Historia
When my parents were murdered in cold blood, life became a shock in more ways than one. Obviously, my parents were sheltering me, and for good reason. Not only am I a dragoness, but there’s also a slightly insane-sounding prophecy. Something powerful has been asleep inside of me, lurking in the shadows. My spine is tingling, how about yours? I’m supposed to save the world. But first, I have a score to settle. Oh, and to fulfill the prophecy, I’m supposed to take on a mate. Or…more accurately, mates. As in, more than one. My inner beast is super-excited about it.

Quick read er…listen
Revisado: 05-08-25
Great quick story about a young woman coming into her powers. The spice begins closer to the end. There’s a lot of telling in this one and there is still the mystery of her powers unraveling. The one drawback to this is the juvenile way the main character thinks and behaves; it’s difficult to take her power level seriously.
Also wish this was a duet-why have two narrators if you don’t utilize them well?

Historia
I had my chance to run from these brutal boys, and I didn’t take it. The bonds between us are too strong now. Bonds of blood, oaths, betrayal, and vengeance. And I intend to make good on all of them. I’ve made my list. And I won’t stop until each and every one of their crimes has been paid for.

The hype is delusional
Revisado: 04-20-25
Things that were good: the narrators.
Things that were terrible: the rest of it.
Besides this being ridiculously slow paced and long, not much actually happens in this book until about 80% through. Trust me- nothing moves the plot until then. The FMC equivocates between forgiveness and making the mmcs pay, while the mmcs vary on wanting forgiveness 🤷🏽♀️ each and everyone is a hot mess.
The ultimate problem with this series is the authors have decided to make a high school drama dark. It isn’t done well and comes off as hatred of women ill versed. I said what I said. The hype surrounding the “twisted sisters” has yet to be fulfilled in the third series I’ve read.

The truth
Revisado: 03-31-25
You will hate Sienna and her pack. You will hate everything that they do to her and that she allows them to do. Don’t be fooled by the reviews saying their hearts hurt for her. I’m WARNING you now that every single thing this author wrote isn’t omegaverse per se, but neither does it qualify as a dark omegaverse/ romance. I’d say the alleged “good intentions” of her pack is what keeps this story from being all dark. With that said, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Is the writing good? Sure, especially if you’re a fan of pulling your own hair out. Was the narration good? Yes. So much so that I want to uppercut a few characters that were voiced too well- iykyk; but I digress. Keep your Kleenex, boxing gloves and Tylenol handy.

Historia
Myomi Ford has been unlucky in love since she experienced her first crush. Although in a new relationship, she has an unsettling feeling that her current man Xion is just like the others. But without proof, she is left wondering, suspecting, and predicting, which has naturally caused a rift in her relationship. All the beauty has ever wished for was for someone to be about her and love her as deeply as she loved them. At the moment, however, that seems impossible to find.

Not what I expected
Revisado: 02-16-25
Firstly, the narration was great! Secondly, Ocean was crazy af! The only way I could finish this story is to chalk it up to him being an alpha male with his fated mate. Keeping that in mind, he’d do anything to lock her down and protect her no matter the cost. This is common in most romantasy books and I felt that applied here as well. Otherwise his actions would be incomprehensible in real life.
My advice is to enjoy the ride and the morally gray story as opposed to tanking the review because you disagree with his actions.

It was okay
Revisado: 02-11-25
Lately it seems that all I’ve been reading are mediocre storylines. This one is just okay. Stephanie rose tends to do men’s voices better than her female ones. It’s always the same tone no matter what book she’s narrating. So prepare thy ears to listen to whiny female Cailou!

Low angst
Revisado: 02-06-25
I love a good omegaverse with low angst and drama. There were no miscommunications that led to blowups between the characters. There was no one being kidnapped or abused for their designation. It was truly a sweet story with a twist. My only problem is the repetitiveness of whole paragraphs. It reminded me of my college days padding an essay that had to be a certain length.
Loved Lilly, Ben and the men.
The female narrator didn’t do the male voices so well. They all sounded douchey. The male narrator was fantastic and saved the book. I wish most audibles were duets.

Historia
Working for my ex-boyfriend? Sure. But falling for him again? That's a deal breaker. Dancing around my office in my bra isn't exactly the way I'd have chosen to run into my ex for the first time in 12 years, but what can I say? Wes Lake has always had a knack for showing up at the most inopportune times. Unfortunately, he also has a knack for leaving. That's why I've made every effort to put him out of my head - and my heart. But this time, he needs my help.

Long for no reason
Revisado: 02-03-25
When the book first began, I thought, “why not?” So I kept listening waiting for that moment to be 100% hooked and needing to know the outcome. That point never came. I grew more and more frustrated with the idea of a grown woman being so hung up on events that occurred in high school. Her age wasn’t believable from the pure self-centeredness and emotional maturity. The FMC wasn’t very likable. I have a headache now from listening to her inner thoughts and actions for so many hours.

Historia
It started as a normal birthday celebration. Was there wine? Of course. Did I let loose with my best friends? Absolutely. Did I have one glass too many and follow a tattooed bad boy into a bar? Cue mortification. I don't do reckless, or wild nights of hot sex. Correction: I didn't used to. I also didn't plan to drunk-email my boss and quit my soul-sucking job, leaving me in a financial mess. But I'm churning those lemons into lemonade! I'm chasing my dream job at San Francisco's hottest restaurant. Guess who shows up as my competition? None other than my tattooed bad decision.

A solid read
Revisado: 01-30-25
A bit too long for the plot- so we end up having repeated issues for the sake of lengthening the story. The author made simple miscommunications drag on and on. One party never opens up and speaks to the other about difficulties in their relationship. I tend to rate these stories lower since it’s a personal pet peeve of mine.
The female narrator wasn’t very good. Sure she did other female voices but there wasn’t enough emotion conveyed. The male was good.

New town. New school. Same lies. This is my senior year, and not only have my parents moved me to a new place where I know nothing and no one, they are determined to make me fall in line with the life they want me to have. Not the life that I want. I'm looking for any possible way to escape this prison and leave them behind. Which has been harder than I thought. An opportunity to escape appears. And I'm going to take it. I'm going to use four so-called perfect guys in this new town to make it happen. The ones that have it all, or so everyone thinks.

4 hours in and I couldn’t do it anymore. What I know so far: our FMC is an only child that just turned 18 and is a PK (preacher’s kid) and freshly moved to CO. She thinks her parents are apathetic at best and wants to get away. She whines a lot. Decides she likes photography and wants a full ride scholarship to get away from said parents. Her parents are having sketchy meetings with questionable ppl that she can’t determine if it’s for the church or not. She also wants to take secret photos to 1) expose certain students from school 2) complete her portfolio for the chance at the scholarship.
About the time where she’s caught taking photos of someone at a party and leaves with boys she’s didn’t go with, I questioned why I cared. It was at this point I DNF’d.
It’s boring. It’s juvenile. It’s not for me and I don’t know how it has so many good ratings.
Also, the voices are terrible 😬 the first male voice done is with a sultry feminine purr. It was incredibly off putting.

Terrible Narrator
Revisado: 01-02-25
It’s an okay story. The narrator is annoying. Every male voice she does sounds like a hillbilly from the backwoods of some obscure town. She adds a very hard “eh” sound to the end of all sentences.
The story itself was a bit all over the place. I kept listening to the first 2-3 chapters repeatedly wondering what I missed, but there was nothing; the plot points just weren’t coming together very well. It was a terrible premise to begin with anyway and it didn’t make much sense that the original deception would work.
The FMC is very insecure about everything, except her outrage, and as a result we have the makings of a miscommunication trope. I hate these. The ending almost makes up for the mess of a story, which is why I rated it a 3 instead of 2.
