/0 Comments/in , /by

This is the first audio I have listened to by this author.  The narrator pulled me into the story with the tone of voice.  The narrator made the characters come to life with each word.  It was a fun, entertaining story to listen to.  The characters are strong, lovable, and connectable. Chris Shaw opens his eyes and finds himself staring into the eyes of a beautiful woman. Mari Dias has some secrets of her own but she may be his only hope of survival.   They have one mission, to get to sanctuary but what will happen when revenge becomes more important? Can they battle the storm that is raging or will they find shelter? What will happen to them when her secrets are revealed?  I highly recommend this audio.

I enjoyed listening to this audio.  The narrator pulled me in with tone of voice.  The narrator kept it engaging and made me want to listen to more.  This is a fun, entertaining, suspenseful story to listen to, I can’t wait for the next one.  The characters in this book are lovable and connectable.  This story is about betrayal, misconceptions and seeing things for what they are. This is the story of Liv. She seems to have the best marriage to those looking in from the outside.   She overhears one of his phone conversations but what she doesn’t realize is how it will change her life from that point forward. Will she get to see another side of Alex she didn’t realize existed? He wants nothing more than to protect her but what will happen when he puts her in danger? Will this be a second chance for them or will they need to fear for their lives? All of the characters make this story flow into an action packed story. I highly recommend this audio.  I am glad I picked it up and so will you be

This is a young adult story that any age would enjoy. This is a story of fantasy brought to life by the characters. They made the story fun and entertaining to read. This is a well written story about a place called Storey. Some say it is a myth but Luella is about to find out differently. From her she takes you on a fantasy adventure of discovery. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into the story. They are engaging and I had no problem placing myself on the adventure right along with Luella. She really made a great character.
