Bound & Controlled: The Complete Series

M/M BDSM Boxed Set

By: Shaw Montgomery

Narrated by: Kenneth Obi

Length: 17 hrs and 26 mins

Publisher's summary

Everyone approaches BDSM in their own way. Brothers Garrett, Brent, Grant, and Bryce are no different. While each are involved in the BDSM scene in some way, what they want varies. Dominants, submissives, and switches, get to know them as they find love and explore who they are and what they need.

The Owners: A Bound & Controlled Prequel

Bound & Controlled is a gay BDSM club that offers its members a quiet place to meet and an intriguing place to play. Owners Ben and Conner watch over the club with a firm hand and a caring heart. When they see members who are unhappy or troubled, they can't resist stepping in and lending a helping hand.

Garrett

There were only so many times in a week you should have to see someone you were...attracted to...infatuated with...but certainly didn't have a crush on. Doms didn't have those. Especially on a customer who probably wasn't even gay, much less a sub. Business 101 - do not flirt with a client.

Brent

Brent's legendary bad luck when it came to men was undeniable. If there was a wanna-be Dom in a hundred miles, he found them. But even he couldn't have predicted what would happen next. Mixed signals and too much time off won't make it any better, or will it?

Grant

Grant had always loved more feminine men. A sexy guy in lingerie just did it for him. But when you looked more like a bouncer than an insurance agent, the pretty guys ran for the hills. Carter seemed different, though. When he looked at Grant, he saw the real man underneath the tattoos and muscles. Could Grant make him understand that he liked Carter just the way he was?

Bryce

Bryce was confident when it came to work and his family, but hesitant when it involved relationships. He'd found subs that he pulled to him and Doms that could make his knees weak for a scene or two, but no one that tugged at his heart or who could understand what it was like to be both a Dom and a sub - until he'd seen Troy and Oliver....

Great Series!

I loved reading this but hearing Kenneth Obi narrate it made it that much better! It was great that all four books are together in one audiobook as the stories are a little on the short side.

Entrancing, beguiling, heartfelt ....

Stunning, absolutely stunning. No anxiety, no crime, no peril, just delicious supportive friends and family interactions ... this is the way you'd want your kids to learn and live if they needed dominance and submission in their lives ... this is kinky family life at its best. The personalities in these books are so well written, and the pairings so unique and comfortable. I know I"ll be listening to these books many, many times.

amazing

shaw and kenneth.. omg... they are amazing together.. shaw writes these perfect.. indepth characters and somehow kenneth takes these characters from paper and put them into these amazingly wonderful personalities and words. kenneth is perfect for these roles and these people. i loved it

as good as the ebooks

The story is always full stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. Kenneth Obi is one of the 2 narrators (so far), I can listen without break and have no problems to follow.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:


5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening, but not more then twice a year.
it's like a B

I love the story

I loved the story but the narrator made it boring no feelings at all it was just bland reading. I think it needs to be read with more passion

Total Adoration

I loved meeting this unique family and their plus ones (or more). For a group of adult men, they frequently act like small boys waiting to tattle to mom. lol. I didn't like Nora (mom). She was way to nosey and in her son's business. The storylines are enticing and the narrator voice adds just the right tease and tickle for total enjoyment. I enjoyed seeing the relationships between the brothers (and their partners) . They truly seem to like and care about each other. I enjoyed the comraderie. Great fun read I'd highly recommend. BDSM elements are light and enhanced the read.

superb

The author doesn't know how to tell a bad tale. I get so wrapped up. I want to listen to my books at work but I can't. I get too involved with the story. The narrator just has this smooth voice that I could listen to all day.

GREAT SERIES

WONDERFUL NARRATION AND STORIES! Awesome family dynamic, very little angst, mild kink but great heat level! Each brother has a unique story that grabs you!

Great collection of kinky stories!

This is a great deal, considering that you can get these books on their own for full price, or get this one bundle that has all of them! There are 5 stories in this collection (well, a shorter prologue starter story and then the 4 main stories) one for each brother. These four brothers, Garrett, Brent, Grant, and Bryce, are all in the scene (as are their parents!) and work together as well. A couple are doms, one is a sub, and one is a switch. You get to learn all about these four through their stories.

Although you could get the stories on their own and just get one, I think these flow really well from one story into the next. They all work together, so you get to see them really interact together. Some of my favorite characters were Wyatt, Carter, and my favorites of the brothers is probably Grant.

I think that for people who are new to kink, this would be perfect. It's not too hardcore, and you get a nice mix of different forms of kink (lifestyle, scene-only, crossdressing kink, threesome, etc). There is romance, emotion, not too much angst or melodrama really, and happy endings.

For the most part I enjoyed the narrator. There were times where it was difficult to tell which person was talking, especially if it was all of the brothers together. Also sometimes the deeper voices seemed a bit too...forced? Not as natural sounding or something. But I loved his voice for Wyatt, he was a doll, and Oliver.

I received an audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

Love it!

I loved the book, the writing the narration, all of it. I love box sets because, for one credit, I can get all four books, but in addition, these were amazing stories. I loved the character building, and I really got to know the characters.
