s warmth and strength prove irresistible, drawing him to her even as a dangerous feud with a rival clan threatens to unravel everything. When their worlds collide in a battle of survival, Carrie discovers the truth about Pax and has to face her fears about trust and the unknown, even as Pax struggles with his feelings of rejection and the challenges of blending his shifter life with his love for a human. Hot and steamy midlife bear shifter, second chance romance, exploring unexpected love, new beginnings, vulnerabilities, commitment, forgiveness, courage, acceptance, and overcoming differences.
Audio: Narrator D.C. Cole does a great job with Pax and other male voices, and a good job with Carrie's voice - I personally prefer a female narrator is used to voice female voices. The audio quality is good and there were no issues.
Bear's Midlife Second Chance:
Story: Single mother Rebecca's (h) life is anything but simple when she returns to her small hometown of Carlton, Oregon, to care for her aging parents, manage their confectionery shop, and guide her teenage daughter, Madison. The last thing she expected was to cross paths with Dean (H), her high school sweetheart, who now leads a clan of shifters, whose charm is only rivaled by the secrets he keeps, including that he's a bear shifter. When Rebecca’s long-buried shifter nature is revealed in a moment of danger, she’s forced to face a side of herself she never knew existed. With Dean’s patient guidance, she learns to navigate her new reality, all while juggling family, business, and the challenges of small-town life.
