About this ebook

WHEN NIGHT FALLS

After her husband's tragic death, Leigh Kelly arrives on Whidbey Island determined to start over. Yet the tiny town of Chimney Rock is not as peaceful as it seems. Women have been disappearing, and Leigh can't shake the feeling that she's being watched . . . especially at night. Soon, she's experiencing visions she can't explain and fighting her attraction to a handsome stranger who seems to know her most intimate desires.

PASSION TRANSFORMS THEM

As the leader of the Team, a pack of werehounds forced to hide their very existence, former special ops soldier Niles Latimer is desperate to prove a man's heart beats beneath his predator's body. And Leigh-the mysterious beauty possessing powers she doesn't yet understand-may be the one woman who can help him. But Niles isn't the only one who recognizes Leigh's true identity. Something evil is waiting in the woods-and the hunt has begun . . .

Ratings and reviews

This is a review of the audio version of "Darkness Bound: Chimney Rock" by Stella Cameron. Stella Cameron’s new series "Chimney Rock" is off to a fantastic start with the first book, "Darkness Bound". The setting is Washington State, Whidbey Island’s Chimney Rock. The small town is the center of paranormal activity. Werehounds, werewolves, the fae and vampires all struggle for the control of the island. The werewolves care little for humans and are willing to use them and destroy them. The werehounds are smaller than werewolves but are very strong. All of the werehounds are male and their numbers cannot increase unless they can locate viable females. Leigh Kelly moved to Chimney Rock to begin a new life. She found herself drawn to Niles, not knowing he was a werehound. Unknown to Leigh, she has powers that make her invaluable to the werewolves, vampires, fae and werehounds. The werewolves, fae and vampires knew she was a tool they could use to destroy the werehounds. There are a lot of characters in "Darkness Bound" but I managed to keep up with them. Cameron provided plenty of twists and turns to keep me eagerly turning pages to see what would happen next. The lead characters in this book are Niles and Leigh. Leigh is a strong woman with a sense of who she is, yet she is also aware of her weaknesses and willing to reach out to Niles when she needs him. Niles is handsome, sexy, strong and a true leader and yet he is vulnerable. Leigh is his weakness. The author left one particular thread not answered to my satisfaction. I guess she is going to complete the thread in the next book. This is an excellent read and Suehyla El-Attar’s voice is perfect. I can hardly wait for the next book in this series.
