Think of England by Rebecca Fairfax
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Dr Eleanor Maxwell has worked in shifter integration so when a new shifter/human initiative is launched she agrees to lead it however at that time she did not realise that it meant that Gerri Wilder would be travelling to the UK in order to match prominent shifters with their human mates. Before she can protest she is matched with two devastatingly handsome and powerful twin gryphon shifters who are Ludo and Jago Calter. The two brothers are not interested in serving their country as much as the fact that she is their mate and they are determined to claim her. They will start with a date but the is not for negotiation. However, Ellie is from a completely different world and will do everything she can to not let them have their way in everything.. Can they come to some kind of compromise and get the HEA they all deserve?

This was a pleasant shifter story where there was the necessary misunderstandings, danger, drama and determination that all came together in several explosive events. Gerri Wilder plays a minimal role in this story but I guess if nothing else it confirms that they are mates. Well written and easy to read and understand. Contains explicit sexual content.

Celtic Knot by Rebecca Fairfax
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lyla Edwards takes a break from her busy corporate lifestyle in Ireland and meets Gerri Wilder who was her mother's friend and needs to talk to her. After the revelations from Gerri about her heritage she is shaken and so goes on a boat trip where a dolphin pulls her into the sea. When she meets a gorgeous guy and then is fished out of the sea by a gorgeous guy she feels that her bad luck with men might be turning. Hart’s as tall, blond, and protective as Caelan is lithe, dark, and mischievous. They’ve been a couple for more years than seems possible—but it is because Hart’s a stag shifter and Caelen’s an aes sí, a member of the fair folk - looking for their third, they’ve found her in Lyla as the chemistry between the three is off the charts and the wild, inventive sex that involves things Lyla’s never even heard of, is out of this world. Literally. But the real world breaks in when Lyla’s only shot at saving her family real estate company means developing Doire Woods. As if that isn’t heartbreaking enough, Lyla discovers that meeting Hart and Cae wasn’t a lucky chance—events were manipulated from the very start. Now, with secrets all around her and not knowing if her feelings are real, how can Lyla trust again?

This was a strange story that was actually quite interesting in places. I liked the links to Irish folklore and the ecological choices that she was keen to do in order to save the wood (a parallel to saving the planet). It did contain a lot of explicit sexual content. Easy to read and understand.
