Terrence Mack was born poor, grew up tough, and died hard. Waking up in a sea cave with nothing but the clothes on his back and a new bullet scar was enough to convince him that wherever his death had brought him, it wasn't paradise.

But the fiercely competitive eldritch don't typically leave their lovers alive long, and aren't accustomed to taking 'no' for an answer.

Zoë Merrick lived an ordinary life until late one night, she was brutally attacked and left for dead. She survived, saved by a stranger who witnessed her undergo a physical transformation. That's not the only thing that's different. Zoë is unable to control an unexplainable energy coursing through her body. Justus De Gradi is a man who can teach her that control. He's handsome, arrogant, and not entirely human. He reveals that she is a Mage - an immortal made of light, not magic. She must now make a choice: Rebuild her life in the human world with the man who saved her, or live with Justus and learn how to use her extraordinary gifts. Justus has sworn an oath to protect her life, but can he guard her from the one man who has a right to claim it?

You think you've got some bad date stories? My last date ended with me almost being sacrificed to a Hawaiian war god. Then I found out that all the gods are real. Only they aren't really gods, they're Atlanteans. Yep, that Atlantis.They screwed up their perfect island (and sank it) then had the nerve to move in on our territory. As if that wasn't bad enough, they told us normal humans that they were gods. And we believed them.

Theron - Dark haired, duty bound and deceptively deadly. He's the leader of the Argonauts, an elite group of guardians that defends the immortal realm from threats of the Underworld. From the moment he walked into the club, Casey knew this guy was different. Men like that just didn't exist in real life - silky shoulder-length hair, chest impossibly broad, and a predatory manner that just screamed dark and dangerous. He was looking for something. Her. She was the one. She had the mark. Casey had to die so his kind could live, and it was Theron's duty to bring her in. But even as a 200-year-old descendent of Hercules, he wasn't strong enough to resist....

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
someone that can actually read with emotion and make correct breaks and stops in dialogue. Wording in this book is horrible...

WELL SORRY.... BUT I'M ASKING FOR MY CREDIT BACK
The Publisher's Summary sounded so good..... but unfortunately, IMO, that's the only thing that did because the narrator was bad, really really bad. I couldn't tell one character from another, the story sounded monotone and there was absolutely no expression in her voice whatsoever which made the characters sound boring, one dimensional and flat.
Damian, the Billionaire Playboy, only does 'one and done' relationships and he was tired and bored with his life so gets away for a few days but reluctantly comes to the aid of Leah when he sees her car had broken down in the middle of nowhere. He gives her a lift to his Yacht and does the usual 'one and done' then leaves without even saying goodbye - he just gets her escorted off the boat (such a nice guy!) and one month later she has impossible news for him. News travels fast and it brings a dedicated Assassin, hired by the Order of the Vampire Nation, after himself and Leah and their confrontation leaves him badly wounded and with only one choice left.... bring down the Order.
I felt absolutely no chemistry whatsoever between the dislikeable Hero and the 'you can walk all over me' Heroine, the sex scenes were blah, after the brief hook-up on the Yacht and the "hi honey I'm back" in his Office they were suddenly professing their undying love for each other, the plot jumped and some of the words used were just awful.... brown bumps (nipples), his saliva met my tongue (kissing), where her pubis met her gash (not sexy) etc., etc., etc. And, even after knowing Damian intimately and declaring their love, Leah often referred to him as The Vampire.... The Vampire started kissing me, The Vampire and I..., The Vampire started pushing into me.... well you get the drift - and she wasn't alone in doing this because her Grandfather, who'd saved Damian's life and they were close allies, also did it too.
Dual POV's, there was drama but I ended up just skimming through the Chapters to get to the end, I didn't think it flowed at all and I'm sure I may have already covered the narrator's part in my misery!!
Worth a credit? Errrr.... that's a Hell NO and, even if Audible was giving this book away, I would still be saying Hell NO. I don't like giving bad reviews (I could never write a book) so sorry.... but I have to tell it how I felt it.
