Summary

Paramedic Bo Everett has seen his fair share of tragic accidents. Treating a motorcycle accident is par for the course. But when he encounters the broken and injured wolf shifter, Ryker Hill, everything he's ever known changes.

Alpha Ryker Hill is fighting for his life, and now he has more reason to fight like Hell. After all, he recognizes the sexy paramedic as his mate, and he isn't about to let him get away.

Bo has a lot to teach Ryker - in out and of the bedroom. But Ryker's hiding something - something that just might destroy everything these two rugged men have built. Can Bo help Ryker reconcile his past for a chance at a family and future together?

Get ready for a wild ride in this steamy gay paranormal romance. As the two men butt heads, the alpha and the omega fall deeper in love. Can you hang on?

An overthrown Alpha... finds his way...

Ryker almost died, and the paramedic who rescues him sees a connection. Bo is a very modern omega. He doesn’t take bull from anyone and lives on his own. He doesn’t need an Alpa to take care of him, but he finds one who is fated ro be with him. First they need to slay Ryker’s demons to truly be happy. Very interesting story, lots of heartache, a feisty omega and a true family. Loved the narration too.

as good as the ebook

The story is always 4-5 stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook. I can't listen to an audiobook without knowing the book, that's not possible for me.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, I’m over the half, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

Good

Preston Walker did a great job in combining shifter and MC. Enjoyed the characters and their journey. It felt like Barney Parkwynn was overacting, but got used to it quickly. Narration was good though, each character had their own unique voice, enc.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Great mix of MC and shifters

I loved this mix of the MC and shifter romance. Bo, the omega was as tough and strong as the alpha Ryker and it was great to watch these two figure out how to be together. Ryker had to learn how to deal with Bo's strength and would eventually come to realize just how necessary it is for both partners to be complete and independent people. The hurt/comfort aspects were very well done and the outside threat from Rykers old gang made added additional tension to the romance. Plot and romance were nicely balanced and supported each other well. The performance by Barney Parkwynne was good and captured the flavor of all the characters well.

It was ok

Story: The story was just ok. I liked Bo enough but Ryker, not so much. I didn't really think there was much of a connection.

Narration: This one was hard for me. I have heard this narrator's work before and enjoyed it but this one was a miss for me.

Wild Ride - I struggled with the narration choices

I'm not sure how I feel about the story. I was so distracted by the narration choices - the pacing, the weird ending drag out, and other things that I can't say with 100% certainty that the story was an issue or could be better. I'm going to read the book to see.

Not for me

This is the last Barney Parkwynne narration I'll listen to. I just can't handle his voice. Also, the story was not much better. An alpha and an omega from two different worlds, only together because they knew they were fated mates. I felt sorry for Bo the entire time because Riker was such an arrogant prick. Bo's family was close to him and he couldn't even introduce his mate to them. I just couldn't get into it.

Different take on your usual shifter/MC books

I loved this version of an MC/ shifter storyline. The characters are very likeable with their issues and problems. Barney gives these characters no only their voices but their personalities as well. Great job Barney! Written well.
