How Howls Romance Began
The Howls Romance series kicked off in 2017, born from a collaboration among prolific paranormal romance authors eager to blend classic romance tropes with the primal energy of shifters. Inspired by the success of shifter romance and the timeless appeal of Harlequin-style narratives, authors like Jessie Lane and R.E. Butler crafted standalone stories that share a cohesive universe. Each book introduces fresh characters—wolves, bears, dragons, and more—while maintaining the series’ signature mix of passion, danger, and happily-ever-afters.
The series’ loose structure allows authors to explore diverse settings and shifter types, making every story a unique adventure. With no strict chronology, readers can jump in anywhere, though the first book, The Alpha’s Secret Family, set the tone with its blend of romance and suspense.
The Heart of Howls Romance
At its core, Howls Romance is about love that defies boundaries—between humans and shifters, or against sinister forces threatening fated bonds. Key titles showcase this dynamic. The Alpha’s Secret Family (2017) follows Dia, a human hairdresser, and Stone Blaylock, a wolf shifter, as they navigate a new marriage and dark threats. In The Werewolf Tycoon’s Baby (2017), Melissa Hill’s fiery vacation romance with billionaire werewolf Galen Liakos sparks drama when she discovers she’s pregnant.
The Billionaire Werewolf’s Witch (2017) pairs Rachel Riordan, a witch, with Grant Hemming, a werewolf who despises her kind, in a tale of forbidden love and vampire threats. Falling for the Werewolf (2017) dives into classic romance with a shifter twist, blending humor and heart. Themes of fated mates, overcoming prejudice, and embracing one’s true self run through each story, set in vibrant worlds from modern cities to exotic locales like Greece.
The series’ style is fast-paced and emotionally rich, with steamy encounters and action-packed plots. Unlike traditional shifter romances, Howls Romance leans into classic romance tropes—think secret babies and billionaire heroes—while adding a paranormal edge that keeps readers hooked.
