Meh...

Interesting plot line, however not as developed as it could have been. Horrible narration too.

Narration was distracting.

I like the story. There were some gaps in the story line, so sometimes I got disoriented with the passing of time. Really good sex and great characters. I could have listened to the story for many more hours! Just didn't like the forceful way the narrator interpreted the text.

Juvenile inner dialogues

The story has great potential. The juvenile inner dialogues of the heroine who is supposed to be a well educated individual with a Ph.D. just ruined it for me.

great story, awful narration

I own the kindle version, but the narrator pronounces every consonant exactly. It's annoying.

good story but.....

I could of enjoyed this story. It was very erotic but still romantic. Great plot but it felt like it was missing a back story for the main characters. The back story they did include was very vague and generic. so I never really felt a connection to Emily or the king really. Because of the lack of connection to the characters I didn't have any emotional response to the story. Plus the nerrator spoke in a very fast urgent tempo consistently throughout the book. So there was no charge of tempo to enhance or highlight the emotion trying to be expressed in the different scenes. It made the experience of the book feel like the world's most boring high speed car chase from begging to end without the excitement of any emotions at all. This could of been a favorite with just those to adjustments. I don't plan on listening to this book ever again.

Imaginative, intense, ADULT romance!

An enthralling, imaginative, descriptive, intense, fast-paced, ADULT fairy tale romance.

It was the middle of the night when they came for me. Even now I can’t be sure of the time, whether they waited for me to have been asleep long enough to ensure that I would be super confused if accidentally awakened, or if they had waited until after midnight when my roommate usually headed out for her graveyard shift at the hospital.

Claimed by the Elven King by Cristina Rayne is an erotic paranormal romance told in the heroine’s first person point of view. It contains strong, mature adult content. This marks my first foray into any books written by Cristina Rayne and the first I’ve ever listened to anything voiced by Emily Wahlund. I was originally drawn to this audio as the male pictured on the cover reminded me slightly of The Goblin King. Besides the entitled attitude, the similarities ended there. This is the story of human Emily Ford and Sethian, the Elven King.

As the story opens, we are with Emily, a human, as she is abducted by the elven guard in the middle of the night. She is confused and, at points, in pain, as her body is prepared for the transition from the human world to the world of the Sidhe. She learns that she has been taken to be mated to the Elven King and to produce his heirs because elven women are barren. We are present as she is becomes his bride and as she is integrated into the day-to-day of the elven court. I will add that what happened to Emily would not be ok in real life, but, in the author’s fantasy world, it works well. Amid the throes of a steamy encounter, the couple discover that they are destined soul mates. So what starts out as insta-love, actually develops into a loving relationship.

Emily Wahlund, the narrator, did a very good job bringing this story to life. She consistently voiced and differentiated between the characters exuding the proper emotions. She was easy to understand. I’m glad that I elected to listen to the audio of this read but it definitely required headphones.

Claimed by the Elven King is an enthralling, imaginative, descriptive, intense, fast-paced, fairy tale romance. Besides the frequent, steamy, vivid, extremely hot sex, there’s love, court politics and treachery. The story and characters are well-developed and the tale held my interest through-out. I’d like to check out the other titles from this series. If you enjoy fascinating, exceedingly erotic, paranormal romantic fantasies, I would encourage you to check out Claimed by the Elven King.
