🎧 Full cast, duet style narration

What a trilogy! I'm so glad I waited to listen to this on audio. The narrators did an absolutely brilliant job. They really bought these books to life!

I really enjoyed this. I had the best time listening to this. I laughed, I cried, and I wanted to scream. Brilliant 👏🏼

I just finished Bound in Blood and it was just okay. The glaring issue of a weak FMC drove me nuts and made me lose focus throughout most of the series. While the author had a good outline of the story, I felt it wasn't executed well. As someone who loves bully academia PNR, I found the story promising but didn't enjoy the main characters as much as I would have liked. I wish the author had fleshed out more of the story in book 1 and gradually built up the relationships over the course of the series.

I didn't enjoy that there was no groveling by any of the guys. In book 1, Ophelia was just supposed to accept their behavior, especially after they bonded. As someone who loves a good alpha jerk, Sadie took Alexandros to a whole new level. There were times I absolutely hated him. It's one thing to have an MMC take the lead, but it was all the time. I never felt like any of the other MMCs were allowed to have an opinion, and Ophelia certainly wasn't. She wasn't allowed to have an opinion or feelings towards him or his decisions. Sadie, please go back to writing FMCs like Jessie and Joey!

At any rate, this wasn't a terrible series, but definitely not my favorite and not one I plan to read again. I'm interested to see how Sadie writes the next FMC, but I won't be pushing through a series again if she's anything like Ophelia.

challenging dark emotional funny

Great ending to the series! These hot vampires, sign me up. Haha joe Arden as one of the narrator’s, chefs kiss! Phenomenal! It was an ending I was hoping for. Tho at the end, Ophelia hinted like maybe we’d see them again!?
