His to Lead

A Dark MM Age Gap Romance (Wasteland Temptations, Book 4)

By: E.V. Olsen

Narrated by: Aiden Snow

New Day. Fragile Bonds. Lurking Danger.

I've been a lone wolf in this broken, desolate world for four years. Until one fateful night with Cal exposes our secret desires, forging an unexpected bond despite our age difference.

But he ran afterwards. And even when he returns, the lingering pain continues to haunt me.

So I keep him at arm's length.

When old friends arrive, their presence breathes new life into our home, easing the tension between Cal and I.

Until a sadistic gang invades our haven, threatening our unconventional family and forcing us into a brutal fight for survival.

I'm ready to sacrifice everything to protect the man who owns my heart, the one who gave me purpose in this shattered world.

Cal is my light amidst the darkness, and I'll do whatever it takes to keep him safe.

A steamy short MM angsty romance set in a post apocalyptic world, featuring an Over The Top protective alpha hero and an age-gap romance.

Still waiting for more lol

It’s making more sense, things are starting to be revealed and are adding up. It’s actually starting to pick up and getting more interesting!!

This brought ALL the heat! 🔥

Story - ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Spice - 🌶🌶🌶
Narration - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

His to Lead is the 4th novella in the Wasteland Temptations series and Mac's POV. Mac and Cal are living together, but Mac still blames himself for Cal running away. He's also afraid Cal will run again, so he hides his true feelings to avoid being hurt. When Mac's army buddy Rex (and his boy toy Devon) show up, tensions rise until boundaries are set (watch yes, share no). This MM dystopian series keeps getting better because we learn more about the characters and all their emotional baggage. And chapter 4...so spicy.

The solo narration from Aiden Snow was exactly as you would imagine...perfection. Nobody compares (in my book) to Mr. Snow's uber-protective alpha voice, but we also get his performance of all the characters in this story. So so good. 5/5 stars!

I’m not crying, you’re crying!

I can’t believe is the end and ugh I want more!!!! I was not prepared for how much I would come to love this series, specially Devon and Cal. Those two stole the show for me in this book! And don’t get me started on how we can see this time around —on Mac’s pov— how their relationship FINALLY progresses into such a masterpiece I’m all fluffy inside. Aiden did brilliantly bring him Mac to life in such a way that I’m obsessed now.

I love the way EV closed the chapter on a lot of important settings of this series, yet left the door open for more (yes Joker, I’m looking at you (IYKYK)), so I can only hope this is not the last time we see of these four chaotic devils

Overview:
Overall: 5/5
Storyline: 5/5
Smut: 10/5
The feels it made me feel: infinite/5

I received and ALC and this is my honest and voluntary review.

Fast and wild

I guess I didn’t read the description before purchase.While I don’t fully regret the purchase I felt as though my head was spinning the ENTIRE time from super steamy to murder sprees was wild and entertaining.

Nice Wrap Up

This is the final book in the Wasteland Series and it wraps things up nicely. We get Mac's perspective this time and we get to see how his worry and fear has been affecting his relationship with Cal. We get to see Cal and Devon bonding and learning how to do things together and we get to see Mac and Rex's relationship. This story is short and very spicy so if you do not like light plot and heavy spice, this series is not for you. Overall I give His to Lead 3.5 stars.

The narration was great and I am very happy that they really showcased the different ages in the narrators. 5 stars for the narration.
