About this listen

From number one international best-selling author and USA Today best seller Sierra Cartwright.

"This was an emotionally charged, highly sensual book with excellent characters and an intriguing plot." (BDSM Book Reviews)

"Bind was probably the best book I’ve read by Sierra Cartwright to date!" (Ms. Romantic Reads)

Book one in The Donovan Dynasty series.

Only one man can help her. Is she willing to pay his price?

Faced with the potentially overwhelming loss of her family’s fortune, Lara Bertrand turns to the one man who can help her, the gorgeous and powerful Connor Donovan.

She knows he’s dangerous to her on every level. Only desperation would drive her to make such a risky proposition. After all, she knows all about his ruthless nature and relentless determination to succeed.

When the classy, elegant Lara walks into his office with an outrageous proposal, Connor is stunned and more than a little intrigued. Ever since he first met her, he’s been attracted to the cool beauty, but she’s more than kept her distance.

Connor is absolutely willing to help her out. For a price. He not only wants her hand in marriage, but also her total submissive surrender....

Great author

While this book wasn’t as great as some of her others it wasn’t disappointing. I had no trouble with the narrator as others have but I always listen to books at around 1.7 speed.

The female cfo of a global company wants to sell off a division of the company that is hemorrhaging money. Due to a number of circumstances she asks her best friends brother to marry her so he can take over the division. She doesn’t realize he’s a dom or what a bdsm lifestyle will look like. They grow together as he teaches her. Plausible storyline and likable characters.

Good Story - Poorly Read

I've read this story in book form and loved it but did not like the audio. The reading is stilted and, in places, pronounced as if English is a second language.

One of Cartwright's Best

One of Cartwright's best. I read the book nonstop & liked it so much, I could hardly wait to hear it on audible. Only down side was the performer. I hated her voice, clipped way of speaking and lack of emotion. American women don't talk that way. It was difficult to get as enthralled in the audio version as the book.

You’ve been warned, READ the book

I usually enjoy Sierra Cartwright’s writing so I took a chance on this book despite the reviews. It was a mistake. The narration is flat, it lacks emotion and there is little differentiation between the voices. There are also occasional, and jarring, mispronunciations.

I’d suggest reading the book rather than listening.

Terrible Narrator

Unfortunately, I have been barely able to finish this book and probably won't buy the next one due to the narrator. She enunciates every letter and it makes her sound like a robot. There are emotional moments in the book, and there is no emotion in her voice.

Great story, terrible narration

This is the first book I've read by this author and I loved Connor and Lara. His style of D/s is awesome as his primary concern is always his sub. Lara's exploration of D/s is delightful to read and how she loves Connor's dominance is a joy to read about.
Due to his emotionally stunted psyche it takes nearly the entire book for him to recognize what is going on inside his heart. But in the end, love conquers all. Great read.

I hope this author will have more offerings on audible.com soon!!!!! I would recommend Sierra Kline for the narration.

Don't bother

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book! Listening to it, however, was actually painful. I barely made it past the first chapter. The narrator completeLy ruined it for me. It sounded stilted; like she was reading instead of telling a story. I'm going to attempt to return the bookI

I loved the story but the narrator absolutely ruined it. Read the book do not get the audio book! I hope to god they get someone else to do the other books in this series because this one is terrible.

Okay story, terrible narrator

I’m normally pretty tolerant when it comes to different narrators but I just couldn’t take this. I had to stop after about an hour. It was monotone, no differentiation between the male and female voices, and she kept over enunciating her t’s - no one talks like that!

That said, I did end up reading this in my kindle and it was good. Kind of predictable, but worth a read.
