Publisher's summary

For vampire Aidan Murphy, life has never been so desperate. The vaccine used to treat a global pandemic has rendered human blood deadly to his kind, leaving them on the brink of starvation and civil war. In tiny Penton, Alabama, Aidan establishes a peaceful community of vampires and unvaccinated human donors. He dares to hope they can survive - until his estranged brother descends upon Penton and begins killing the humans. Determined to save his town, Aidan kidnaps an unsuspecting human doctor…and finds himself falling in love for the first time in nearly four centuries.

Dr. Krystal Harris thought she was coming to Penton for a job interview, but Aidan Murphy has other plans. Infuriated by his high-handed scheme to imprison her in the small town, Krys can’t ignore the attraction between them. But is it love? Or does her dangerous, charismatic captor want only to bend her to his will?

Not Young Adult Book

I see this book on my book to try and I have avoided bcuz I thought it was a young adult book. This is a good romance with a good amount of action in the mix.

Good Book

the book was good. The story line ok. it would make a better read then listen. a female reading the book was not very good. Esp when she tried to do a males voice.

Wow!

What a nice surprise! I will be getting the other books in this series. Good story and narration. Worth the credit!

"Is This the Mothership?"

Would you consider the audio edition of Redemption to be better than the print version?
YES, as Ms Dawe reads it. She does the authors' wit and sarcasm so well. The humor sprinkled throughout the story made this a good listen. You bark out a laugh when the humor hits.

Would you be willing to try another book from Susannah Sandlin? Why or why not?
the next books in this series are read by a bad reader! I have plenty to listen and my curiousity to learn how this series plays out is not strong enough to put up with a bad reader. Heck the sample in #2 is just awful. Ms Dawe should re record this series.

Have you listened to any of Angela Dawe’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
She out does herself in this one due to author great humor. I wanted to hear Miran's story, but next reader is awful. If you like A.D. check out her Tiffany Snow's series...yummy men!P.S. I am a big fan of this reader.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
yes I did. shame I will have to skip book# 2. I just can't listen to any more bad readers!

the narrator is awful

I have stopped listening to dozens of books because of this narrator. How she continues to get jobs astounds me. Every sentence is read is the most dramatic, death-defying, Oh-My-God format that the story is lost. that is the only way she reads each sentence. it is horrible. how unfortunate for the fantastic authors to have to be subjected to this narrator.

Sooo Boring!

Synopsis sounded interesting even exciting, could have been if the book was no more than 3 hours long. Exceedingly predictable. I was reading the last half while gardening so it wasn't always easy to fast forward. Skipped thru all the detailed lovemaking, as each one was a repeat of the last one; copy-paste, copy-paste.
Unfortunately, I have the other ones in the series, maybe the story will improve in the next ones. The narrator was okay, could have used a bit of enthusiasm.

Returned due to narration

I do not care for this narrator and didn't get far in the story because I couldn't tolerate her.

ok

Ok, fair, slow and even boring: sais it all. suppose it is good to fall asleep to.

Horrible read
