Cassandra

Growing up, I was mesmerized by a man soaring the skies. The greatest silk aerialist in the world, Chandler Moreau.

He was once my lifeline, the dream I clung to after my parents died. I’ve always believed he was my destiny. To join him at the Dreamers Academy. To perform for him.

To soar with him.

He’s more than I ever imagined. Far more than a mentor. When I am high in the silks, turning, flying, falling, he’s my lifeline once again. Twisting my heart and my body into knots like the knots of his beloved Japanese rope bondage, Shibari.

I don’t want to live without him. With each lesson, each touch, I crave more. Only he can satisfy me. And only he can destroy me…

But I must keep him safe from the past that relentlessly follows me.

Chandler

She is my protégé, the student I’ve been waiting to take under my wing for my entire career. Someone with whom I could share my lifelong journey in my family’s circus, Cirque du Lys.

I never intended to fall in love with the student I was supposed to protect—from myself and the demons that lurk in my shadows. But sometimes fate has other plans.

Cassandra, my beautiful butterfly. I know she’s off-limits. Forbidden. Still, I want her in my life. My heart. My bed.

My grandfather's taunting words still linger.

Mieux vaut plier que rompre.

Adapt and survive.

It’s what we must do. Cassandra and I share a history that entwines us more than the silks we’ve spent our lives mastering ever could.

There are secrets from the past that must never be told. And truths that could destroy what we’ve just begun....

More to love:

In addition to the paperback, Obedience is also available in a full-cast narrated audiobook, starring Daniel Zbel and Rapunzaroo, along with a cast of additional voiceover actresses. Brought to life in the way the story is meant to be told, and it will be the best audiobook you listen to this year—possibly for a very long time. You’ll love listening to the two voices of these iconic characters.

Obedience

This audiobook was a true experience. A masterpiece if you will. It brought this book alive so completely I swear I felt like I was experiencing everything. The relationship between Cassandra and Chandler was explosive and amazing to listen too. The narrators did an amazing job narrating this book. The spicy scenes I swear to god that was something words cannot describe and all I know is I cannot wait for book 2. The relationship between Cassandra and Chandler was fast paced and I loved it. The Shibari… I have other words I could use but I want my review to post. Let me just say listen to this book it will blow your mind. I felt like I was watching a movie at times. A true experience!

Not what I was expecting

This book was great from start to finish. An age gap, teacher student romance that will keep you entertained. The story flows flawlessly and the voices of the narrators fit very well with the dialogue. I have never seen any kind of performances like the ones described here, but it makes me want to go and watch the live action. Chandler has been a master aerialist mastering his craft over the year in his family's business. Cassandra saw his perform once and got his autograph after a show which made her want to become an aerialist and to study under him was her dream. He has been waiting for a protege of her magnitude for a long time and now that she has arrived, she has not only captivated the audiences with her performances but his heart as well. Both are keeping secrets from one another which adds to the mystery of the book and keeps you trying to figure out what is happening. If you have children, I will definitely say don't listen to this in their presence. The steamy scenes are a bit too steamy for little ears. I can't wait to see what happens in the next book of the series.

Honest Review. No Spoilers

Age Gap. Student/Teacher. Shibari.

I listened to this twice before I felt I could write this review and even now, I still don't feel I have the words. I don't normally like audiobooks, but this one changed my opinion real quick.
This dynamic audiobook immediately captivated me and kept me begging for more the entire time. The combination of the authors words and the perfect narrators, this was easily 5 stars for me.
I have never read a book like this before, so it was very refreshing.
My favorite moment was learning that Shibari was incorporated. Shibari has a special place in my heart and it was beautifully written and encompassed all aspects of the art. Exceptionally well done.
Highly highly recommend this book!

Red hot, Age Gap, teacher/student, intrigue.

Cassandra is young, but her life has been hard. framed with tragedy she has worked incredibly hard despite her losses to be able to audition and train with her idle Chandler in the Silks as an arielist, but she gets a lot more than she bargains for with Chandler Morrow.
Cassandra and Chandler both have lived their own share of horrific tragedy and trauma and have a lot of baggage, but the chemistry is undeniable between them, and the narration in the book makes it even better. Can these two get out of their own way and move past all the interference from everyone else to be together, or is life planning to destroy them as well. Will the secrets be too much? It appears the circus has a lot more going on than meets the eye!
The ending of this book...oh my! I can't wait until these two finally unravel the secrets they've held from one another because it is going to be .. mmm more explosive than the ending of this book... if that's possible. well done!!

Not Just an ‘Audiobook’ - a Performance!!

My favorite audiobook story - the characters, music, and sound effects really bring it to life. Highly recommend!!!

Cirque for your auditory pleasure!

Oh my goodness! This is a unique romance with a sexy little circus theme. The beginning scene with the description of him “making her his own butterfly,” was steamy and just invites you in for more. The story is good. I found the characters to be strong and written to bring you into the story. It's not your typical romance. Now, hearing this in auditory takes it up a notch and it's hot, sexy and gives the suspense a whole new feel. I loved the touch that the narrators gave it. It is fantastic in audible and by book.

Unpredictable and captivating!

I absolutely LOVED this book, and the narration brought it to life. I honestly did not know what to expect. I went in blind and so glad I did. The heat between the two Main Characters is definitely amazing to watch develop! I am curious to see how this story unfolds into the next book!

great audio

This is my first audio book by this author. I enjoyed what the narrators brought to the story. They brought the story to life on each page by changing their tones. This is a story where a teacher-student relationship turns into something more. When fate steps in for these two characters, you never know what could happen. This is a realistic story with connectable characters that create romance like no other. A story that you don’t want to miss for sure. I really enjoyed listening to this story and I highly recommend it. I can’t wait to pick up the next audio by this author

Loved it

Obedience: Ties That Bind, Book 1 AUDIO by Liza Snow

4.5 out of 5 Stars

This was definitely a fun one. I really enjoyed the story from the start and was very pleased with the direction it took. I expected something totally different but I'm glad I was wrong because now I can't imagine it any other way. I loved how we are able to get the point of view of both, Cassandra and Chandler. I really enjoyed listening to Chandler's voice when listening to the audiobook. I also like the fact that both characters are adults. Their age difference doesn't feel weird because they are both in a time of their life when they can make the decision to be together without being creepy. I was unable to stop listening and finished it faster than any other audiobook. I was a little upset to be left in a little bit of a cliffhanger and can't wait for the next part of their story but that's maybe just me since I'm so impatient. Highly recommend!
