Shielded Heart

The Infinite City, Book 2

De: Tiffany Roberts

Narrado por: Jamie Treselyan

Arthos, the Infinite City, is a place of alien wonders and indescribable beauty—and, most importantly for Samantha, it’s also halfway across the universe from her abusive ex-fiancé. She came to the city desperate for a fresh start, but she finds herself downtrodden on a world of aloof alien beings with little hope of finding her place—and a good chance of being kidnapped or killed before she can even settle in.

At least until she is saved by an irresistible alien with piercing eyes and a seductive smile.

Alkorin is the living embodiment of temptation, and he makes no effort to disguise his desire for her. But when his past threatens to drag her into a dangerous underworld, she discovers he isn’t who he claims to be. After enduring so much suffering, can she bear to take a leap of faith with this mysterious alien? Can she trust him with not only her life, but her heart?

Be prepared for unusual anatomy, heh

This story was really good overall. I appreciate that the romance took center stage but I enjoy the world-building and backstories. I wish FL wasn't such a pushover in the beginning but it's understandable and she comes into her own eventually. There is a good amount of spice in this book for my taste. I was surprised that the description of the male lead wasn't off-putting for me. He has 3 eyes and his manhood isn't quite what I had expected but it didn't bother me. I think seeing him look handsome on the cover art helps. Also, there is tail action sooo... be prepared for that.
I generally prefer dual/duet narration but this narrator does a wide variety of voices. He even does a decent job with female voices! There was only one voice that didn't work for me but thankfully she's a side character who doesn't speak much. All in all, I think he brought a lot of emotion and range. I'll seek out other books read by him.

Witty Banter

I loved the sarcastic comedic timing of Arcanthas! I laughed heartily at so many points in this one. super cute love story and great action scenes

😀😀😀

This was awesome! it five you everything you need! the drama, laughter, sarcasm, lust, love, SPICE!! The man with many voices always come through. the woman's part could have been better with a real woman narrator, but my mad did a awesome job! gave me the giggles on the spicy parts 😈😈

Loved it!

I've been wanting to read this story FOREVER. The character art alone has intrigued me for a while. I can't wait to dive into the next book that continues their story.

4.5 stars

I could listen to Jaime read the phonebook.

I tried reading the first book in this series but DNF'd it a while ago; When I saw Jaime was performing this one and heard the voice he used for Arc in the sample I bought it immediately (his Shadow/Arcanthus voice is just *chefs kiss*). I have since listened to and bought the entire physical series.

I love Tiffany Roberts books so much! Where other stories would have pointless drama and misunderstandings these characters actually TALK! Y'know, like adults. Arcanthus and Sam quickly became my favorite couple ever and I've read/listened to every book just for the small bits they make appearances again.
