Publisher's summary

She will take him beyond his wildest dreams. As Demon King, Noah is dedicated to protecting his kind from their human and Nightwalker enemies. Yet for six months he has struggled with vivid dreams that threaten his very sanity. Every night he's tormented by images of a woman both achingly real and tantalizingly beyond his grasp. And his bone-deep need leaves him no choice but to force her to leave the life she's known and enter a world beyond her imagining...

Every day, Kestra risks her life in perilous missions that veer just shy of the law, but she instinctively knows that the imposingly sensual figure before her is a danger unlike any she's ever faced. Kestra has sworn never to trust or need another man, but Noah's lightest touch scorches her with fevered desire, branding her as his mate, blinding them both to the terrifying truth. For within the ranks of their own people lies an adversary growing in number and power. And nothing and no one will be safe again...

Spend some more time with the Nightwalkers - if you dare.

Critic reviews

"Frank continues her major hot streak with her latest Nightwalkers novel by giving this compelling hero a heroine worthy of him. Exceptional as always!" (Romantic Times)

I love Noah

Where does Noah rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Noah is at the top of this series.

Any additional comments?

Noah is suspenseful and hot! I couldn't stop listening. The mystery, the suspense, the love and passion and emotion...very intense.

Pure fire.

This is probably the most intense of all five Nightwalkers Series books, with new enemies and many things happening at once. I hated Noah at first, but near the end of the book he was already one of my favorite characters. Once more, the narrator is absolutely fantastic!

dragged on

the performance was good. the story just dragged on a bit. maybe too many story lines.

I love Xe Sands & Jacquelyn Frank

They're an amazing combination for this series. I don't think a better narrator could have been found. The voices, accents, and emotions portrayed make a great book & great series even better.

I'm sad that this is the next-to-last book. Hopefully other books from Jacquelyn Frank will be as good and I can content myself with them.

I highly recommend every single book in this series. Be sure to read them from book 1. They're all exciting, fun, funny, sweet, romantic and sexy.

Demons, Druids & Vampires Oh My!

Another in the series by Jacquelyn Frank about demons & druids. This time the demon king has found his imprinted druid mate who is far from interested in commitment.

I have to confess, aside from the supernatural element, these books tend to be a bit like a harlequin romance, which typically doesn't interest me. However, since I listen to the books on my daily commute, I find the narrator of this series totally draws me in with her range of voices and emotion.

A Romance for the King! Or is it???

This is Noah’s story (obviously, right?) So we have to take all the things that we have learned about Noah in the last 4 books and apply them to his story. He is a diplomat, a brother, an Uncle, a friend, and a king. What we haven’t seen yet is Noah in love.

We have seen the brotherly love he has shown for his sisters, but not the real pull at your heart strings, can’t get enough of her, on my mind every waking moment type love. But one other thing we mustn’t forget about Noah is that he is a demon and as a demon he is susceptible to the madness that the call of the moon at Beltane and Samhain can bring.

In this story, Jacquelyn Frank shows us how the pull of the moon can drive a man do things he would never do if he were in his right mind. It will be the enforcers, Jacob and Isabella, that will have to dole out Noah’s punishment for his little indiscretion.

Kestra is the one that is meant for Noah and she is a strong woman. She is tuff and doesn’t take crap from anybody. She has dreams about a mystery man for several months, but when some guy just shows up and tells her that she is his soulmate and now they will be together forever … well, he has another thing coming! She is not just going to roll over and act all submissive and let him dominate her. She doesn’t care who he is. As far as she is concerned all that soulmate stuff is a bunch of crap.

This story was a great addition to the series. I loved the dynamic between Noah and Kestra. I enjoyed that they didn’t just meet and fall love and live happily ever after. I also enjoyed how Kestra was not a girly, girly but more of a tuff warrior babe type person and she stayed true to form right to the end.

When this story ended, there were a lot of unanswered questions but I don’t feel like I was left hanging. We now have quite a few mixtures of races and we don’t know what all the different new guys (and gals) can do. I will be looking forward to the next in the series.

The Narration Review
Xe Sands was the narrator for this book as well as for the other four in the series. As always, she uses her rich sultry voice to immediately draw you into the story and keep you listening well into the night. She really captures the essence of the love and romance that goes on in these books.

Frankly, I'm a Fan!

This book is another good addition to the Night Walker series. Be sure to start with book one for the best understanding of the ongoing plot. The action is fast, the romance tingly and the characters endearing. The narrator's voice isn't my favorite but it didn't necessarily detract from the story so I was okay with it.

what to do, what to do

wow, was noah off his rocker or what but i got say in a crazy sexy way.

Noah was great!

I love these books because they continue with the past characters. You always see them and the leader finally got the happiness he deserved! I am downloading the last book now and I can't wait!

Just when you think it can't get better

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, it's a great addition to a very interesting series.

Have you listened to any of Xe Sands’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

All the previous books in this series. She does a great job in those and in this one.

Any additional comments?

I've enjoyed all the previous books in this series and this one. Sometimes you get bored with a series of books, but this one keeps my interest and I just can't wait until the next one. I think it's well worth the credit or purchase price.
