Cauld Ane Series, Book 1

De: Piper Davenport

Narrado por: Steve Worsley

Dr. Samantha Moore is one of the youngest and most acclaimed researchers in the world. Her specialty is blood, and she has been recruited by the largest pharmaceutical company in Scotland. For what purpose, she cannot begin to imagine, but in an attempt to break out of her painfully shy shell, she throws caution to the wind and leaves her family and best friend behind in Savannah.

Dr. Kade Gunnach is taking a chance hiring an outsider, but he’s desperate to find out how to help his sister. He believes the key lies in her blood, but so far, no one has found the answers. When the new researcher walks into his office, he’s unprepared for his reaction to her and the life-changing ramifications her arrival brings. They’re drawn together by a force neither is prepared for, but Kade is holding something back. Something that could scare her away.

When Samantha learns his secret, will she run?

Will Kade be able to live with the answers he’s been desperately searching for?

I’ll give you golf claps

The storyline is top tier so I give the Author props but the changing accents as you go is hard so I give the narrator all the love knowing I wouldn’t be able to do it. I like how even without being informed of who was speaking you could tell which character was talking just by the mood change.
All happiness from me 😊

Enjoyable listen to a great story.

I have read Bound by Blood in both versions,, loving each and everyone of them. I was thrilled when I heard an audiobook was being made. I couldn't think of a better way to spend my day working in the yard than listening to Kade and Samantha's story.

i love the uniqueness of this paranormal romance. I had never heard of an immortal that can't stand the heat. They have a colorful history dating back to their origins in Iceland. Kade Gunnach is CEO of a pharmaceutical company in Scotland, a place that stays nice and cold for the most part. Samantha is an American researcher, specializing in Hematology. Her arrival in Scotland to work for Kade. From the moment she lands life is filled with drama, danger, conspiracies, and romance.

The audiobook has a male narrator with a Scottish accent. That makes sense since most of the characters are Scottish. However, I will admit that i was disappointed in his attempts at female voices. It was the reason for the three star rating on performance.

Gripping

This was an entertaining romantic suspense story that ticked all the boxes for me. Well written, the narration was good and the narrator and  easy to listen to. From the first chapter I was hooked on the story that was told. There were equal amounts of romance and suspense which was entertaining. The characters were easy to relate to and I really liked them. The chemistry between them was intense. The secondary characters were just as entertaining and I will be looking at other books in the series ASAP. The narrator certainly did justice to the characters and the wonderful story that the author created.

Great Story

I really enjoyed the first book in the series I am looking forward to many more. Kade and Samantha had such great chemistry. I loved how alpha Kade was and at the same time Samantha was no push over, she challenged Kade at every turn. I love the fire between these two. Piper did such a great job building this new world I am looking forward to each book in the series on Audible.
Let me just say, Steve Worsley did such an amazing job narrating this. His voice had me swooning. I could listen to him all day long.

Love his voice

I’ve been a fan of Piper Davenport for some time. The Cauld Ane series is one of my favorites. And I’ve always enjoyed listening to books I’ve already read when I’m at work. I was thrilled to know an audio version was now available. I love the narrator chosen for this read. I enjoyed listening to his Scottish brogue.

Bound by Blood is the start of the Cauld Ane series. Samantha and Kade’s story is a unique one. Everything from when they meet, through the development of their relationship. And begins to set the stage for future books. I hope the narration of this series continues.
