Times of Change

Book 1

De: B.L. Dawn

Narrado por: Troy Duran, Heather Firth

When a wolf-shifter was in a pack, they were ranked according to gender and power. Luckily for Tatum Roloff, she didn’t have a pack. Or was it?

Tragedy befell her family, leaving her in charge. Being a unique female wolf-shifter with both submissive and dominant characteristics, Tatum stepped above the image of a male-led society. She learned to take charge and survive, placing her happiness on hold to be of service to her family.

When the time came to hunt for a pack, a plan formed to find a true mate. The Green Lagoon Pack accepted her, but she found herself in conflict with the beta brothers. Cade hated her, and Luke maybe loved her.

Will Tatum be able to focus on her pack and find love, or will she let the shifters who hate her new female ranking destroy her chances of both love and service for her pack?

Her True Mate Obsession Got Annoying!

The begging of the story was interesting and then it started to get annoying with her true mate obsession and the story just kept on dragging on. It got weird that all of sudden towards the end of the story she started to have memory lost. It’s like author just threw it in there towards the end for a cliffhanger ending to hype up the next book. But for me it just made me frustrated. Kinda bummed I wasted a day and a credit.

Troy Duran got all the stars

Yeah. Troy Duran's narration of this book is the only reason it got any stars from me at all.

Heather Firth's narration of the FMC comes off as androgynous and flat. She does better when voicing secondary characters in this particular book, but the FMC was not well done.

The story had real potential. The execution in the writing was... terrible.

A dominant she wolf who wishes she were submissive. Ok, I'm listening. Except... the author clearly has no idea what dominance actually means. I had to DNF during the second major confrontation with FMC and Kade. There is no way that this chick is a dominant wolf, with dominant instincts. And for a character we've been told repeatedly is constantly thinking, spinning new ideas, strategizing, etc.... her utter lack of communication is absurd. She should have immediately told her alpha of her suspicions of Kade over the silo fire. She let Kade walk away with evidence in his pocket? Hell, all she would have had to do was scream to grab people's attention.

And for someone who is absolutely fixated on finding herself a mate to love her... she brutally put Luke down when he asked her out. Like, phew! that rejection! It made absolutely no sense in her character makeup, and contradicted everything that the author had repeated countless times up to this point: she wants a man. Uh.... apparently not.

I just honestly don't care anything about the FMC. At all.

Also, for those of you who like to focus on a single couple per book... this is not for you. This is formatted more like a saga, following the lives and relationships of numerous couples. We flit back and forth pretty consistently, thru their POV's and storylines.

I'm off to find something else with Troy Duran in it.
