Raphael

Vampires In America, Volume 1

De: D. B. Reynolds

Narrado por: Traci Odom

Malibu, California, - home to rock-and-roll gods and movie stars, the beautiful, the rich...and vampires.

Powerful and charismatic, Raphael is a Vampire Lord, one of the few who hold the power of life and death over every vampire in existence. Thousands call him Master and have pledged absolute loyalty on their very lives. But when, in a brazen and deadly daylight attack, a gang of human killers kidnaps the one female vampire he'd give his life for, Raphael turns to a human investigator to find his enemies before it's too late.

Cynthia Leighton is smart, tough, and sexy - a private investigator and former cop who's tired of spying on cheating spouses and digging out old bank accounts. When Raphael asks for her help in tracking down the kidnappers, Cyn's happy to accept. But she soon realizes her greatest danger comes not from the humans, but from Raphael himself.

Battling Russian mobsters and treacherous vampires, and getting betrayed by those they trusted, Cyn and Raphael find themselves fighting for their lives while caught up in a passion of blood and violence that is destined to destroy them both.

Need more Raphael!!!

If you could sum up Raphael in three words, what would they be?

Raphael is one of the best alpha males ever! I have read the series. I like all the books but I love Raphael and Cyn books the best.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Cyn was my favorite because she doesn't hold back. She doesn't play with words or silly head games. I love her feelings for Raphael.

Which character – as performed by Traci Odom – was your favorite?

She had a perfect woman voice. Personally I don't like women portraying a man's voice. I like my men sounding like a man. She did a good job making each voice different.

If you could rename Raphael, what would you call it?

I wouldn't because he's one of my favorite vamps.

Any additional comments?

Please get the next book out on audible asap!!! Need it now!!!

Great Story....need male voice.

Did not care for the reader's voice as a male. Trying to hard to convince

****Thank You D.B. Reynolds****

Finally a Bad A@@ female lead !!! This series is my new favorite!!!! I listened to this on a whim I thought it would like a lot of the other books BUT ITS NOT!!! This is my kind of book.
Of course you have the hot alpha vampire with a sh*t load of power. Then there is Cyn a trust found girl but became a cop and since she is a loner she opened a PI Business and most of her clients are vamps. I like her because she owns her short comings and doesn’t dwell on it she knows her mind and she knows how to handle herself.
This book has a lot of action, dry humor and of course a love story. Totally worth the money I already got the next 3 books!!!!

Character development

Enjoyed the enemy to friends aspects and the banter. Appreciated the strong female character development

Amateurish

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Needs more description, I wasn't drawn into their world.

Has Raphael turned you off from other books in this genre?

Once again: Characters needs more description

What does Traci Odom bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Good Narrator, is what it is... THE STORY

Could you see Raphael being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

no
