About this listen

As the landlord of The Dragon's Lair and leader of The Black Dragons Motorcycle Club, Axel Carmichael has seen it all and done it all. He's a respected and experienced dom. Nothing shocks him anymore, and nobody catches him off guard.

When Bayden rides up to The Dragon's Lair on a bike worth more than most men earn in a year, and immediately demonstrates that he has far more attitude than sense, it's easy for Axel to write him off as a silly little rich boy who's about to get himself killed.

But, there's more to Bayden than meets the eye. He's no silly little boy, rich or otherwise, and werewolves aren't easy to kill.

I enjoyed the first 15hrs of this audiobook, however it became really repetitive and the last 5hours was a struggle. To be honest , if i'd have read the ebook i'd have skipped a lot. However the great narrator kept me listening.

Nice but WAY too long

I loved this story when I read it last year. Chris Clog is a new narrator to me, but I felt he did a stellar job with this. It was always very clear who was speaking, or even if they weren't speaking, just thinking. He imbued the story with plenty of emotion, and I think he was the perfect choice. Will definitely listen to this again.

Great performance!

The world building in Axel’s Pup is absolutely phenomenal. Kim Dare creates a lore, language, culture, value system around werewolves and then positions them as second-class citizens. The implications reverberate in the relationship between Axel and Bayden. This story is about how our protagonists choose to communicate oh so slowly and agonizingly and painstakingly to bridge their inter-species divide, class divide and Dom/Sub divide. With Axel’s maturity and Bayden’s trust, together they develop a very engaging relationship. This is a long, slow burn romance but hold on for the final three chapters because you had best believe that they are beyond gratifying?!? Yas! Nuanced. Elegant. Edited to Perfection. The author absolutely stuck the landing!! Kink is most definitely not my thing but the way that Ms Dare explores it in AP is emotional: I felt it! I appreciate the pleasure in ‘kinky’ sex for those who play, the desire for the restraints, denials, gear, accessories etc. and the attitude and sub-culture surrounding BDSM. No, I am no expert but I am richer from reading about it!

🎧 I found this book because I was searching for everything narrated by Chris Clog – I do enjoy his voices particularly a ‘bright’ baritone (though he did not use that voice for Axel as l had hoped!) However, he absolutely and assuredly nailed Axel and Bayden: I just cannot over emphasise how perfectly pitched his performance was. CC's vocal acting conveyed the different emotions – negative, positive, sensual, heartbreaking - and listen for Bayden's growth in confidence in the final chapters! Mr Clog's narration is damn near flawless.

🥳 The Best Dom/Sub Depiction. Ever!!

i love the moment when you're walking along and forget the headphones are in and nobody else is listening and a line is delivered so week that you burst out laughing and everyone looks at you like you've escaped from the loony bin or you actually say oh no and cover your mouth.. that's how this book had me feeling totally recommend it x

i love it
