Sex kitten narrator

I hated the breathy little sex kitten character voice of Vickie. Story was good though.

We love this villain!

This is the book that redeems the villain of the first 2 books. Gene is on a mission of revenge until he meets a nerdy human who loves polar bears and is a pain in his a**. I loved this book, and Gene all through the story. I got the warm and fuzzies and Gene was allowed back into his pack so he could have his friends back and the life he deserved. Vicky is hilarious and the perfect heroine for Gene.

Who knew a pissed off polar bear would be so fun?

“Apparently, someone didn’t get the memo on not pissing Gene off.”
You can currently get this for free in Audible Plus, but it’s yours to keep if you get it in the books 1-3 collection. Each book features shifters who get progressively more growly and feisty ladies. I liked this book 3 best out of the trio, perhaps because between the fluff and stuff there’s some deeper arcs about Gene’s redemption and Vicky rising above domestic abuse. It’s all on the mild side, but listeners should be prepared for treatment of PTSD, POWs and death by gunfire and by beast in each book. There are also a fair number of F bombs in this installment.

Vicky gave me danger-prone-Daphne vibes something fierce, but that was balanced with a dollop of nerdy Velma. The situations tended to be hyperbolically comical, which was great for straight-man
(and all time biggest grump) Gene. Yep, just a big fur ball of sexy, campy fun.

Like the story, not a fan of the narrator

Overall I really like the series, however, I am not a fan of the narrator for this book. The main female character comes off as very ditzy and meek (very annoying!), while the voice for the main male character makes him sound kinda slow.

Love the story, not so sure about the narrator

So this is billed as the anti-hero romance. I disagree, he is flawed but by no means the opposite of a hero. He will deny being a good guy, but actions do not lie.

First, a bit of annoyance, I read this immediately after the last book that had a line about Gene trying to avoid a human trying to tag his bear. However, this book starts with them not knowing each other. It is a small constancy thing that annoyed me greatly.

Gene is all gruff and grumpy damaged bear. Sigh, yeah he had me at hello! I do love the damaged bears who are all Alpha. He has been working on being a villain, turns out he cannot fight his nature, he is a hero to the core. OMG, love his nickname and how he uses it constantly!! PIMA <3

Vicky is very shy and reserved and not at all a tough chick. She is totally endearing and the perfect match for Gene. HE needs someone to care for and she needs his strength to bring her out of herself. I really think they are one of favorite couples in the whole series.

The smexy stuff is delicious and ever so hawt!! Love it! Have ice cream and a cold shower ready!!

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Chandra Skyye, who does very well on the narrative potions of the book. Where I did not enjoy her was the dialogue for the two leads. She tries to go too low and gruff with Gen’s voice and far to nasal and whiny for Vicky. Often she comes off sounding immature because of the narration. This is really too bad, because Ms Skyye has great pace and energy for the other parts of the read. I am not sure how I feel about having her continue with the series. I think she has a great voice, just not enjoying all her artistic choices.

Please let the rest of the series come to audio ASAP!! I can not wait for Brody, so yummy I think!! It is also getting very intriguing with this super secret evil foe!

*** I hope this review was useful to you and helped your decision to read or not read this book. I love reading and sharing my opinions with other readers. I listen at double speed; all my impressions of the narration are from that setting. Thanks for taking the time to read my review!

Narrator is not my favourite in this book.

Great book to read but audible narrator is not my cup of tea.
This narrator totally spoilt this audio book for me. I love the book but this audible version needs redoing by someone else.
The narration is okay for the main part but when the narrator is doing Gene and Vicky it is dreadful. Vicky comes across as a Marilyn Monroe wannabe and Gene is just awful. He sounds too gruff, nasally and wrong.
She made Vicky sound weak and whiny and Gene sounded like a complete weirdo but two more perfect people for each other I have yet to find.
2020
Listening to this for the third time I seem to have gotten used to the narrator. Still find Vicky to be too breathy/soft in dialect.
BOOK REVIEW
Keep them coming.
I just loved Vicky, she was so quirky and clumsy but in a funny way.
Gene goes from being the baddie in the previous books to being??? A non-hero but that is not true.
You will have to read to find out about Gene and what is really going on.
Another fabulous read with the usual laugh out loud moments.
Loved when Gene was trying to push Vicky up the ice and his nickname for her. P.I.M.A. Brilliant. But two more perfect people for each other I have yet to find.
