The time has come for Ana to conquer her doubts about her heritage and discover her inner dragon. Her lessons begin with summoning fire on the shore at Lendman Park, placing a buffer between her fledgling powers and town. Her flames prove eager to please, leaping to her fingertips, but a sudden burst of magic topples her and RÃan into the lake. A lake one of the locals swears is inhabited by a mermaid.
Too bad the mermaid lore isn't the only story making the rounds in Brentwood. Rumor has it that Mercer Bates has challenged Carmichael Sartori for control of the Sartori pack. Ana doesn't want to care whether Carmichael lives or dies, but our hearts don't always listen to our heads. And that proves doubly true when someone Ana considers a new friend reveals her true loyalties in an explosive betrayal that shakes the foundation of the Walsh clan.
Narrated by Leanne Woodward, the Groom & Doom is a novella series featuring a latent shifter who was living among wolves until she learned she was stolen from her family. This is a series that should be listened to in the order of its release. Romance, suspense, magic, and found family await you.
Ana has begun her training and is growing more comfortable with the Walsh clan. Her bond with Rian is strengthening, as is her relationship with others. Mercer Bates has challenged Carmichael Sartori for control of the Sartori pack, and even though she is angry at Carmichael for what he did to her and her mother, she still struggles as she worries about him dying. With the unrest, Brentwood is still on lockdown, and Rian and his clan are spread thin keeping everyone safe.
A lesson with her flames has Ana and Rian at the bottom of the lake. When tensions get hot, Rian takes her to a special place. We see their connection grow stronger, and their chemistry is electric. I love how patient he is with her, and seeing Ana flourish was wonderful.
The audiobooks are delightful and capture the tone and emotions of the characters. At just under five hours, these are perfect for road trips. I’m excited for the next audiobook, The Pixie in the Pickle Jar.

About Hailey Edwards
Hailey Edwards writes about questionable applications of otherwise perfectly good magic, the transformative power of love, the family you choose for yourself, and blowing stuff up. Not necessarily all at once. That could get messy. She lives in Alabama with her husband, their daughter, and a herd of dachshunds.
