Publisher's summary

Evil Fae are trying to take over the world. Okay, right - that’s actually old news.

Unfortunately, it’s even worse than that now. Because now, they intend to use my son - and other human children with magical parents - to do their dirty work for them.

The Fae realm is dying, its magic growing ever more unbalanced. And I guess by comparison, Earth looks like a nice, juicy alternative. They even have a foothold here, ever since the human world became spoils in the last war between the Fae and the demons - a war the demons lost.

All I wanted was to get my son back. But now, the stakes are bigger than just the two of us. If my friends and I can’t stop the Fae, humanity will become nothing more than a race of helpless slaves, bound to a powerful race by fear and magic.

I’m not alone in this fight. But every friend, every ally, every fragile new emotional connection is another weapon the Fae can use against me.

If the price of finding Jace is losing everything else I care about, will I be able to live with myself afterward?

Adrenaline-pumping cliffhanger!

Listener beware: This story ends on a major cliffhanger. You'll want to have part 4 ready so you can dive into it right away.

This continues the story of Vonnie trying to reunite with her son while building a slow-burn romance with Leonides as well as strengthening her bonds of friendship with Zorah, Rans, and even Albiguard. The action in this one is some of the best I've encountered from Steffan. The main centerpiece of the escape from the building is detailed and well done.

For fans of this series and universe, we get a nice visit from Edward, and Vonnie continues to grow her magic. She and Leonides aren't in a place where their feelings can be expressed easily. Leonides isn't good at showing that he cares. It's not obvious that they work, and yet they do.

Gwendolyn Druyor's narrator performance is excellent as always. At this point, I've listened to so many books with her narrating Steffan's works that I've run out of superlatives. She's excellent. Full stop.

To the potential reader/listener: You don't *have* to listen to The Last Vampire series to enjoy this, but you'd get a better understanding of the world and characters if you did. If you're determined to skip that, do yourself a favor and start with the first book in this series. Because of the cliffhangers and ongoing story, this isn't the kind of series you can jump into in the middle and make it have sense.

Recommended.

Biggest Cliffhanger yet!

The third instalment in the Vampire Bound series picks up from where book two finished. Jace is still missing and Vonnie and her three Vampire friends, as well as Albirgard, are trying to come up with a plan to stop the Fae from taking over the earth. No Biggie there then!

A lot happens to Vonnie and Guthrie in this instalment, but are they getting any closer? Whilst Vonnie's magic and her control of it seems to be growing her determination to find Jace makes her make reckless decisions. I don't always agree with the choices she and Guthrie make but, in a way, I can understand where they are coming from. But Guthrie needs to decide if he's going to embrace his future or live entirely in the past. Although I am enjoying their slow-burn romance and love how they are becoming closer I want a commitment one way or the other.

As this is a non-spoiler review I can't really say any more except that this one ends on the biggest cliffhanger yet! I can't wait to find out what the outcome of this story will be.


Gwendolyn Druyor is again in excellent form as she narrates this book, she does such a wonderful job as always.

I was given this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review.
