About this listen

The fates are ruthless and unkind, but the hand they dealt this time changed everything.

Thrown from the path I had chosen, I am thrust back on fates' course with my heart in pieces.

Driven by determination for the greater good, I put aside my own wants to focus on the battles we have yet to fight and the foes that continue to walk among us.

As destinies collide, nothing is what it appears, and it will take every ounce of strength we possess. I must take the crown I was born into and rise to the challenge of my birth right.

But will veiled truths lead to a path of sacrifice or victory?

Needed another book and bad audio quality

I have to say I was pretty disappointed in the ending of this trilogy and I am eager for more in the series to hopefully have some redemption. I couldn’t believe the author would do that to her readers but I could kind of understand why. The big issue I have is you needed more time to develop these new bonds after you utterly destroyed these characters with the big reveal and twist in book 2’s ending. There wasnt enough substance and time in book 3 to make the bonds feel believable, to make the reader root for these characters after she made us fall for Maddox and Luna so much in book 3. I also wanted Luna to tell Maddox I told you so and be madder at him and not let him off the hook. I get the bonds are overwhelming but the readers are more mad than the characters are, which isn’t how it’s supposed to be.

I will say there were cute moments in book 3 between Jackson and Luna. I wish again we got another book because this one has so many different POVs it didnt feel like Jackson and Luna’s trilogy love story. I assume Maddox and Poppy will get their own story sometime but the author took from this book and felt like she jilted Luna for airtime. I didnt mind Poppy, she seems like a character I would love to read/listen about but again we didnt have the time. I loved the time with Morgan in the Shadow realm and seeing her guys again and their antics. Meeting her kids was fab too. I kinda hope since Poppy is an ultra hybrid and this special being, she might get more than one mate hehe. I loved the mention of the hellhounds too. I want to do a re-listen of Morgan’s story again haha. I also loved getting more Remy and her guys airtime. I was missing Creek and we got some moments with him too. I do wish we got time with Kane and Levi like we did with Roman, but it made sense since Luna is a Lycan so the alpha of alphas Lycan would get the most screen time. I also didn’t realize Jackson was so much older than Luna haha. I feel like he should have been wiser and not acting like a young 20 year old to be honest.

I thought their sexy scenes were yummy though and that I loved him being the older more domineering of the 2 despite them both being alpha. I liked that he stood up for her and was a good support for her. I wish we got to see how the dynamics were going to go with their pack but I know there is more to this world so I will just have to patiently wait for the next kid’s series. I so hope Nova and Raze are a thing haha or something that ties the families and characters together more.

In terms of the narration the female narrator did a fabulous job. I have no feedback for her besides keep doing what you are doing. I would give her a 5 star review if if was just her. My issues came with the male narrator. He was good in book 2 and I have no clue what happened here. The audio quality was super lacking. It had a lot of feedback and it cut out a couple times. I had to rewind a lot thinking it was the playback through my phone but it wasnt. He also switched up a lot of the accents and that bothered me a whole ton. Like people got British accents all of a sudden? And made some of the main characters from the original series sound so snooty. When he did Jackson’s POVs and parts it was fabulous but when he did Maddox it was randomly faster, cut out, made him sound super whiney. I would give him a 3 stars.

I would still recommend this world but caution readers to this ending. This series had a whole lot of potential and I dont know if the author was having timing issues or if the characters gave her a though time, but it wasnt my favorite of her books so far.

epic twist and great ending!

🅰🆄🅳🅸🅾🅱🅾🅾🅺 🆁🅴🆅🅸🅴🆆

Meg Price and Matthew Winchester narrate this 3rd book in the series and I LOVED THIS BOOK!

This is a cautionary tale to would be readers not to get scared off by negative reviews. I almost didn't listen to this one based on what other readers wrote.
I'm so freakin glad I did because this may be the most epic twist in a fated mate storyline. I really hope for the rest of the books in this series ( OG series) will be on audio!

In the end Luna was with who she belonged with and the author left the ending of this book with hopefully another book to come!

Loved the series!!!

This is an amazing series! I am totally hooked! I am so excited to know there are other books in the series to listen to. Not having read the other series did not leave me lost in this one, but I definitely could see how it would enhance the story. The parents that the main characters have their own series, and you can tell they are a huge family that will literally go to war for each other. I al already loading the series this book is a branch off of. Hooked on this author now! There is closer to Luna's story with this one. However, I am looking forward to see what happens to Maddox and Poppy. The narrators did a fantastic job!

I requested and received a free audio copy via the publisher, and I voluntarily wrote this honest review. #TheFlockVIPReviewTeam #PinkFlamingoProductions #PFPAudio

Alpha Born

Alpha Born is the third book in The Shadow Legacies series. Luna has had quite the journey. This series had one heck of a twist in fate. I am glad everything worked out in the end. I am hoping there may be another spinoff book to come.

Meg Price and Matthew Winchester did a great job narrating this book.

A nice wrap-up...

Books 1-2 had an epic hold on me and I thought I might d!3 waiting for book 3, especially when I couldn’t find it … as books 1 & 2 are published under another pen name. That definitely sent me on a bit of a chase.

Book 3 pretty much picked up where 2 left off, so there are high stakes, loads of drama and of course: plenty of witty dialogue. And in typical Wildhart fashion (I’m learning) a thirst for revenge.

Very fun, as is also typical of Wildheart.

Rejected mates.
Fated mates.
Tr@fficking.
Vengeance.
Training.
Demons.
F!ght scenes.
Lycans & pack-life.
War.

Overall: this whole series gripped me—4 stars.


🎧 Audio:
Both narrators have great voices and opt to perform the book, and do so beautifully.
Her parts are nearly flawless with crisp, clear overall sound quality. His though, could use some help as there’s a windy/ feedback-y sound throughout and it’s rather distracting.

I’m not sure the audio was proofed

Okay so, I didn’t care for this story at all BUT the biggest issue was with the narration. It’s not even the people - it’s the quality. For the male lead, half the time it sounded like he was in some make shift basement and the audio went in and out like he moved away from the mic. It was just… bad.
