I need more!

At first I wasn't to sure about this novella but once the characters became introduced and it was shown how much of a bond and love they have the story line pulled me right in. now I need to know how it all goes and ends. this is a great start. Narrator's voices are great but I would like it to be more first person on the male lead. over all a wonderful start.

Great!

What a heartfelt story! It only whetted my appetite for the rest of the story.
Gunnar and Jenna are super narrators! They have the best chemistry in any thing they do!

Great Quick Listen!

This is a real quick listen. This is an introduction to the characters and how they wounded up in the garage. Jenna had a very little part in the story, but I found Gunnar sounding just a bit robotic when he was telling the story.

My Appetite Is Whetted, I want MORE!

Now THIS is the way to start a series! Connelly’s Horde is the novella that introduces us to those who make up the “family” that Desmond Connelly has created over the years at Wheels & Hogs Garage. They are truly a unique bunch of characters, very well developed characters of varying ages, some naive, some jaded, some secretive, some trying to recover from their past and some WAY to open and free with just about everything! No spoilers here, I’ll leave it to the listener to sort out “who’s who”, but let me tell you, Connelly’s Horde has really whetted MY appetite, really left me wanting more and really made me feel as if I’ve discovered a unique bunch of people that I want to know better, that I want to see happy and settled! The flow of this novella was perfect, the writing excellent, the narration fantastic, and the heat level, WOW! My interest was held from the opening lines, to the very last words. It is said, if you build it they will come, and D. M. Earl has built this one brilliantly! I can’t wait for each and every book in this series to come out! I want them all! Five fabulous well earned stars!

Interesting Introduction to the characters

This short novella is the first book in the Wheels & Hogs Series. This is an interesting introduction to the characters in the series. Gunnar Qualen and Jenna St. Claire did a great job with the narration. #SpectrumAudiobooks

Great Intro to a New MC Series! Fabulous Narration

D.M. Earl’s first book in her new “Wheels & Hogs” series not only lays down the foundation for the new & different type of motorcycle club, but it is an introduction to the key players, starting with the lead character Des Connelly. Each character has their own story and is as interesting as the next and this novella sized book gives you a glimpse into each one. And just by this introduction, you can tell that each person in Connelly’s Horde is unique and very special and you just know their story is going to be special too. I am looking forward to learning more about these characters and how they all come together as a unit. D.M. Earl, thank you for this great introduction and for piquing my interest in this new world you created and the amazing characters in it. I hope the rest of the series comes out on audio soon.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Gunnar Qualen and Jenna St. Claire are talented narrators and versatile voice artists. They had a complete understanding of the characters they were portraying, gave each a voice that suited that character’s persona and was believable in every role they played. You could hear how much heart they put into their work as they capture all the character’s emotions and project them into their performance. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their narration enhances the story to another level. Thank you for another great listen.

series beginning

a great beginning to this series. It basically gives the background history of the different characters and how they look out for one of their own facing tragedy.
Wonderful narration by Jenna St. Claire and Gunner Qualen..

Honesty is best

The town bike was a persistent thing,. but she should have known when to back off. Nobody wants complications or annoyances. Dee needs to stop playing games with Des and communicate honestly. She acts like she doesn't have a past- hello, three kids!!!!! Move on grow up or shut up!! I'm rooting for Des. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.
