So glad Jace fond Deni!

What made the experience of listening to Feral Heat the most enjoyable?

Jace and Deni are two characters that have been mentioned in the past books of the series. I would never of thought the author would pair them together but I am glad she did. I am still intrigued at the segregation of the shifters, and the lopsided laws not allowing them to have modern technology etc. This is paradigm makes this series that has great sex scenes, largely due to their animal nature and really interesting characters.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jace and Ellison cracked me up.

Have you listened to any of Cris Dukehart’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Great narrator.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Call of the Wild!

Another Hit!

LOVED IT! Another great book by Jennifer Ashley! Absolutely love this series. Can't wait for the next book...

Let it be done!

Well... Jaysus. I loved this book! Jace and Deni have both found their other half. Deni and Jace are both characters that I have loved since they were first introduced!

There was a fight for sanity at times but one thing is for sure, no two shifters have ever been more right for each other. They’re both two pieces of one pie. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for them next!

AWESOME

I LOVE SHIFTERS UNBOUND.. I loved jace warden sonce he appeared in Eric and ions story. I am so glad him and Dennie got their HEA

Healing romance and important answers

I liked the way that Deni met Jace. Shifters have primary purposes involving violence and sex. I hate how nobody takes Tigers insights seriously enough. How he got so wise, other than seeing mating and child bonds, is a fascinating mystery. I’d like to know more about.

Book hog

All of these books are well written & very entertaining. Sorry for the spoiler but book 1 & tigers story are the best & I am close to done with the series. Ok honestly tigers book for me wast the best listened to it 3 times.

Not costly if you buy both kindle and audio books

Would you consider the audio edition of Feral Heat to be better than the print version?

I like them equally. You can swift back and forth with no looking for where you are in the story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I have been waiting for Jace's story and am sorry it was so short. Also I feel bad for Deni and what happened to her.

What does Cris Dukehart bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Just life to the characters that I like.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Jace Wardens

Feral Heat: Jaces story. Jace is from Las Vegas Shiftertown, he comes to shiftertown Austin to help work progression on the removal of the collars. he finds His mate in Deni Austin a shifter that was run down while out riding he motorbike. this short story is still a very intense experience for the listener, JA did not disappoint.

Love for the series

Really enjoy these books they have all the things that you need mystery comedy, fantasy, and romance

Very Good Novella, but Costly

This is a great novella, and interestingly enough, it actually advances the progress in one of the major story line arcs. While most authors that I read offer novellas in their series, you can usually feel free to miss them, since they are generally hook ups for side characters and don't advance the plot much, if at all.

We've met Deni and Jace in previous books. She's the wolf shifter who had a bad motorcycle accident that left her having spells where she goes feral and attacks everyone around her. Jace is the son of the leader of the Nevada shifter town, and he's came to Texas to help the leaders of Deni's shifter town, who are trying to find a way to remove shifter's collars.

Jace meets Deni and sparks fly right off the bat. Their chemistry is very good, and Jace's presence calms Deni's feral beast. I do wish the author had explored Deni's problems a little more, perhaps made them more of an obstacle than what they were. I love imperfect characters, and her's has been a favorite of mine. Unfortunately, while it is brought up, and some of Jace's efforts to calm her are mentioned, it's all a bit glossed over for my taste, and thus the 4 stars instead of 5.

The other thing I'm not pleased with is the price of this book. This was a novella priced as a full length book, and that seemed a bit much to me. I did spend a credit on this, but I did it grudgingly and with the feeling I was being robbed spending a precious credit on such a short book. Audible, you can do better than that!!!

Cris Dukehart's narration was close to perfect. She has a pleasant reading voice, and does a marvelous job with accents and both male and female voices.
