A collection filled with love and heart

Anything written by AKB in the Mercy Hills world is worth reading (and listening). And Nick J Russo’s narration — sheer delight.

First, there’s Mac’s gift. It’s one of the sweetest story — how Mac conspired to make Jason have a day of rest. My heart just melts listening to the story!

Then, there’s Abel’s quality time with his step-son Fan. It’s the little things — the mundane things — that shines in AKB’s hands. Father and son bonding, a boy figuring out what he likes — looking up and imitating his newly acquired father who definitely deserves the title of one of the best fathers you can have. The story brings me a joy of a different kind but no less sweet.

Duke and Bram was next and as usual you just have to chuckle and shake your head over what Duke has to go through because Bram managed to forget his class papers that were due that day at home. The incredible love behind Duke’s odyssey to get his two children and himself to Bram’s campus is noteworthy! Bram is so lucky!

Last but not least, we meet the Canadian wolves and what their lives are like in rather too cold a climate they live in. It was entirely mundane -- as we get to know more about the mythology of the wolves through a school play staged as part of their mid-winter festival and how their families take care of each other. A very cozy Xmas story.

This is a short story collection — they are short but they are worth listening again and again. I listened to it twice in a month (the second time because I just wanted comfort). I love the characters, their stories, and their familial and romantic love.

Also, you cannot go wrong with Nick J Russo’s voice sounding soothing and sweet and just the perfect voice to fall into the stories.

Great catch up

I loved this. It was a great catch up on several characters. I really missed them. Nick J Russo did awesome as usual.

Short and Sweet

This collection of short stories set in the Mercy Hills omegaverse is great for when you have short blocks of time to listen. There is a few stories featuring well loved characters. Also, one where we get an intriguing glimpse at a Canadian pack's holiday celebration.
