Make Me Soar

Collars & Cuffs, Book 6

De: K.C. Wells

Narrado por: Nick J. Russo

Anyone who frequents Collars & Cuffs knows Dorian Forrester is built for pain, including Dorian himself. But everyone has it wrong. For six years, Dorian's chased a feeling that remains tantalizingly out of his reach. Unteachable, Dorian can take anything and everything a Dom can throw at him. Still, it's not enough. Dorian needs...something more, something he won't find at Collars & Cuffs.

Dorian's search takes him out of the safe environment he's known for years, out of his depth, and into a realm of deep, dark trouble.

Alan Marchant has been watching Dorian with interest for a while and knows there's more to Dorian than his label of "pain slut" suggests. When Dorian disappears, Alan and his friend, Leo, set out to find him. But the disoriented young man discovered cowering in a hotel room is not the Dorian they know and love. That Dorian is shattered. It's up to Alan to pick up the pieces and show Dorian there are better ways to fly.

They may be off on a new journey together, but their destination will rock them both to the core.

Dorian and Allen's story

The book starts with Dorian unhappy with his lot in life as he sees all his friends around him coupling up. He begins to think something is wrong with him and searches for a way to become fulfilled. He's gone to all the limits he can at "collars and cuffs" so he decides to go to a different club in Berlin to try something new. If things go very badly and he winds up getting into some trouble with some unsavory characters. Allen and Leo end up going to Berlin to search for Dorian when they realize he may be in trouble and they find him badly beaten and Allen in particular decides he wants to take care of Dorian and nurse him back to health.
Allen ends up taking Dorian back to his place and proceeds to care for him and help him with his physical and psychological recuperation. Throughout this process Allen comes to really care for Dorian and as Dorian opens up to him they decide to try A contract with each other. The two men both learn to trust and respect each other and we find out that Allen also has some baggage from his past which needs to be dealt with. Dorian has a keen sense of what Allen needs just as Allen seems to know what Dorian needs. Together they must overcome their personal demons and with the help of some of their friends who we have met in earlier books in this series it makes for a great story. Up to this book my favorite one was "Trusting Thomas" but I would have to save this one is probably my second favorite. Nick J Russo does a great job of narrating the audible version.

Great

I've been waiting for a novel surrounding Dorian sense book 1 and this did not disappoint. I even enjoyed the performance which honest drove me a bit crazy in other books. I think this is my favorite in the series.

Good book. Worth a credit.

Some reviews are easy, and some listens leave me feeling but struggling to translate that into words. This book is the second kind.

I enjoyed it. A lot.
It was different.
It was well-written.
The narration was so good.
I will definitely look for more K C Wells.

Nick Russo. Wow! He slips in and out of so many accents with such apparent ease and fluidity. Best voice performance I’ve heard in a while.

Phenomenal

This was my absolute FAVORITE in the series!! This couple was honest, sincere and so hot together. The support they had for each other and their close friends were phenomenal. Truly a joy to read 👍😀

Scorching

this is one of the first times i'v read books featuring BDSM and I must say that out of all the ones I've read so far this book has touched me more than any other i'v read. A true work of art. With ever chapter I was drown in more and more. I love the characters. It is a MUST read for anyone who are curious about BDSM. I find this series becoming one of my favorites very fast.

Excellent!!

Where does Make Me Soar rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It would probably be in the top 20

Have you listened to any of Nick J. Russo’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I like Nick as a narrator and I like how he makes each character come alive.

Any additional comments?

This book made be laugh and cry and I have listen to it more than once and will probably listen to it again sometime.

Outstanding Story & Listen🎧 Riveting & Heartfelt!

K.C. Wells delivers another outstanding novel in her “Collars & Cuffs” series. I am loving this series and the characters. I also love the camaraderie amongst some of the members of the club, it is like a tight knit community. Each book features a different couple but you see reappearances of characters from earlier books, which is a great thing. This book is Dorian Forrester and Alan Marchant’s story, Dorian is a submissive at the club, he is known for allowing his Dom to take him to the max of pain during a scene. He has been a member of the club for sometime now and he sees how other Dom/sub’s are pairing up, he is wondering what is wrong with him, why no one wants a permanent relationship with him. He thinks it is time to look into other clubs and on a whim decides to go check out one he heard about. Others at the club noticed Dorian’s absence and Club Master Leo and Alan decide to go and track him down. When they find him, Dorian is a broken shell of himself. OMG, that scene just ripped my heart out. They get him back home and Alan helps to get Dorian back and help him find what he is looking for, a journey of a new discovery. Alan patience was awesome, he also saw Dorian for who he was. I loved how everything plays out in this book, the story is beautifully plotted, with plenty of drama, heartfelt and emotional moments, some angst, some hot BDSM scenes and a wonderful romance. It was great to see Dorian’s character grow as he came into himself. Alan was perfect for him and they were great together. K.C. Wells thank you for another awesome story and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

I listened to the Audible edition, Nick J. Russo is a fabulous narrator and versatile voice artist. He does an awesome job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them. He gives each character their own unique voice which makes it easy to follow the story and who is who. You could hear how much heart he puts into his work as he captures the characters emotions, their vulnerabilities which is heard in his performance. He is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another wonderful listen🎧

good

fun, good book especially to listen to during my commute.. looking forward to other audio books from this author.

Great story

I loved this story. I knew there was more to Dorian than what he let on. While healing he was able to find himself and his purpose. And all he needed was someone to care. And that is what Alan did.

Beautiful

I love this book. This is my favorite book from Collars & Cuffs. I really adore the redeemed character theme. Dorian is a minor character from the first book. I was so happy when this book came out. I wished so hard for his happy ending. What happened to Dorian in the first part of the book broke my heart. But I found his and Alan's journey in healing and finding love truly beautiful.

The narrator is one of my favorites. I love listening to his him. His voice really suits the MCs.

I definitely recommend this book, the author and the narrator.
