Into the Lion's Den

Secrets of the Northland Shifters, Book 1

De: A.S. Green

Narrado por: Nathaniel Gray

It's not just Shifters who lurk in the shadows.

Mountain lion shifter Reese Fitzpatrick never expected to be running his father's business—a luxury resort hidden away in Minnesota's Northland. But when his father is killed by a hunter's bullet, it's up to Reese to keep his father's legacy alive.

The job would be hard enough without the arrival of Sarah McAvoy, a mysterious woman with secrets of her own.

While she quickly has Reese’s mountain lion purring inside his skin, she's also such an irritating distraction he wants nothing more than to snarl and bite her.

But Reese has more to worry about than an accidental reveal of his animal nature.

If he and Sarah can't get past their differences, overcome the slow-burn of their sexual tension, and make the summer a financial success, the Fitzpatrick land could soon be covered in parking lots and strip malls.

Turns out, Reese's father wasn't the competent businessman he always believed him to be. And those vulture real estate developers are already hovering. Just waiting for Reese to fall.

That is, if the hunter who killed his father doesn't return to get him first.

Into the Lion's Den

Are you freaking for reals, you just had to end the book like that. you are so mean. anyway, this book started off really well, I enjoyed every bit of it. I promise guys you will enjoy the book very much. I know I sure did. I can't wait to get myself the next book. I so need to know what happens next.

THEIS IS A FUNNY & DYNAMIC SHIFTER ROMANCE

STORY IS GREAT WELL WRITTEN AND EASY TO FOLLOW.

ACCEPTABLE FOR MATURE LISTENERS. NOT CLEAN HAS ALOT OF SENSUAL CONTENT.

NARRATOR WAS GOOD AND EASY TO FOLLOW.

Solid Shifter Story

I really needed a solid shifter story and this fit the bill. Reese Fitzpatrick finds himself in a hard place after his father was murdered trying to keep their family resort afloat. Sara is running from a bad situation and bad people back in Chicago.
Full of sexual tension and chemistry Reese and Sara had to learn to work together, deal with their attraction all while keeping their secrets from eachother. Reese was a bit of a jerk, bordering on rude in the beginning…considering she was there to help him and his business, but she was more than a match for Reese. He also pushed so hard to deny himself and what they had together. I am hopeful he gets his act together in book 2 :)
I LOVE shifters and A.S. Green got them just right, a bit growly, possessive, stubborn and bossy.

Narrator: Nathan Gray did pretty good with the female voice, that's not always the case. He was a built stilted for the male voice but I quickly fell into the story and stopped noticing.

into the lions den

The story is so great. But Seriously it had to end like that! Narrator did a good job and was really easy to listen to.

Slow burn shifter story

Reese and Sarah fight with each other as much as they work together to decipher clues about a murder and save a resort.
The story ends on a serious cliffhanger, and the relationship between Reese and Sarah is not resolved. Fortunately, the next two books are already available, so no long waits to find out what happens next.
While their relationship remains up in the air, the chemistry between Reese and Sarah is instant hot, and believable.
I liked that the reader was able to experience the shifting process. I also really liked that Sarah was never a damsel. She made intelligent decisions and stood her ground.
Nathaniel Gray used an excellent growly alpha voice for Reese. He did well with the narration and other characters, too, but I particularly his reading of Reese.

Really Enjoyed

I enjoyed this book the story sucked me in right away. The narrator was great I do wish there had been a female narrator for the FMC but it was still a great book with a really good plot I will definitely be continuing the series.

captivating

Into the Lion's Den is very well written; easy to listen to; and captivating. All the time, I was engaged in the story! The story continues into the next books, but it ended in a good place, so it can be read as a stand-alone.
Nathaniel Gray did a wonderful job of narrating this book. Although it would be even more enjoyable if the difference between male and female voices would have been more noticeable.
Altogether, a good entertainment value.
I was given this review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I really enjoyed it.

The ending is not nice and I really need the next book to be on audio because I so enjoyed listening to this one. Reese and Sarah have amazing chemistry and the twists and turns keep you listening. I look forward to the rest of the series.

3 star listen

Ok I thought this would be like other shifter series when there is be book per couple. This is in the case, nothing too much happens in this one, 100% more background is needed around the reason she’s in witness protection and who is deceiving the big cats.

Both of which are left floating at the end of the book.
3 star listen.

Sexy shifter romance

I really enjoyed Into the Lion’s Den. I liked that Reese was so attracted to Sarah and felt so protective of her right away. I also liked how Sarah was so competent at her job even though she got thrown into it. I felt like how hard she worked really showed Reese she cared and would stick with him. Two things I didn’t like. First, when Sarah gets her ass grabbed by a hotel patron and Reese gets super protective but then tell her she shouldn’t have worn that dress. I didn’t mind the protective but didn’t like that he blamed her clothes. My second and larger issue was that this didn’t feel like a full book to me. I felt like the ending left the story pretty unresolved. That being said the next one is out now and this is a quick read so that’s not a deal breaker. However, it definitely lowered my rating.

I listened to the audiobook version of this book and I liked the narration! I didn’t like Reese’s voice at first but after a few minutes I was ok with it.

I got this audiobook on storyorigin in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.
