Cornelius

Warlocks of Amherst, Book One

De: Taylor Rylan

Narrado por: Michael Ferraiuolo

Fate knows what they’re doing, right?

Warlock Cornelius is almost 300 and is tired of being alone. When help is needed at a wolf pack out west, he’s quick to go - hopeful he will find his One there.

Matthew is in awe about being in the human realm. Things are so very different than the fae realm he’s from. He was sent to Timber Valley, being told his mate was there, and he’s excited to meet his own sexy shifter. Only his mate isn’t a shifter...

Warlocks and Fae don’t mate with each other. They have an ongoing feud that dates back well over a millennium; to the original warlock and fae. Did fate mix things up?

Cornelius is the first book in the Warlocks of Amherst series. Each book will focus on a different couple and can be listened to as stand-alones but previous couples will make appearances in future books. This book is intended for adults only as it contains a fated mate pair and plenty of magical sexy times that leads to male pregnancy as this is an MPREG story.

well...

I don't know why, but something was off about this whole book.

Here we have a warlock, Cornelius who is helping out a group far away from his coven and Matthew, a fae who just literally walked away from the fae world with the clothes on his back cause I think the fates person told him to. That part was not explained very well. It was also mentioned a lot that fae and warlocks just don't mate.

Anyways, these two spot each other and it's instamates and instalove. Daddy Warlock is over three hundred years old but Matthew is young and has never been with anyone. They figure it out and the young fae gets pregnant immediately.

Daddy Warlock had decided to go back home so after a failed sightseeing tour, end up back there. For some reason, Matthew is really scared of this one warlock but I honestly did not know why until near the end.

Things work out and the baby is birthed through the seam (sidenote, just no. push that sucker out) and everything is all honky dory.

I do not know what was going on with Michael Ferraiuolo's voices here. I am such a fan that I buy unknown writers books just to hear him but the accents were all over the place and what was up with the way Balthazar sounded?

Refreshing

This story was honestly just very refreshing. I always wondered why I couldn't get a story about 2 people just living happy lives and here it is. 2 people just falling in love and wanting to be happy together. Simple, happy, no angst. Just sweetness. And the narrator really helped to for the characters. It's a cute little story with some smexy bits sprinkled in and it's a very refreshing break from all the darkness going on in the wield right now. It's exactly wear I needed.

Wishing for More

I loved the odd pairing; Cornelius and Matthew made an extremely cute couple. However, I found myself wanting more story or depth or something? It had a great idea and backbone, I just wished for more.

Michael Ferraiuolo has to be my favorite narrator. His range of voices and emotion always enhance every reading experience. He knocked it out of the park narrating this novel.

Awesome!

Wonderful story and Michael brought the characters to life with believable voices he's good at making characters sound like people I want to become friends with

fabulous

love Taylors books they are absolutely some of my favorite mpreg books, and Michael does a fabulous job bringing it to life!

Fae's are cute

warlocks & faes make a cute pairing. this was a great start to an amazing series

Fantastic New Series

Taylor Rylan has brought us a brand new paranormal series and her books just get better each time. Michael Ferraiuolo is amazing as a Narrator and doesn't disappoint at all. This is such a cute fated mates story. I can't recommend it enough. Try it - you won't be sorry

Great narration.

Sadly this is definitely in the return bin. There is no other way to express this, slow and boring. If you are having trouble sleeping, just play this in the background.

Beautiful

Matthew is absolutely a doll and he might just be my favorite character in this world. Cornelius has been waiting for his One for a very long time and is startled at first when he sees Matthew. But soon enough, these two are moving forward with their relationship and facing any diffuculties as a pair.

Michael Ferraiuolo does a fantastic job of giving each character their own unique voice and expresses the emotions that Taylor Rylan wrote in such a way that you'll feel as if you're standing within the world that was created.

Sweet and comfy little story

Narration was awesome, Michael Ferraiuolo did a great job. He has a nice soothing voice and great tempo and energy flow while reading. He’s always great at matching his narration, the tone, energy and passion according to the book he’s reading. He also managed to make it easy to distinguish the different characters he’s narrating which is awesome.

Story:
If you want to listen to something with no real angst or high passion but like mpreg (male giving birth), and something sweet and cosy this is the story for you. It’s perfect to listen to before bed or while doing the daily choirs at home. It’s relaxing and sweet, no real angst just very brief moments of it, short moments of sweet passion. There isn’t too much world development here, since Cornelius (warlock) and Mathew ( fae, omega) are mostly staying at home during the story, it’s just a little bit of being out at the beginning of the story.
I would actually say this book could even work for 15 years olds and up, since the “passion” bits aren’t very wild, but more on the tame side.

Overall a sweet book 😊
