Shattered Souls

A Caitlyn O’Connell Novel, Book 1

By: Delilah Devlin

Narrated by: Natalie Ross

Her mother called it a gift. But for Caitlyn O’Connell, the voices in her head are a curse, dooming her career, her marriage, and her sobriety. Now the former cop scrapes by as a private investigator, counting down the minutes until happy hour. But when her sexy former partner (and estranged ex-husband) appeals to her for help with a bizarre murder case, Cait can’t say no - to the crime or the man.

The last thing Detective Sam Pierce wants is to revisit the past. But the very secret that doomed his marriage to Cait may be the key to cracking this case. Something sinister - and decidedly not human - is terrorizing Memphis, leaving a trail of clues only Cait can decipher. Together she and Sam will venture into a dark world of magic and terror, lured to the brink of reality as they know it - and back into the thrall of their steamy past.

sexy , steamy, Sam

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

yes, but I buy as much of natalie ross recordings as I can. This is fast pace for a paranormal book. Our hero is just so on for a core romance book. This is not mushy, but if you do not like steamy, then this is not for you.

What other book might you compare Shattered Souls to and why?

Cherie Priest 2 books that N. Ross reads. This has more steamy scenes .

What about Natalie Ross’s performance did you like?

Hero voice is always spot on. Hunky as all get out. Ms Ross can do the inner voice of our heroine so well, witty. This is Ms. Ross best type of reads. Next to the late Anna Fields, Ms Ross has the best male sexy voice. Then comes Ms Gabra Zackman.

I can only hope Mis Delilah Devlin has more books of this fast pace and steamy reads.
Ms Ross brings out the best in this read.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

yes, when Sam, realizes he did not even know his ex wife.

Good start to the series

Any additional comments?

At first i had trouble getting into the story but it picked up and i enjoyed the book in the end. A descent start to this series and i will be looking forward to more books as they are released to audio. Narrator done a great job. I love the male voices. :)

Urban Fantasy with a Paranormal Twist

Shattered Souls is dark and mysterious, with chilling paranormal elements, a hot romance, and unforgettable emotion. This book is both urban fantasy and a paranormal mystery spiced with some dark Southern magic. The heroine, Cait, is a fresh voice in urban heroines, a sassy, flawed woman with a heartbreaking secret. Her ex is the kind of alpha guy Cait alternately hates and loves, but the reader can only love him. The pace is fast, but emotional twists will grab you by the throat when you least expect it. Cait is tough enough, but her problems are real. Hang on for a fast-paced ride through Memphis and the occult.
Natalie Ross bought the story to life with her fantastic narration. Can't wait to listen to the next installment.

Expected more SUBSTANCE, less STEAM

From the blurb, I expected some romance, but expected the base of the story to be mystery with fantasy elements. Instead, this seemed more like a romance with a
dash of mystery and a pinch of fantasy thrown in. The sex scenes were very graphic and sometimes rather gratutious. The narrator did a decent job, but some of the male voices were a bit campy. Those who love their romantic fantasies/mysteries steamy may enjoy this volume.

If you are looking for a well-plotted mystery, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Whoa! Nellie

Read this book & you might loose your soul or at least you won't be in Kansas anymore. Not treating her like a lady? not to worry this heroine will give you a treatment you won't want to forget. I kept hitting the 30 second replay throughout thinking, did I just hear what I think I Heard. Also, while listening in public & someone happened to look at me I wondered if I may have been blushing. Any teen putting this book on their wish list should get a good spanking. leave it to us shattered adults to contemplate all things grown up, under a cold shower of course. If your close minded forget it, unless your standing on a high bridge holding on to the rail while listening to this book & wondering if you should let go before the carnal beast in you starts howling.
