Juneau Heat

By: Tressie Lockwood

Narrated by: Hillary Hawkins

Length: 6 hrs and 4 mins

Publisher's summary

Shiya flew to Juneau, Alaska to confirm if the man she's been chatting up online is truly a shape-shifter. This was to be her first job in the field. As a tech geek, she's used to staying behind her computer and gathering all pertinent information about the existence of shifters so her family - shifter hunters for generations - can go and do the dirty work.

All Shiya was supposed to do was to seduce Birk into revealing himself. What she didn't count on was how hot the man was in real life. She couldn't deny their chemistry and the reaction her body had to Birk. When Birk suggests they act on their mutual attraction, she can't say no. Then he sets the stakes even higher. He wants her to make his best friend her lover too. Kotori is the hottest Native American Shiya has ever seen, and her lust is ignited even more, especially given the danger she sees lurking deep in Kotori's eyes.

Two lovers - her family doesn't have to know she took the seduction to something physical, right? And when her play is over, she can go back home to San Diego with no qualms. After all, they're just animals. Shiya's reasoning is put to the test when her heart gets involved, and her life in danger when Birk and Kotori reveal they know who she is. Shiya's family wants Birk and Kotori dead, and her lovers want to lure the famous hunter family to their deaths. Shiya is caught in the middle. All that's left is abduction and seduction until something gives.

Good, if you can get past the narration

I almost turned this book of several times throughout the first couple of chapters. The narrator has a really annoying voice, uses the same cadence for every sentence, mispronounces multiple words, and reads soooo slowly!! Once I got "involved" in the story, I was able to get over the narration and focus on the story.

Surprisingly, the book had a decent story line (for a shifter romance book). It wasn't just about the sex, even though there was plenty of that. I'm considering getting another book in the series (if there is a different narrator).

I've always love tressie's books

Better Readers are Available

The person reading this book didn't know when to add emotion or when to change her tone. Several times while reading a serious part she would have a up tick in her voice that actually ruined the scene
