About this listen
A Small Town Second Chance, Fated Mate Shifter Romance
She escaped before he could claim her. Now he’s tracked her down, and he won’t let her go again.
Winter never had a choice. Forced into marriage with Sean Campbell, the ruthless alpha of an enemy clan, she knew her fate was sealed. But she refused to let him mark and claim her as his own. The moment an opportunity arose, she ran, disappearing into the night before he could bind her to him forever.
With nowhere safe to turn, she fled to Mystic River, Alaska, a sanctuary for shifters. There, she carved out a new life, far from the shadow of her past. As part of Colby Reynolds’ band of spies, she’s finally found purpose, independence, and a future where she answers to no man, especially not Sean Campbell.
But Sean never stopped searching. She was his fated mate, and no force on earth, human or shifter, would keep him from claiming what was his. After years of hunting, he’s finally found her. And now that he has? He’s not leaving without her.
Winter swore she’d never be his. But Sean isn’t just an alpha, he’s a snow leopard shifter. And snow leopards? They never back down from a challenge.
Welcome to Mystic River, Alaska, where shifters roam free, fated mates burn hot, and no one escapes destiny.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
A shifter with a hidden gift. A vampire with a deadly past. Some secrets should never be revealed. Mercy Bowen has spent her life in the shadows, protecting others as part of the Shadow Sisters and hiding a power no one can ever know about. As a falcon shifter, she thrives in the sky, where no one can touch her. But one fateful night, she encounters Hunter Hayes, a predator unlike any other. There’s something darkly magnetic about him, something that calls to her wild nature… something that whispers of danger.

There was right, there was wrong, and then there was the in-between. The place where normal people reside, understanding that there are two sides to every coin. People that do bad things for good reasons. People that do bad things for bad reasons. First, I knew that Shasha Semyonov was a bad man. One that did bad things for bad reasons. That didn’t mean that I was rational when it came to him.

Nothing
I read a lot of DJ novels and enjoy mostly all of them This one was a little more milder than the other ones I have read There are some I know I would enjoy more than this one I do not like listening to SM narrative. Gives me a headche, no lie the way he reads and tries to interact with the way he thinks the charactors should talk is so off Pauses to long between sentence and is heavy on exclamation. He just ruins a novel.
