Quick and entertaining

Ariella's Keeper is the first audiobook that I've listened to. I was pleasantly surprised to find that I enjoyed it. I listened to the story as I did yard work and went about my day. I found Ariella and Sebastian's story to be a unique and interesting tale. Sebastian's father, Medical Supreme Walter groomed Ariella for him, though she didn't know that. All she wanted was to be free of him. And Sebastian wanted Medical Supreme Walter to stop meddling in his life. When Medical Supreme Walter tells Sebastian that he is to wed Ariella, a woman he's never even met, he is against it, but uses it as a way to stop any future meddling. Little does he know that his new wife will please him.

I liked Ariella's keeper. Sebastian and Ariella were a good pairing and I enjoyed listening to their story. I was also glad to see Medical Supreme Walter taken down a notch. All in all, a quick story but an enjoyable one.

Awesome new series.

This is book 1 in the new series, Divinity Healers and is a stand alone book with a wonderful HEA. I recommend this new book to all paranormal readers. The narrator does a good job of bring each character to life. I am looking forward to the next book in the series. I had to listen to it in 1 setting, did not want to stop, had to know how it ended… :). Happy listening.

Sizzling HOT!!!!

This audiobook is smokin. It also has tragedy & a truly devious act. It really was a sad BUT great story with a wonderful HEA.
This is Ariella & Sebastian's story with his despicable dad, Walter, being a key component.

***SPOILERS***
I'm gonna keep this short because you need to listen for yourself.

Ariella is a young woman who looses not only her family but ultimately her home planet and then her freedom.

Walter, the most despicable villain, kept Ariella prisoner but in a more devious way. An illness that he created. He happily gets what's coming to him in the end.

Sebastian, Walter's son, dislikes his dad as much as Ariella but unbeknownst to him, when he is ordered home, it's for his own arranged marriage to Ariella. They actually started to care for one another & when Sebastian learned of what his father had done......let's just say he was mad.

Now, if you want to know more......BUY NOW WITH ONE CLICK. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DO!

Ariella and Sebastjan

The Divinity Healer series features a world with different dimensions that can be crossed through portals. Ariella’s father sent her to the medical plane to be cured of a life-long disease. When forced by tragedy to stay in this dimension, she becomes ward, actually prisoner, of the Medical Supreme. He plans to marry her to his son. This despicable man has a plan that will not only see them married, but ensure they stay in his home. At least he thinks he does. Can Sebastjan unravel his father’s scheme so that he and Ariella can leave the control of the Medical Supreme? This story is a bit different than other stories I have read or listened to by this author. The characters are interesting. I liked Ariella. She is a sweet girl who is being mistreated. Sebastjan is a smart, strong hero. His father, the villain, is a conceited toad. The story has a mystery that revolves around Ariella, a feuding father and son, and a steamy romance. An interesting, enjoyable beginning to the series. Rebecca Cook’s narration was quite good.

Recommended Series.

I was delighted to find this story mingled with a previous Divinity series that l had really enjoyed. It was easy to empathize with Ariella, what an impossible situation she was in. Looking forward to see what is in store in book 2. Nicely narrated.

Great

This was so good. I enjoyed the story it was exciting and full of adventure. The characters were interesting and fun. The narration was good.

Ariella and Sebastjan

Ariella was a prisoner trying to find a way out from a tyrant of a captor. She believes she may have to give her virginity to him (ugh, she’s not please). But it turns out he intends for her to marry his son, Sebastjan. They both get married with out much (or any in her case) notice. But slowly they find things they like about each other, plus the of the charts sexual chemistry.

The medical supreme is a horrible man, seriously awful self centered man. You gotta love a truly evil villain to hate while reading.

Great first in series!

Another great series starter from Michelle M. Pillow. A trapped young women, an unexpected hero and a devious, highly controlling father make this book both interesting and intriguing. The story moves along quite nicely and includes the spice that most readers/listeners enjoy. I thought the narrator did an excellent job presenting the story as well. All around, it was an enjoyable book.

Nice short story

Tampering leads to interesting scenes of two newlyweds. Family interference adds to the dynamics. The characters are likable. The narrator did a fine job! I received a free copy of the audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Ariella and Sebastjan's Story

Ariella’s father sent her to the unscrupulous Medical Supreme Walter for treatment and she must remain there because he will make sure of it. He injects her to cause a severe illness that will force her to remain under his continual care or he will withhold the medication she now needs. When he is ready to set his plan in motion, he uses the threat of removing the funding for his son Dr. Sebastjan Walter’s project at the research facility, where Sebastjan is the Director, unless he comes home immediately. This will effectively force Sebastjan to obey… but not for long. Sebastjan is informed by his father that he must marry Ariella, a stranger to him, as soon as they finish dinner if he expects his funding to continue. With no other choice, he agrees to comply, but stipulates his father must stay out of his life going forward. Will he blame Ariella for this forced marriage? Will they find a cure for Ariella’s illness? Can Sebastjan’s father’s hidden plan be stopped?

The narrator for the audiobook version is Rebecca Cook. She does an excellent job with the voices to personalize the story and make it easy for the listener to get an accurate impression of what each character is like, bringing them to life for the listener. It helps to set the mood, familiarize us with the characters, and is a pleasant way to “read” and enjoy the book.
