Damnation: Reckless Desires

Blue Moon Saloon, Book 1

De: Anna Lowe

Narrado por: Kelsey Osborne

He hasn’t forgotten her, and she hasn’t forgiven him. Jessica Macks is a she-wolf on the run from a band of murderous rogues. When she finds a job at a shifter bar, it seems like a safe haven from her hunted life on the road. But the minute she walks through the swinging doors of the Blue Moon Saloon and comes face-to-face with the man she once loved, she’s tempted to march right back out. No way, no how is she risking her heart to that infuriating alpha bear again.

Simon Voss thought he lost everything in an ambush months before: His home, his family, his past. His new job at the Blue Moon Saloon is a desperately needed fresh start on life. Then along comes Jessica, the irresistible she-wolf his clan forced him to reject years before. When Simon is obliged to hire Jessica and work side by side with the one woman to ever make his bear go wild, he’s half in heaven, half in hell. He hasn’t forgotten her, and she sure as hell hasn’t forgiven him. Is this just another path to heartbreak or his last chance to claim his destined mate?

Behind the doors of the Blue Moon Saloon, alpha shifters confront their darkest fears and their deepest desires.

A paranormal romance with adult content. The perfect listen for fans of strong heroines, alpha heroes, werewolves, and shapeshifters, red-hot cowboys, romantic westerns, paranormal suspense, action-adventure romance, and fantasy romance! Each book is a complete stand-alone story - no cliffhangers!

Mess with these destined mates at your own peril.

Welcome to the Blue Moon Saloon where clan and pack unite much to the rogue Blue Bloods’ consternation. A rogue purity movement has no place messing with destined mates.

In Damnation the reader is introduced to Jessica and Janna Macks, two she-wolves on the run from the brutal decimation of their pack and the neighboring bear clan. At wit’s end, they are extended safe haven by the local wolf pack. You might recall this pack from Ms. Lowe’s Wolves of Twin Moon Ranch series. Safe haven, however, comes with a hitch. Living and working with the ex might be too much for the average gal but this is one she-wolf up to the task. While Simon is still all she ever wanted in a mate, Jess won’t be giving Simon a free pass anytime soon. Nope, it’s going to cost this bear another walk through hell as he fights to keep his mate safe from pursuing rogues while hoping love comes with second chances.

Damnation is narrated by Kelsey Osborne. She does an awesome job. I’m seriously looking forward to listening to further stories in the Blue Moon Saloon series. If you like great paranormal romance that features wolves and bears where danger is always waiting in the wings you’re going to love this series.

Great start

I enjoyed the story. The author held my interest all the way to end and I'm curious to read the other two books in the trilogy. Maybe the author will include stories about the wolves. The narrator was surprisingly good. Can't find to many people that can narrate.

Great Start to Shifter Series

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend to any friend that loved shifters. Would also recommend to those that are willing to try something different.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved the whole story but my love affair started when Jessica walks into a bar. Also love how a shifter lets you know where their territory is.

Have you listened to any of Kelsey Osborne’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not listened to other performances but that will change when I listen to the second book in this series.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The moment that moved me was the point where Jessica and her sister started to insert themselves into the everyday workings of the bar. Simon didn't know what hit him. It's a story that shows how two people with diverse backgrounds can love each other. Just like in real life, we have to stop judging a person by what they are or what they look like. Jessica has such a kind heart that you don't want to see her get hurt.

Any additional comments?

I loved listening to this book. Having Ms. Osborne read the story allowed me to really concentrate on what she was saying as I went about cleaning my yard. She also made me realize that I was missing something. This story picks up where the prequel leaves off. Once I read the prequel and find out how Jessica and Simon come to meet, I'll listen to this one again. And I can't wait to listen to the next book in the Blue Moon Saloon series. At this point, I can see myself listening to this series more than once.

I voluntarily reviewed an audio version of this book.

great story great narrating.

loved this story, looking forward to next audio book. i got lost in the story and got through my gym workout without realizing how hard I worked. Loved the bear and his wolf and the hardships they went through to get back together.

Sensuous and suspenseful shifter story

Audible Version: I enjoyed this second chance romance story with a bear and a wolf shifter who fall in love and then are separated by circumstance. A good solid storyline, with likeable characters.
The narration seemed almost flat to me, but acceptable.
