About this listen

The Little Mermaid meets Loki in this dark, twisted retelling that’s anything but a Fairy Tale. In this world, foes look like friends, the heroes are deliciously wicked, and you’ll never see the end coming.

Ten years ago, I "died", and it was the best thing that ever happened to me.

I should have known it wouldn't last.

Once my family thought I was dead I was finally free to live. Until the day my brother walks into my tiny book shop.

No one leaves the Grayling pack and gets away with it. They drag me back, but not for the reason I believe.

My mother has made an enemy of a powerful witch and I am to take the punishment meant for her. Death would have been kinder.

This curse? What I am now? It's so much worse than I could have imagined. She didn't just cut me off from my wolf, or even simply kill me. She made me a golden retriever and sent me to a shelter. I'm ready to die in truth now, I'm hoping for it even. And then my mate walks in...but how am I supposed to convince him I'm the strong partner he needs to help him stop the end of the world when I can’t stop wagging my freaking tail?

This Book IS Golden!!!!

Golden by Shannon Mayer is the 1st in a new world/series for This incredible author. I'm a big fan of Shannon Mayer's writing and this book was just another example of her amazing talent!

I admit that I was really curious as to how I'd like this odd telling. I mean a Werewolf turning into a Golden Retriever??!! That's a totally new direction if anything I'd read before....but, never fear! Shannon Mayer is here, and she will make those quirks work out brilliantly!!!! In no time I was totally engrossed and couldn't wait to see what happened next! This puppy (no offense to our Golden) had a lot of twists and turns, who's good, who's bad,what next?!! It's just a fantastic read and Any Landon was magnificent as the narrator. There were a lot of characters, very unusual characters that she had to differentiate voices, etc. for and she did such a great job! Loved everything about this book!! 22 Golden Stars! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

👏 Bravo

This new series is definitely going to be on my number one list. It kept me captivated from the start. I love Cin and her new sidekick. Amy Landon does a fantastic job bringing the characters alive. I highly recommend this audible book.

Right from the start, it grabbed me.

It’s not often that a story grabs me from the start. This one did it with the very first sentence! What a wild ride, with characters I loved, and characters I truly despised. It ended leaving me wanting MORE.

Hope it’s a series

I still love Shannon Maude’s humor, but I kept getting distracted from the audiobook. I think it’s because it’s the first of an intended series - and, you know, all the set up details. I miss the interplay of characters (in dialogue) that I bet is coming in the next books. It’s definitely worth a read, but would be best as the kick off to a series. I enjoyed the narrator, and that’s really critical for me!

Great fun until the end

Well that was rude. The mother of all cliffhangers! How long until the sequel comes out?
