Summary

Jin Rayne is having trouble adjusting to the new life he’s supposed to love. Instead of adapting to being the mate of tribe leader Logan Church, Jin can't get past the fact that his lover was straight before they met. He's discovered the joy in belonging to Logan but fears his new life could disappear at a moment’s notice, despite Logan's insistence that they are forever, end of story.

Jin wants to trust Logan, but that desire will be put to the test both by a rival tribe leader and by a startling revelation about Jin's existence. At stake is Jin's life and his place in the tribe. If he's going to survive to see Logan again, he'll have to release his fear and freely accept the bond, for only then can he truly trust.

Disappointing Narration

The book is excellent there's no doubt about that. I was really excited to see that it finally was released as an audiobook and I immediately bought it.



What I found though was less than satisfactory. The narrator read too quickly, like he was rushing through it, and with barely enough stops in his narrations to let things sink in. Not much diversity in the voices nor the tone of voice depending on the mood the characters were in.



Really this was a disappointment especially when compared to the first book narrated by Sean Crisden.



Also in comparison with the first book, the terminology that Mary Calmes uses in her books for the Werepanthers, maahes, semel, reah etc, are read differently too. Don't know if they were read wrongly in the first book or in the second but it'd have been better if they were kept the same as they were in the first book so that at least there would be some sort of connection between the 2 books.

good book but horrible narration

truly this series has the worst narrators, the first book was just bearable but this one is so monotone, slow with long unneeded pauses that makes the listening awkward and the whistling on the S's and T's makes it worse

Good story but

Whilst I like the story (series) I found the narration was a bit fast at times and it could be difficult to distinguish between the characters.

Fantastic book, audio could be better

The story is spellbinding, but the audio really need editing. There were parts of sentences repeated, a lot of the narration sounded robotic, there were dramatic pauses so long I was checking that I hadn’t stopped it in error, and the music between each chapter was annoying. I think it the recording had been altered to fit Amazon’s audio parameters too much and that altered the narrator’s voice to such a degree. You get accustomed to the monotone after a while, but it’s not ideal.

Good story

This is an interesting story. Well written and with likeable characters. The narration needs some editing.
