About this listen

Never stop running. And no matter what, never let the world know who you really are.

I’ve spent my whole life hiding. Training. Preparing. Hoping that no one will discover my secrets. What I can do. Who I am. And I’ve gotten so good at it, sometimes even I forget.

Until them.

The wolf pack with a ruthless reputation and a penchant for revenge. The protective fighter. The charming Brit. The shy hacker. The silent mercenary. The cruel assassin.

They see more than anyone ever has before. And even with demons of their own, they give me sanctuary. A place to hide, to rest, and maybe even a place to belong.

Only it turns into so much more. Because when they touch me, everything around me ignites, and nothing matters but them.

But these wolves have secrets. And those secrets bring enemies. And when they find out who I really am?

It’s not their enemies I need to fear. It’s them.

Another absolutely amazing book!

Tessa Hale has become one of my favorite authors of all time. I anxiously await any new book she writes because I know I will absolutely fall in love with the characters & story.

This book was no different. I absolutely love Wren & the men she finds out to be her mates are all equally drool worthy…despite some not exactly thrilled about her arrival.

The narrators really brought this book to life yet again. They did such a good job, I didn’t want to stop listening….despite being at work lol

The cliffhanger definitely leaves me dying to see what happens next.

Such a good book by a great author! Absolutely amazing job to the narrators as well!

WHY CHOOSE this WOLF SHIFTERS series?

I'm not really a fan of series with cliffhangers, but I loved Tessa Hale's previous series about dragon shifters (Dragons of Ember Hollow), and this has the same vibe. The star-studded narration is also definitely something to howl about! Connor Crais is an automatic buy for me, so J.F. Harding, Jason Clarke. Teddy Hamilton & Shane East, along with Vanessa Moyen are the icing on this one! Really enjoyed it, and can't wait for part 2!

Fantastic Story, Excellent Narration

The way I devoured this book! I was laughing so often a coworker even commented. The characters are well thought out and the relationship building is fantastic. Narration is top notch with several of my favorites in this cast.

I'm a huge fan of all stories Tessa Hale and can't wait for the next book in this series. ❤️

A PHENOMENAL narration that transports you right into this why choose wolf shifter romance!!!!

WOW!!! What a phenomenal start to this new trilogy!! Tessa is my go to author for paranormal why choose romance as her books are quick reads that are so addicting and engaging! This is book one of The Wolves of Crescent Creek series and I completely devoured it as I’ve been looking forward to Wren’s story. It’s a steamy why choose romance filled with secrets, a mysterious FMC on the run, action & fights, sizzling tension and a slow burn with five hot, intriguing men who each have different personalities and stories. I already have my favorites of the men and cannot wait to see what is going to happen next with Wren and her fated mates after that ending!!!!! (Keep in mind this is book 1 of a trilogy so it does end in a cliffhanger.)

💜Why Choose- MFMMMM
💜Wolf Shifter Romance
💜Fated Mates
💜Heroine In Hiding

This book all begins with a heartbreaking prologue about Wren’s tragic past. Fast forward 15 years and Wren is in a super small town called Crescent Creek where she is in hiding and on the run. After work one day she goes to the Crescent Kingdom gym and while there she catches a scent of wolf. I don’t want to say much more as this is a book that you need to experience as you read and enjoy everything unfolding!!!!

🎧AUDIO REVIEW:
OUTSTANDING!!! This audio completely elevated this story and transports your right into Crescent City with a superb casting of narrators!! Not only do you get the incredible Vanessa Moyen to narrate Wren but you also get 5 male narrators for each of her 5 fated mates! This casting made this audiobook such an immersive experience and I cannot recommend it enough!!!!

I have to talk about this amazing line up of narrators in this audio as each one captured their character perfectly! First, Vanessa Moyen is phenomenal as Wren! Her enchanting tone is filled with tons of emotion, passion and even some sassiness. She will capture you right into this story! Then you have 5 different male narrators who each voice one of Wren’s fated mates. Connor Crais narrates Kingston, who is the fighter and gym owner. His deep, powerful tone brought to life this alpha of the group. Shane East’s smooth, seductive British voice hooks you right in for flirty Puck! Jason Clarke deep, gruff tone showcased Ender’s anger from the start and lack of trust. Teddy Hamilton brought out the touch her and die vibes of Brix as he narrates the mercenary of the group. I already know he is going to make you feel the deep emotions of Brix hard in the books to come! Then there is JF Harding who used the softer tone of his voice to bring out the caring yet sweet personality of Locke, who is the hacker. I personally love Locke so much!!

I also have to mention the phenomenal job that each of the male narrator did at imitating the voices of the other men in the book to help it flow smoothly from chapter to chapter!!! From all of them adding a British accent to their voice when speaking as Puck, to Shane getting rid of his accent when speaking as Wren or the others! Overall, all the thought that went into these castings made this such a magnificent audiobook that keeps you captured into the story chapter after chapter!! This is one you need to listen to on audio!!!

I absolutely DEVOURED this audio!

Did I binge listen to the audio for this book this morning?! YEP!!

I have this week off for Spring Break and I’m making it a goal to mood read to my heart’s content and if that means not listening at all, then so be it.

But along came this audiobook and I knew I’d have to listen ASAP—there’s just something so wildly addicting about Tessa Hale books! And Crescent Kingdom is no exception. ✨💜🐺🌙

Wren is on the run from a dark past when she finds herself in Crescent Creek, Colorado. In the few weeks since she has arrived she has carved out a somewhat safe existence for herself—until some locals return to town after a mission.

It’s clear to Wren that Kingston, Puck, Locke, Brix, and Ender are wolf shifters—all with their own dark pasts/histories. But it’s easier to keep everyone at a distance just in case she needs to run again.

And when dark mages suddenly attack one night no one can be sure of their motives—not with so many secrets swirling around.

I love that all of the characters have such distinct personalities (and their own narrator on the audio!) and POVs. This author excels at differentiating between the many MMCs in her why choose novels.

I was also a huge fan of how Wren was able to establish a genuine connection with each pack member. This book definitely focused on solidifying pack bonds and setting the tone on backstories! Yes, there’s some spice! But it served to enhance the growing intimacy of the connections the FMC feels for her MMCs.

As with all of her books, this one ends on a cliffhanger—and it definitely leaves you desperate for more! I can’t wait to read what happens next!

Tessa Hale did not disappoint

as always there was good character development. you understood the pack dynamic well. I love that her characters are always so real because they're broken in so many ways. They are also whole in other ways. It ends on quite the cliff hanger. I can't wait for the next book in the series!

Loved Discovering the Characters

Tessa Hale does it again. This was a wonderful introduction to Wren and her men. The twists and turns kept me guessing about what problems they faced. I couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait for the next book in this trilogy.

Why choose, wolf shifters, audio is perfection!

Crescent Kingdom is the first book in the Wolves of Crescent Creek series and I loved it so much! This author is a favorite for why choose, paranormal romances with fated mates and protective hero vibes. Tropes: wolf shifters, why choose, heroine in hiding, hidden identity, fated mates, touch her and die vibes, and I was so obsessed!

I’ve been anticipating this book since Wren first showed up in the previous series from this author and this start to the series did not disappoint! We see Wren’s backstory in the prologue and then cut to years later when she’s living in Crescent Creek, Colorado. She’s such a strong character who has gotten used to taking care of herself over the years. Wren is a hybrid (half wolf, half caster) and has kept her identity under wraps for years. Her life gets shaken up when one day she’s sparring at the gym and meets Kingston, the gym owner who she immediately recognizes as an alpha wolf shifter and has her wanting to flee! Kingston also owns a security company with the other heroes and soon Wren finds herself falling into their lives.

I am so obsessed with the start to this series and already love all of the characters so much! Each of the heroes gives different energy and feels so unique. Kingston the alpha, gym owner who calls her “Little Warrior”. Locke the tech enthusiast, glasses-wearing hacker of the group. Puck is British and owns the bar she lives above. Ender is the assassin and cat dad of the group (his rescue kitten is so precious). And Brix, the mercenary of the group! I have loved seeing each of their interactions with Wren and how they connect together as well. I’m just so excited to see how the overall story continues, cause that ending! 🤯

The audiobook is fantastic, highly recommend grabbing the audios for this author’s books because they always are amazing! This one has a full cast narrating the characters and was oh so good: Vanessa Moyen, Connor Crais, Jason Clarke, JF Harding, Teddy Hamilton, and Shane East!
