Mark Me

Immortal Vices and Virtues: Her Monstrous Mates, Book 4

De: Mila Young

Narrado por: Stella Rose, Michael Joss

I’m marked…but I won’t be tamed.

Loss has scarred my life. I’ve trained relentlessly, endured unimaginable pain for one goal—to face the beast who watched me, who came for me. But took my family instead.

There’s nothing I won’t do for vengeance.

Until three sinful and unhinged monsters find me, emerging from the shadows with sharp teeth, and with claws that could pull apart my life as easily as they do the buttons on my dress.

They think they can break me... Absurd.

Yet I’m caught in their twisted war in a world in ruins and fraying at the edges. They won’t leave me alone, insisting I belong to them. That they’ll make me irrevocably theirs.

Resisting the fantasies they promise grows harder with every passing day, and it scares me how easily I’ve started thinking of them as my own monsters.

But I remind myself I obey no one. Especially when I’m starting to suspect that they had a hand to play in my family’s death.

They aren’t the first monsters I’ve faced. They’ll most certainly be the last…

Mark Me is a STANDALONE book.

Author’s Note: Mark Me is a steamy, shifter romance with darker themes, enemies to lovers tension, three possessive and cocky aIphahoIes, a tough and sassy heroine who refuses to choose just one man. Dive in and enjoy this standalone book.

Excellent addition to series

MIla Young is a new author for me. However, I have listen to several books in this series, and this one does not disappoint. This is a "why choose" tale. Stella Rose is amazing. Michael Joss did an amazing job as well!

Page turner

The same people who tried to kill Billie as a kid, killed her parents. Billie is now on a mission to find out who they are and why. Captivating, addictive, drama, adventure and amazing characters.#TheFlockonTour

Needs More Development

Death came for Billie when she was young but took her parents instead. Since then she has survived with a charmed necklace and a false identity and focused on finding answers. Who wanted her dead? Who killed her parents? And when she finds the answers, justice for her parents and retribution for her lost life will be hers.

This story had such potential but never developed it. Billie had a clear mission but was sidetracked by hormones. We never get to truly know the Dukes or Billie. Billie's magic remains a mystery other than its source and what about her wolf? She never shifted; was she unable to? What about other shifter qualities, strength, or senses? She was portrayed as trained with her weapons and martial arts, however her fighting skills were negligible when needed. Where was the fierce girl, determined to wreak vengeance on her parent's killers? More than anything, I was disappointed by the lack of communication. She went to Finland to gain an audience with the Dukes, to find answers. She lucks out and encounters them immediately and is their fated mate. This is the perfect opportunity to get any answers. But no, she never speaks to them because they might be involved even though everyone considers them honorable and they deny any involvement. I don't like story contrivances and the lack of communication felt like one.

Stella Rose and Michael Joss were the narrators. I am a fan of dual narration but it is uneven in this production. Stella does a fine job, although some of her more excitable moments don't sound natural. However, Michael Joss is less successful. His range is limited, so all of the Dukes sound too similar. Worse, he speaks in a low tone making it difficult to hear. I don't know if this was a professional choice or a production decision but it made listening harder than it should be. I would suggest another trip through the editing booth.

Immortal Vices and Virtues: Her Monstrous Mates

Book 4 in the multi author series Immortal Vices and Virtues: Her Monstrous Mates. A great addition to the series that can be read / listened as a standalone. A reverse harem, paranormal romance read that is thrilling and twisted in all the best of ways. Young delivers a captivating storyline from the very beginning and the dual narration by Rose and Joss is amazing. I have to give extra points to Joss with great vocal changes for the characters he voiced - what a great job! Our main female character Billie is fiercely strong and independent, but she's no match for her fated mates. Haunted by her past in more ways than one, will Billie and in turn her mates find their HEA or will the secrets keep them at odds? A bit of a slow start on the steam factor but once there - yikes was it smokn' hot! Loved the sweet and alpha protectiveness along with all that steam factor. Overall, a well written and fantastically narrated paranormal romance read - definitely looking forward to more!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I voluntarily provided this review.

Entertaining story

Story -
A fun and engaging story that really drags the reader/listener along for a ride.

Narrators -
Stella was awesome. I love the life and emotion she brings into the characters.
Michael has an amazingly deep and gravely voice. It would have been nice to hear a bit more emotion. Sometimes lines were read so flatly, it was completely at odds with the emotion a character was supposed to be expressing.

Technical Issue -
Stella and Michael's volumes were different. Michael's parts were much quieter than Stella's. I had to listen to it at a higher volume than I like because at my normal volume, I couldn't even hear what Michael said at times.

I want my credit back

I could not make it past a few chapters. The voice actor was just to much. The female voice actor reading, sounded like she was in love with her parents death. The males was not as bad. I don’t know if it was the writing causing it. I just could not get past how the female voice was like “ oh my heavens what do I do now sound!” I felt like I was listening to one of my mom’s old western Fabio romance novels. I am sorry I hate giving reviews like this but it was just not the right voice sound to what was going on. I mean she is supposed to have some anger, grit sound in her voice but it really was like it sounded like she was madly in love with everything going on. Not every voice and sound is right for every book.

Another epic IVV read!

This one starts out with a bang! Drama, suspense, fight scenes and ultimately, it’ll be tearing at your heartstrings before you’re even through a single chapter. What a bad-$$ this female lead is—and the reader is instantly dropped into a wild ride.

This ties in with Claim Me (by Lexi C. Foss) very well, as the leads in this installment are under King Caspian’s domain/ jurisdiction.


💙 Fated mates.
🩵 Female lead living on the lamb.
💙 Supportive girl bestie.
🩵 Broken heroine.
💙 Mysteries everywhere.
🩵 Mercenaries.
💙 New Adult (female lead is 21 ish).
🩵 Small age gap ( 6-8 years).
💙 Harem with brothers.
🩵 Monsters! We’ve got a very active tail, forked tongue, multiple 🍆, etc.
💙 DDLG (Khaos).
🩵 Trafficking.
💙 Some vi0lence, fight scenes.
🩵 Betrayal, deceit, scandal, double ‘agents’.
💙 All different types of magic—it’s epic!
🩵 DP
💙 Group scenes.

Overall: this was an incredibly fun read, with characters I loved, plus one I loved to hate. The action scenes are delicious, and the fight scenes feel realistic. I did predict the mystery and who the mole was, but I predict everything and there were clues, so I assume I was supposed to.

As far as tying this and Billie’s story into the IVV world: brilliantly done.

4 stars.

🎧 Audio:
This has an all-star cast, and is a full-cast narration. Everyone sounds absolutely amazing! 🦩

Mark Me

this one was a good story. enjoyed every bit of it. it had a bit of plot twists, dude like there was 2 people in this story that had me dropping my jaw, I was like no freaking way 😳 wow I can't believe they did that, and not only that the big secret she ends up finding out about her parents was crazy. but you guys have to read/listen to this book it was really good. love it 5 stars baby.

Personally found it mediocre

The writing wasn’t for me at all. Repetitive phrases, some logic issues that didn’t make sense, the story lacked depth for me. The female narrator’s inflection was more “reading from a book” and less acting. Just the way some of the conversations were read were not how they would actually sound in a real conversation between two or more people. I think overall this author isn’t for me.

Slow burn

This book was just okay for me. It’s a little slow and I don’t really feel the chemistry much but all in all it was okay. Both narrators did an excellent job at narrating
