Born to Be Legends

De: Hailey Turner

Narrado por: Gary Furlong

Some endings are just new beginnings.

Patrick Collins earned the peace he’s found in New York City with his pack through sacrifice. Six years out from the end of the world, he’s satisfied with the life he’s built and doesn’t think about what else the future might hold until he stumbles his way into a hostage situation he didn’t ask to be part of.

Jonothon de Vere would like nothing more than to wake up each morning with the love of his life and never deal with trouble again. Except Patrick has always been a magnet for such crises, and Jono isn’t one to stand idly by when his lover could use some help.

It feels just like old times when that’s the last thing they want, but maybe it’s also the reminder they need that the future isn’t set in stone. Maybe, just maybe, Patrick and Jono are finally ready to take the next step and walk down the aisle together.

Born to Be Legends is what fans of Hailey Turner’s best-selling Soulbound series have been waiting for.

Back for a little more

I love when authors come back and give us a little more. This was a short about Patrick and Jono and it was great to hear the duo come back together to solve a situation and then get a little more to their happily ever after. Now need to start all over from the beginning.

finally got married

I love it they are finally married I hope in the next book I have a feeling the dragon will have a second book can't wait for them adopting a kid

wonderful farewell

Patrick and Jono really did deserve a quiet epilogue, and I’m thrilled to read it. I will say that A) getting married doesn't feel quite like them and maybe it's because of the reason and B) in some ways it feels incomplete. However, I loved glimpsing their family when not shrouded in war and what six years of peace looks like. It’s gratifying how emotionally healthy and safe Patrick is and how far he’s come from the reckless powerhouse on a hair trigger. As Jono has always been (relatively) emotionally mature and stable, he thrives in the life their family has built and leading a strong god pack that shelters and supports the were-community.

However, he’s still hardcore and has no chill when Patrick seems to be in danger. Of course, Sage is working behind the scenes, and Wade's ready to burn ish down. The hullabaloo Patrick finds himself in is resolved quickly, and the story continues as a cozy reflection on overcoming the hardships that cemented their bond and a celebration of love and friendship. I was disappointed that Marek, Emma, and Leon weren't included in this celebration. Marek is basically not there, and Emma and Leon are completely absent, which causes the aforementioned feeling of incompleteness.

It's essential to focus on their god pack, but Leon, Emma, and Marek provided Jono unconditional love and the closest to a pack he ever had before Patrick appeared. Marek sacrificed much of his sanity, and their banter, bonds, and support also helped Patrick open up and learn to trust so it’s odd for them to be dismissed without even some hugs at the wedding. I feel like some of the word count used to explain the world for any rando that decides to buy book 7.5 in a series could have been dedicated to them, but that was an on-going shortcoming in this series. That said, I did enjoy the cameos that are present and some interesting new faces.

Patrick and Jono are indeed legends, and they suffered through years of all the loss, heartache, and fear that journey demanded. They needed a story all about their happiness and that warmth shines through. They’ve earned their peace and this final goodbye, a goodbye that would feel incomplete without Gary Furlong. He fills all the words with the love, happiness, and peace the pack has earned and makes this final goodbye even sweeter.

Awesome but short sigh

Love this but so bitter sweet they’re world is over :( wish for more adventures in this world. Thank you for this little glimps in their happy ever after

Excuse me while I go sob

“We’re married.”
“Yeah, Pat. We’re married.”


UGH. This was such a perfect ending and I’m so thrilled to see past side characters return as we watch these two walk down the aisle and tie themselves together with vows alongside their soul bond.
Now, we KNOW Gary is utter perfection but he just blew it out of the park with this one. The hushed tones, the smiles, the quiet laughs?
Damn.
Ever single aspect of this novella was utter perfection.

Great Ending

This was a nice, short follow-up and conclusion to the Soulbound series. I’m glad that the readers of the series get to see this ending but it feels like it would fit better as the actual epilogue to the last book, or even as an extra that came out closer to the release of that book and not so many years later.

As usual Gary Furlong did a great job with his performance of the book. He has truly helped this world come to life in the audiobooks.

I received a copy of this book and this is my honest opinion.

Great Send Off

"We've deserve a quiet epilogue, don't we?"

This was a bittersweet and amazing ending to close out this series. This was definitely for the fans, but I'm not mad at it. We got to see the happy life the main characters have made together at the end of all their hardships.

Amazing send off.

Lovely Epilogue??? Hope not!

Having listened to and been entranced by the entire series, I found this to be an exiting addition to the world we have been introduced to and engrossed into with ALL of these characters - who have (as a talented storyteller is able to do) become our friends.

I hope for and look forward to additional stories and hopefully full novels from this universe.

Much deserved ending

Please take note that you need to have read or listened to the whole Soulbound series before listening to this book.

I loved this series and think that this story is the perfect "end" for Patrick and Jono. The pack has been through so much and deserve to spend the rest of their lives in peace.

I had a good chuckle about what encouraged Patrick to ask Jono the all important question. I think it played out nicely and Sage finally got what she wanted as well.

Patrick finally got his long withheld vacation and it was perfect.

Enjoyable quick listen!

Really loved this Soulbound novella with its amazing cast of characters, and fast paced action.
