When He's Dark

Olympus Pride Series, Book 1

By: Suzanne Wright

Narrated by: Samantha Cook

Length: 12 hrs and 51 mins

Publisher's summary

Cat shifter Bree Dwyer doesn't fear much. Ironically, what she fears most is the person who was put on the Earth just for her. Your true mate wasn't supposed to be cruel and twisted; wasn't supposed to be someone who'd never love or want to claim you. The rumors that her true mate is dead bring her only relief. Bree's intent on moving forward with her life and building a future with someone else. Sadly, the male she wants most is one she can never have - a hot-as-sin wolverine shifter who happens to be her boss...and the cousin of her predestined mate.

Aleksandr "Alex" Devereaux detests being bullshitted, but he's been lying to himself for years - pretending he thinks of Bree as extended family; that he doesn't want her so bad he aches with it; that he can't feel himself weakening against her pull. The night they spend together changes everything. He's done fighting himself on what he wants. Someone isn't happy about that. Possibly the same "someone" who's playing mind games with Bree, trying to scare her. They're succeeding, because too many leads point to the possibility that the culprit could be the one person that she's determined to believe is dead.

Contains mature themes.

Love this book

I love this book but I am really having a difficult time with new narrator performing the male voices. For the first time I find myself longing for dual narrators. Alex’s voice is described as deep and velvety and this narrator really missed it. It pulled me out of the story whenever I heard it.

Can't wait for next book!

I understand it may be years between books but please try to use the same voices from previous characters (Phoenix Pack, Mercury Pack). I read both series and would suggest you read them before you read this book. This book made laugh, love love Russian family!!!!! this is my stuff but Alex is soooooo hot, and Bree is not at all meek but give him his power! The villains in all these books are really heartless monsters, but the villain in "Omens" will give you nightmares.
this was entertaining, heart thumping, just plain good book!

really great!

the story was amazing. the narrator was amazing, with distinguishable voices, I listened from beginning to the very end

Another good book in the series

I know a lot of people may criticize and say they're redundant but each of these books in all of these series deal with a certain issue that the characters are dealing with. So that in itself I find is worthy of continuing to read through these books. It feels almost like a counseling session in a book.

Great love story!

This book has it all! I liked that one of the main characters are very strong and a take charge person. I really enjoyed the romantic side of this book aswell!

Great Character’s

Love the character’s , they have humor and a sense of family. And some hot situations.

Narration atrocious

I have always enjoyed Suzanne Wright’s series and have listened to all of the Phoenix Pack and Mercury Pack books. I was intrigued when I saw this listing and purchased with an Audible credit. Bottom line, buy the book and save your credit. The character’s voices were practically indistinguishable from one another. Almost gave up on more than one occasion but sloughed through to the end hoping it would get better. It didn’t. Unlike the other series that I have listened to more than once, I will not be repeating the experience again with this narrator. Please re-think using this narrator in the Olympus Pride series.

just not as good as the series

I think i would liked it better with another person reading it... she is great with female voices but man the male voice was idk not good in the emotions and sounded winy in the hot areas... I must be to spoiled by Nicole Poole in the other series....

Awesome

This book is great. I can’t wait for more. The performance was nice and you can tell who she is speaking for. I really love this series and I can’t wait for more.

I liked it 🐾

If you know Susanne Wright, this is a story you might come to expect of her. If you’re unfamiliar with her writing and want to explore paranormal romance, this is what you need to know:

🐾 strong Alpha male (usually grumpy and emotionally stunted)
🐾 badass and bold female lead - strong and independent
🐾 omniscient POV
🐾 crazy fantasy world but also very worldly (makes you view your neighbors in a whole different way 🤣)
🐾 suspense, violence, and some gory details

While Samantha Cook won’t be in my list of favorite narrators, she does a good job.
