The King & Alpha Series Series, Book 1

Narrated by: Nathaniel Black

Length: 6 hrs and 50 mins

Publisher's summary

Justice Volkov is the youngest Alpha Zenith to ever lead the wolf shifters. Following in his father's large paw prints was a responsibility he met head on. Now at age 33, he is alpha of the alphas. As a direct descendant of the original Siberian pack, his wolf is bigger and stronger than Justice himself is sometimes able to control. His wolf howled long and hard, but Justice kept it inside. It felt like a bass drum beating against his rib cage. The harsh breaths, angry snarls, and the determined pacing inside him were overtaking him. Justice takes his role of leadership and his legacy very seriously. He has little time for romance, not to mention a true mate. His packs are his priority. With a human government trying to regulate them, an uprising of rogue shifters, and a violent team of scientists trying to experiment on them, Justice has his hands way too full.

Chadwick "Wick" Bentley is not enthusiastic when the captain of his escort tells him he has to leave his comfortable London home and go back to the States. As the Vampire King, he has no choice but to get his species back in line before they cause anymore chaos. At over 100 years old, Wick is no one to trifle with, but his smooth, charismatic manner makes him quite unique, despite the negative reputation vampires have. Wick has had nothing but time up to this point. He doesn't feel the need to make issues pressing. Nothing is urgent in his life. Until he meets Justice. His beloved.

"Natural enemies can't be mates." Or so Justice thought. He knows his skepticism and rejection is hurting his mate, so while he fights their connection, Wick gets help from a source very close to Justice to help him win his beloved's heart. Wick is a force all on his own, but when he's blessed with a special gift from the Mother herself, not even Justice's powerful wolf can prevent the prophesy from being fulfilled.

Contains mature themes.

loved it and great narrator

first time listening to an audio book by this author, and cannot wait for the next installment of this series. I recommend this book you will not be disappointed.

phenomenal

I loved this book, this has become my favorite Summer read. I read this three times so far.

JUSTICE AND CHADWICK (WICK)

This is the first story in the trilogy about a family of Siberian alpha wolves who are prophesized to protect the world when the shifters need them the most. Wick is the vampire king who turns out to be Justice’s, the alpha zenith, the most powerful wolf shifter in existence, fated mate. Justice and Wick realize that their bonding makes them able to different things that they didn’t know about, making them a more powerful union to save the shifters from the shifter factions that are trying to undermine the uniting of the shifters and sell them out to scientists.

The narration of this story was great. You could tell when each character spoke and the narrator kept the flow of the story going without a hitch.

interesting listening

well written, with a interesting plot twist. can't wait to listen or read the rest of the series.

excellent

I truly enjoyed this book. and I almost didn't buy it, because I wasn't very fond of the author's other series. but this was wonderful. it had wonderful World building. I will look for more in this series, hopefully not too far out from being done.

Gem from Escape package

PN with shifters, vampires and a MM romance, hot.
Great start to the series, gave you the premise of where the future of this storyline is heading. The main characters are well developed, there roles well defined. Can’t wait to see where book two leads next.
Glad I found this Audible book in the Escapes package.
Narrator Nathaniel Black was unknown to me, but did a nice job in his performance.

Awesome!

Great novel, great narrating, and I loved the plot. I couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Great story!

This was a great read! I really enjoyed listening to it. The narrators did a great job with the characters and bringing the story to life. This is set in a different world/rules with shifters and vampires and they are currently having issues. We have our top two, Alpha and King, that are brought in to deal with an issue and BAM...they find out they are fated mates. Of course, things are not that smooth and as it is very uncommon they don't just immediately fall together. I loved watching these two come together and Justice come around, fairly quickly, to their connection and figuring out how to make things work. They have outside issues that they have to deal with as well and I am super excited to see the rest of the books in the series and hopefully see all of Justice's brother's matched up with their fated mates, there is one that we are teased about and I can't wait to see what comes of it and then of course we have another one that we get just the beginning of. I enjoyed exploring this new world and am excited to see where the next books take us.

19***

Well written great narrative and the magic perfectly matched of two souls that was made for each other. I love this book.

enjoyable story/narration

This was my first A.E. Via story and I found it pretty enjoyable. This was a sweet and sexy fated mate story with a twist. The two main characters of the story were Justice the mega alpha werewolf and Wick, the king of the vampires. I always like when fated mates must work for their HEA, there is a little drama between the two at the beginning, but they quickly move past their differences. I liked Wick more than Justice, mainly because in the beginning, Justice was kind of a jerk. There are plenty of sexy times and some good action scenes packed in this rather short story.

This was also the first audio I have heard narrated by Nathaniel Black. I enjoyed his narration for the most part. He did a good job with giving the vampires distinctive voices but the werewolf brothers all kind of sounded the same. He did a good job bringing this story to life.
