Overview

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Larissa Ione returns with a new story in her Demonica series...

Sold into slavery mere hours after his birth to werewolf parents, Tracker spent decades in service to cruel underworlders. Then the fallen angel Harvester transferred his ownership to a human woman who gave him as much freedom as the unbreakable bond would allow. Still, thanks to his traumatic past, he’s afraid to trust, let alone feel love. But when an acquaintance shows up at his door, injured and in need of help, he finds himself longing for a connection. For someone to touch. For someone to care.

Stacey Orr has had it bad for Tracker since the day her best friend, Jillian, was forced to hold his unbreakable slave bond. At first, the fact that he’s a werewolf seemed weird to Stacey, but hey, her best friend was married to one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, so weird is definitely a matter of perspective. Stacey knows the depths of Tracker’s trauma, and she longs to help him even as he helps her, but breaking through his walls isn’t easy.

And it only gets harder when the only blood family he has, the pack that gave him away, lays claim to him...and everything he loves.

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new listeners, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

My Brilliance Audio Review:

Bond of Destiny
Larissa Ione

 

It was fun reconnecting with and meeting new characters in Larrissa’s Demonica series in her contribution to 1001 Dark Nights series of Novellas. The plot and character development is excellent and made it feel like a complete full length book instead of a 125 page Novella. There was the expected HEA but getting there was exciting and dangerous dealing with not only scary werewolfs but a few demons, fallen angels and other nightmarish creatures along the way.

The Narration by Paul Boehmer was very good and his deep voiced depictions of Tracker and the other scary weres is fabulous.

 For those living under a rock who don’t know about 1001 Dark Nights, its basically a never-ending series of romance novellas designed to introduce readers to new authors they may not have read before based on the Arabian Nights tales.

 

Lost in a storm Stacy Orr a DART (Demonic Activity Response Team) agent is lucky enough to be saved by a certain sexy werewolf she’s always had the hots for. Unlucky for them just as things are heating up in the right direction some scary weres show up looking for him.

Sold into slavery by his Werewolf Pack leader parents right after he was born, Tracker has known nothing but cruelty and torture until his slave bond was given to his present human Mistress Jillian who has shown him kindness and respect. Then during a snowstorm, he not only saves Jillian’s sexy best friend Stacy who he’s lusted after for a long time but while she’s recovering, he’s summoned by his were pack.  He knows this can’t be good and his first responsibility is keeping Stacy safe.
