Narrated by: Gwendolyn Druyor

Length: 37 hrs and 30 mins

Publisher's summary

The gods promised her a savior.

The gods are a bunch of lying bastards.

Instead of delivering her from a life of slavery, they ripped away everything she ever cared about.

Now, Kathrael must choose. Lie down and accept her fate, or risk her life and try to change the future.

Destiny is calling, but she won’t face it alone. She has a gentle seer, a crazy lion-shifter, and the ghost of her dead best friend on her side. Of course, none of them have the faintest clue what they’re getting themselves into. But that’s all right. Because Kathrael of Rhyth has chosen to fight for freedom.

And as far as she’s concerned, the gods can either step in line, or get the hell out of the way.

The Complete Lion Mistress Collection is a reverse harem/poly romance trilogy with an exclusive bonus epilogue story. It clocks in at over 300,000 words, and the ending is HEA.

A special note for reverse harem lovers: I had never heard the term "reverse harem" when I wrote this series. It was always conceived as a poly romance story, just like The Horse Mistress. That said, it features one amazing woman who ends up with three adoring men at the end, and she is the glue that holds the four of them together.

The pace is medium burn, and the books contain explicit sex with strong LGBT content. If you dislike M/M, you’ll dislike this series.

HOLY WOW!!! I freaking loved this!!! so hard ❤

This series was so fantastic! all the books together was a very long audio listen. But I was hooked! I loved all the characters and their relationships. kathrealle, Ithrik, Fabian, even Vesh! (i listened so I don't know if my spelling is correct) their journey together was riveting! I highly recommend.

I cried,I laughed, I melted

This is the best poly romance I have ever listened to. It was extremely well preformed. The story was entrancing. Excited for the next series.

Amazing listen!

Extremely well written and immersive, this book had me hooked from start to finish. Great characters, they are all complex and interesting. I loved the relationship dynamics and the humor of the banter between the characters, it feels natural. The narrator is amazing! She put so much emotion into her performance and had unique accents and voices for each character and region they were from. I highly recommend this collection! I received a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Definitely Recommend

Don’t let the title stop you from reading this book. This is not a bondage story nor does it spend overmuch time on sex.
This book reminds me of Jacqueline Carey’s Kushiel series, but with much less intrigue. It also has a bit more explicit sex, but not too much to take away from the story.

Book 1: Chapter 1: Kathrael loses her best friend and protector Vesh, and decides to go on a desperate quest to change her life and, maybe, obtain vengeance. Instead, she finds acceptance, support, and love.
Book 2: Chapter 27: Kath, Ithric & Favian travel to Rhythe undercover to determine how volatile the situation is and if they can help free the slaves. They end up with another surprise rescue.
Book 3: Chapter 51: Things heat up in Rhyth. The Trio is there to stop the king’s purchase of advanced crossbows. They get help from the Wolf Patron, Sonovo, and his bond mates Andoc and Caravel, who walk with the Trio and the slaves who revolt against the King.
The Trio receives a more personal surprise.
I enjoyed this book, but think it could have been a touch better with more editing. The world building - a more primitive society that thinks an eclipse is the personal involvement of the gods vs very modern dialogue was a slight disconnect. It did not materially take away from the story.
Bonus: Chapter 81: 4 in a bath
Bonus: Chapter 82: 4 in a bed
These bonus stories didn’t add to the Lion Mistress unless you wanted group sex.

Druyor did a very good job with narration: clearly defining between characters, their individual emotions, and even when they were sleepy, eating or singing!

Totally worth it!!!

The story was great and the sex was fantastic! I would wait till you have a credit as it was an expensive book but it was worth every penny!

loved it

I absolutely loved this book. it was a smooth and well-written story that grabbed my attention from the beginning. I loved the characters and the plot. It actually had a story, not just sex like a lot of romance books today. I recommend this to anybody who loves romance with a strong female lead that has a heart big enough for more than one love.
This audiobook was given by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased.

Loved it!

I absolutely loved this part of the series! The Horse Mistress was good but this one was much better. The story line was great, we got to revisit characters and see other growth as well. I definitely recommend and would listen again.

Love this series!!!!

I absolutely love the books and the narrative is wonderful. Can’t wait to hear the next one!

Awesome sequel

If you lived the Horse Mistress, this ones just as good with more story, more supernatural events, just MORE. Except the sec, it's the right amount if sex ;)

The complete lion mistress collection

While I am not usually a fan of overly sexual orientation books containing gay and bi situations, this book was interesting and I am glad I read it. The characters and story were amazing.
