Crescent Kingdom

The Wolves of Crescent Creek, Book 1

De: Tessa Hale

Narrado por: Vanessa Moyen, Connor Crais, Jason Clarke, JF Harding, Shane East, Teddy Hamilton

Never stop running. And no matter what, never let the world know who you really are.

I’ve spent my whole life hiding. Training. Preparing. Hoping that no one will discover my secrets. What I can do. Who I am. And I’ve gotten so good at it, sometimes even I forget.

Until them.

The wolf pack with a ruthless reputation and a penchant for revenge. The protective fighter. The charming Brit. The shy hacker. The silent mercenary. The cruel assassin.

They see more than anyone ever has before. And even with demons of their own, they give me sanctuary. A place to hide, to rest, and maybe even a place to belong.

Only it turns into so much more. Because when they touch me, everything around me ignites, and nothing matters but them.

But these wolves have secrets. And those secrets bring enemies. And when they find out who I really am?

It’s not their enemies I need to fear. It’s them.

Always so good!

Ohh Tessa Tessa, what have you done!… let the waiting game begin. Because this book may be my favorite. Team Wolf

Completely amazing

Omg! It was amazing, the storyline is so well done and entertaining, the performance was sublime and the voices on the dot. Huge cliffhanger I can’t wait.

Must Read Shifter Romance

“I knew you’d be stunning, but you’re a work of art Wren.”

“We all have stories little warrior, we all have darkness.”

Crescent Kingdom was just what I needed after reading a few contemporary romance books and it showed me exactly why I love shifter romances!!

@literary.schadenfreudian recommended this book to me and I am so glad! Tessa Hale has me hooked on these gorgeous shifters! I haven’t fallen so hard since I read the Ruthless Boys series.

Wren has walked through fire but she’s not broken! That girl has teeth and she’s not afraid to use them! Kingston with his alpha protectiveness, Puck with his alluring accent and endless flirting, Locke with his sweet optimism and helpfulness, Ender the swoon worthy cat daddy, and last but not least Brix with his cold fury that trusts no one but his pack… can I just roll them all into one guy and keep him forever???

I am sooo excited Eclipsed Empire is coming out this fall! That cliffhanger left me screaming! I can’t wait to read more about Wren and her guys! 🥰

I love that the audiobook included separate narrators for each of the guys! It really brought the story to life and highlighted their unique accents and personalities!

Now to get myself the collectors edition because she is absolutely STUNNING!!!

Power of Love

Breathless! That is the only word I can use to describe this book! I was on edge the entire time and literally could feel the emotions Tessa put into these characters! I need book 2 now, not tomorrow or July lol Great job Tessa! I am in love with the wolves of Crescent Creek and can’t wait for the next book! ❤️🥰😍💙💜

Ugh!

I totally didn't see that ending! Another amazing book by Tessa Hale. I'll be counting the days until the next one releases.

Tessa Hale did not disappoint

as always there was good character development. you understood the pack dynamic well. I love that her characters are always so real because they're broken in so many ways. They are also whole in other ways. It ends on quite the cliff hanger. I can't wait for the next book in the series!

I absolutely DEVOURED this audio!

Did I binge listen to the audio for this book this morning?! YEP!!

I have this week off for Spring Break and I’m making it a goal to mood read to my heart’s content and if that means not listening at all, then so be it.

But along came this audiobook and I knew I’d have to listen ASAP—there’s just something so wildly addicting about Tessa Hale books! And Crescent Kingdom is no exception. ✨💜🐺🌙

Wren is on the run from a dark past when she finds herself in Crescent Creek, Colorado. In the few weeks since she has arrived she has carved out a somewhat safe existence for herself—until some locals return to town after a mission.

It’s clear to Wren that Kingston, Puck, Locke, Brix, and Ender are wolf shifters—all with their own dark pasts/histories. But it’s easier to keep everyone at a distance just in case she needs to run again.

And when dark mages suddenly attack one night no one can be sure of their motives—not with so many secrets swirling around.

I love that all of the characters have such distinct personalities (and their own narrator on the audio!) and POVs. This author excels at differentiating between the many MMCs in her why choose novels.

I was also a huge fan of how Wren was able to establish a genuine connection with each pack member. This book definitely focused on solidifying pack bonds and setting the tone on backstories! Yes, there’s some spice! But it served to enhance the growing intimacy of the connections the FMC feels for her MMCs.

As with all of her books, this one ends on a cliffhanger—and it definitely leaves you desperate for more! I can’t wait to read what happens next!

Almost perfect

Excellent story—but with all these amazing narrators, feels like they REALLY missed the mark by not going with the full cast duet narration 🥺

I love this universe!

I was so thrilled to start Wren’s story! I’ve read every book in this universe, and the story was exactly what I was hoping for. We got instalove, reluctance, complete denial! Secrets, betrayal. The bonds are everything I was looking for. I’ve never been disappointed in a Tessa Hale book, and that trend continues! Can’t wait to see what’s in store for Wren and her guys in book 2!

I want more!!!

This story was awesome! And that cliffhanger!!! OMG I need more, and I cannot wait until book 2 is released! If you are not sure if you are a supernatural or shifter lover...then this is a great place to start for you. I have come to love shifter dynamics, and this solidified it even more for me! Vanessa Moyen always has excellent narration, but the whole cast for this story was fantastic. I read the book as well as listened to the audio and when I started this story I couldn't stop, I had to plow the whole way through, and I loved it so much that I have read/listened more than once.
