Carnelian

The Chalcedony Chronicles, Book 1

De: B. Kristin McMichael

Narrado por: Hollie Jackson

Everyone has a past, but for most it isn't so far in the past as Seth Sangre. His past is literally from thousands of years ago. Seth's past led him to the present seeking something that might help him save his country from destruction. He has been in the present for over three years now, and he just found exactly what he has been looking for. Mari had dreams of college being a fresh start, one where she would start over and not fall for the good looking player like high school. Unfortunately for her, that's exactly what ends up falling into her lap on the first day she moves into the dorms. Now she has to hold to her promise to herself not fall for the handsome Seth Sangre. But he doesn't plan to make it easy for her. Seth has already marked her as his next conquest.

As the semester progresses, Mari learns that Seth might just have a past of his own that's literally in the past. Suddenly, Mari finds her future along with her past put into question. She's connected to Seth far more than she ever wanted to be, and maybe he isn't the player who she thought he was. If Mari can trust her heart enough to follow him, Seth will lead Mari on an adventure of a lifetime-and reveal family secrets she never knew existed.

Loved it.

Narration was not bad at all which is always a risk but the narrator done the story justice.

Not the story I was expecting, a pleasant surprise

This book is a 5 plus for both the author and narrator! The book wove a story of Mari an ordinary girl who longed for some spark of adventure in her life. Off to college she goes and finds the wildest adventure and possibly love that she could imagine. Mari is a funny, full of wit gal that was easy to like. Mari becomes good friends with Seth and his brothers Ty & Dee. As their adventure moves from the college campus, we learn how complex the guys really are.

While I tried to guess at the outcome of story, sure that I was right based on typical writing, I was *wrong*. The story with it’s twists surprised me in several spots. Carnelian did end on a good note. It left me wanting to know more and to solve more of Mari & Seth’s background. I hope to read in the next books more about Ty and Dee. The narrator was able to soothingly tell the story and draw me in to the point where I missed exit on the commute. I was totally in the driving zone listening to the story with no commuter stress. This was my first narration by Hollie Jackson.

great job

love how you write I get sucked into the story and feel like it's happening around me
