The Witch's Familiar

Familiar Mates Book 1

De: TJ Nichols

Narrado por: Matt Stephens

He can hold lightning in his hand, but will love slip through his fingers?

Jude Sullivan has one more chance to prove he isn’t a danger to the paranormal community. If he fails, he’ll be stripped of his magic, a painful process to make a witch human.

As a test, the coven sends him to Mercy South, Colorado, to stop a creature that’s been mutilating cows and scaring the locals. Jude hates cows and small towns. The coven should’ve sent a nature witch.

Rob Mackenzie is the local mechanic and bear-shifter. If the locals knew his secret, they’d run him out of town. He wants someone to really know him and not be afraid. With several chewed-up cows and some other weird happenings, he’s wondering if he’s no longer the strangest creature in Mercy.

After meeting Mack, Jude thinks he’s found the cause of the trouble. But the trouble is only just getting started when Mack realizes he’s Jude’s fated mate. As the cow-mutilating creature starts hunting in town, Mack and Jude will have to quit fighting their attraction and each other, to stop the creature from killing again.

For listeners who love fated mates, bear-shifters, and small-town gay romance.

Needs a better narrator

The story was good, but if the others have the same narrator, I won't be continuing. Like other reviewers have stated, the narrator is bland and emotionless. He has no inflection and doesn't give the right sauce to the saucy bits. Disappointed, honestly, and almost stopped listening after a half hour.

monotone

couldn't even get a half hour in, the narrator was so boring. I couldnt focus or understand anything with how plainly and emotionless he read.

Fun and enthralling!

I can’t wait to see what else TJ Nichols has to offer in this series!

download

when I first viewed few chapters I decided to download, once started listening to it chapters messed up and jumbled out of order, not sure if I'll finish =(

Good story. Good narration.

I like Jude and Mack. They are interesting characters with an interesting dynamic. The subplots were entertaining. I am a bit bored with the 'unseen overlords controlling a character's destiny' scenario though. I have a bit of trouble empathizing with a character who is intimidated by the powers that be. Jude certainly thumbs his nose at them, but doesn't seem to have a plan for fighting back even though his incredible power is the source of his problems. Sigh..

I did enjoy the story, and I am curious about the rest of the series. I really appreciated the vivid descriptions of the creature and scenery. The action scenes were also nicely depicted.

The narration was well performed.
