About this listen

"Frangione's performance adds a deeply passionate element to the narration as Claire and Michael fall in love. Once again, Frangione gives a fine glimpse of J.R. Ward's paranormal world."- AudioFile

First released in the anthology Dead After Dark, dive into this hot novella from #1 New York Times bestselling author J.R. Ward. Available for the first time ever as a standalone audiobook, get lost in the sinful pleasures of a vampire so obsessed with one woman, he will relinquish her blood, if only he can have her heart...

Held captive by a dark, seductive vampire with an unworldly hunger, the beautiful Claire Stroughton fears her life as a lawyer has irrevocably taken a turn for the worse. But when this deeply sensual—and highly dangerous—vampire convinces Claire that his desire for her is stronger than his lust for blood, she is compelled to give everything up to him, body and soul...in The Story of Son.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Enjoyable and a quick read!
The story line is truly a happy ever after sexy fairy tale!
It would of been good to explain where the butler came from and was he human at one time! Why his mother aged and why she treated her son badly!! Where was vampire dad!
This could of easily been a full length book!!

Quick read that had many holes

Although reminiscent of a BDB vampire this seems to be a complete stand-alone not associated with the series.
Those of us who read BDB and are familiar with Ward's vampires will find this an easy entertaining read with no need for a backstory. Others should enjoy it as well and may find it an interesting introduction to Ward's world.

Because of the nature of short stories, I find it hard to ever rate them more than 3.5 stars, but with this being an audible it gets an overall of 4.

Pretty good for a short story

I hope this story is expounded on. Would like for the Brotherhood to find him and expose him to his vampire side.

Unique Novela

The only thing I disliked was that it wasn't longer. I wanted more of these 2. I was hoping they'd run into the brotherhood. I wanted to know why the mother would allow this to happen to her son...I totally know it's a novella, but I'm greedy for another JR Ward masterpiece!

SO SWEET!

JR’s characters and story were excellent as always. I wouldn’t have bought such a short book if I hadn’t already trusted the author.

So sweet, but so short!

Please say there will be more Michael, Claire and let’s not forget about the kids in the distant near future!!! We need to know all about Michael’s past and how they could possibly be tied into the BDB series!

We need more!

Interesting characters & unusual world building. Endearing hero, Michael, transformed by heroine’s rescue. Lovemaking is intense & satisfying! Prologue brought a satisfying conclusion!

Suspenseful love paranormal story!

This author and narrator are a great team. I was not sure about this book because it does not have characters from the main series but they are well written and I grew to care about them quickly. It’s a good break for in between books. A great quick listen that I enjoyed a lot.

Loved this story

Another great story
