Shadow Voice

Blackwood Pack, Book 5

By: Mary Rundle

Narrated by: Nick J. Russo

The Blackwood Pack saga continues....

This is part of an on-going series and listening to the previous titles is advised. Listeners of the past books will enjoy meeting old friends once more, as the pack does what it does best - care for each other.

Slate, one of the last Dire Wolves, has carved out a life which suits him fine - plenty of traveling to exotic locations and an abundance of one-night stands to handle his needs. While he’s happy for his brother, who has found his fated mate, Slate isn’t interested in finding his - at least not for a long time. That is, until his body betrays him. Seeking his mother’s help - who is an oracle - Slate pays a visit to the Blackwood Pack where he finds the Fates have once again, messed with his life.

Dakota, the chef for the Blackwood Pack, fell in love with cooking as a young child and, ultimately, the kitchen became a place of refuge for him. Suffering with a "curse" through much of his childhood, he relied heavily on his mother’s help to deal with it. After the massacre of his mother and siblings by their greedy uncle, Dakota barely survived, but finally was able to forge a life for himself, content to stay home and take care of the people he loves.

A long-hidden secret, rejection of a mate, acceptance of rare gifts, and a brutal kidnapping are just some of the obstacles Dakota and Slate must battle together to save their relationship. As the pack rallies around them, both must learn to trust the other before they can find the happiness that the Fates have ordained for them....

I love the story line

I always love the storylines in Mary's books. Not only do you get one couples story, but also new characters and the continuation of the pack's story. Nick brings these stories to life with his voice. I have been a fan from the 1st book.

WOW

Another great story of the Blackwood Pack! Nick J Russo brings it all together with such great narration. I am so sad the rest of the series is not on audible, but on to the kindle app for the next

Outstanding addition

Another great addition to this series.
Wonderful job by Nick J Russo, so many voices to perform.
Definitely NOT a standalone, you need the back story...
Only a few Brother's and their stories to go.
patiently waiting!!!
Well worth the credit and your time to listen.

This series just keeps getting better and better!

I am so hooked on this series in audio format. I’ve never read the books with my eyes, but I’ve listened to all of the ones in audio format and I love what Nick J. Russo has done with them. He does a particularly great job with Shadow Voice. There are many different characters and he gives each one a distinct voice. He also does a great job with accents; I really love his Scottish accent.

Because the blurb is so detailed, I really recommend you read it. I will tell you that parts of this story brough me to tears. There are some fairly gruesome scenes but they are necessary to the story. I wonder how in the world Mary Rundle manages to come up with such intricate, yet very different stories in this long running series.

If you enjoy a large cast of characters and a variety of different shifters, I really think you would enjoy reading or listening to The Blackwood Pack series. I’m looking forward to listening to more of the books. If you can’t wait for them all to come out in audio format, books 1-10 are available to read now in Kindle Unlimited.

A copy of this audiobook was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author.

Finally

I was so excited to know more about Dakota! This love story is high in emotions, heat, and angst but sooo worth it! Once again the narration is amazing and the characters are perfection!
