Would you listen to Blood Destiny again? Why?

Absolutely! The story was amazing!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Blood Destiny?

One? I'm not so sure I can pick just one. Definitely when Jocelyn meets Nathaniel for the first time in the woods. Action packed and gripping! I don't want to give too much away, but the twins being born and the way the blood curse works. It's an amazing twist and very imaginative in a secret world existing side by side with humans. The romance and how the curse intertwines into it was incredibly written along with the two sides, light versus dark. I'm a huge vampire fan, so I really appreciated the originality of it.

What about Eric Dove’s performance did you like?

I loved his narration! The inflection of his voice, the pacing of his tone. Beautifully read!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

The blood moon in the celestial skies...destiny awaits.

Any additional comments?

I loved this story and can't wait to hear the rest of the series!

Where does Wicked Designs rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Considering this is my first audiobook, I thought it was fantastic. It was just as much fun as I imagined it would be.

What other book might you compare Wicked Designs to and why?

This book is reminiscent of Kresley Cole's MacCarrick brother series. The boys of the League reminded me a lot of the MacCarrick brothers. They are chock full of rakish rogues who are well to do, but tend to get into mischief. However, they are no match for their witty and strong heroines who make them come undone.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

When five devilish rogues kidnap a woman to get back at their enemy, they get much more than they bargained for. ;)

Any additional comments?

The action starts quickly and I found myself immediately sucked in. I was really impressed with Emily's strength, courage, and wit, especially after she is kidnapped. Considering she was up against five men? She even surprised me a few times and I was proud of her for that. Enter Godric and the League of Rogues. Hunky, wealthy bachelors who are up to no good and when they are wronged they seek to mete out their own justice. Unfortunately, that put innocent Emily smack dab in the middle of their plot for revenge and it changes each one of their worlds. Emily proves to be quite the intelligent and challenging captive-- even Godric can't deny the desire he feels toward Emily. The tension between the two was palpable and I can't deny I wanted her to fall in love with Godric. Despite kidnapping her, he still made sure she wanted for nothing and was taken care of. He really was a roguish rake, but I loved him. :)

As a side note** I really loved the narrator's accent in accordance with this being set in England. It totally put me right there with Emily!
