The Bureau: Volume 2

By: Kim Fielding

Narrated by: Joel Leslie

This collection contains the fourth and fifth Bureau novellas.

Chained

An agent for the Bureau of Trans-Species Affairs? That’s the best job in the world. And it’s enough for Terry Brandt, who doesn’t need personal relationships complicating his life. His newest assignment puts him undercover, investigating a Hollywood agent who may have some evil tricks up his sleeve.

Edge is not the man he appears to be. Although he’s a member of the Hollywood agent’s security staff, his true situation is darker and deeper than that. Ordered to seduce the new prospect, Edge finds himself caught in conflicting loyalties.

Haunted by their pasts and tied up in secrets, neither Terry nor Edge can afford to allow passion to interfere with duty. And with danger dogging them, it’s impossible to envision a future together.

Convicted

Vietnam veteran Kurt Powell’s addiction almost cost him everything, but a job as federal agent with the Bureau of Trans-Species Affairs helped him find sobriety and purpose. Now he tracks down dangerous paranormal creatures as well as humans who abuse their magical powers in illegal ways.

Sent from Belfast to the United States as a boy, Desmond Hughes later fell into a disastrous relationship that led to horrific murders. He’s spent 17 years in a bleak prison with few comforts and no hope of release.

A new mission throws Kurt and Des together in a desperate attempt to prevent disaster. Sometimes what’s long been lost can still be found, but the road to redemption is never easy - and a mutual attraction may not ease the way.

Lovely

These books are full of such awful things and yet are so hopeful and sweet without being saccharine. Some of the sex stuff feels unnecessary and a little jarring but it’s a Thing with the genre. I like that the stories build on each other while being separate and that they are so creative! I’ll definitely relisten.

another great collection

Kim Fielding has a knack for writing the best and worst of "humanity".
• Chained: runs about 4 hrs 20 mins • Convicted: runs about 5 hrs 25 mins
• I'll happily listen to these again. Both stories kept me engaged, the characters interesting and their stories raw and emotional.
• Joel Leslie does a stellar performance giving each character his own voice and bringing the Bureau world to life.

Hate Shrivels the Heart

I'm elated after hearing this audiobook. It's exciting, beautiful, emotional, romantic and wonderfully written. It was hard not to fall in love with the characters and I'm not one who looks for books to make them teary but I loved every emotional moment. However, these stories are more about excitement and adventure and Kim Fielding delivers. My favorite quote, "Hate shrivels the heart and burns you from the inside."

Joel Leslie is the king of narrators. All the meaning, all the color, all the nuance is served on a silver platter.

The story and plot development were great.

These moved quickly and very engaging. I look forward to the next book eagerly. Particularly interesting is how the story weaves prior plot and characters

Nice voice skills. Amazing plot.

My favorite series so far! And I can't imagine a better narrator than leslie! He's so enchanting
