Total surrender doesn't come easy to a natural-born alpha. Shape-shifting special operative Brad Durant has been held against his will by the enemy for nearly a year. He's given up hope and is fast giving up his will to survive - that is, until a hot-tempered, redheaded succubus is placed in the cell next to his. She calls to his wolf on a primitive level and he won't let anyone or anything harm her. Giving his body to the little minx is easy, but guarding his heart is much harder.

Bitter and alone, he abandons the emptiness of his realm and retreats to the caverns beneath the palace. In the form of his dragon, he remains hidden from the world, protecting the Dragon's Heart, the last legacy of his people - until he is disturbed by a most unlikely thief.

Renny Landry is a wolf on the run. Pursued by a shapeshifting stalker and his slobbering pack of killer coyotes, she is forced to flee her job as a librarian to find sanctuary in the wooded hills of Alpha, Washington. A well-secluded safe space for troubled shifters, Alpha is Renny's last hope. But the first person she meets there is a gorgeous alpha male with fiery eyes, fierce tattoos, and one ferocious appetite...for her. Mick Fischer thought he left his past behind when he moved to Alpha. But fate has a way of biting him in the tail when a female wolf shows up on his property.
Dani Malloye hates the holidays, and with good reason. Though her best friend tries to force the Christmas spirit on her with giant Santas and elves that light up, she'd rather spend her time doing what she does best - enforcing paranormal law on the streets of Chicago. Nothing like a little evil bloodshed to lighten the mood. Besides, work means she can spend time with her sexy boss, Cornell Sutton. Too bad Cornell is uptight, her new neighbor, and a vampire. Everyone knows slayers and vampires just don't mix. Or do they?
Dragon shifter Prince Kyran has studied the Earth people and is ready to assimilate. Female shifters are all but going extinct on his planet of Qurilixen, and his people are desperate for mates - so much so they're taking matters into their own hands. What better place to capture a woman than Earth? After all, dragon shifters had come from there centuries ago. Surely a human female would be honored to be selected by one as fine and fierce as himself.

When he realizes she's going to take the plunge and marry another - a human - he can't fight his inner beast any longer. It wants to claim her and he's going to let it.
Story: This was short but oh so sweet! I loved the chemistry and heat that was packed into this read.
Narration: Wen's voice was soo yummy! Voice was clear, clean production. I would have loved a little more difference between the character voices but that was my only thought. I got confused in a couple conversations as to who was saying what.
Great Quickie!

This is one super steamy short story. The narration is dreamy. I would have loved more a back story, but it was still a great small read.

Wen Ross did a phenomenal job with this story love the tone in his voice as he carried the strong aloha male of Dante. Looking for a quick hot supernatural shifter read then you’ll love this story. Trisha is human and is best friends with Dante a shifter wolf, the only thing is that she has no idea about his secret. I wish there was more to their story but every second was steamy and loving. Great read highly recommend. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.

Dane and Trisha have friend zoned each other. Besties. They hang out, share bad date stories, and are there always there when needed. They also have the hots for the other which they won't admit. That is until one night they can't hold back.
Dane has resisted because Trisha is human and he isn't. Supernaturals don't mate with humans or so he's told. Will their draw to each other be enough to go against the rules? What will Trish do if and when she finds out what he really is?
The is a steamy short book with a couple you can cheer. The narration, story-line, and characters are all good. This one is great when you don't have a lot of time and just need that book fix while you wait or drive home or cook dinner.
Secrets We Keep by Mandy M. Roth was a great read. Dane is an Alpha wolf-shifter and has to watch the person he loves date and marry someone else. That is because mating with a human is forbidden. I loved reading Dane and Trisha’s story.
Loved this story.....short, quick and to the point! Although I'd love to hear more of Trish and Danes story, it was an enjoyable quick listen in my car. By the way does Dane have a friend? And Wen, as always, kills it with that dead sexy voice!
What disappointed you about Secrets We Keep?
I would have liked to see the story expanded, the characters developed into something I wouldn't mind spending an evening with. This listened like a high school book report.
Would you ever listen to anything by Mandy M. Roth again?
Give me an 8 hour book and I probably would.
Have you listened to any of Wen Ross’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Wen has the deepest, sexiest voice around. It's always a good time when Wen is in my ear.
What character would you cut from Secrets We Keep?
I would probably ADD characters, just to have different points of view
And this one was definitely a good, hot, sexy short story. Mandy Roth knows how to create a great world with interesting characters, and with Wen Ross narrating -- one of the sexiest voices out there doing the narration -- need I say more. Great story, great narration.
What a touching story and I wanted more. Wen Ross did such a great job on this one. I love to listen to him.
