Shaped by Destiny

Beasts of Extinction, Book 1

De: Sara Hinds

Narrado por: Stephanie Rose, Bryant Walker, Ace Bentley

"You're nothing. Just a nobody that wasn't wanted."

Those words have played in my head since I was five years old.

Every night, when I close my eyes, I relive that moment. The heat, the smoke, and the cruel smile on her face. For the longest time, I believed them. All I wanted was to find a place to belong, to be needed. But who could ever need me, a prey shifter? How can a rabbit be useful, especially when I lack elemental magic?

The guys saved me that night and every day since. They refused to let me feel useless, instead teaching me to be strong and use what I thought was a weakness to my advantage. With Lyle, Blair, Pike, and the twins, Sol and Storm, I found what I never thought was possible. People who wanted me, people who value me. They may be Alpha predators, but they make me feel like I belong.

I found a pack.

But nothing is forever, and one day, I'll have to watch them leave to pick mates to spend their lives with. The thought haunts me, but I can't let it rule my life.

I don't want to be alone, not again...

Again?

Sometimes, my thoughts are not my own. I feel like someone else lives inside of me, full of pain. While I don't know the reason for the pain, I can feel it as if it is my own. Every day, the feeling is stronger, and with it comes chaos. My life has become a delicate balance, and something inside of me can't wait for it to snap.

Fear keeps me holding onto what I know. Whatever is inside of me is waiting to get out, but it's dark and dangerous, and I refuse to let those around me be hurt by it.

I'm just not sure I can hold it in much longer.

Shaped by Destiny is book one in the Beasts of Extinction Series and ends on a cliffhanger. This is a full-length shifter romance that has some darker elements. For mature listeners.

An epic start to an amazing story

This story is one of my absolute favorite reads last year and having it brought to audio was amazing.

I loved the performances and the voice actors that were used.

I cant wait for the next one and to carry on with Renas story.

Favorite Characters

This book is one of my favorites and to hear it be brought to life is amazing.
I love all of the voices, I think Garrett’s voice was a little different than I was expecting but it’ll be cool to hear his parents talk and everything too.
I’m excited for the next books!

I love this whole world

5/5⭐️
2/5🌶️

I’m sorry what just happened? I definitely was not paying attention to how far into the book I was and then it ended! I absolutely loved this story. The shifters and elemental magic is so cool! I cannot wait to see what else Garrett has to say for himself that is for sure!

Sooooo good!!!!

Love this twist on shifters!!!! That cliffy though, I have questions that need answers!!! LOL

Love the plot, love the characters, love their dynamic, and even though I don’t normally go for slow burns…this one is amazing and I can’t wait for book 2!

Great story

The story was great. The characters were great. The female narrator was great. Did not like the male narrators one of them did this gasping thing every time they would take a breath or talk, and there was really no clear tone between the different characters. will be finishing the series by reading it probably not on audio though. I really did like the book itself though. and just because I didn’t like the male narrators doesn’t mean somebody else wouldn’t love them so I would still give it a listen.

Loved it!

I’m going to be honest. I don’t think I would have picked this book up anytime soon due to the cover. I don’t like snakes and I don’t like reading about them. But because this book was an option choice on the bingo card game and I owned it already, I decided to give it a try. To make it a better experience for me, I decided to purchase the audiobook incase there was snakes, it would be a smoother process. Come to find out. There’s no snakes. At least not in this book. I’m not sure if the rest of the series will have them. I was all worried for nothing. I was pleasantly surprised there wasn’t any snakes. Which made me so happy. I was on edge throughout the whole story, waiting for the snakes or mention of snakes to pop up. Anyways, I really loved this story. It had me entertained from start to finish. I loved the reverse harem, but I think book two will have why choose. Which I’m here for. Because I love all of the guys. I also loved the world building and can’t wait to dive into it more on the next book. It does leave us in a cliffhanger. Which I’m so eager to start the next book. I definitely recommend this story. Stephanie Rose, Bryant Walker, and Ace Bentley did an outstanding job.
