About this listen
Introducing book one of Tess Oliver's addictive new paranormal series Boys of Wynter.
For thousands of years, Boys of Wynter have guarded the mortal world against the wraiths and demons who lurk aimlessly in the desolate shadows outside the underworld. The Boys have a reputation and they didn't earn that unsavory notoriety by being gentlemen.
Tasked with guarding the mortal world from the monsters beyond, Stryker is one of the most fearless and dangerous men to walk the earth. Years of excruciating training and work have left him both physically and emotionally hardened. When Stryker's work leads him to a desolate cabin in the tundra, he finds a woman who may finally be able to break through the wall around his heart. A woman who brings forth the true meaning of soul mate. A creature with an aura that could drive a man to madness.
Banished to an existence of solitude, Willow's entire world is upended when Stryker falls into her life. The imposing, tattooed stranger discovers her innocence and unleashes her true seductive power. Their intense physical attraction and instant connection awaken Willow to a whole new world of possible pleasures and pains. But just as fate threw them together, it could cruelly tear them apart.
Warning: Mature content. Intended for listeners 18+

Story
The stories were all wrong—Hook was never the villain. For two centuries, all of the Darling women have disappeared on their 18th birthday. Sometimes they’re gone for only a day, some a week or a month. But they always return broken. Now, on the afternoon of my 18th birthday, my mother is running around the house making sure all the windows are barred and the doors locked. But it’s pointless. Because when night falls, he comes for me. And this time, the Never King and the Lost Boys aren’t willing to let me go.

Story
A thousand years ago, a brutal warrior roamed the Russian steppes, and struck a menacing bargain. For the ability to change at will into a cold-hearted predator, Konstantine promised his soul - and the souls of his descendants - to the devil. One day a dangerous prophecy reveals the truth: one family has been chosen to battle the darkness - or face damnation.

Um. Um. Um. Are you reading this? If you are, I need your help. I was at a party; I was running; I fell. And get this - this is the part you'll never believe - I fell down a rabbit hole. Like Alice in those old books. Except in those books, there wasn't blood everywhere. In those books, the characters weren't all male, attractive, and interested in me.

Theron - Dark haired, duty bound and deceptively deadly. He's the leader of the Argonauts, an elite group of guardians that defends the immortal realm from threats of the Underworld. From the moment he walked into the club, Casey knew this guy was different. Men like that just didn't exist in real life - silky shoulder-length hair, chest impossibly broad, and a predatory manner that just screamed dark and dangerous. He was looking for something. Her. She was the one. She had the mark. Casey had to die so his kind could live, and it was Theron's duty to bring her in. But even as a 200-year-old descendent of Hercules, he wasn't strong enough to resist....

Story
Three years ago, a darkly handsome stranger stole my heart. After one night together, I was certain I’d found my fated mate—until he rejected me and disappeared like a shadow. I never told anyone about that night. I shoved the shattered pieces of my soul into a locked box and pretended I'd never met Kian. But when a witch whispers a dire warning in my ear one day, everything changes. Because I don’t just have one mate. I have three. Feral shifters, she calls them. Wild, untamed, and fueled by darkness, created by a magic no one has ever seen before.

I never expected my life to go up in literal hellfire. The dark moon should be the best night of my life as a shifter. Instead, my sweet little house cat just combusted into flames in the middle of my bedroom, my tormenting alpha says he’s my mate, and three hellish men just blazed into my life like sinful gods. It’s fine. Everything’s fine. No big deal. Except rejecting the alpha who’s determined to make me his whore ends worse than I ever could have imagined…. With nowhere left to run, I’m forced to acknowledge the gorgeous existence of the three dark stalkers hunting me.

Interesting PNR
Any additional comments?
This book was not only a new genre to me, paranormal romance, and a new-to-me author, Tess Oliver. After I got the hang of the paranormal lingo for the types of characters of this book in the first few chapters I found the storyline really drew me in. I liked the chemistry between Willow and Stryker was very steamy and the intimate scenes were described in a very erotic way. I am looking forward to more books from Tess Oliver.

Not enough paranormal activity...
Narrators: Lacy Laurel the voice of Willow: a female character warrior guardian of animals. I didn’t care for Lacy’s narration of Willow’s character. Her voice grated on my nerves each time her point of view was read.
The performance by Logan was deep, raspy, and masculine. I did enjoy Logan’s narration, although I never quite pictured Stryker during the narration. Stryker was a shifter and lived with the boys if Wynter.
They narrated in alternating points of view. While narrating their chapter section Logan would narrate all characters voices in his voice trying to sound the part of Willow. It was confusing listening to him voice a female character that already had a narrator. Same thing for Lacy. She voiced all characters including Stryker’s character trying to sound masculine. Personally I prefer the narration to be voiced by the original narrator.
Stryker was a character driven paranormal story. The Boys of Wynter, included Maximus, Wilder, Stryker and Flint. The Boys of Wynter guard the mortal world against the wraiths and demons who lurk aimlessly in the desolate shadows outside the underworld. They were fearless and powerful beasts cursed with both lycanthropy and mortality. At eleven years old these boys were trained to hunt.
Willow was the guardian of animals banished to an existence of solitude in the tundra. Having lived in the tundra for two years Willow had an insatiable lust towards Stryker’s well muscled and tattooed body. She was a hybrid nymph angel. This was an unforbidden romance between an angel and a beast.
A warning for the vulgar profanity, and vulgar slang. This was a sexual paranormal story. For the most part these characters appeared human yet had paranormal blood and immortality. These characters lived in the mortal world, yet very little paranormal activity took place in the story.
The imminent danger was an anticlimactic revelation. The backstory for raising, stealing, and training the Wynter boys was weak and vague. While this is a series each book is about one of the Wynter boys.
