Summary
It's been seven years since Lexi Knight lost her brother in a tragic accident. On the anniversary of his death, her brother's best friend shows up unexpectedly - a man she hasn't seen since the funeral. He is no longer the boy Lexi once knew, but a dangerous-looking man with tattoos and dark secrets. He broke her trust and abandoned her family, yet what he reveals makes it impossible to stay angry.
Lexi has been secretly infatuated with Austin since childhood, so finding out he's a Shifter just makes him sexier. Dammit. Austin Cole has returned to the city where he grew up, and just in time. He's lived a hard life these past seven years, and the shadows of his past are threatening to destroy Lexi's family. It's time that she learned the truth about her brother, but there is a shocking twist that Austin never saw coming. Now he must protect her family when her mother and sister wind up in mortal danger. Will Lexi learn to accept the truth about who he is, and can Austin salvage a relationship from the ruins of their past?

Shifter world
What does Nicole Poole bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Good range of voices to denote the characters
Any additional comments?
Lexi is just a regular woman that we can all identify, that is, until Austin walks back into her life. Not only does she find out that he’s a shifter but she also finds that she is. With the mystery of her parentage and various other catastrophes that she keeps falling into this story will get you hooked right to the end.
As shifter books goes, this is a full bodied one, and by that I mean the author has created a whole world with plenty of characters and each one has the potential to be a lead in the next book. It is a very exciting series to sink your teeth in.

Okay-ish
This book was a bit of a mix for me. There were some parts I really enjoyed, but there were also parts that just really dragged. I also found the main female character quite annoying.
The narrator did a good job and I would happily listen to another book narrated by her.

Not a bad book but ...
This book has some great characteristics and an enjoyable storyline BUT the main character, Lexi, is as dumb as a box of frogs. As is her work colleague. The narrator has a lovely voice but not so great at some of the character voices.

Brilliant new series
If you could sum up Seven Years in three words, what would they be?
new twilight saga
Who was your favorite character and why?
I loved all the characters, they are in depth without being whiny and repetitive in their descriptions.
Which character – as performed by Nicole Poole – was your favourite?
Nicole Poole is fab. At first I thought 'wow, is she going t try and do all the voices different?' after a whiole you forget its even one person narrating the book.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I couldn't wait to keep listening, I got this book to help me settle to sleep at night and instead I ended up listening to it all the time!
Any additional comments?
Can't wait to keep reading the others in the series. Will be interesting to see if Nicole can keep up with all the different characters and do the same voices. Another fab series to hopefully get my teeth into and enjoy. I love my physical books, but have to say so far this is converting me into also being able to enjoy the world of audiobooks too!

Nice surprise.
I've had this book on my Wishlist for ages and decided to take a leap of faith while on a "book hangover" from the end of a favourite series. WOW am I glad I did! This book had everything that ticks my boxes, excellent story and world building, awesome narrator that does male and female characters well and lots of action. Well worth the credit.

I LOVED EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER, PARAGRAPH & WORD
To say my library's got a good share of Shifter books in it would be an understatement...... but I think this is absolutely THE BEST of all of them. It introduces you to a host of loveable characters who all get entwined in a really enjoyable and entertaining plot that's got everything I was looking for.
In this first taste of the fresh were-world it's very much character driven and you can't help but feel part of their world as you get to know each of them and what part they all play in this new community. Dual POV's and the Narrator did a FANTASTIC job in bringing all of events and characters to life.
Worth a credit? Oh boy is it ever, I loved it and I'm desperate for the next instalment which will be an auto buy for me.

Am I the only one?
I thought this one would have been better if it were shorter. I just got board with how slow it moved and never really related or like the main characters. I tried to speed up the narration and even that did not help, everyone else seems to love it, I wish I had, but it just was not for me.

Perfect Paranormal Series. LISTEN NOW
What made the experience of listening to Seven Years the most enjoyable?
This review is for the whole series
CHARACTERS- lovable and respectable
STORY- great pacing, romance, action, adventure, kidnappings, mysteries....
SEX- not too much, not too little and well performed
PERFORMANCE- dynamite (and I'm picky).
What about Nicole Poole’s performance did you like?
Nicole Poole is a great narrator. I hated her voice for the first 10minutes and at times the recording quality wasn't dynamite, but then a bit further into the book she BLEW ME AWAY. Her male voices are especially great. They are each unique and distinguishable but also not over the top and annoying. Her acting is terrific as well. When I listen I am completely immersed.
Any additional comments?
Dannika Dark makes the paranormal aspects of this story really great. There are a lot of books that explore the dynamics within wolf packs, but she makes the family dynamics in this pack very "real". The alpha males aren't so alpha-y that you want to smack them and say "get over yourself". They respect their women but also are macho in that sexy way you gotta love.
The author also added new types of paranormal characters that I've never heard of before and they really work. I'd highly recommend listening to the series about Mages, the first is titled Sterling. It will give more background info that intertwines nicely with these books. Also, the relationship the paranormal world has with the human world seems more believable in these books than others out there.

THAT DAMN LEAN!!!!
I was soo excited when I realized this book was coming to audible. I read Seven Years when it first was published and instantly feel in love with the story. Dannika writes a captivating story full of suspense, sexual tension, action and romance. Lexi Knight is a 27 year old adult that has been working the same job, in a candy story, for the last seven years. She also has been living in the same town since she can remember. Seven years ago, her world was changed forever when her older brother, Wes, was killed in a car accident and her father decided to leave her mother, her newborn sister and Lexi without a look back. In the midst of this crisis, Wes' best friend Austin, who has been like a big brother to Lexi, suddenly leaves after Wes's funeral without so much as a good bye to his adopted family. Seven years later, Lexi is struggling with her love life, trying to help her mom with Maisie and trying to figure out what she wants in her life when Austin walks back into the picture, with that damn lean, and turns Lexi world right side up. Buried secrets from the past finally come to light and Lexi begins to understand who she is, exactly where her life is meant to go and who she is ultimately meant to be with.
Nicole does an excellent job of telling the story with as much passion and intrigue as Dannika put into the story. To saw the next book, Six Months, is already an automatically download for me is an understatement. I hope it comes to audible soon.
IMO, buy buy buy. I know you will enjoy this book.

Disappointed😞
I think the story had potential but there were a few annoyances that will probably prevent me from continuing the series. The narrator did a great job with everyone’s voices except the main character. For some reason she sounded too old to be just 28. The main character also seemed really weak and made bad decisions when it came to defending/ taking care of herself. And then, which is a huge thing for me. How is there only one weak a** sex scene at the end of the book?!?! And that scene is so “unsexy” that you can actually skip it... So disappointing! At least it was a part of the romance package so I didn’t spend a credit for this. Just wasted my time unfortunately.

By the end, I just didn't care
Potential, didn't pan out. Narrator only had one character that she did well. I got bored and found nothing redeeming in any of the characters. Like I said, in the end, I just didn't care what happened to any of them. Female lead was weak & whiny, males were inconsistent and not very strong. I was not happy with the overall experience.

5 Seven Years Stars
Hmm this is my 4th re listen? Or more who knows. But I never reviewed this book because I didn’t think I could put into words how this book sparked my love of shifters.
Lexi is a character who isn’t sure of who or what she is, but throughout the book she gets the shock of a lifetime. But it’s more than that. She learns who she is and what she is.
She doesn’t accept it right away because it’s so far out of her realm of normal. But she knows deep down that what everyone is saying is true.
She is insecure of herself throughout a lot of this book. And sometimes I found her to be childish for a 28 year old, but what I liked is that Austin for all his awesomeness never once makes her feel childish.
He allows her to feel what she feels and for her to come to conclusions on her own.
I think I liked that best. I also love all the characters in this book, you get the sense of family and friends and that’s pretty cool.
Each character has a place and that place is within the pack/family. I love this series because of that each time I re listen I find new things I love.
This time it was how Denver takes a stance and is so very protective of Maze, but it was when he got jealous, that little step back he takes is what I loved about this listen. He is will to do what it takes for Maze. I Loved that.
I can’t say enough great things about Nicole Poole’s narration. She brings these characters to life in ways I have never heard before. She has a voice for every character in a way that its natural and effortless and that can’t be easy when you have so very many characters.
Fabulous book, amazing listening, definitely a must listen.
*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

decent story
The story was good. Not the best, but decent. I think the most difficult part was the narrators voice. She did a good job overall, but I just could not picture how the story described Lexie in the story with that voice. It sounded too old for a 27 year old.
