About this listen

Nothing says you can’t steal a heart. Keeping it though? That’s another problem.

Wade Espinoza knows a thing or two about hoards. As a dragon, he’s got plenty. What he doesn’t have is a relationship, and he swears he’s not looking for one. But when he’s sent to Boston to answer a cry for help from another pack, he’s drawn into a mess of fae bargains centered around a selkie who Wade instantly becomes obsessed with.

Riordan Maguire is struggling to keep his selkie clan out of the clutches of a fae lord who will do anything to take over their territory. Partnering with the Boston god pack means coming face-to-face with the first person he’s ever wanted to willingly give his sealskin. Too bad Wade isn’t local and is something altogether strange that Riordan isn’t sure he can trust.

Amidst a growing danger in the streets and Boston Harbor, Wade and Riordan are desperate to find a way to keep everyone safe. For bargains are dangerous things to break, but so are hearts. Wade isn’t willing to shatter either of theirs in a race against time that could see Riordan torn from him forever.

Wade and Riordan have the type of dynamic that I love in a couple. Both support and complement each other in a way that feels very healthy.

Dragons and Selkies... oh my!

Secondhand Skin: A Soulbound Universe Novel by Hailey Turner
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

Ok so I read the book first and I was super excited to know that there was an audiobook. Gary Furlong did an amazing job of narrating this funny, amazing, story. I was already in love with Secondhand Skin, but after listening to the audiobook I'm just overall obsess.

Gary manage to engage me in a way that doesn't happened often. Even thought the book is told by dual POV, Gary manage to be give both main characters their own tone of voice. That was super exciting to listened to, I felt like I was discovering this book for the first time.

Secondhand Skin audiobook is a must get!

I loved Wade and Riordan! Wade has grown so much as a person and yet is still the lovable dragon I’ve come to know. I loved Riordan for him.

As always, the author has balanced humour, danger, action, and love beautifully!

3.5 stars for Gary Furlong.

I usually do like him as a narrator but here, at times, it was like he was speed reading during his narration. When he spoke with each of the character's voices for the most part he was great. I did not like his voice for Wade but the attitude did seem to match. Overall it was still good and enjoyable to listen to. He does still manage to bring the story to life.

3.75 stars for the story

We know Wade Espinoza as one of the members of the God pack of New York. He is a young dragon shifter with a penchant for snacking. Although things have settled since the battle of Samhain the pack is still busy. So when an issue in Boston pops up the one member available to help happens to be Wade.

There is a battle for territory going on in Boston and the person trying to take over is not playing fair. Niall has stolen the skin of a selkie and is using it as a bargaining chip to gain control of the Maguire clan. A clan that is led by Riordan. Niall has also taken captive the two alphas of the werecreature pack. Wade must work with Riordan and Ella, the dire for her pack, to stop the hostile takeover.

Let me start off by saying I love Wade and could not wait for his story. So happy that it is here. You have to know snacks would be part of the package but tbh I expected more lol. I am happy to see Wade venture on his own but I do prefer him with his pack. I am so happy to know that they won't be separating. Wade found his person. I appreciate how kind and understanding they were to Wade's emotions. The storyline was the usual chaos with special appearances from characters from previous books. I always like seeing that. There was also a surprise thrown in. Overall a good read. I hope there will be more of Wade. Honestly, I look forward to whatever Hailey writes next.

I’m so happy we got a story for grown up-ish Wade! Riordan makes a good partner for him, with his patience and understanding. Plus, as a virtually immortal fae kin selkie, Riordan has a lifespan suitable for a dragon that will live a *very* long time. It’s less spicy than other Soulbound books (but appropriate considering Wade’s traumatized history), bordering on sweet at times. The action portion of the storyline fits right in line with the main series, with sufficient angst and twists keeping things interesting. Gary Furlong does a great job with the narration, giving it a similar vibe and pacing. Plus I really feel like he nailed Wade’s attitudes here.

While this technically is a “standalone”, it’s best enjoyed after all the rest for proper impact of Wade’s history along with characters and event references.

I loved this story so much!!! Wade is all grown up and trying his best to make his family proud. And what a beautiful new relationship he gets to explore. This story was worth the wait! Maybe I should go back and listen to the series again…

I tried to read this book but got lost very fast. Listening to it was so much better! I haven’t read the previous books in this series. I did love this story. I adore Wade and his love of snacks!

Amazing Narration!

I have been waiting for Wade's story to arrive and it didn't disappoint. Wade gets to handle a problem on his own and he gets to use the best and worst qualities that he has learned from his pack members. Riordan didn't think much of the hot "human" that he met, but Wade keeps him and the rest of Boston on their toes.

I loved the book and I think that Gary Furlong did a good job with the narration. I enjoyed having Wade and Riordan coming out book and into auditory goodness. There is always a large number of characters that pop up in these books and I think Gary did the best with the whole gamut of them.

Wade!

There’s so much new lore that’s introduced to the Soul Bound universe in this addition. I want to know more about Lady Ka and her story!! So much to explore with some updates we get about the pack and where they’re at in their lives. Love it!!!

Hailey always kills it!!
