Publisher's summary

Half man, half angel, all soldier.

The souleaters will stop at nothing, even death, to uphold divine law. When duty brings Noah Kavanaugh into Nurse Caroline's path, he is unprepared for the intense desire igniting between them. Rejecting the impulse to take Caroline as his mate becomes unbearable. The limits of his own self-control are tested. So is his loyalty to the law he upholds.

A forbidden human, Caroline is determined to find a cure for the mysterious Noah's illness. With her blazing attraction to him, she'd willingly sacrifice her heart, body, even her life to end his suffering. However, can she bring herself to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to save them both?

Amazingly good

This story is amazingly good. It has so manytwists and turns that you end up totally focused on listening to what is happening and wondering what will be next. I can’t wait for the next in series.

Paranormal Romance, with emphasis on the romance!

Black Soul: The Forbidden Series, Book 1
By: Odessa Gillespie Black Narrated by: Terri England, Erik Johnson

Black Soul is definitely a Paranormal Romance, with emphasis on the romance! There is some morbid and evil parts braided into the romance, but the romance is the heart of it all. I wanted to put it down in the beginning, but almost halfway through the story, it started making sense and intrigued me. I enjoyed this book, but I’m not a fan of the big picture plot so I don’t really plan on looking for book 2. Overall, I rate Black Soul with 3 Boundless Stars; I liked it.

Good vs Evil

This is a real interesting world described. It has a array of emotions in this one. I look forward to more as this didn't have the finality I crave. Erik and Terri do a great job.

Has promise

I knew little of this book before listening to it, so it's no ones fault but my own that the content was not to my style. A little too much 'god' talk for my liking.
I also had an image in my head of the age of the characters so was suprised to realise that they were so young. The narration wasn't bad but not certain that it matched the characters as well as they could have. However when Eric made his character sound angry, well that voice was candy to the ears.
This book I think was a bit too YA in style for myself but I think it would suit others well.

Great book

I really enjoyed this story. I felt so bad for Noah and loved watching his relationship with Caroline grow. It is full of humor, intrigue and suspense. I laughed and cried throughout the whole book. I highly recommend it

I thought it was a bit much

There are many things I liked about this story. It is the classic story of the battle between good and evil. Though it is a well-written story, there is a lot going on as the story develops. At times, I had a bit of trouble following the story.

I particularly liked the relationship between the brothers. The relationship between the hero/heroine, though, I never really felt an emotional connection to them. Though the plot is a good one, it felt like it got a little out of hand, too complicated and with too much going on, to stay focused on the main point of the story. I ended up losing interest in the final outcome.

Can't wait to read the next book

I received this audiobook to review and I'm so glad I did. The storyline is not only romantic and funny but has some twists you don't expect. The narrator's voices really bring the characters to life.
This book is a no brainier read!

Amazing!

Loved everything about this book!! Great characters, all are very complex and I can’t wait to learn more about them. Loved the story, plenty of twists and suspense that kept me guessing. Plenty of heat too! Fantastic narrator, who did an amazing job of bringing the story and characters to life.

Narration is tough to listen to

I found the book a little awkward at the beginning. Not enough detail/ back story. The first scene was strange to me because it seemed to jump around too fast and dialogue wasn’t very developed. Not telling us more about their relationship, lots of simple choppy sentences, etc. Male narrator is tolerable but the female one is too hard for me to listen to. This may develop into a great book but I just couldn’t get past the bad narration

Letting go of the past.

This book is well written a real fire 🔥 bomb. Odessa Gillespie Black has a way with words that will keep you on your toes from the first page. Black soup is filled with love, honor, duty, death, betrayal and heartbreak. I can't wait to hear or read more from her. Well worth the price.
