About this listen

Sawyer Smith’s life is a hot mess.

Hot, because he’s found six of his eight mates. To say things are heating up between them is putting it mildly.

A mess, because he’s the Chosen One, the son of a goddess with no powers of his own, tasked with fixing the broken magic in his world....And he has no clue how to do it.

With every new layer of mystery that's revealed, Sawyer's doubts about his abilities get stronger. To complicate matters, Sawyer is growing weaker by the day. Meanwhile, his newest guardian, the one he’s calling Yellow Eyes, refuses to reveal himself.

With time running out, Sawyer's desperate enough to make a daring move -- one that's potentially deadly for him and his mates. Because at the end of the day, if there’s nothing ventured, there’s nothing gained.

Aagghh every time I think I can't fall more in love with this series I read the next book and BAM ... all the feels. Amazing story, with amazing characters. Wonderfully written, brilliant storytelling. This author has created such a wonderful world with amazing characters and plots, I find myself not wanting to leave.

Can't wait for the next one that's for sure.

So much happens! so many answers but still more questions. I found this one interesting in it's storytelling. it's a continuing story for sure but Macy leaves small openings for you to fill in the gaps and if you're anything like me and so engrossed in the story you might miss the subtile hints scattered throughout. At moments things are tense and confusing then the next a question is answered. I kind of like that Macy makes you think and puzzle while reading but at times so much is happening you can so easily get lost. This one is the gear up to a war and I'm scared for what will happen next...

So many puzzle pieces

Super addition to the series by Macy Blake. Some interesting information is revealed and the characters keeps getting better. Michael Dean did an amazing job with the narration.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Fantastic

Nothing Gained is the fourth book in the Chosen One series. It is really important to read the first three books in the series first before this one otherwise you won’t understand the plot. I also suggest reading the first three books in the Hellhound series and the short novella Double or Nothing. (I read the Chosen One series without reading these books first, and was able to follow along, but now that I’m going back and reading them, I realize how much richness of detail they add to the overall storyline.)

Wow - the twists and turns never cease. I was not expecting the accusations one of the new guardian threw at Sawyer. I think this bit of conflict and confrontation created more character development which added depth. I also know I’m just going to LOVE the newest guardian. Things are finally coming together and the bigger picture is being revealed. The next book is the last in the Chosen One series (but not the last in this world) and I’m excited to see the much anticipated conclusion.

The audiobook is narrated by Michael Dean who does a terrific job. There is a whole host of characters that span the paranormal spectrum, and Michael keeps them all distinct and unique. The audiobook production was well done and I enjoyed listening to it.

Great Continuation of the Story

In the last book, Sawyer discovered the fairy prince was not his mate (thank goodness). No, it’s the fairy prince’s bodyguard, Locke. Locke carries some deep secrets, but he’s quickly incorporated into the growing menage. He’s number six, and Sawyer is pretty sure the creature just beyond the view of the house is the seventh. He’s called by this creature, and wants to do right by him. But Dakota sees more than most, and is very wary.

Sawyer is being cared for by Cecil, but even those ministrations aren’t enough. He loses much of his power when he’s not surrounded by his mates – and there is one left to find. Will they find him in time? And why has Sawyer made the choices he has to this point? The finding of mates is proving a doable task – undoing the mess he created when he gave up his powers and took human form is not. But the final confrontation is coming, and I can’t wait to see where it leads.

Quick should out to Michael Dean who is doing an awesome job narrating this series and I can’t wait to see how it ends.

Menage, Harem…? Let’s just say hot
