AWW

This is so cute book i love this one my second fave in the series.

Bad narration slays a mediocre story

I LOVE this series, but this novella was a disappointment. It could easily have been expanded into a full book. Nix and Noah deserved more! But the narration... If this same woman narrates the next book, I will definitely NOT buy it. H. O. R. R. I. B. L. E.

Beautiful story

This book was short and to the point. The fact that this book was about two male lovers was very interesting and made me love their story even more.

Again, great story but.....

Again, great story but.....the narrator really needed to listen to a previous book when taking over. She’s changed the females characters by changing their tones and blue and Kalen?! Omg I’m so very annoyed as in all previous books blue had a somewhat relaxed British accent and Kalen , BEING AMERICAN, sounded American. When the new narrator took over she made blue have an Irish accent (possibly as they noted again he was found in Ireland?) and Kalen first a British accent, then right in the new book a freaking Irish accent to match blues! I know it’s nitpicky but it seriously ruined their fun parts. Audible seriously needs to have anyone taking over a series from another narrator actually LISTEN to the previous person as this really ruined the last couple books for me. From this point any further books I’ll most likely just read myself so I don’t have to eyeroll whenever my faves speak!

Way too short

I wish there the author would have expanded more on their love story. so much teasing from the previous books that this story didn't live up to expectations. love Noah and Phoenix!

Love of Love

I adore the way the author doesn't limit love and where that love comes from. This series is enjoyable, hot, sexy and a must read and read again! This Pack is well worth every word; narrated perfectly!

Exactly what I was waiting for!

If you could sum up Phoenix Reborn in three words, what would they be?

Passionate, heartbreaking, perfect.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Phoenix Reborn?

Nix and Noah at Nix's special place, both times.

Have you listened to any of Marguerite Gavin’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I've listened to this entire series and though it's strange having a female narrate a majorly male cast series, she does a really good job of making sure each and every character has their own voice and tone. That is why I marked this one down just a smidge for performance. I was hoping Tyler would grab a male narrator for this story specifically since it's Nix and Noah's story.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Both. I absolutely love this series, and I wanted Nix and Noah's story from the first glance they shared several books back. The pain that Noah felt by being rejected by his mate was evident in the story when I read it, but Gavin really brought it home with her performance of the battle and what Noah had to do with the fire. I could feel his pain and I did shed a tear.

Any additional comments?

As I wrote above, I have followed this series from the start and I think each installment just gets better. I have to give Gavin props for not only carrying every character's voice from one book to the next without wavering, but having the ability to continually create new and different voices as the character base grows with each book.

This is a must listen series to anyone that likes shifter series, paranormal romance, strong female characters that can keep up with their male counterparts and something fresh and new with each new book in the series. I am partial to gay romance, so this would be my favorite in the series. That being said, if you don't normally read MM storylines, I think you'll be okay with this one as it's done tastefully and it fits in the series well.

Too short.

I liked the book primarily, but compared to the other books it is very short and just written to finish up and include all the characters. The story of the 2 lovers was good, but short and rushed and the other characters were no more than back drop in this story.

2 guys, but female narrator?

I wished they used a male narrator for this book especially since it was about two men, Nix and Noah. The book was cute overall, but I can't used to the new narrator.

to short

this was a great book but I can't wait for the continuation of the series.
