About this listen

Monsters do exist... and they're the good guys. Lillian Rosewood leads an ordinary, boring life working as the manager of a psychiatric hospital. The highlights of her day, other than her skinny hot chocolate, are the hunky guards who work in the secure section. Until a late-night emergency is wheeled in. Captain Jack Harper is insane, drop-dead gorgeous... and just had his abdomen shredded. Despite the fact they're not an emergency room, Lillian can't turn him away and risk a death on her hands. Unable to get the handsome soldier out of her mind, Lillian sneaks into the restricted area to check on him. What she finds is beyond belief. Somehow Jack has managed to heal himself from a near-fatal wound in mere hours. When one of the doctors, Walker, attempts to rape her, things go from bad to worse. In the blink of an eye, Jack is loose and Walker is dead... and Lillian must accept a truth about her rescuer that will change her world forever. What if the patients aren't insane? What if their stories of secret government experiments and monsters are true?

Warning: Contains blood, mayhem, and nude werewolves operating heavy weaponry. Large amounts of sarcasm and smart-ass vampires may offend some listeners. No civilian hospital staff were harmed in the making of this story.

Fantastic!

Loved the characters and the storyline. My only issue was that they seemed to dither when they should have been running for their lives. Less yack’n and more crack’n.

freaking cliffhanger

Wow different paranormal story. More of a science experiment. Book includes wolf shifters, vampires and zombies, yes I said zombies. Lillian is working in a psychiatric hospital and living a boring night until one night a crazed man is brought in injured and she helps to cure him. They put him in the restricted area to avoid patients. After sneaking into the restricted area Lillian is nearly raped by one of the doctors but it's saved by the crazed man, Jack. Jack, who knows immediately by her smell that she is his mate, is an alpha wolf shifter and former military. The crazy thing about this book is that all of the creatures in the story are lab made. That makes it just a little more creepy. There's a lot of funny moments, especially from Lillian whom you can tell it's to hide her fear. There's a lot of action, amazing character buildup from the rest of the team and a potential match with the enemy. It was getting good and tears were definitely pulled out and then...a freaking cliffhanger… I'm completely anxious to find out what happens next.

Very good book

Shifters are being tortured. A human female finds out what is going on. She starts figuring out how to save them.
She does save them. The alpha and her falls for each other. This is their love story, and is worth your time to read it.

Very good start!

I really liked this one. There’s a good balance of action and romance and the military angle was new and interesting. Some things weren’t fleshed out all the way - like, e. g. how do the wolves know about their one true mate if they’re a new, artificially created species and haven’t had the opportunity to go out and find one? I mean, they’ve been kept captive and only sent on missions for the military plus they’re too new to have any kind of passed down lore.
But I didn’t mind that too much and maybe there will me more of an explanation in the sequel(s) (I hope there is/will be a sequel). Heck, I even liked the multiple POVs, and right from the start, too! That never happens!

The narration was good, too. The male voices could have been a bit deeper/growlier, but that’d just been the cherry on top. I never once got annoyed or anything at the narrator (which happens when they over- or underact), she managed to keep me right there in the story, totally immersed.

So yeah, I’m really glad I gave this one a go. Definitely worth the time and credit if you like a bit of action with your romance.

That's it?

This story started off well. Government using mental facility to take their experiments whe they heal or before termination. If they talk no one would believe them. I love Lillian. She didn't take crap from Captain Jack and his "pack". They escape from the government.

What I didn't like:
1. You heard Jack and Lillian's story but too much time was spent on his second in command, Darce's story. 2 stories in one?

2. Ends in cliffhanger! The second book Blood Mate, NO AUDIOBOOK AVAILABLE. You will have to get the paperback or ebook version to know more. It will feature Darce's story. Don't know if it will finish Jack and Lillian.

3. For 6 hours and 34 minutes it would have been nice to have a resolution for Jack and Lillian.

I don't know if I will get book 2. This one just frustrated me.

ok story about experiements making paranormals

This stroy mixes paranormal beings with big bad government or pharmaceutial companies (any big impersonal business) that do experiments creating beings such as shifters. A female doctor get involved with a break out when the bad things the oranization was doing was discovered. Of course the lead female falls in love with the alpha leader whom had marked her as "his" mate. Fiighting, drama and vivid descriptions of lusty sex followed. Perhaps there will be a 2nd book but, what happens after the escape and if their "love" will survive due to her being "changed"..

Okay

It was okay. I didn't feel a connection between the characters and the story felt a little slow.
I think I would have liked it better if I could have connected with the characters.

Needs a different narrator

I honestly think that if this book had a better narrator it would be a way better book. This book comes off as cheesy, but it dose have a good plot and I truly like Minna Carter's books. That being said this narrator isn't the worst I have hear, my ears never bleed at the voices.
