Bite of Loyalty

Blood Oath, Book 1

By: R.L. Caulder

Narrated by: Noel Harrison, Brooke Daniels

Being the sole survivor of the Van Helsing family was never a burden I wanted to carry.

Yet here I am, an orphan with a score to settle against Dracula for orchestrating the near genocide of my bloodline. One small kink in that plan: I was turned into the blood-sucking creature I was born to destroy.

Being admitted into the Dark Imaginarium Academy to hone my new skills as a vampire and to survive the blood lust is the first step towards achieving my revenge. No one is prepared for me to infiltrate their ranks, but I know they aren't going to let me get my revenge without a fight.

What I'm not ready for is the three vampires that make my blood burn for an entirely different reason.

Luckily, I'm okay with coating my nails with the entrails of anyone who stands in my way.

My name is Alina Van Helsing, and I'm out for blood.

Bite of Loyalty is the first book in the Blood Oath series. It is a paranormal romance featuring a female lead with a backbone made of steel and three men who will fight her tooth and nail as she is on her path of vengeance. If you love enemies to lovers romance, dark secrets, sassy and strong heroines, plus forbidden love, look no further. Intended for mature listeners.

NOOO!!! I need the next book!!

I was super intrigued about this book based on the summary. It exceeded my expectations. This book is FANTASTIC! The story gripped me off the bat and never eased up!! But now I’m suffering from cliffhanger despair!! My only small criticism is I wish there were a few more chapters giving the MMC’s insight on a few plot twists. I’m SOOO glad that this was released with male and female narrators. The more audiobooks I listen to, the more not having dual narrators is a deal breaker for spending a credit. If you are a fan of paranormal romance especially RH, you gotta give this one a chance. Absolutely worth the credit

Great story but mediocre narrators

I have the same thing to say for all four books from the series. The author did a great job of creating a fast paced story that kept me invested the whole time. Maybe it could've been 2 books instead of 4 but I also understand why they ended up split up. Alina is a strong FMC. Her mates are strong and dominating when she needs them to be but open and vulnerable also when she needs them to be. The spicy scenes are hot because of their dynamics.

The narrators just don't have range. Brooke Daniels barely seemed to change her voice between all of the female characters. When she had to voice a male character her solution seemed to just be adding a weird rasp to her voice. Noel Harrison seemed to differentiate between the male characters a little better, but when it came to voicing female characters he's so bad at it that it feels like he's mocking the female characters

Devoured in one go!

Wow what a badass FMC! The strife and heartache she goes through, the bullies around every corner and her relentless courage to face each up hill battle was truly a treat. Plus that plot twist at the end?!?! I can’t wait for book 2!
The narrators were amazing, I’m not a big fan of female narration due to that shrillness most get when they are expressing any emotion wasn’t here in the book, she expressed a wide range of emotions with a alto voice that didn’t make me cringe lol
Nole Harrison is one of my top favorite narrators, he’s growly deep baritone gives me goosebumps in all the right ways, and he knows when to use it! When the MMCs felt emotion, I could hear it. He is always an instant but when I see his name!

Surprisingly good!

Loved this book! Strong FMC and good storyline. My only complaints are that it is a really short book and now I have to wait for more. The narrators are great but I do wish it was true duet narration. All in all it was very entertaining and can’t wait for more! That ending ! 🤩

Bingeable

The perfect paranormal angsty spice I didn’t know I needed…

Noel Harrison and Brooke Daniel’s always do an amazing job with narration and this story was no exception!
