About this listen
All Ion Jacobs ever wanted was to be normal. But when you’re capable of killing with your very thoughts, it’s hard to blend in with the crowd.
Running from his past and living in fear of being discovered, Ion knows he will never be an average college student. But when Hawk, the beautiful, mysterious girl next door unearths his darkest secret, Ion’s life is flipped upside-down. He’s shocked to discover a whole world of people just like him; a world in another dimension, where things like levitation, shape-shifting, and immortality are not only possible, they’re normal.
Forced to keep more secrets than ever before, Ion struggles to control his powers in the real world while commuting between realms...until his arch enemy starts a fight he can’t escape. Now, he has sealed the fate of the Dimension, severing their connection to the real world, and locking himself inside forever. But a deadly threat hidden in plain sight may cost Ion more than just his freedom; It may cost him his life.

Andrew Frost had been gone no more than fifteen minutes. It was just supposed to be a quick run to the store. But in that brief interval, his entire universe was stolen from him, every parent and spouse’s worst nightmare on display at the kitchen table upon his return. Two months later, he’d do anything to see Sylvia and Alison again. He’s certainly taken enough pills to make that possible. However, there may be another way . . .

Story
As a wolf shifter growing up in a strong pack, I should be living my best life. But after my father tried to kill our leader, I’m labelled an outcast, traitor, less than dirt. When I can't take pack life any longer, I run, but apparently they don't like losing their punching bag. Torin, the leader’s son, drags me back before my first shift...a shift that will reveal my true mate. I never could have predicted who mine would be, but the moment my wolf looks upon him, I’m filled with hope for a brighter future.

When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed. Too bad no one told her Pestilence can’t be killed. Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her, and hers towards him. And now, well, Sara might still be able to save the world, but in order to do so, she'll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.

Story
It's every novelist's greatest fear: pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into writing hundreds of pages only to realize that their story has no sense of urgency, no internal logic, and so is a page-one rewrite. The prevailing wisdom in the writing community is that there are just two ways around this problem: pantsing (winging it) and plotting (focusing on the external plot).

Good but needed another edit
Abbie's first book, 100 Days of (Sunshine or Sunlight) was 5 stars,a sweet, engrossing romance. This gets bogged down in description and is nearly purple in spots. Both characters narrate with 1001 gazes. They gaze as a noun. Their gazes burn and shoot and meet. They both gaze as a verb. There is a lot of gazing. Both characters end up sounding the same. One should gaze. The other could look or check out. Since they are born 100 years apart, Hawk should sound like she is from the 20th century. But the similarity and all the gazing, takes me out of the story. Surely an editor would have caught these things? Or maybe this book was edited by a different person? Whatever it is, I think the story and world were thought out with tremendous care.
The male narrator ra8ses the pitch of his voice for female quotes. It makes the female characters sound like Keye and Peele's, Meegan.

Great book and narration
Loved the narrators in this book. I’m glad I stuck with it as I had a hard time getting into it at first but so worth it. I’ll definitely be picking up book two.

gripping, I couldn't put it down
this book was fabulous. the story was well thought out, the characters were dynamic and alive, and I couldn't help but root for them. the plot and world building was spectacular and OMG I can't get the next book fast enough! the ending cliff hanger was to die for... won't spoil anything but I want to. the only thing was the voice acting could get a little annoying at times. it wasn't really the fault of the actors, but I think the casting could have fit the characters a little better?

Highly enjoyable when the story picks up
This is not a book I would typically read but I found it extremely enjoyable. It starts off a little slow, it takes a little while for the story to pick up. Once the story starts to flow, it becomes addictive and is tough to put down. The readers did an excellent job at bringing this story to life.

Wow... Wonderful listen!
I LOVED THIS BOOK!! It pulled me in from the very beginning and I didn't want to stop listening! Excellent performance from the two narrators. The author has created a solid plot, dynamic characters, and a colorful world rich with beautiful prose. The cliffhanger left me desperate for more! This series is a masterpiece.

Very slow at the beginning but the second half is gripping. The male narrator was a little over the top which was sometimes distracting. It is definitely worth sticking around for the ending.

But every chapter it was repeating the same thing over and over again never progressing in the story.
Would not get the second book even if it came out.
Voice acting was good though.
