Captive of the Night

The Mate Games: Pestilence, Book 3

De: Meg Anne, K. Loraine

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, J.F. Harding, John Hartley, Stella Hunter, James Joseph, Jacob Morgan, Jason Clarke

Roslyn Blackthorne is dead.

I should know, I watched it happen.

My twin and I didn’t believe we’d ever meet our mate, and then she showed up in our bar, and the world as we knew it changed. Fate hadn’t been kind to us. Not once. So it shouldn’t have come as a surprise that we lost her as soon as we claimed her.

I spent so much time worried about her manipulative demon, I didn’t anticipate it would be my own sordid past that killed her.

It was our fault. They should have blamed me and Remi. Instead, for the first time since Rosie turned our lives upside down, we are united:

Her vampire husband.

Her hybrid hacker.

Her alpha wolves.

I thought I’d give anything to see those amber eyes of hers again.

I was wrong.

So wrong.

Because the moment I got my wish, it wasn’t my sugar staring back at me. It was a monster.

And now I’ll never be the same.

Warning: The Mate Games: Pestilence is a spicy why-choose series that is sure to set your...heart...on fire. If you’re not a fan of grumpy dukes with a penchant for pain, purple demons with fancy body parts, nosy hackers with boundary issues, angsty wolf shifters who like to share, sword crossing, and plenty of group activities, this one’s not for you. But if it is...welcome back to The Mate Games, we’ve been waiting for you.

obsessed

the Mate games series are some of my favorites and the Pestilence series is included. the story is good but what always makes it the best is the narrators. They're all incredible and I can wait for book 4!

driving me insane

I have lived all of the mate games books so far and having to wait for the final book in pestilence is going to kill me! great story and narration!

Eargasms ahead

I can not express how good the narration of this series is! The story is great, as always. These narrators are fabulous alone, put them together, and wow, can't ask for any better.

Enjoyment

I have to say I truly do Love the performance of this book. Having all the different readers.

Spectacular!

As Pestilence’s plans unfold, tensions rise among Roslyn Blackthorne’s mates. After an angst-filled final chapter in book 2, Claimed By the Shifters, Roslyn’s merry band of a-holes is in turmoil. Her men’s characters are tested; some were found valiant, others showed their true faces. Remy is still my favorite! While this book has the signature witty banter and steam of the first two books, Meg Anne and K. Loraine hit all the feels in Captive of the night with heartbreak, angst, and a soul-crushing backstory. We learn Asher’s full backstory and let me just say, you are not prepared! I love this series, and Captive of the Night has deliciously shocking twists and turns.

This full-cast narration is another fantastic feat in voice acting. I FLOVE how this phenomenal cast has fully taken on these characters. The way Meg Anne and K. Loraine approached a particular character split was genius. Jacob Morgan’s emotional and endearingly snarky performance of Remy was captivating. John Hartley’s portrayal of Gavin was seductive and charismatic as he began to soften to this group dynamic. Stella forking Hunter is a brilliant enchantress! J.F. Harding’s performance of Bentley will shatter your heart; but the growly, overprotective alpharoll will piece it back together. James Joseph’s Pan was epic once again, but will his arrogance be his undoing? Teddy Hamilton’s narration of Asher took on even more snark in this book, and I loved it. His dynamic, raw performance was outstanding; Asher’s backstory was illuminating and crushing. This cast continues to outdo themselves and I can’t wait for more!

This book is perfection!

Meg Ann and Kim Loraine constantly surprise me in this series. I have given up guessing what's gonna happen because I have NO CLUE! I never wanted to put this book down. They hook you in with these amazingly deep characters with huge emotions and then make you stay for the entertaining dialog & steamy goodness. The way they write these characters is so suited to each narrator they cast. It's just perfect.
I went in to this book upset about Rosie, mad at Pan (newsflash, I don't like him anymore at the end of this book), frustrated with Ben, scared for Asher and Remi, he seems to be the voice of reason at times even through all he's going through.
This entire cast is just amazing. Stella Hunter, John Hartley, Jacob Morgan, James Joseph, J.F. Harding and Teddy Hamilton are so funny & hot & every other emotion you can imagine. Fantastic actors in this story!

OMG!!!

LOVE this series and the other Mate Games series... soooooo good! highly recommend all of these books. dying for the last book to be available on audible!!

Captive of the Night

what now pan took over Ashers body. WTF!!! I have to admit this series was a bit more funnier then the 1st set. Pan, Remi and Asher are so funny together. and all the bromance is too cute. but I can't wait for the next book. I need to know what happens next.

Daddy G. 🤣🤣


• Thoughts:
This is the 3rd book of a 4-part book series. Ben is still my favorite. I love Asher and Remi. Gavin has officially moved to my love category, and I am still questioning Pan. Like seriously questioning him. Hahaha

This one was soooooo good. I waant going to read this swries until it got closer to the release of The Lost Moon. But I was in an audio slump. Meg Ann and K. Loraine are brilliant, and so are their narrator choices. I couldn't go wrong... 2 days later here we are waiting for the 4th book. Hahahaha.
This book leaves you with a "Noooooo" type of ending.... (Yes I did say that when the book ended out loud) well all know this was going to leave on another cliffhanger. I am dying to know the end game. I can't wait for the conclusion. Ugh it's so good. I feel like I can't really give away stuff. You need to experience the awesomeness that is the Mate Games!


Narrators:
Stella Hunter, James Joseph, John Hartly, Jacob Morgan, Teddy Hamilton, and JF Harding.
These narrators are amazing!!! I love each and every one! Side note JF Harding is quickly becoming one of my favorite narrators

I guess demons really do indeed do it better!!!

It seems our not so little aubergine demon is just getting started and Rosie isn't the only one in his clutches...

Remi, our resident comedian captivated my heart at the start of this series but throughout this entire book he shattered it. The pain he was feeling for not only everything Rosie has been enduring and the way it is affecting not just him, but his twin Ben as well is enough. Add in the fact that Asher is ripping his heart out at every other turn, and I was ready to run and get the emotional support vodka out of the freezer.

And Ben, that alpha wolf really was not vibing with the way that Rosie has.... changed but once he got on board, he was the ever-present Daddy he always is.

We can't forget Gavin, the Duke of Tears certainly delivered on his name, and I was entirely here for it. As well as the way he was able to get Ben and Remi to participate but probably not in the way you are thinking. That man really is the glue that holds everyone together, and even though he isn't necessarily kind about it he gets the job done.

Then when you think there aren't going to be any more surprises the best of all comes towards the end in the form of a sexy Irish priest...

But don't be fooled by that delicious surprise because you know that Kim and Meg can't just leave you with that. No, they have leave you with the mother of all cliffhangers in the form of Pestilence herself. If you thought War was bad, just wait.

Before I finish off what is another long review, I've got to give it to the entire cast of narrators because they went next level with not only the emotions but the spice as well. Teddy Hamilton, J.F. Harding, John Hartley, Stella Hunter, James Joseph, Jacob Morgan and even Jason Clarke took Rosie's tale to a whole other level.

With only one book left in The Mate Games: Pestilence series will Rosie and her mates be able to do what is needed to be done and what side will Pan land on?? I know I can't wait to find out!!
