Publisher's summary

This paranormal shifter romance series is set in a dystopian future where fertile women are so rare that they are now bought and sold like commodities. Each book in the Sold series follows the fortunes of a curvy heroine who has been sold to a pair of hunky shifters with some very interesting (and arousing!) results). Each book features a different type of Wereshifter and can be listened to standalone and in any order!

Sold to the Dragons

Curvy Kira Southerly has resigned herself to the fate of being sold to dragon shifters Blake and Steven. She is initially scared but she finds herself enjoying it much more than she expected, especially when she finds the dragons will have to share her in more ways than one.

Sold to the Bears

Now it is the turn of curvy Lila to be sold to bear shifters Adrian and Grant. Long steamy nights of passion and ménage-filled ecstasy are guaranteed for Lila however she has something else up her sleeve and the bears are in for a big surprise.

Sold to the Alphas

Curvy Rowan cannot bear to watch her sister being given away, so she switches the documents and allows herself to be sold to hunky Alpha wolves Chase and Grayson. Only problem is, Rowan is one of the many infertile women left on the planet. How will the Alphas react when they find they have been sold a dud?

I love shifter stories

I enjoyed the world of sold. The narration was perfect also. I just wish there was more character development. Sometimes it was hard to tell some apart.

Enjoyable

Any additional comments?

Overall an entertaining, engaging and enjoyable set of stories. They are paranormal so don't expect believable. There is a slight explanation to the situation the world and characters find themselves in now. Is it believable? No, but it's a paranormal so they don't have to make complete sense. Just sit back, let go of reality and enjoy. These are basically a little story to go with your hot & heavy steamy ménage love triangles. If you don't like ménage in your books than skip this one.

This book is listed as Romance on Audible. I would classify it more as Erotica.

These are all stories where the hot & steamy comes first, the romance comes second but each has a HEA. At least for some of the participants. You can't help but feel bad for the ones who don't get a life partner out of the deal. Especially Steven the Dragon. He deserves a HEA.

These are not complex stories and each can be listened to as a standalone book.There are no cliffhangers. While they are entertaining there is not anything really new or unexpected. All of the stories follow the same basic setup/plot. Only the characters and species of shifter changes. Even though they are all set in the same world a little more difference in each couples set of circumstances would have made each story more interesting.

I did get annoyed with the constant repeating of lines. Saying something in one line to say it again in the next sentence with only a slight change. Or ending one sentence and starting the next sentence saying the exact same thing. It got annoying fast. This happens in each of the stories but it was really noticeable in Sold to the Alpha's.

Meghan Kelly did a really good job with the narration as usual. She has a very distinct voice. It's a voice that some people really like, others really dislike. In this story her voice seemed a little softer and higher pitched at times than in others I have listened to in the past. Still she has a pleasant voice that's easy on the ears. Clearly spoken with a nice pace. Some really good character voices. Of coarse her female voices are great. Some of her male voices are really good and others need a bit of work. She does bring the characters and story to life through her narration. Very enjoyable

Interesting world but repetative stories

The overall tone of the narration was good and so were the female character voices, but the male character voices came across as a bit weak and weren’t a good match for the strong lead male characters.

The world that the books are set in is interesting, shifters came into being on Earth at a time when the environment went out of control causing most humans to die. Something has resulted in most women being infertile so those who are fertile are highly sought after and this has resulted in them becoming a commodity sold to the highest bidder.

Each book follows on woman who has been sold to have children with her purchaser/s and follows the development of the resulting relationship/s.

Each story individually would probably get a 4 star from me, they’re interesting, but they’re repetitive individually, together... In one the same phrase was repeated 3 times in a 30 second section, while this is the worst instance I noticed, it was not uncommon to start a sentence with the same phrase that finished the previous sentence. I haven’t seen the print version so I’m not sure if this is a writing/editing issue or a narration/production issue but it is very annoying.

Speaking of production issues, this definitely needed work, all the “chapter one” etc. announcement are clipped.

Back to the stories, they came across as cookie cutter stories, where one outline was created and the stories just had individuals, species and locations changed, a few unique scenes and with slightly different endings added to make sure they’re not too similar.

Honestly, I got a bit bored and I was glad when I got to the end, three was one too many.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

This series is so fantastic that l am reviewing before my morning coffee, unbelievable l know right!! l love how the author arranged her writing so that it flowed as a story so smoothly which l know you will appreciate if you have listened to a lot of audiobooks, they are not all great are they! And this narrator is one of my favourites, her manner allows you to be immersed in the story with all characters having their own voice. Then the storys themselves were a delight, l have listened for 3 days straight .

HOT 🔥🔥🔥dystopian paranormal romance

I really enjoyed this trilogy on audio. I had read them before and it was nice to listen to them. My favorite one is sold to the bears but they each were enjoyable. All have a similar premise. All the girls have suffered some sort of abuse and impoverishment and go through the process of an auction for their fertility in a world short on fertile women. This series is fun, sexy, and a bit kinky;). So come immerse yourself in a wonderful narration by Meghan Kelly in a world ruled by alpha shifters.

Three books of hot shifters!

I voluntarily chose to receive this Audible book and write this unbiased review. I really enjoyed this book. Each of the three stories start out with the same basic premise but then we go into adventures that include protecting others, finding mates and having children, sacrificing one's self, developing new families, fighting rivalries, hot passionate love, and quite a bit more. I found it hard to stop listening to this book. Meghan Kelly does an outstanding job of storytelling. She creates distinctive voices for the characters. Her voice portrays the emotions and actions in this book. I recommend this book.

Sex was the only plot these books have.

Would you try another book from Amira Rain and/or Meghan Kelly?

On the fence. If it had an actual plot than possibly.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Something a little more in depth.

What aspect of Meghan Kelly’s performance would you have changed?

Her narration was okay. It wasn't bad, but didn't really stand out either. There is a difference between a narrator that reads a story and one that tells the story with their voice acting. Meghan Kelly reads the story. Her cadence is monotone and at times quick, like she is just reading one sentence to the next. If the listener was able to hear emotion and reaction it would improve the experience.

What would have made this romance irresistible?

Irresistible? I don't think I would use that term. What would have "improved" this romance would be if it actually had romance in it. A a romance reader I exapect to be drawn to the characters, to see their personalities in a way that will allow me to love or hate them. I want to get to know them, see how they view their world, how they relate to other characters, and ultimately watch them fall in love or be loved. Romance is intimacy. Sex without that is just sex. And this book is the latter.

Any additional comments?

I am an avid reader of all genres, but I love paranormal romance, specifically shifter romances. however these stories feel like they are erotica more than romance. Erotica is mainly sex heavy, with plot lines used more as a way to move the story from one sex scene to the next. They often have little in way of character building or story development. That is what this collection is. Had it been labeled as erotica I may have given it 5 stars, because it alters the expectation and experience. But since it was labeled as a romance, I can say in that capacity it falls short.
