Aidan by Nyssa Kathryn

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Some loves are impossible to leave behind…

Cassie Webber had it all. A man who loved her, a mother and sister who were all the family she needed, and a job she adored. Until, in the blink of an eye, everything changed. Now her mother and Aidan are gone, and her sister’s in danger. Cassie’s willing to do anything to save her—including marrying her best friend and returning to a place she vowed to leave behind. She nearly succeeds in extracting Mia before everything changes yet again—and Cassie herself is the one whisked away.

Following a life-changing kidnapping ordeal, former Special Forces Operator Aidan Pratt has thrown himself into the new security business he’s embarked on with his teammates. He uses his military training and a host of enhanced skills to keep people safe, all the while trying to escape the memory of Cassie, who moved on without him during his two-year absence. But the universe has other plans, and before he knows it, Aidan is hired to rescue the very woman he’s trying to forget.

With Cassie back in his arms, the full extent of her peril becomes glaringly clear, and Aidan will burn down the world to keep her safe. After all, danger has never scared him…but losing Cassie a second time? Aidan can’t fathom anything more terrifying.

The Hero: Aiden – he was former military special forces and was held captive as part of Project Arma for over two years and given a super-soldier serum which altered his DNA and gave him supernatural abilities, like speed, strength, fast healing, super hearing and more. He along with the rest of his team, were rescued by another team from the same project. Since then, his team had all moved to a new town, Cradle Mountain, Idaho and started up a private security firm.

The heroine: Cassie – she was dating Aiden when he disappeared. During time, he was gone, she married her childhood best friend, Damien Webber. She isn’t happy with her life or the people her family spends time with. She wanted out of her house and out of that life, and she planned to get out soon. Her, her husband and her sister were part of “the organization”, a cult run by an awful man named Elijah who is always watching her and her family. She had suffered from a disease called NMH since she was young, it basically meant that if she was on her feet too long, if she was under too much stress or if she got too hot, her blood pressure would drop to a point where she would faint.

The Story: One day Aiden gets a job to protect a new client. Damien Webber personally requested him to protect Cassie. He said someone could be watching him, so he only gave a few details. He told Damien that he had to kidnap Cassie and keep her safe for a week. He said that Cassie was in real danger of being killed and it had to look like a real kidnapping and nobody else could know. Damien was very sketchy with the details, and he looked desperate and wouldn’t give any other information.

Cassie’s sister Mia lived at the compound, near Elijah and his brothers. Cassie hated her sister being near those people. Cassie was working with the police and planned to take Elijah and the organization down. Though Aiden and his crew kidnapped her before she ever had a chance to do what she had planned. I really enjoyed the entire cult story, there was a ton of action and suspense. Plus, it is so easy to see a cult leader as evil and wanting him to get what is coming to him.

This audiobook was done in dual points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Aiden Snow and Ava Lucas. This series has had a lot of great narrators, and this book is no different. Aiden Snow is one of my top favorite male narrators because he has a deep, sexy voice and always does a great job. Ava Lucas has a clear, feminine voice and always sounds so expressive and natural.
