About this listen
Edited by Leslie Mitchell at G2 Freelance Editing and rereleased Aug. 20, 2013.
What do you do when the one you love is also your worst enemy?
Cassie is stunned and devastated when she learns that she belongs to a long line of vampire slayers known as "The Hunters." A murderous rampage by a group of elder vampires has left the Hunter line decimated and the remaining Hunters scattered around the world. With her friends Chris and Melissa's aid, Cassie struggles to rid the world of the monsters that murdered her parents. Cassie knows it is her fate, but she chafes against her heritage and is resentful of the shortened lifespan placed upon her by the circumstances of birth.
Struggling to get through every day, Cassie finds herself lost and adrift until Devon walks into her life. His arrival turns the school, and Cassie's life, upside down. Fighting against her fierce attraction to Devon and the chaos he represents in her carefully ordered days, she is irresistibly drawn to him. Though worried that what she is will place Devon in danger, she's unable to fight her feelings for him. He is the one light, and the only source of hope she has in a world that revolves around death and fear.
What she doesn't know is that Devon has some dark secrets of his own, secrets even more frightening and dangerous than hers. Secrets that threaten to tear them apart forever.

My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. Then there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me. Which could spell death for us all.

It has been 13 years since the war started, the bombs were dropped, and the central states became a thing of the past. When the war ended, a wall was erected to divide the surviving states from those destroyed. I never expected to go beyond the wall, but unlike all the others who volunteered to go, I wasn't given a choice. With a dim knowledge of what I could do, the soldiers came for me. They took me beyond the wall where I learned that the truth is far more terrifying than I'd ever dreamed.

great
Good performance from the narrator. It is such a lively story I think it would have better more lively with multiple narrators to really bring out the characters more, but it is great just as it is now. I won't spoil the end for future listeners but this story really draws you into it and its a cliffhanger ending so be sure to get that next book.

I LOVE SARAH PUCKETT
I am seriously in love with narrator Sarah Puckett. She could read the ingredient list on a box of cereal and I would be enthralled. She brings the characters to life and invokes such emotions whether she is reading a funeral scene or fight scene.
Kindred is the first book I have read by author Erica Stevens. I was immediately drawn in by the blurb. I love a good YA paranormal romance. While Kindred is book 1 in the series, I felt that the author left me with a lot of unanswered questions. i get that it is book 1 in the series, but she left so much unsaid. Even when she wrote herself an opening and i thought i was finally going to get some insight in. For example, we don't get any insight into Devon's past. He brings up a passed lost love but never explains it with any detail. And how is it that he and Cassie have no idea what the other is? I really hope that all the other questions I have are answered in the other books, but because of this i gave the Story a 2.

Ok story made better by Sarah Puckett
I received a copy of this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher, and/or narrator.
I can never get enough of listening to Sarah Puckett. She is great and nice to listen to. She makes the reading experience that much better and Kindred is no exception.
I am a huge fan of Erica Steven's, but I just did not love this book. Since it is the first book in a series I am more than willing to give the second book a try. I just felt nothing for any of the characters and the romance was very instalovey. I will say I'm interesting to see what happens with Devon and Cassie's relationship after that very entertaining ending.
Even though I didn't love the story and I would have liked a bit more information, especially about Devon's past, but Sarah Puckett helps make this book interesting with her awesome narrating skills. She was great as Cassie.

I just flew through this audio book!
I was given a copy of this audio book in exchange for an honest review.
This is the first in a series of what seems to be YA series. The main characters are in high school. The story was good and easy to follow in audio book format. The narrator is easy to listen to with a pleasing voice and does a nice job with telling the story. This book sets up the series and explains some of the world and the situation of the main characters. I'm interested to see what comes next, especially with the 2 main characters.

YA Vampire Romance!
This is the first book of five in the Kindred Series, a YA Vampire Romance. The characters are great and intriguing. Cassie, a hunter, is strong and determined. Devon, a vampire, is attractive, and protective. I liked Cassie's friends, Chris and Melissa. The storyline is great, and intriguing. The story ends with a cliffhanger. Overall, the plot is easy to follow, and the characters easy to like. If you like vampire romance, you will like this one. Sarah Puckett did a great reading of this story. Looking forward to listen to the next book in the Series, Ashes.

Not a bad start
A new series of vampires and vampire hunters. We get to meet the 3 teens who I’m guessing are going to be the main focal point of this series. All of whom are okay characters so far, they are you typical high school kids. Along comes Devon and well now things are getting interesting. The book ends with the a bit of a twist for the teens. Looking forward to the next book.
Sarah also did a great job on narrating the story.

Decent, if YA story
I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
Definitely geared towards the Twilight-fan demographic. Thankfully, these vampires don't sparkle and less teen angst crap. As for the story, it's a pretty "normal" vampire forbidden love story. Female lead comes from a vampire hunter family and falls for a vampire. Beyond that, though, it is fairly well excecuted. The narration is fantastic, which helped hold my interest. There is a bit too much love story for me, but that's a personal preference thing. All in all, it's a pretty decent book and I'd be open to continuing the series.
