I loved the dynamics of this pair!

As in Book One this is Frida and Gunnar’s account of the story and how it evolves from their perspective.
Once shunned and misunderstood by what she sees, Frida has resigned herself to a lonely existence amongst her people.
Finding herself attracted to and looking after one of the shipwrecked men, life on the island takes a turn for the better.
Finding himself living with a beautiful woman while he heals and being equally attracted to Frida, Gunnar makes the most of the situation.
I found this story captivating and loved the build up of their relationship along with the problems that arose.
Many questions still to be answered as these stories progress.
Looking forward to the journey.
I have just finished listening to the audiobook and always enjoy listening to Gareth J Davies.
His voice and the addition of the background noise in places is always a delight.

Caught By The Love Bug

Six vikings are found on the shore of an island inhabited by women after their boat sinks. They are injured and in need of care. The injured men are separated and taken to individual huts to be tended. This story is about Frida and Gunnar. Two people who are loners. Frida because of her gift of sight and Gunnar because his caring for horses kept his life fulfilled. While he is healing under Frida’s care, he discovers maybe it’s time for something more in his life. A passionate love develops between them but will Frida’s secret tear them apart. Will Frida get the child she craves even if she can’t have the man she wants. Can Frida and Gunnar find what they need in their lives? Book two was wonderful and the narrator was great. I can’t wait to see who catches the love bug next. Be prepared for some steamy passion. These books are all stand alone stories but I would reading them all.

the sound effects were wonderful

Great storyline great narration. I would recommend this story. I enjoyed listening to this while on a road trip

Craved By The Viking

I enjoyed the interaction with everyone and how Freya was finally being recognized without judgement and was coming out of her comfort zone. The men were healing and trust was beginning. Everyone is being showcased on their interactions and abilities to be part of a group. Trust is beginning amongst them.

The storyline and writing is excellent and I found myself listening and thinking of the paths it could lead the listener to. I enjoyed the progress they are making with the men healing, hoping to make it back to their home and the relationships with the women, many of whom are family on the island but with relationships being formed, are hoping to leave if the men are able and allowed to. This is an interesting series of this genre that could be fleshed out for some time with these two talented authors co-writing it.

The narrator reading the story is superb! He has a very pleasant, soothing tone and voice and is skilled in speaking as different characters.

I was offered this Audible book for my honest opinion and review. I would highly recommend it to those who enjoy an outstanding Gothic series.

Craved by the Viking: A Dark Viking Romance (Bound and Betrothed Book 2

Six Vikings are shipwrecked and recovering after rescued by an island with only women
This delicious steamy story is about Frida and Gunnar I absolutely loved them the scenes are painted vividly making you feel like you're there It's an emotional romantic book that captured and held me from start to finish this listen/ read Felicity, Anna created is a fantastic tale I'm looking forward to the next one.
I recived a free copy of is audiobook at my request I'm voluntarily leaving a unbiased review.

Garth did such a fabulous job narrating this story he brought it to life.

Great shortish Viking romance

So very different from book 1, but just as delicious! Both main characters had insecurities that were endearing but hampered the growth of their relationship. I enjoyed watching them overcome those challenges and look forward to the next book in the series.

Narration was perfect! Love the growly voice for the MMC.

Frida and Gunnar

The second story in the Bound and Betrothed, Frida and Gunnar's story. It is well written with a very good storyline and great characters. There is drama, danger, suspense, twists, turns, a misunderstanding and romance. Eldberg and Hedda are also in this story. I enjoyed listening to Gareth J Davies narrate this story. I would like to listen to the next story.

Steamy, mysterious and creative Viking tale!

This is the second in the lusty, mysterious and romantic series about shipwrecked Vikings and the women who, sometimes reluctantly, need them to perpetuate their island society. This is also the second time for me to read the story; this time on Audible. The narration with the perfect voice and added sound effects made the story even better, if that is possible. This story grabbed me from the start. At first the men are seen as a source of sperm for the all-female island but relationships start to develop. All the characters have differences. I love that the stories of the 6 couples are concurrent so you can see the events and relationships from different perspectives. In Craved by the Viking, Frida has second sight and is often shunned or accused of witchcraft. She is reluctant to share her powers and visions with others for fear of being ostracized. She sees Viking Gunnar as her only chance at having a child. The book has great sexual tension and the fact that Frida is a virgin adds more steam to the story. I loved Gunnar who is not a warrior, but a gentle and patient man used to taming horses and uses his skills to try to discover Frida's secrets. The book has flashes of darker, frightening events in the future and hints at deeper things to come so I will definitely continue with the series.

Totally Sigh-worthy!

I loved Frida and her innocent awakening! She understood what she had to do but didn't know if she could pull it off and her journey was simply beautiful.
I also loved Gunnar's voyage of love. Together they lit up the skies!
I have just finished listening to the audiobook version and the narration was an absolute treat!
