Resumen del Editor

All ice dragon shifters have a fated mate. But Andrew was never allowed to find his. At 18, he was forced to bond with a rich 70-year-old man.

Now that man is dead, Andrew is unable to bond to anyone else. He’s never felt so alone.

Timber has worked as a professional daddy dom for more than 10 years, when his agent comes to him with an unusual proposition. An omega from New York needs a hired knot, and he’s willing to pay an exorbitant sum. The contract comes with a picture of a beautiful man and a list of demands that are so in line with Timber’s personal interests, it’s uncanny.

At the end of the list is a nervous request:

“I’d like you to call me ‘baby boy'. If you wouldn’t mind.”

Timber can’t refuse a request like that.

Expensive is a gritty D/s love story set in the omegaverse with age play, hurt/comfort, and mpreg of the dragon egg variety. It was previously released as a short story. This version has an additional 30,000 words.

While Expensive is set in the same world as the Heron Manor series, it stands alone.

Loved it

Absolutely love the story and I think the narration was equally fabulous. Really enjoy this narrator combined with this author’s work.

Wonderful story!!

I loved every minute of this audio. My heart aches for Andrew and Timber. This was a bit more angsty than what I’m used to from Amy but it’s worth it!! I loved Zachary’s narration. His voice for Timber was exactly how I imagined it to be!

Full of Angst and Goodness!

Fantastic performance of an outstanding story from one of my top authors. I will say I had to stop listening a few times because of the angst but wow… brilliant overall!

A cute omegaverse romance!!

Andrew and Timber had so much chemistry between them!

The premise of the story interested me and I'm so glad I gave this one a chance.

The narration was enjoyable and on point.


Definitely recommend this

Love the book

Such a great way to start a series. This book sees a lot of loss, 18 yr old omega Andrew tied to a dying man who couldn't bond, a wolf shifter kept in captivity who also can't bond. When Andrew asks Timber to help him, with his bond egg,little did they know they would fall in love and loose more to become mates. Very enjoyable

Tore out my heart

These two broke my heart. Andrew is a dragon shifter that was magically bonded to an old Alpha who then dies. Poor Andrew suffers from what is called a bond ache, meaning that he feels that he wants to bond but is unable to do so & it sounds dreadful. And since he is an Omega & he has inherited a lot of money from his Alpha but the family & Andrew's father doesn't feel that he can take care of himself & they want to get their hands on that money. Timber was rescued from a breeding pit, apparently the Alphas are kept to breed the Omega's until they become pregnant. They are sold to human traffickers. Timber has had muzzled, meaning his teeth extracted, so he couldn't bond with the Omega's. Timber is now a porn star & Andrew hires him to help with his bond ache. With no teeth, Timber is unable to bond with Andrew. This is all just a horrible life for the both of them. Turns out that Andrew is a Little, which I loved! When they meet, the sparks are instant. I loved watching these two fall in love and what they go through so they can stay together showed just how deep true love goes. I would have loved to see the babies :)

A joyful bundle and true love

I have read a few Amy Bellows novels and most of them are quite fluffy and light but this one is a good, different story. I like D/s books when they are done right and I think this one was done really quite well.

It’s not everyday we see a dragon shifter who is an omega and vulnerable. After living a life he didn’t want under the pressure of his toxic family for some years, now Andrew is finally free of a marriage he finds no joy. But now he can’t bond with anyone and he’s in need of an alpha for his needs. He finally decided to hire an alpha who will fulfill his every needs. And Tom is a pornstar who has also worked as a professional Daddy Dom for years. When a young and beautiful omega offered an exorbitant fee with a list of demands, he knew he had found a very interesting client. Both of them thought they were exchanging money and needs and neither of them expected to fall in love and of course a very unexpected pregnancy also came along to mess with an already very chaotic situation.

I’m happy that they found their happy ending despite all those hardships and struggles they had to overcome. Tom was exactly what Andrew needed to soothe his wounded soul and heart. It was a lovely shifter book and Zachary Zaba’s narration was an enjoyable performance. Loved it.

Good Listen

Andrew is an Ice Dragon and has been through a lot due to his family taking advantage of him. He has been cursed to have a bond ache and never have a bonded. He hoards books and loves a certain sexy porn star. Timber has been through the wringer literally. He is a red wolf and protective of those he cherishes. He is a Daddy and proud of it. I received an ARC of this audio for my honest review.

I adore Amy Bellows

The blurb didn't quite prepare me for this story. Somehow I expected the sex, but not the warlocks, though I'm not sure why. It doesn't matter, because I love what I got! I enjoy Amy Bellows' world building, it's unique in my experience. I also loved how sacrifice was turned into change. Hope for more very soon!

Dragons

This book has good narration and a story full of twists and turns. The characters are well developed with a rich world building. And Ice Dragons.
