Lost Bastard (Dark Sparrow Novel Book 1) AUDIO BOOK by India Kells

 

4 out of 5 stars

 

Lost Bastard by India Kells is a thrill a minute ride into the underworld of crime, gangs, motorcycle clubs, and finding your way out.  The story is crafted so deliciously that you almost forget about all the horrible stuff going on with the characters.  Once inside their world, it is hard to find your way out, just like them.  Amazing storytelling and so many characters to fall in love with and to drool over.  Riding with Lazurus, Deva, and the crew can only get better!  

 

Deva Landry came from a world of violence and pain.  She found a way out.  It wasn’t an easy choice to start over with a new life.  But just all choices, it came at a price.  Now 12 years later, she is being asked to repay her debt.  Deva is thrown back into the world from which she escaped, but this time there is more than just her freedom on the line.  

 

Aleksei Voronov isn’t what he appears to be.  He appears to be a branded, muscled fighting machine.  Aleksei has also known violence and pain but differently from Deva.  When Deva and Aleksei cross paths, their pasts draw them closer together but can the past also serve to tear them apart?  Can their pasts serve the joint purpose that has brought them together in the first place?  Will they find the love they deserve in each other?

When you get drawn back into the life you thought you have left behind, will she have the courage to loss everything for love.

Deva owes everything she has to one woman who she promised in return one favour, but she she receives a phone call activating “Dark Sparrow” Deva gets worried that she will be drawn into the world she left behind.

Alexsei has fought hard in life literally as he is involved within the underground MMA fighting scene, until one day with the gym he sees her from the ring. He doesn’t know why he is so attracted to this formidable woman but he needs to get closer to her. The only problem is he is dangerous and she is innocent how can he involve her within his world.

Until one night when both worlds collide and will they ever be able to pursue the love and attraction which is there for both of them.

I loved this story as the first in the series it lays some of the groundwork for the series but it is gripping from the first word written. The story is full of twists and turns with gangs and mobsters, killings, manipulation in buckets.

The secondary character provide a great arc within the story and I loved how they all interacted with each other and love the way the story weaves and finishes off brilliantly. This is not the first book I have read by this author but this maybe the best series I have read in a long-time. I recommend this book if you love Mob bosses, strong men but even stronger female heroines.

Lost Bastard by India Kells

Narrated by Antonio Turner

Five Stars

 

Lost Bastard is the first book in the Dark Sparrows series by India Kells. I have read/ listened to most of Ms Kells books, and I think this series is going to be a favorite of mine. The suspense and action really held my attention throughout the fast paced book. Deva and Aleksei make a wonderful couple. Both are strong characters who stick together to overcome evil. As they traverse through MCs, cage fighting and the mob, they learn about each other and their families. This series is going to be amazing if this book is any indication. I hope that the secondary characters will flow through the whole series. 

The narrator Antonio Turner has a great voice. This is the first book I have listened to by him. He really brought the characters to life and I’m looking forward to hearing more of his narrations.

I enjoy this author and found myself transfixed as I listened to this book. It was emotional and I felt pulled into the story straight away. The narrator provided a real connection point and you could feel the emotional current through her tone. Enjoyed it.

Awakening by D.M. Earl

Narrated by Torii Alaniz

Five Stars

 

Awakening is the third book in The Journals Trilogy by D.M. Earl. This series needs to be read/ listened to in order. This series is rough and addicting. There are definitely some triggers in this book. It was a roller coaster of a ride from the very beginning and it never stopped. This book starts where the first book leaves off. Quinn is an amazingly strong woman who has been through unthinkable things. Stone and his crew have come to help settle the score. This whole series was full of vibrant characters. I listened to this book in one sitting because I just had to know how it ended. It was totally worth it! 

 

This book was narrated by Torii Alaniz. Her voice was mellow and easy to listen to. She really brought the characters to life. I look forward to listening to many more books by her.

This is the 3rd book in The Journals Trilogy series.  This is a Romantic Suspense and is just under 4 hours listening time.  This is a dark romance so only 18+ should listen and there are situations in the story that could also cause triggers.  This story follows Quinn, Stone, and Walker.  Due to her past, Quinn has been through the wringer and that has made her stronger.  She will do whatever it takes to keep her family safe.  Stone guided her to become who she is today.  All she wanted was to move forward and away from her past.  Stone is there to make sure Walker never comes back.  This trilogy was an intense one and the narrator did a fantastic job with it!

I am totally all in with this book! The narrator was truly fantastic in this audio as well. This book is full of twists and turns with suspense, fighting MMA, mafia and mobsters. I loved the spark between Aleksei and Deva. Having a strong female character with Deva, I enjoyed her spirit no non-sense style. Deva comes back from being away as a favor and has to get close to Aleksei whom has some dark ties. This book is just so fantastic, cannot wait to continue this series.

Flash Point: Nite Fire Volume 1 AUDIO BOOK by C. L. Schneider – Review by Kerry Baker

/0 Comments/in , /by

Flash Point: Nite Fire Volume I Audio book by C.L. Schneider is an exciting and detailed fantasy story that I was pulled into from the start. The opening chapter of this book was so well done, I knew I wouldn’t be able to leave this book without finding out what was going to happen.

I  love all the myriad of characters, it made the book so diverse. And the blending of fantasy and reality was done effortlessly.

The narrator for this book has to be my favourite by far! The enthusiasm and passion that went into her telling of the story was just amazing. I think even if the book hadn’t been exciting she would have made it so.

Everything about this book is absolutely perfect and I cannot wait to start the second.

The Cadence Duet

Book 1

AUDIO BOOK 

By Dakota Willink

☆☆☆☆☆

This is a full length contemporary romance. Great story for your young adults, and the romantic readers.

Cadence Riley has focused her life around school and her job.  Camp Riley is owned by her parents, and a great place to work. She does not have time for relationships or boys. She works hard and stays out of trouble. Fitz Quinn is a spoiled brat, and the son of a rich politician. Sent to work at the camp by the courts. He comes with an attitude and the thought of all the girls he could get before returning home. What waits for him is not a choice, it’s a demand.  Can Cadence and Fitz stay away from each other? Will it be work as usual for Cadence? Can Fitz get through camp and return home, without compromising his heart?

 

Dakota Willink has taken a summer camp challenge and made it fun for all.  Her characters were fun and full of questions for the young readers. A coming of age romance. I really enjoyed this story and kept thinking of my granddaughters, they would enjoy this story as well. Just a pleasure for all to read. I am looking forward to reading book 2, where I am sure this story continues for Cadence. Well done Dakota Willink! Well Done!

Holy Cow I loved listening to this book, the narrator did an outstanding job with bringing the characters to life. I could listen to him all day long.

India Kells does it again with this great audio. The story pulled me in and didn’t let me go until the very end. The Narrator was a good choice for this book, I don’t listen to male narrators very often but Antonio Turner did a great job. He has a nice voice and i lost myself in the story and his voice. The drama, suspense and romance kept me coming back and the characters made stay. I will listen to more by this author in the future and i wouldn’t mind listening to this narrator again too.
Happy Listening!

I was excited when I saw this audible and couldn’t wait to start listening to it.  I loved this audible.  The narrator pulled me into the story by tones of voice.  The characters are engaging and connectable.  I enjoyed how the narrator would use different tones for each one of them.  This was a fun story to listen to on my way to work, I hated to have to stop it.  This is a second chance romance story that will keep you coming back for more.  It is the first one in this series and I can’t wait to listen to the next one as well.  This is a story about Cadence and Fitz. Cadence is quiet and Fitz is a bad boy she shouldn’t have fallen for.  What will fate have in store for these two?  I highly recommend listening to this audible to find out.  You don’t want to miss this first story in this series.

Cadence Untouched (Cadence Duet: A Second Chance Romance Book 1) by Dakota Willink

This is the first part of a two book series about Cadence Riley and how he world gets turned upside-down one summer while working at her family’s camp and worth every minute I spent listening to it.  I got so caught up in the story listening to Zachary Webber (one of my favorite male narrators) Lacy Laurel who is new to me.  They both were able to bring the characters to life in my mind and to be honest I haven’t stopped thinking about them and what’s going to happen next.

I’m so looking forward to listening to the second book and finding out what happens to both Cadence and Fitz over the years.

Lost Bastard Audio Book by India Kells is a Dark Sparrow Novel. This is one of those books that has a bit of everything – action, romance, bad boys and so much more. The story kick straight off with a bang and barely gives you time to catch your breath.

I was drawn to each of the characters for such different reasons and they really make the book interesting.

For me however what really tops this audio book into fantastic is the narrator. He absolutely nails all the different accents and personalities. I could clearly tell each of them apart and really got a feel for them all. I couldn’t stop listening to him narrate the book.

This is fantastic book by a brilliant author and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is an author I have enjoyed from the first book of hers I picked up.  I was excited to pick up this audible.  I enjoyed the narrator’s voice and how they gave life to the characters.  With the changing of voice tones, it made the story fun to listen to.  This is a story of drama, suspense, mob and gangs, what more could you ask for in a story.  The twists and turns had me wanting to know what would happen next.  This was an entertaining story that I found to be engaging and the characters were easy to fall in love with.  I loved this audible and highly recommend it.

A Dark Sparrow Novel

AUDIO BOOK

India Kells

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ 

This is a full length novel. Set around MC’s, gangs, romance and family drama. The suspense will be your biggest reward. Not for those under 18 due to violence and adult themes.

 

Deva Landry has escaped her princess life, and her MC family as well. She has escaped an unwanted marriage, and now there is a price on her head. She must keep her head about her and keep low. Trouble comes when she is asked to take care of Aleksei, an underground fighter. That is where she could be in danger. Can she protect Aleksei as well as herself in this story? Will she survive the fight of her life?

 

India Kells you have done it again! Well wrote and loaded with twists and turns. Just when I felt it was safe to set the book down, you drop in chaos. So therefore I stayed up all night, with this page turner. I love the characters and admire the strength Deva holds. I can’t wait to start the next book in this series. Well Done India Kells! Well Done!!

Cadence Untouched (Cadence Duet Book 1)Cadence Untouched by Dakota Willink
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was amazing. Author Dakota Willink draws you into the love story and never lets you down. The sparks fly and once they do you want everything to work out for these two. The backdrop of a summer talent camp is the wonderful place to let love fly. Cadence is an innocent at 18 trying hard to get into college early while Fitz is 22 and finished college. Fitz is the all American college playboy who has been sent to this camp as a punishment from his father. Fitz has a secret that could or will destroy the bond between him and Cadence. This book kept me reading and I didn’t want it to end. I was made to feel so many strong emotions. I can’t seem to get this story out of my mind a day later. I will be searching for book 2 in this series.

Flash Point: Nite Fire Volume 1 AUDIO BOOK by C. L. Schneider – Review by Amanda Gonzalez

/0 Comments/in , /by

I’ve been looking for my next serial obsession, and I think I just found it! Nite Fire: Flash Point took me on a roller coaster ride through a new world and mystery. Dahlia Nite, hiding from her own race, now lives in the human world as a protector of sorts. A new murder has her attention, providing pieces to a puzzle Dahlia never saw coming, and brings up even more questions that she had never ventured to ask. As the world of this new series begins to take shape and readers are drawn deeper into the life of Dahlia Nite, you’ll be led deep into the mystery surrounding and threatening the existence of more than just one race. Nite Fire: Flash Point will take you down the rabbit hole and out the other side to what I’m hoping will be a just as exciting and riveting ride into the next book.

Kingdom of War (Kingdom Journals #4)Kingdom of War by Tricia Copeland
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Witches and Vampires have been at it forever and I thought that I have read all there is to this trope but then Tricia Copeland comes out of nowhere and surprises me with this gem of a series.
Kingdom of war is the 4th book in the series and I do recommend that you start this series from the beginning.
This is Hunter’s story and Tricia took us on an epic adventure with Hunter as he lives up to his vow of protecting the witch lines.
The character development is great and the storyline is well thought out. There was one or two places where I got a bit confused but it didn’t take away from the story.
The narrator also did a great job (not the voice I would fit with Hunter but still he did an amazing job)

Awakening (The Journals Trilogy Book 3) AUDIO BOOK by D.M. Earl – Review by Kerry Baker

/0 Comments/in , /by

Awakening Audio Book by D.M. Earl is the third book in the Journals Trilogy. After listening to the first two books I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this one to find out how it was all going to end! I just had to know to outcome and see if there could be a happy ending for Stone and Quinn.

I was a little bit disappointed with the story. It felt like at times that the author had resorted to adding things in for the shock factor. I don’t think this was needed at all as the story was strong enough without it.

These bits aside I did still enjoy the story. I was instantly invested in the characters again, and not just the main ones. It feels like we have got to know all the peripheral characters so well by this point that I wanted to know about them too.

This was a good end to the trilogy and it was great to get the closure on it.

The fourth book in the Kingdom Journals.  This book will keep you on the edge of your seat guessing as to what is next the entire read. Tricia Copeland has a great ability to create her world so that you feel a part of it. This was my first read by this author and while I haven’t read the first three installments, I did not for one moment feel confused as to what was going on. This epic battle of witches versus vampires can go so many ways and I love how it has played out so far. I look forward to reading more and seeing the story through the eyes of the other players in this story.

Great book with lots of action. If you love stories with witches, vampires and magic like I do this book is for you. I really enjoyed Hunter’s side of this book. Hunter was granted his powers and needs to know how to use them as he is a strong leader against the evil him and his friends are against. The story just flowed and the characters are fantastic. There were twists and turns throughout the book that keep you at the edge of your seat. This is my first book of Author Tricia Copeland’s and looking forward to going back and reading some more of her work as this book was truly fantastic! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I’m familiar with Copeland’s work and specifically this book. I enjoyed it on first read but thought the audio took it to an interesting level. I appreciated the narrator’s interpretation of the work and the depth provided to this fantasy. If you enjoy a well written fantasy, this book is one worthy of adding to your library in print and audio.

I didn’t realize when I was listening to this book that it was book 4 in the series. The book had an exciting plot and many twists and turns along the way. I was able to understand what was going on fairly well, but I think I would have been much more connected to the characters had I read at the start. I also think that the flow of the book narration could be improved a bit. I found the characters sometimes changing locations or conversations without realizing until a good way through. I think the narration could have made use of some pauses between scene changes to help this. In general, interesting book, plot was well thought out, and I need to go back to the beginning so that I can enjoy this story from the start! Excited to read more from Tricia Copeland.

By Tricia Copeland 

☆☆☆☆☆

This is a full length Paranormal fantasy. Readers of all ages will enjoy Kingdom of War. I feel the YA would really enjoy this action packed adventure. Paranormal at it’s best. 

 

This is Hunter’s story and the part he takes in the Trinity of Light. He is the leader of the teens as they search for the needed shards. As well as a coming of age fantasy.  Will Evil win over the Good? Will Hunter and the others find what they seek? Will they be on time?

 

Tricia Copeland is the author in this series. Her story is planned out perfectly. This was one fantastic rollercoaster of a ride. Fast paced and action packed. Great road trip audiobook for the whole family. This story’s characters are just who I pictured them to be, as I listened to the story. Strong women as well as strong men work together bringing this adventure to life. Well Done Tricia Copeland! Well Done! ! !

This book is packed full of such amazing writing. I was thoroughly impressed with this first book in the series. It managed to balance introducing quite a few side characters and giving them depth and backstory while not overwhelming the reader with too much to keep track of. The main characters in particular are written with so much intricacy that you immediately feel connected to them and invested in their story.

Deva, our main heroine has been hiding from a past that she is terrified of returning to but an obligation to pay off a debt pushes her to confront her past and in doing so she meets Aleksei, a fighter with an story of his own full of twists and turns. He has a sexy alpha personality but is there more to his story than meets the eye? And will Deva let herself fall for someone who reminds her so much of the past she left behind?

This is my third audible in this series which I loved listening to.  I highly suggest listening to this series in order to help your enhancement of this series.  The narrator brought the story to life by using different tones of voices and made me want to listen to more.  This is a story about dark pasts and a determination to survive.  A story of healing and learning to trust again.  The characters take suspense to a new level and a conclusion to an awesome story.  I won’t say too much about the plot as I think you need to listen to this series as it is that awesome.  I am very glad I picked up this audible and I was so excited to listen to it.  I highly recommend this audible.

Kingdom Of War Audio Book by Tricia Copeland if the fourth book in the Kingdom Journals. I would definitely recommend listening to these books in order as it is a continuation of the story.

This was such a fast paced book with a lot going on. I found that I really had to make sure I was listening as it would have been easy to miss something important. I really liked the narrator chosen for this book. He did a great job of portraying the different characters and making the book feel exciting. He definitely added to the story.

This is a really great story that I thoroughly enjoyed and it is a strong addition to the series.

Genre – Contemporary Romance, Second Chance Romance, Virgin Romance
Listening Length – 5 hours and 46 minutes
Narrated by: Zachary Webber, Lacy Laurel
Cadence
Helping my parent run Camp Riley was my number one priority. I didn’t have time for Fitz Quinn—no matter how potent his smile was. He was the spoiled son of a wealthy politician; a gorgeous troublemaker with a cocky attitude.
But the second he spoke to me, I knew I was in over my head.
My heart warned her, but of course I didn’t listen. There was something protective and good beneath the bad boy exterior that made my insides flutter. Before I knew it, I was falling hard and fast.
Fitz
I wasn’t prepared to meet a girl like Cadence.
She was shy and innocent—and nothing like the girls who usually flocked my doorstep.
How could I resist her mile-long blond hair and emerald eyes?
I knew he shouldn’t want her. My father already had other plans for me and a relationship with her could never go beyond the summer.
I thought our stolen kisses by the lake were only supposed to be a summer fling.
Falling for her shouldn’t have happened.
But it did.
Now the clock is counting down until I have to return to the hell that awaits me in Washington D.C.
As September drew closer, I wasn’t sure if I could survive the end of everything I’ve come to love.
