Publisher's summary

In the conclusion to the Mastered Series by New York Times best-selling author Lorelei James, a man’s need for control is tested by the one woman he’ll risk everything for….

When sensei Ronin Black first encounters Amery Hardwick, the fire in her eyes ignites a sexual spark a thousand times better than the primal rush he used to get from mixed martial arts matches. She accepts his darker edges and admits to him that her desires aren’t as wholesome as he believed. And before long, Ronin is grappling with emotions he’s never felt before.

Yet despite demanding Amery bare her body and soul to him, Ronin holds a part of himself back. When she learns Ronin’s secret and walks out, his life begins to unravel. To regain her trust, he must let go of his pride and prove to her that it’s more than passion binding them together.

ALSO FABOULOUS

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

TOP 10

What about Luke Daniels’s performance did you like?

I LIKED HIS VOICE IMITATIONS OF THE DIFFERENT CULTURES, BUT NOT ALL OF THEM, AND SOME OF THE VOICES HE SOUNDED STRAINED

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

HOW AIMERY BONDED AND CONNECTED WITH RONIN, HOW SHE JUST TOTALLY GAVE HIM HER WHOLE TRUST. THAT WAS THE BEST TO ME

Any additional comments?

I ALSO LIKED HOW THE MOTHER CAME TO AMERICA AND TOLD HER KIDS SHE WAS IN CHARGE OF THE FAMILY BUSINESS, THE ACT OF FORGIVING, SO I'M CURIOUS TO KNOW IF THE NEXT BOOK WILL REVEAL MORE INFO. ABT. SHE'ORI AND KNOX? AND TO SEE IF THE MOTHER WILL FINALLY FIND LOVE AGAIN

Different from the first, in a good way!

Well, I wasn't expecting that. I wasn't expecting a male narrator and at first I wasn't sure I would like it but I slowly got used to it until it seemed natural given the fact that this book explores more of Ronin as the first did for Amery. I loved that he opened up (finally) and the performance by the narrator was excellent in this book as well. It had a great mixture of suspense, lust, and romance. The author did a great job with the writing, the only thing I thought was off was the way the characters used the word "hedging" so much. I've never heard that word used so much in my life! Sometimes it felt frustrating the way Amery demanded so much of Ronin and then ran away when she got it, but it just showed that these two are human and imperfect as we all are. Spoiler alert (kind of): I was infuriated toward the end with Amery's parents and wished there would have been more to it explaining the outcome with them and whether it worked out okay or not before the book ended. To be honest, I don't think I'll read the other books, I think this is a good ending spot for me in this series. I'm not into side character stories for some reason, I've always been that way though. I have really enjoyed this story though and thank those that worked on it so that I would have the opportunity to listen.

I liked it

This was the 1st time for me... the author, the narrator. (Luke Daniels) has a sexy voice also. That list of sexy male voice's are getting longer and longer. LOL
The story is similar to other books I've listened to.
Cute, sweet, hot & steamy.

The only thing I HATED was the crazy totally stupid bitch! 🤯👎
Who in the HELL is that fu@ked up.... and a big tease....?? And pulled her slut card like she did???
I wanted to slap the sh*t out of her! 🤬

Almost unbearable

The way the narrator used a constant raspy growling voice for Ronin was down right irritating 🥴 also, I couldn’t stand how frequent the use of GD was!! Last but not least, waaay too many sex scenes. I get it, the book is sexual in nature but because there were so many, it then lost its appeal and “spark”. I didn’t enjoy this book and stopped listening several times.

You will LOVE Master Black!

I didn't want this story to end. When a book makes me feel like I would love to know the characters in real life--it's a winner! This book totally made me want to join a dojo, start a little rope play, and let the Sensei have his way. This conclusion to Bound was Ronin truly coming completely undone for Amery. There was action, betrayal, angry-crazy fanatical parents, and even more hot and steamy romance igniting between these two--it was perfection in many ways.

Luke Daniels as the narrator was awesome, I could take a little more of him any day of the week. This is not a standalone book, so as soon as you read this review, download book 1 and 2 because you'll be hooked.

Must Listen WOW!!!!

I've listen to more than a few Audiobooks but nothing compares to this one. It's absolutely the best one ever.

The storyline is made better by the audio. It's unbelievable.

I'm still floored by how it was transformed. Hearing her parents yelling with a North Dakota accent. The passion is his voice. Best audio ever.

Must must listen to this one.
