Tyson Compass, as one of the famed Compass quads, is not a wizard used to living with regrets. Except for one: Grace Carter. Grace is a healer witch he rejected many years ago. After completely disappearing from his life, she has returned and turned his world upside down. Tyson does everything he can to prove he will never hurt her again, and just when he thinks there might be a chance for them, she has to leave again. She makes him promise not to follow her, but after almost two months with no word, he’s done waiting. He’s going to find his girl.
In Minatsol, being a dweller means that you are literally no better than dirt. In fact, dirt might actually be more useful than Willa. Her life will be one of servitude to the sols, the magic-blessed beings who could one day be chosen to become gods. At least her outer village is far removed from the cities of the sols, and she won't ever be forced to present herself to them... Until one small mistake changes everything, and Willa is awarded a position to serve at Blesswood, the top sol academy in the world - a position that she definitely did not earn.
Abigail Swish's life is nothing to brag about: gang-ridden city, orphanage style accommodations, and a matron who's kinda on the evil side. Not that she has to worry about that for much longer. She'll turn 18 soon, and then it's goodbye compound, hello dangerous streets of New York City. Of course, as her luck would have it, she doesn't make it to 18 before her world is turned upside down. One ambushed meeting with an accent-bearing, sword-wielding stranger, and suddenly her entire life as she knows it is a lie.
It all started when infected bats bit a small group of humans and created what are now called vampires. Then, the male vampires knocked up some female humans, and the result was a gorgeous race of all male ash - superhuman freaks that had looks to kill. Charlie is the first female ash, aka unicorn of the Hive - the gated compound in Portland that the humans have designated to isolate vampires and ash from society.
Arianna is a queen heir and at 20 years old she's now eligible for the crown of wolf shifters. Heirs are trained and groomed so that they're ready should the queen perish during their time of eligibility. Of course, there's little chance of that happening. The Red Queen has stood for a century, and her power is beyond reckoning. Or so Arianna believes, right up until the final tolling of the bells. The queen has fallen. Four heirs will now fight it out for the crown.

Seraph Black used to think that she was prepared for anything. She could last days without eating and she always walked away from the violent altercations with her father relatively unharmed. She survived working at the club and the drive to school every day in her mother's rust-bucket of a car...but it all changed when Noah and Cabe came bulldozing into her life, careless of the precious secrets they picked apart in their quest to take over her world. She was even less prepared for the mysterious Miro and Silas, and nothing could have prepared her for the bond. The connection.
From author Jaymin Eve comes a new chapter in the Supernatural Prison World....
Maximus Compass is a vampire without direction. Without heart. And without soul. He lost his true mate in the great battle against the dragon king, and now must face life alone.
And yet something is happening to his agony. It's fading away, leaving him with barely a memory of the female he believed to be his one and only.
As his mind clears he starts to wonder if the mate bond had been nothing more than a manufactured ploy. This suspicion explodes within him right around the time he runs back into a certain wolf shifter.
Mischa Lebron is a complication he doesn't need in his life. He can't erase her from his mind though, and while memories of his supposed true mate continue to fade into mere shadows, his one night with Mischa is blazingly strong. But they're not of the same supernatural race, so there's no way for a true bond to exist between them.
Right?
When an old threat rips apart their pack, Maximus will come to realize that he would do anything to save Mischa. That the mate he thought was perfect and precious was nothing on the shifter he walked away from. Now Maximus truly has everything to lose.
love the story, ongoing from the previous series, however narration was really lame. wierd emphasis and tone. if I'd didn't like the story so much I would have quit. hope the author continues on with the the other two C and maybe Louis?

okay but the male narrator RUINED IT!!! I am so completely and utterly disappointed at how he just ruined this book. So monotone he just read it.... didn't even bother trying to change the sound of the different male voices except for Louis's and it was just HORRIBLE. Louis is supposed to be this badass sorcerer and he made him sound like Steve Urkel all nasal and nerdy like. I love all of Jay's books, a huge supporter and it hurts my heart to have to leave a review like this. The writing is good unfortunately this story seems to be VERY rushed and definitely not up to par with the other Supernatural Prison books.

I loved this story! But the male narrator almost made me stop listening. I'm sure he's great otherwise but his lisp really bothered me. His voice portrayals were also not as good as the previous 3 books in this series.

The storyline was good but the male narrator (Chris Kipiniak) was horrible and the female narrator (Eva Kaminsky) was ok.

I read the reviews before I got this book but I didn't think they would be as accurate as they were the near raider in the story who reads the malecharact

Characters didn't develope, plot was uninspired... What ancient, powerful race would refer to themselves as "SUPS"??

The male reader dulls the characters. It’s difficult to get through the chapters he read which takes away from the story.
So after reading the other 3 books and being thoroughly entertained by both the narration and story, I was let down. The story itself was a solid wrap up of the dangling parts of the story and I liked the Micha and Max story line. What killed it for me was the narration. Maximus Compass is an all powerful sexy strong 23/24 year old. He was read by someone who sounded like a scrawny middle aged nerdy guy. This unfortunately really distracted from the story. I would have much preferred if Michas narrator would have read the Maximus chapter as she gave the character more strength and I believe he was a powerful vampire when she read Max. Not so much when he read. If you really want to know how it all turns out with the Lebron twins and Compass Quads read it, don’t listen. I imagine it will be far better. Wish I could go back and unhear parts of this story.
loved it, if you haven't read theses books go for it ,you can read them in order or stand alone, my choice in order, strong women lots of action what's not to like.
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
I can't think of what could have helped.
Has Broken Compass put you off other books in this genre?
Genre, no but series and author - definitely. I won't download something with these narrators again.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
The male narrator's voice did not match the character's description. He has a soft feminine tone that even when he tried to deepen his voice, it didn't last. And he accentuated all words too much. The woman had a strange lilt to the end of her sentences, I'm not sure what accent she was supposed to be.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Annoyance.
I love Jaymin Eves books. They are funny, emotional and intelligent. This was no exception.
Unfortunately in this audible book. Chris read Max story and his female voice grated on me. If Eva just read the entire book it would have been fantastic. Or if Eva did all the female voices and Chris did all the male voices that would have been fantastic as well. The way it was read was like you had 2 totally different authors writing 2 different stories. You had to constantly figure out what was happening and who was who. it totally detracted from book.
Great story, saw this part by accident. Already heard the first three and was not impressed with the narrator. This book I listened to as it was different and split voiced, I am super glad I did as Eva Kaminsky is for me much better to listen to. Thank you for writing these books I look forward to more of your work especially with Jessa & her pack
