I Kid You Not

Magical Mates, Book 3

De: Macy Blake

Narrado por: Michael Dean

Zachary Perry is willing to do whatever it takes to win the heart of his mysterious, gruff, and oh-so-gorgeous forest-ranger neighbor, even if it means transforming his very bookish, nerdy self into someone (gulp!) outdoorsy so he can fit into Roan’s world.

But when Roan saves him from a seduction plan gone awry, Zachary quickly learns that a fondness for woodland fun is the very least of their differences, for Roan is no mere forest ranger, he’s a forest guardian—a magical creature duty-bound to guard both the land and an entire population of supernatural creatures Zachary never knew existed.

Meanwhile, Zachary...well. He’s very, very human. And that’s something he cannot change, no matter how powerful and intense the connection between them may be.

When something dark and dangerous looms deep in the forest, threatening a pack of children, Zachary insists on leaving the safety of his home and fighting alongside the man he loves.

But when the danger is past, will he be able to find his place in the supernatural world he’s discovered and trust that Roan wants him exactly as he is?

Great story

I truly enjoyed the story , and the continuation of this pack! Can't wait to listen to the next book!

Another good one

The forest guardian and his mate. Fun story, good continuation to get to know some side characters. Lots of heart and one might say bossy trees 🌳

Great Plot

I enjoyed the plot and the characters.

I would recommend this book to a friend

Very low angst, wonderful story!this is a great addition to the universe and series! Narration was superbly done.

Loved it!

The storyline was fun and the characters were adorable. I can’t wait for the next one.

Love the Chosen Universe books

Macy does it again! Another fantastic book in her Chosen Universe. This time we get a forest spirit and his “human” mate, more of Nick and his pack, a couple more of the children find their new parents as well! Next up can’t wait for Ollie’s story!

Wonderful continuation!

Great book with heartwarming continuation of the series. It brings new characters as well as giving some further info on the overall progression of Nick’s pack and storylines. I love this series and can’t wait for the next book! Narration was also wonderfully done, as per his job on previous Macy Blake’s wonderful audio books. He’s great to listen to! <3

Love this series

I love every book/audio of this series and all related series. Listen to them often. I hope we don’t have to leave this world anytime soon.
The next can’t come soon enough.

Okay characters, zero plot

Michael Dean’s narration for this series is always good, but as far as the plot goes, this is easily the weakest book in the entire Chosen One universe. Absolutely nothing happens in the overall series story, and very, very little in the lives of the two incredibly minor side characters who center this particular book.

Roan has almost no personality (particularly since he’s absent for half of the book; don’t worry, though, you’ll barely notice he’s gone). Zachary may as well be gone, too; he’s a pale copy of bits and pieces from other characters’ personalities. Oh, and then there’s his deranged “best friend,” who is on page for a single shopping trip, then pops in to commit armed assault for *absolutely no reason,* then completely disappears, never to be heard from again.

As far as I can tell, the only reason this book even exists is to (sort of? VERY weakly?) introduce Ollie’s love interest for the next book, but it’s done so incredibly lamely that I really wish I’d just waited & skipped to the next book.

If you’re at all on the fence, maybe give this one a pass.
