Publisher's summary

I need more magic like I need a point-blank bullet to the head.

All that dragon power Rhett’s already given me is churning around inside me, causing as much trouble as the great poohbah dragon protector himself, and he’s trouble walking in a pair of perfectly fitting jeans.

Regardless of my desires, and I’ve got lots of them thanks to the two men who won’t stop shooting suggestive looks my way, more magic is exactly what I’ve got—plus a whole band of dragon shifters without it, heh, pointing fingers at me for taking what they think is theirs. Oopsie.

Still, no matter the hissy fits they throw, finders keepers, losers weepers applies extra when it comes to power. Especially since I’ve got no idea how to give any of it back—or how to properly use it either, for that matter. And that’s before Zeke wants to share some of his magic with me...

Oy. These men are intent on driving me batty.

Life in Traitor’s Den, usually crazy enough to keep me on my toes, has never seemed quite so over-the-top outrageous. Denners and our unexpected guests are keeping me busier than a cat on a hot tin roof. When you add in all the resurrections, well, bring on the extra nuttiness.

But when saving my best friend Birdie’s life involves her kissing Zeke, my quasi-vampire, my man, I wholly embrace the unofficial motto of Traitor’s Den: “Behaving is for losers.”

Honey, I ain’t no loser.

Armed with my girls Big Bertha and Big Wilma, the best six shooters a woman could ask for, I’m off to protect what’s mine.

Now, if only that list weren’t growing...

* A sexy fantasy Western with growly shifters, sketchy vamps, peculiar mages and creatures, and one badass cowgirl sheriff. Within this small town, magic and gossip flow as freely as whiskey, and work and pleasure are nearly the same thing. Weird things happen on the regular in Traitor's Den. Come and join the quirky family, where everyone's packing. Oh, and don't mind the tiger.

* Loretta Maybelle Ray is hot stuff. When several fine cowboys vie for her affections, this series becomes a reverse harem.

* Though this series does not contain curse words, but rather a comical variation of them, it contains slow-burn romance that eventually leads to sex with more than one man.

* Each book in the Six Shooter and a Shifter series is a full-length novel that ends on a cliff-hanger. However, a happily ever after is guaranteed for the series finale.

Another fun installment

These books are so much fun! This book brings so much more to Traitors Den. There’s so much revealed in this story as well as some laugh out loud moments that will have you in stitches. With a hunky vamp and shifter, Loretta has her hands full. Now she’s saving her bestie, defending the town and trying to not die from all the magic in her system. I mean what else can happen! So much! Narrators nailed it! Just nailed it.

I just can't!!

**SPOILERS**



Okay I tried. I really did. I have too many issues with this book. The plot is awesome. I love it. What I can't stand, and seems to never be addressed, is the "cheating" Lo's "mate" makes out with her best friend to save her life? I've read a lot of vampire books and NONE of them have required the vamp to make out with someone to change them. Not only that but, the description of them going at it went on FOREVER! After officially pissing me off for it lasting as long as it did, THERE WAS NO EXPLAINATION!! After, when they all body swapped, there was so much flirting going on between the men and other women from the Den. NOT TO MENTION THERE IS STILL NO SMEXY SCENES!!
I DNF any book where there is cheating within the harem. If there was at least an explanation or an apology, I could possibly get past it. This book ruined the series for me and I will not be finishing it.

The only saving grace for this series is the narrators. I absolutely LOVE Bridget and Jake. I'd listen to anything they put out.
