About this listen
This fourth installment of the best-selling Running in Fear series opens with the escape of Cecilia Windstream from scientists who had kidnapped her and her family when she was only 16 years old.
Six years of living in a cell sure can be hell on a girl. After escaping, all Cecilia wanted to do was die, but unfortunately, the snake DNA that had been injected into her wouldn’t let her, and neither will her new mates.
Tug Brimstone was an alpha wolf by nature, but even he wasn’t as powerful as his alpha, Remi LeBlathe. Happy to be the new headmaster in their jointly owned BDSM nightclub, Tug wasn’t looking for anyone, but fate had another plan for him. In less than two days, he finds he has three mates, two of whom are part snake and part wolf, and now, he’s tempting fate by injecting snake DNA into his own body so he can mate with them.
Rory Sherwood is mate to Tug Brimstone, Clayton Glands, and Cecilia Windstream. How can one tiny female who has been beaten, experimented on, and is a virgin overwhelm him to the point where he forgets his own name and get him to change his DNA just so he can mate with her?
Clayton Glands, the muscle behind the National Council of Wolf Shifters, has hidden a family secret all his life, but in less than 24 hours, he has found his mates, exposed his secret, and gained a son.
In a one-week time span, three alpha males -Tug, Rory, and Clayton - must protect their female from the scientists she had escaped. Not only is her life in danger, but so is her son’s, as well as the future of every shifter around. The war against good and evil is coming to a head, and their journey is just part of the story to come.

Jordan Alvarez knew that a promise to her best friend involved staking out the local wolf pack's scenting ceremony and recording the graphic details. No one would know that four human women had sneaked proof of their rituals-or that was the plan until Aric Wolfe showed up. Aric Wolfe knew his baby sister was up to something, and he expected her best friend, Jordan, to be in on the chaos. Jordan's scent called to both the man and the animal, and he was done fighting the call of the beast.

Burying my parents was the hardest thing I had to do… or so I thought. Then I met Jensen and the unexplainable happened. Every time he gets near me, my body feels like it might burst into flames. Falling in love wasn’t in my plans... but neither was turning into a wolf or falling in love with one. I wish the family secret could've stayed buried. But when an old enemy threatens to destroy everything – I'll have to come to terms with who I am and save the one person I can't live without - Jensen.

Of course not.

All I wanted was to find answers to who I was. No one knew who had abandoned the gray-eyed baby with fiery red hair and a cry loud enough to make a man's nuts retract. I moved to Arbor Falls to find myself. Little did I know I'd be thrown into a world I didn't know existed. A world with wolves at each other's throats and enough pack politics and danger to make my head spin. Then there's the fact that I have more than one mate. Not all of them accept me because there's one gigantic problem: I'm not what they expected.

My intentions weren't just to bartend, but to gather intel on the lone wolf who owns the place. Instead, I found myself in much deeper with the wolves of Crescent Valley than I'd ever imagined. They're working with dangerous humans who know about our secret world, and it could put all shifters at risk. Making matters worse, my feelings start to grow for my new boss, who has the weight of a secret on his shoulders - a psycho who is obsessed with me but melts my heart, and a mysterious fighter who has something to prove. I've lived my life in a bubble, but that bubble is about to burst.

Enter a New Power Couple?
The more of this series I read, the more I love it! Jaycee and her hottie mates still play a large roll in this book but we also get introduced to Cecilia, Tug, Sam and Rory. Cecelia has had an absolutely awful life since she was kidnapped with most of her family at age 16. When she arrives at Pack headquarters, she has all but given up. With bad guys on her heels, Tug bundles her into his arms and Shifter magic happens.
I adored how the story developed and the fun, family and love that once again, bound the Pack together. The action is endless, the sex is smokin' hot and the love is tender. Don't miss it!
Remember these books are for mature readers only. 5 Stars Overall
Again, so many great things to be said about Michelle Jones and her narration. Individualized voices help build each character and had me falling in love with them more and more. She truly had a perfect voice for this paranormal style of writing.

Cupid's Venom
This is book four of the Running in Fear series. I enjoyed meeting Cecilia and her men but their story did not pull me in as much as the previous books did. When Cecilia escapes, she never imagined finding a mate let alone three of them. Their story is fast paced and has some twists and turns to it. I enjoyed the attraction and the connections that were made throughout this book. The plot line continues in this book and I am interested to see where it goes from here. Narrator Michelle Jones keeps the story flowing but I was not fond of some of the character voices used. I received this audiobook for free in return for my honest review.
