Narrated by the talents of Jack Calihan, the story is sexy and panty melting. He brings out that over protective side of Liam and adds a layer of warmth to him even when you think there isn’t one there! His voice brings this story to life.

Liam, a Ramelian warrior, realized Melody was his mate as soon as he saw her at his commander’s house. So that he could try to get to know her naturally instead of claiming her outright, he was assigned as her bodyguard. Liam wanted Melody to submit and obey him always but she was feisty. When she didn’t obey, the punishments were pretty bad, especially when he washed her mouth out with soap and wouldn’t let her spit it out or rinse her mouth. I don’t see a human woman putting up with that unless she were really, really worn down. The warrior was also very possessive. This was a good book and kept my attention throughout.
I feel that the narrator can make or break the book. Jack Calihan is an awesome narrator. He had the right tone in his voice for the sexy, possessive warrior Liam. He also did a great job with the female voices. You always knew who was speaking.
