They want me, but there's only one I crave. Vanessa. I shouldn't have let her slip away. She answers the door wearing next to nothing. I can't tear my eyes away from her. A short silk kimono skims her thighs. The delicate robe falls open. She's teasing me. Lace panties and a push-up bra lifts her breasts like an offering. I haven't seen her in years. I've never seen her like this. I never knew that under her clothes she had the body of a goddess. She never expected to see me again. I set her free before, but I'm not waiting anymore. I've returned to claim the woman who has always belonged to me. I'll take back what was mine. Avren is a standalone, full-length science-fiction romance. There are no cliffhangers, and a happy ending is guaranteed! Members Reviews: Love the brothers Another book in the Auxem world. I love these books. All the brothers. Hope there will be more in the future with this world. I love the Terra mate books but i am very fond of the Auxem stories and also, i have to mention, the Water world books. These were my favorites out of all i have read/listen. Keep it up Lisa. Avren and Vanessa I have listened to every book in this series and loved them all but if you haven't read or listened to the books in this series there is no need to worry that the storyline might be a bit confusing. The background is filled in quite nicely and the background together with this current storyline make this a very enjoyable book. Avren is the last of the five princes of Auxem to get his own story, he's sexy, brilliant and desirable. Some time ago he met and fell in love with Vanessa Dwyer a brilliant geneticist. They had their scientific interest in genetics in common as well as a very strong sexual attraction. Avren and Vanessa never actually made love because if they did they would become bonded until death but he did let her in on a secret relating to his race. Although they loved each he never asked her to become his because he felt she wanted a career more than she wanted to be with him. The result, they both ended up nursing broken hearts but have never forgotten each other. Now they have a second chance but will they take it? Avren has now returned to ask Vanessa to help him find a way to alter the genetics of his race but will she agree? If she does do they have a chance to be together? So much has changed since they were last together. Will their research be welcomed by his whole race? The plot is very involved the fact that the men from Auxem can't use their wings without a tremendous amount of pain and Avren wants to find a cure I thought was a good twist. It's a bit like we have arms but we can't use them without pain! You would expect this to be welcomed wholeheartedly wouldn't you? All these questions are answered in this book but I can't say anymore without giving too much of the plot away. What I can say is that the writing style, chemistry and storyline are all fantastic as is the narration. This review is written voluntarily and is my own personal opinion. OMGosh!!!! I can't express how much I loved it !!! Gorgeous hunk of man with brains, brawn and an undying love and faithfulness...Avren!! Set on his course of a cure for the agony of extracting their wings Avren enlists the help of the only person who can help him...Vanessa...his one true love.

Makansi Narrator: Ivy Tara Blair Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 35 mins Language: English Release date: 12-02-15 Publisher: Blank Slate Communications Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 29 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: The Resistance has begun. Remy Alexander wants vengeance. When she and her friends discover a clue that could help reveal the truth behind the massacre that claimed her sister's life, she may finally get her chance. Valerian Orlean wants answers: to why the girl he was in love with disappeared three years ago, why she joined the Resistance - a covert organization sworn to destroy everything he believes in. When he is appointed to lead a government program whose mission is to hunt and destroy the Resistance, he may finally find his answers - and Remy. In a world where the powerful kill to keep their secrets and the food you eat can change who you are, Remy and Vale are set on a collision course that could bring everyone together - or tear everything apart. In this science-fiction dystopia, the mother-daughter writing team of Kristina, Amira, and Elena Makansi immerse listeners in the postapocalyptic world of the Okarian Sector, where romance, friendship, adventure, and betrayal will decide the fate of a budding nation. Be sure to continue the story with The Reaping, book two of the Seeds Trilogy, and The Prelude, a novella about Soren Skaarsgard, one of listeners' favorite characters. Members Reviews: A good read. When Remys sister is murdered by outsiders, or so they are told, she is devastated. When questions arise about it her family abandon the sector and join the resistance. She left everything behind including her boyfriend Valerian. Years later and Valerian is now leading the hunt to stop the resistance. He has no idea why Remy left and still thinks of her. He knows he has to stop the resistance no matter what, even if Remy is involved. When he is told some hard truths he has to find evidence and what he finds shocks him to the core. His life is not what he thinks and now he has to take drastic action. When I first saw the cover of this I thought aliens. After reading the blurb though I knew it would be something Id enjoy and enjoy it I did. I loved Remys character. She is strong, determined and loyal. She often goes out on raids and is well able to look after herself. When she lost her sister it devastated her but when she learned the truth she knew she had to go. Her life before was amazing but now she has to fight for survival. Everyday is a battle for food and answers. Vale was an awesome character too even though he was the "bad" guy. He has been brought up to believe what the sector says but when he learns what cost is involved he chooses his own path. He is smart, strong and loyal. When I heard that this was written by a mother/daughter team I was a bit hesitant to read it because I wasn't sure how well 3 people voices would come together. I needn't have worried though because the book was seamless. Not once did it feel like I was reading something 3 people wrote. The only downside to The Sowing was the science and genetics part. Most of it went over my head. I understood only some and skimmed alot of the big words!!! I still found it fascinating though. The idea that the sector controls everything and genetically modifies food for each person was something you could imagine. Overall The Sowing was awesome. The plot was well paced and fast enough. The story was complex and gripping and the characters were all well developed. I flew through the book and didn't want it to end.

I am Angel 6.0, engineered to perfect the human genome. I might be the savior of the human race...if I can escape the Gran, ferocious alien cats who want to breed me for slave stock. My name is Angel, and I live on Nugene Station. My days are filled with doctor's tests, but I spend my nights dancing in zero G, or in the arms of my secret lover, Carver Liddell. Nugene is the sole outpost orbiting Jupiter where specially engineered human clones are bred for sale to the Gran. The treaty between humanity and the cats guarantees a constant supply of worker drones. I am not a worker drone. I am something else. I am the untapped potential of the human genome, the next step in human evolution. The cats finally noticed me, they know I am special. Now they want to breed me. Silly cats, don't they know clones are sterile? Nugene is only the beginning of my story. Members Reviews: HIS SOAPY BALLS IT HURT JUST THE WAY I LIKE IT With out coming right out and saying it, we are lead to believe that Angel, who is a clone, was made from DNA from Angelina Jolie. She is a bit naïve about some things, but not sex. She also likes pain. THE JOY OF MY PAIN Earth has lost a war with a Cat like alien race. This race wants slaves. Scientist on a space station, make clones, so the CATS will leave Earth alone. There is actually some science in this, as well as science fiction, but it is mostly porn. HE WAS SO LARGE, HE SIMPLY COULD NOT FIT INTO ME WITHOUT LUBRICATION. The above statement only applies to sex partner number one. The CATS are built similar to humans, only with much larger packages. There is plenty of action in here to make both genders happy. The sex is hot. IF YOU CAN'T MASTER YOURSELF, SOMEONE ELSE WILL I liked it and will continue the series. WE ARE LIARS, WE LIE EVEN TO OURSELVES Narrator is excellent Sexy Sci Fi My first Space Opera Angel 6.0 is a hot short story that sets up for the beginning of a good series. I am intrigued with Angel and her abilities. The sex is hot and The narration is so good I could see her battling the Cat warriors, I could feel her thoughts. Great story and I can't wait for more. Love Angel!! I love this book! This is a story that is so well told about an alien race of giant cats and creation Angel that the captain wants. Angel is to stay hidden from the cats but when they arrive early she is seen and they want her. Angel hides but the cats are determined. The narrator brings this fantastic book to life and I can't wait to hear the next book! Interesting story, weirdly narrated. I really enjoyed the premise of the story, it was interesting. The narrator was kind of strange, I'm not sure I liked it. Kind of staccato with her words, sort of like a robot trying to disguise itself as human? It kind of worked for the story seeing as she's a clone though. Angel's journey has begun What made the experience of listening to Angel 6.0: Concubine the most enjoyable? Having read the book & LOVING it, I found listening to Angel's story gave it so much more depth.

Members Reviews: Great! Great story and an excellent narrator. I received a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review. WRONG COVER + POOR STORY = NO I was provided this audiobook through Audiobook Boom at no charge by the author in exchange for an unbiased review. Darn, I really wanted to like this but couldn't. So unbelievable but I'll give it a gold star for creativity. But Markithus was no Alpha. I didn't see any redeeming qualities in him other than yes, he wanted to have emotions. But he didn't fight much for anything. And Lanie wasn't much better. I rolled my eyes way too often, but I won't make a list. Narration was good. I've heard her performances before and they have never given me a cause to complain. Hands stuffed in my pockets, folks. Different from the start! I had a hard time at first with this story. It grew on me. Once I got into it, I didn't want to stop. Give it a try! I really enjoyed it. S I-Fi Horror There isn't a lot I can say without giving away the plot. I will disclose that it isn't your typical alien-to-human love story. A hint; earth girls make nice babies. It's H.P. Lovecraft, Stephen King, and Margaret Atwood rolled into one. If you enjoy being chilled to the bone, then this is for you. I listened to most of it but horror is not my genre. I gave up before the finish line. Entertaining I got this ARC via the author and this is my review. The narrator took the story and started running with it and did not stop until the end. I loved the way she showed Marticus arguing with himself. The descriptions were awesome. Especially loved how that suit wrapped around her so she would not be caught. When Lainey finally forgave him made me sit up and take notice. This was a well-developed story that kept my attention the whole while. I finished listening in one sitting. Lost some sleep but that was ok. I'm retired.I am my own boss. Good story about a cruel race but one of them was able to step out and see the world differently.

Wreck of the Nebula Dream Audiobook by Veronica Scott

Title: Wreck of the Nebula Dream Author: Veronica Scott Narrator: Michael Riffle Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 5 mins Language: English Release date: 02-20-13 Publisher: Veronica Scott Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 29 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: A reimagining of the Titanic disaster set in the far future among the stars.... Traveling unexpectedly aboard the luxury liner Nebula Dream on its maiden voyage across the galaxy, Sectors Special Forces Captain Nick Jameson is ready for ten relaxing days, and hoping to forget his last disastrous mission behind enemy lines. He figures he'll gamble at the casino, take in the shows, maybe even have a shipboard fling with Mara Lyrae, the beautiful but reserved businesswoman he meets. All his plans vaporize when the ship suffers a wreck of Titanic proportions. Captain and crew abandon ship, leaving the 8000 passengers stranded without enough lifeboats and drifting unarmed in enemy territory. Aided by Mara, Nick must find a way off the doomed ship for himself and several other innocent people before deadly enemy forces reach them or the ship's malfunctioning engines finish ticking down to self destruction. But can Nick conquer the demons from his past that tell him he'll fail these innocent people just as he failed to save his Special Forces team? Will he outpace his own doubts to win this vital race against time? Members Reviews: similar to the story of Titanic Special Forces Captain Nick Jameson is aboard the Nebula Dream, a colossal spaceship on its first trip. This spaceship is one of a kind, with luxurious entertainment and full with rich passengers in their way to Sector Hub. Suddenly one night Nick is shaken awake, and after several deceptions from the captain of the ship, things go south and then it is clear that the Nebula Dream does not have all the safety measures in order. And some want to take advantage of this. The first half of the book mirrored the ill-fated journey of the Titanic. I found this part interesting and while similar to the Titanic it was delivered in a fresh new way using a spaceship and a possible happier ending. Here we also get the characters' introductions, and we learn that Nick is a Special Forces Captain, always alert and very efficient at his job. Nick is left to rescue the 8000 passengers from the wreck; this is what Nick does, hes in the middle of everything saving the day. Another character is Mara, a businesswoman with special abilities that provide Nick with some much needed assistance in saving whats left. Nicks time frame is short and 8,000 lives depend on him and him alone! The second part of the book is about what happens after the incident, and despite being interesting and being well written too, this is the part I least enjoyed. In my opinion, it did not seem as if the characters continued to grow. Some parts of the book appeared to be forced the romantic aspect of it specifically. I do not enjoy romance in any book that I read, so this is just my opinion while others may find it refreshing. The forced part of the romance comes from the feeling of impending danger and where would they find time and energy to even care about relationships with everything going on? Again, this is my opinion and my preferences. Mara spent too much time trying to show how capable she was, and Nick had an arrogant attitude towards civilians in general and women in particular. This is typical given the usual expectations that we, females, face almost daily, I was hoping not to have to face it in this book. I was surprised that although this book is written by a female writer, there were too many damsels in distress moments.

Title: Timeless Pleasure Subtitle: Timeless Hearts Series, Book 9 Author: Sandra E. Sinclair Narrator: Meghan Kelly Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 37 mins Language: English Release date: 10-26-17 Publisher: Sandra E Sinclair Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Emily has built a wall around her heart, wanting no part of falling in love after witnessing the turmoil it has caused her loved ones. Ever since her mother walked on out them, she's been the one who has cared for her family. After her cousin goes away again, with no word to her, she goes searching for her so she can finally confront her over feelings she's kept bottled up for the past five years. Her search sends her back in time, and into the arms of Bradley Stolfi, a lonely cowboy with a shady past and a dark secret, he keeps hidden from the world. Bradley's secret and past are about to catch up to him, and will drag sweet Emily, the woman who's haunted his dreams for most of his life, down with it. In order to save her, he will have to give into the darkness he's spent his life fighting to keep under control. Emily is willing to risk it all, but will Bradley be willing to let her? Or figure out a way to save them both? Members Reviews: I really love this series! This is the third book in the series that I've read and I'm really enjoying them. You could listen to it as a standalone but it has spoilers for earlier books. I really like the idea of traveling to another time to find your soul mate, there's something really sweet about it. I loved the characters in this book, along with getting to catch up with some characters from prior books, the two lead characters have some interesting challenges affecting their lives. Emily and Bradley are so sweet together, their romance was really lovely. This is a series that I'd re-read. The narration is excellent, I really enjoyed listening to it and the character voices were really well done. I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review. If you found this review helpful would you please take a moment to click yes below. Timeless... Timeless Pleasure is a wonderful standalone story, but we also get an update on characters from a prior story. Emily is trying to find out what happened to her cousin... in her search, she ends up traveling back in time. Is it possible that she could also find her true love? I absolutely adore Meghan Kelly's narration. She always does a fantastic job with the different character voices and bringing out the different emotions. Love of Strong Woman Calms Inner Beast Overall Rating 3.5 Stars. Timeless Pleasure is the 9th book in the Timeless Hearts Multi-Author Western Time Travel Romance Series, but I believe it is the 3rd story written by Sandra E. Sinclair that flow from her first story in the series, Timeless Whisper. In Timeless Whisper, Raven unexpectedly travels back to 1880 Texas and she inevitably falls in love with the ancestor of her lost love. In Timeless Pleasure Ravens cousin Emily travels back to approximately the same place as her cousin, but a few years later. There she quickly encounters a lonely cowboy who seems to know all about Emily, even though he has never met her. The pair are instantly attracted to each other and have a unique pull toward each other. I really liked the soulmates idea behind this story and how Emily calmed the inner turmoil and beast inside Bradley. Meghan Kellys narration of the story was simply sublime! She provides different voices for all characters and she has great intonation and pace.

Mute Audiobook by Piers Anthony

Title: Mute Author: Piers Anthony Narrator: Steven Menasche Format: Unabridged Length: 20 hrs Language: English Release date: 01-09-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 21 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Mute is science fantasy of mutation and psi: special mental powers. The protagonist, Knot, is a double mutant: He has a physical deformity, and the psi power to make others forget him. He's satisfied with his life - until the lovely Finesse walks into his life to recruit him for a dangerous galactic mission. She is aided by two small animal mutants: a telepathic weasel and a clairvoyant crab. Knot tries to resist, aided by his psi, but the woman's beauty and the animals' powers doom him to a phenomenal adventure. Members Reviews: Terrible Would you try another book from Piers Anthony and/or Steven Menasche? I would not read another Piers Anthony book after this travesty however Steven Menasche's narration was probably the only reason I held on through the end. What didnt you like about Steven Menasches performance? Great narration. No problems there. You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? Interesting take on a society built around psi powers. Any additional comments? Sexist. Misogynistic. Pointless. Abrupt ending. Multiple times found myself question the actions of the characters, in that if they had just used the powers/ resources they had used earlier in the book they could have easily overcome their current hurdle. Example: *SPOILERS* During the final battle why did Knot wait until the majority of his group was dead/ incapacitated to align with the bees and get the override code for the door to the main CC power room. He could have aligned with the bees in the first control room they entered. *END SPOILERS* Sloppy writing. Really didn't want to finish the book and would have been happier if I had stopped half way through saving myself from the pointless ending. There are no other reviews for this book which is why I am leaving one, in hopes that I save at least one other unsuspecting listener from my fate. But what do I know? I'm just a woman.

Governing His Bride Audiobook by Emily Tilton

Title: Governing His Bride Author: Emily Tilton Narrator: Patrick Blackthorne Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 04-27-17 Publisher: Emily Tilton Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: After she catches the eye of William Verner at a dance on the colony world of Prosperia, 19-year-old Priscilla Auden's assigned guardian oversees her courtship with him. Though Priscilla is clearly taken with her rich, handsome suitor, when she is caught pleasuring herself after her first kiss her behavior must be addressed. During a thorough, intimate, premarital examination, it is explained to Priscilla that after her wedding it will be the right of her husband to govern her pleasure as he sees fit. To ensure her complete submission in such matters, from now on she will wear a device which will give William the ability to control her body's response to sexual stimulation. Though he fell in love with Priscilla the moment he saw her, William is well aware that teaching his little wife obedience will be no easy task. It will require not only firm discipline, but also skillful mastery of her body. If she behaves well, he will show her pleasure beyond anything she has ever imagined, but when she has been naughty she will ache for the slightest bit of arousal as her bare bottom is soundly and painfully spanked. Yet despite the best efforts of the colony's leadership, rebellion is brewing on Prosperia, and after Priscilla witnesses an erotic display by ungoverned renegades she is emboldened to defy her husband. Will the stern punishment which results be sufficient to tame her, or will William decide to cast aside propriety and let his bride run wild? Publisher's note: Governing His Bride is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, medical play, BDSM content, and more. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book. Members Reviews: Thoughtfully erotic! I loved this delightful and well written story. Turns the Victorian notion of controlled, thus repressed, eroticism and sexuality on its ear. To control a woman's natural sexual response doesn't have to mean that for the beneficial ordering of society and social class that her arousal be dampened, denied, or painfully shamed into submission. What if that arousal could be controlled to bring her the forbidden pleasure the new bride doesn't understand, to heighten her willing submission to her adoring husband, and to selectively create the perfect mindset for punishing the naughty wife? Sign me up with a first class ticket! Priscilla, the new bride, struggles to understand and accept the symbiotic relationship between her submission and her arousal. She adores both her husband and the embarrassing tingles his loving dominance prompt. When she thoughtfully considers his dominion over her and how those very thoughts cause her to feel aroused and excited she connects that whatever she is feeling is what her husband desires from her, thus they must be good and right. With the assistance of an implanted medical device colloquially called the 'governor' she comes to understand that her husband (who owns the remote control for the device) is always in control of her and she is safe to experience whatever feelings he has set her device to deliver.

Title: The Blue Alien's Mate Subtitle: A Sci-Fi Romance (Celestial Mates) Author: Zara Zenia Narrator: Max Lehnen Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 01-05-17 Publisher: Zara Zenia Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 14 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Are they meant to be mated? Urie is a leader and general of the Ura-Than race. He has no time to find a mate to create an heir to replace him as leader one day. Urie gets his friend Reli of the Celestial Mates agency to find him a mate. The only thing is that Reli's agency uses some methods that probably would not be accepted in certain cultures, such as bidding. Samantha was the one he lusted. She was just a human, but the most beautiful one he had ever seen. He needed to get her. At any cost. Urie knew he had to outbid the rest to get her. Getting adjusted to her new life is hard for Samantha. Urie has to keep on planning how to defend his own people against the enemy, X, and he soon learns of a possible traitor amongst his own that may even go all the way to the top of his most trusted generals and captains. What will happen between these two mates? Is their fate sealed? Or will one of their needs have to give if push comes to shove? The Blue Alien's Mate is part of the Celestial Mates series and is a standalone, full-length science fiction romance novel. There are no cliffhangers, no cheating, and a guaranteed happy ending! Members Reviews: good Any additional comments? This audiobook was given to me for a honest unbiased review. This was good, not great but not horrific either. Had potential, but the delivery was not great. DOESN'T DELIVER IN HEAT, ROMANCE OR VOCALS Any additional comments? I was provided this audiobook through Audiobook Boom at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review. I expected a steamy and raw alien abduction adventure but didn't get it. What I got was a romp of a story that quickly moved from one scene to (often unrelated) another. Beginning with a battle to meet Urie, going to meeting Samantha as she's captured during a run. And then back and forth. The opening battle provided only one component that carried through and even that added nothing to the story. As far as the romance... Samantha unequivocally fought against any submission, and yet one sight of Urie in the shower and she was (more or less) submissively in love. That lead to one sex encounter, over pretty darn quick, and she's happily playing house. There's turmoil as Urie sets off to save his family. Not to spoil anything, I'll just say I never felt he had Samantha as his #1 priority. The book kept me listening because it moved quickly. It failed to evoke any strong feelings, though. Stronger moral statements could have been made against racism & slavery. Or it could have been Erotica. Something. Sorry, but Max Lehnen didn't cut it for me. Maybe he's do better with a comedic verse... the narration was so "once-upon-a-timey" (ugh). I can't think of a word to describe it. He sounded "old" or "preachy" or "singsong." Looking into his other (many) works, the books get good reviews but his narration most often doesn't. My final answer? Comme ci comme ça. Passable. Good story I enjoyed this story, but there was just something about this narrator doing the female voice that turned me off! It was good. What made the experience of listening to The Blue Alien's Mate the most enjoyable? I liked the love they where'd for their baby. Who was your favorite character and why? Samantha was my favorite character.

Until he's forced to meet with the sexy and psychotic pirate, Adelina Cande. They've met before. When he seduced her, cleared out her credit account, and left her for dead. Caleb figures Adelina holds a grudge when she plants a bomb on his ship and demands he steal a fleet freighter for her, that is, if he ever wants to fly again. Get him drunk enough and he'll try anything once, but this time, he has to balance his own greed with the needs of a vengeful pirate and the scheming of his dubious second-in-command, Fran. What could possibly go wrong? In the heart of Chitec headquarters, #1001 enlists an eager young technician to aid in her escape. But it's not freedom she wants. It's revenge. The memories of a life that don't belong to her demand she finishes what she started. She believes she killed Caleb, now she's targeting Chitec CEO Chen Hung, and not even the hopeful technician can dissuade her. Synthetics don't make mistakes. She thought she knew the truth. She was wrong. Warning: Adult content. 18+ only. Sexy, dirty science fiction. Space opera. Members Reviews: Good Raw Science fiction but not for young people I must say I really love this book. It is raw and the characters are too. There are some sex scenes and language but it helped to really bring out the character. The narration is unique with multiple voice actors and even some minor sound effects. It is almost like a radio performance. I really enjoyed the authors description of each of the character's thoughts and the splitting up of the chapters by character. Overall good science fiction highly suggested not to listen to it in the car with the kids. It ended leaving me anxiously waiting for the next novel. Great second book, want the third now :) This was a great second book, I followed on straight from the first, but my reviews are way behind. haha. I have to say I don't always like Calen or what he does, or tried to do, but the set up and deliverance of the story here, and his character arc, alongside 1001's was really well woven. There's so much deep history in here, and some really not good decisions, until you get past the fact he mostly pretends to be an ass, then you can't really understand and feel for him. I really am interested in seeing how they are going to sort out all of this mess. Well written, well-involved story, that makes you think about what you might do yourself in their situations. Not everyone is as good as we think when death is facing them. Bring on the next. :)

This story is filled with so many things, charm, hot romance, adventure, humor and of course it continues the story of Roark (although I wish we heard more about Roark and Mira than we did). The ending also felt rather rushed, so i hope the next installment tells a fuller story. Can't wait!!! Wonderful A wonderful second book in the 'Earth Women' series. Just hoping the next one will be available very soon.

Some friendly competition. A first love. And a dangerous organization that will stop at nothing to destroy them all. After surviving a danger-filled trip to Peru, Russ Becker looked forward to a laid-back summer spending time with his new love, Nadia. But plans go awry when he and his friends are invited by the Praetorian Guard to the event of the season. The mission? To protect the president and her daughter from assassination at the elegant Presidential Black Tie Bash. While Nadia struggles with her own troubles at home, Russ is torn, but determined to do his job, not easy when he doesn't know who to trust. Battling for his life against the evil Associates, Russ confronts his worst fears and learns shocking revelations about those around him. Members Reviews: here we go First off, a big pet peeve of mine, authors horrible leaps in logic. Forcing characters to act extremely stupidly just to further the plot. Something that makes it worse is that nearly everyone involved is supposedly a genius and somehow they act semi impaired. Secondly the personalities. These are 15 and 16 year olds. I could see them being somewhat immature but not to the extreme that they were portrayed. They seemed more like 13 year olds. Nadia is the only one that acted anywhere near her supposed age. Along with this, the audio narrator seemed to think so as well as they barely sounded older than 12. This series held a lot of potential but maybe pushing towards a preteen audience too hard is not the answer. climax was too long great book, but almost half of it was the climax scene. it was clear what was going to happen but it was put off repeatedly, or things were re-explained at the beginning of new chapters. Great ending Great story, from book one through book three, well defined characters, story line easy to follow, and the ending was good. I could have u gone

The captain of the Gran knows my secrets - I'm the product of illegal genome experiments to perfect the human race. He exploits my special qualities when I serve as his concubine. When I'm not serving the captain, I fulfill his wishes. He ordered me to breed or die, so I breed, constantly. Or I try to. Jason, my fellow captive and lover, is my anchor to sanity. Unfortunately, Jason doesn't know my secrets. He considers clones an abomination. I fear the day my lover helps us escape as he's promised. I fear his rejection if he learns of my deceit. I pray to a universe that has never shown me favor. I pray our love can survive our escape. The series: Born of illegal experimentation on the human genome, I've been taken for a ride across the galaxy, enslaved to the warlike race of cats called the Gran. They think I'm some kind of upgrade, a new slave stock to be bred. Though many would resent me for the decisions I have made, they never experienced my struggle to find love and meaning in a world where I do not belong. A freak of nature, the humans don't want me. Far more valuable than they could ever know, the cats don't appreciate me. Trapped in the conflict between two galactic empires, the pirates can't save me. Thrust into the center of an interstellar war, the Earth Defense Council never saw me coming. I am Angel 6.0, and this is the dark, wicked, violent tale of my life. Members Reviews: I WETTED FOR HIM NO MATTER WHERE I WENT ON THIS SHIP, I WAS ALWAYS TAKING MY CLOTHES OFF. After giving a great review for book one, I have to say the follow up was a major disappointment. The porn scenes seemed rushed and not as well FLESHED out as well as the first installment. TL seems to try and make this either more legit, or he just was rushing through to hit a dead line. The story line was boring and the sex was boring. The rest of the sequels have an extra hour and cost twice as much, so I will not continue the series. Even the reviewers who loved this book, did not spend money on the sequels. At the time of this writing they have no reviews, which makes me question how much they loved this one. I LIKED THE WEIGHT OF HIS HEFTY COCK IN MY HANDS In my review of book one, I mentioned how all the men are very well endowed. In this book, JASON'S BROTHER HAD AN EVEN BIGGER COCK. A Really Good Story! This was a great continuation of Angel's story alot of action and a little bit of drama but not too over done. Too bad one of the characters had to die I really had started to like him in the first book but oh well he died for a good cause. And I hope Angel starts to grow more as a person and fully understand what it means to be human. I can't wait to see how she continues to handle what life has in store for her. it definitely has been a bumpy space road so far. Love this sci-fi erotica Rachel Orlin did a great job with this second installment of Angel 6.0. Escape picks up exactly where we left off previously and takes us on a wild, heartbreaking ride. There were some insanely hot scenes, some heartbreaking moments and many badass-heroine cheering ones. Can our Angel catch a break? I'm looking forward to the continuation of this series. Badassery at it finest This was great! Loved the action in this one! The blood the gore the sex.

After escaping their home, six aliens, including Benzen, hope to find freedom on a different planet. They end up crashing onto a strange planet, a strange culture, and even stranger inhabitants. They expected to learn some new things. However, one didn't expect to find love. The Orba warriors are on the run from their people, now that their once peace-loving planet has been taken over by a hostile dictator, Palzu. They find out that they ended up on Earth and meet a young woman named Allison who takes them under her wing. When Palzu's soldiers come after them, the group splits up and Benzen stays behind to protect Allison. But then he starts to develop feelings for her. What will happen when he's forced to show her what he truly is? Will she accept him or fear him? And will they be able to escape Palzu's forces? Benzen is the first book in the Warriors of Orba series, following the Orba warriors and the human women that love them. Each book in this science-fiction series can be read as standalones, there are no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed happily ever after! Members Reviews: great Any additional comments? This audiobook was given to me for a honest unbiased review. This sci-fi romance was great. Loved how the Aliens had to learn Earth's culture. This is a different take on other sci-fi romances where the human woman has to go to a different planet and learn different culture. This difference makes this book stand out. It is good that not all of the book was sex, there are sex scenes, but this is not a full out erotica porn situation, but a romance!! Smut has its place, but for those who want a little more romance than sex, this is perfect for you. Benzen Any additional comments? Good start to a series. Entertaining, fun and enjoyable short story. It's a good story for those days when you want something a little different. The Warriors from Orba are refugees from outer space looking for a safe place to live. Romance, a bit of action, humor, aliens, mental abilities, strange new world, and a HEA. While the story was entertaining, engaging and interesting enough to keep my attention it would have been nice to have a little of their backstory before they landed on earth. As well as a bit more of the relationship between Allison and Benzen. But then again, there is only so much you can fit into a shorter story. It started out with a bit of action then slowed down for a while to focus on the warriors acclimating to their new surroundings then picked up again with more action. The "innocence" of the Orba warriors in their new surroundings was humorous to hear. Having to learn the "human" ways of life and trying to adopt to their surroundings gave the story a lighter tone in between the action. It is the first in the series so not all the lingering questions are answered in this book. I am actually looking forward to the next book in the series. It synopsis sounds really good. Sierra Kline did a good job with the narration. Pleasant voice. Easy to listen to for long periods of time. Good character voices even her male voices are good. Clearly spoken with a nice pace. She was able to make the characters come to life.

Prepare to Die! Audiobook by Paul Tobin

Author: Paul Tobin Narrator: Ray Chase Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 12-21-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 146 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Nine years ago, Steve Clarke was just a teenage boy in love with the girl of his dreams. Then a freak chemical spill transformed him into Reaver, the man whose super-powerful fists can literally take a year off a bad guys life. Days ago, he found himself at the mercy of his archnemesis, Octagon, and a whole crew of fiendish super-villains, who gave him two weeks to settle his affairs - and prepare to die. Now, after years of extraordinary adventures and crushing tragedies, the worlds greatest hero is returning to where it all began in search of the boy he once was...and the girl he never forgot. Exciting, scandalous, and ultimately moving, Prepare to Die! is a unique new look at the last days of a legend. Editorial Reviews: When Reaver is captured by his nemesis Octagon, he is allowed a two-week stay of execution to get his life in order before he is to be killed. He decides to return to his old life - before the chemical spill that turned him into a superhero - as Steve Clarke, and back to the girl he has always loved. Paul Tobin creates a moving meditation on mortality and regret in Prepare to Die!, a powerful demystification of superhero myth. Ray Chase gives an indelible performance, augmenting the broken, yearning, and rueful emotion behind Steve Clarke's final days. Critic Reviews: "This is something of a comic book without drawings, and Chase brings his A-game, further energizing the action scenes and making for a guilty pleasure of a listen." (AudioFile) Members Reviews: A Superhero's "Behind the Music" Imagine if Wolverine from the X-Men had written a tell-all autobiography á la Rob Lowe's Stories I Only Tell My Friends or _The Kid Stays in the Picture_ by Robert Evans. You'll be pretty close to the overall flavor of _Prepare to Die!_. It dishes up action, existential ruminations, feel-good nostalgia, adolescent angst, and a few genuine surprises along the way. Prepare to Die! imagines a superhero universe from the ground-up, replete with the internecine conflicts, epic battles, and agonizing betrayals that normally unfold over the run of a comic book series. The book is written in an in-universe, autobiographical voice. Its "author" is a superhero known as Reaver -- so-called because he can take a year off a person's life with each of his punches. Reaver is writing for an audience that already reads about superheroes in tabloids and watches them on TMZ. Superheroes are are as much a target of the paparazzi as they are of supervillains. The in-universe audience already knows the characters. They know their stories, but they don't know the _whole_ story. The story starts off with our hero, Reaver, facing down his arch-nemesis Octagon. Reaver is losing badly. He's cornered, out of options, and has literally no fight left in him. As Octagon prepares to administer the coup de grâce, he delivers the bad guy boilerplate: "Prepare to Die!" Reaver ponders this and responds: "Ok. How long do I have to prepare?" Surprisingly, Octagon agrees to give him some time to prepare to die. This sets off an existential journey through Reaver's past. He examines the genesis of his superhero powers and persona. He takes a trip back to his childhood hometown to see the love he lost when he took up the superhero-ing life. I'm not a comic book afficionado by any means.

Steffan Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 51 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: They're fighting the same battle. They just don't know it yet. Skye Chantrell has just escaped a war zone. She's carrying the stolen antidote to a deadly bioweapon. When her damaged shuttle crashes on a remote lunar outpost, she's captured by the leader of a rogue group of barbaric aliens. Now her people's survival - not to mention her own - rests in the hands of the Seven Systems' most feared and hated criminal. A man with the face of a brutal thug, and the eyes of an angel. Hunter Tarthasian has every reason to hate the Regime. He and his comrades have turned vigilante, vowing to use every means at their disposal to bring down the evil Premiere. Now, they're hunted and on the run, holed up in an abandoned outpost while they plan their next move. The last thing Hunter needs is a female human civvy with a terrible secret crash-landing on his doorstep. Especially when she starts to awaken feelings in him that he can't afford right now. Feelings that could very easily get all of them killed. From award-winning author R. A. Steffan comes a sizzling new sci-fi romance series, perfect for fans of J. R. Ward and Sherrilyn Kenyon. Strap in tight, because all's fair in Love and War. Members Reviews: Light sci-fi romance I sometimes feel chagrined when I give fewer stars to an audiobook that most other reviewers have rated highly. For this audiobook, I give both the story and the narration three stars. Narration preferences are very subjective, but I found it hard to get through the narration of this audiobook because the narrator emoted a wee bit too much for my comfort. Within the first three minutes of the narration I knew that I wouldn't be able to emotionally engage with the heroine because of the way the narrator gave voice to Sky's anxiety/panic/dread/hysteria. It sounded like she was experiencing significant post-traumatic stress for most of the book. For the same reason, the hero didn't resonate with me either - he didn't sound like a very attractive or compelling man, given the voice that the narrator used for his character. I'm aware that this narrator has done lots of work in children's literature, and I can definitely appreciate how her vocal style would fit well with that genre. But for this story, I increased the playback speed and focused on the content. I thought that the story was okay. The plot made sense and was interesting. It's a light romantic sci-fi story with some steaminess and no real tension between the main characters - they both deny their attraction to eachother at the start, but find their happily ever after by the time the story is finished. The dynamics between the hero and heroine were very predictable, with no surprises. What I did find interesting, and what makes me curious about seeing how this series progresses, were the cast of supporting characters. Most of the supporting characters resembled personalities I've seen in other series (e.g., by Ward, Showalter, Cole, or Singh), but there was one secondary character - a cyborg - who did pique my interest.

F814 exists to serve the humans until they decide to terminate her. An instinct for survival makes her fight, but when she achieves freedom, she discovers she cannot throw off the chains of habit. Everything changes when another flesh-covered droid arrives, a cyborg he calls himself, who teaches her she is more than a machine. Solus hates humanity, and even though he was born as a flawed human, he strives to eradicate all traces of it from his persona - until he meets F814. Meeting and touching her releases something in him. Has him yearning for things he doesn't understand. Makes him long for affection. Before he can learn to love though, he must first tackle the task of reminding F814 that she is more than the sum of her mechanical parts. But of course, when dealing with an illogical thing like emotions, there is no sure plan for success. Members Reviews: Solus is an alpha male commander who wants to show Fiona what it is to be a cyborg and finds love himself. These two are so stubborn but once ... F814/Fiona thinks she is a worker droid despite her differences with the other droid miners on the planet they are mining but when the order comes in to kill her she finds that spark inside herself and instead fights her captors and ends up all alone on the planet until a ship filled with cyborgs lands looking for minerals. Solus is an alpha male commander who wants to show Fiona what it is to be a cyborg and finds love himself. These two are so stubborn but once the walls come down the love is intense. exciting & chilling in its implications The premise behind this story, and the series as a whole, is heartbreaking. Emotions run deep throughout the entire story, yet at the same time the action packed and exciting plot definitely sizzles. Langlaisâ intricately crafted plot definitely held my attention throughout. I found the nano-tech endlessly appealing. Langlais not only sparked my imagination, but also kept my science minded brain endlessly reeling with the concepts that she brought forth. It was both chilling and exciting. Her vividly intricate world building makes it even more real. Letâs not forget the cast of characters that made this story even better. Langlaisâ combines a heroine who believes sheâs nothing more than a machine and a hero who believes heâs better off alone. This main couple held my attention throughout, but there was so much more to the story than simply them. I really enjoyed getting to know Seth, Aramus, and Einstein better. Theyâre all so different and their personalities and beliefs affect them each in different ways. This is a story so hot your ereader will go up in flames. At the same time, the story is exciting and chilling in its implications. F814 Fiona has no real memory of her past. Just the last 300 days in a mining area on an asteroid. When the foreman seems to taser her she starts remembering thing from her past and when he says he'll be terminating her she declares war. Solus isn't looking for love just some female cyborgs he didn't know existed until another cyborg female claimed there were. While hunting he finds her not wanting to go with him and his brothers. When Solus flings her over his shoulder and forces her to go with him she starts feeling safe and protected.

She'd like to blame her illogical affection for him on hormones, but the erotic remedy just heightens her chemical imbalance. Reg never thought a simple rescue mission would make him question his decision to remain single, for while Penny drives him crazy with her never-ending questions, her simple presence inflames his lust - and causes havoc with his emotions. But is he ready to give up the galactic travel he loves so much to settle down with an earthling female? Members Reviews: Hilarious! The Alien Mate series is absolutely hilarious! With the sassy heroines asking about being probed, to the strong and handsome Alien objecting to being called the Alien. Throw in some rescuing vs abducting jokes, hot sexy-fun times, and a snarky computer, this book was impossible to put down. Reg Reg has manners who would have thought, âI apologize for my sexual advances of a moment ago. I have long been without a female and did not mean to maul you.â I liked this book Reg was a good guy even if he was in denial, but thank goodness Penny was a focused little thing where he was concerned.

Riley Narrator: BettySoo Format: Unabridged Length: 13 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 12-05-16 Publisher: Madeline Sheehan Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 14 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: It is the end of the world. They call him Eagle, like the grand and beautiful bird that symbolizes freedom. During these dark times, when humanity is experiencing nothing but suffering, a man with such a powerful name should be a beacon of hope, yet he is anything but. Her name is Autumn, but she hasn't said this name or much of anything else in the four years since the fall of civilization. A shell of her former self, living wild in a cave at the bottom of a ravine, Autumn is accustomed to being alone. She prefers it, actually, especially when her only options for company either try to kill her, or worse, to lock her up inside their walls. Captured by Eagle's people, Autumn is suddenly thrust back into the land of the living, but she would hardly call it living. The community of Purgatory is full of sinners, the most evil of whom seem to have set their sights on her. In an act born of anger and defiance, Eagle becomes Autumn's unexpected savior, forcing these two solitary people into each other's broken worlds. Neither knows quite what to make of the other, but one thing is certain. To survive Purgatory, they must learn how to rely on each other, a feat that could possibly teach them both how to live again. Members Reviews: Different from the first book...in a good way. While I liked Thicker than Blood (book 1), It was hard for me to read because the characters were never able to really catch a break. This book on the other hand absolutely blew me away! Its raw and gritty, full of deep emotion. You will FEEL everything in this book. It was amazing to watch a little bit of beauty grow in a world that was twisted and dark. The character development with Eagle and Autumn was so impressive. This is now at the top of my favorites list. Walking Dead This story was simular to the TV program the Walking Dead, simular as the same walking dead people, if they bite you, you become a zombie so to speak. The story was mainly about surviving within a camp, the hostility that is generated when life it self comes down to surviving. A couple of lost souls find each other regardless how cruel life becomes. Enjoyed the journey the story token me on.

She's seeking a woman who could be the answer to all their problems...or just another nightmare made reality. Travelling alongside Nova, the two women are faced with countless threats and inexplicable circumstances...just another day in the land of the dead. But Nina is changing, feeling the strain of this life, and beginning to rethink the choices she's made and the woman she's become. New allies will be forged on this road of self-discovery, bonds will be broken, and old enemies will resurface. Nina will be forced to make a decision that could have devastating consequences. However life is nothing without someone to love, or a family to love you in return. And in this new world, there is only one way to prove that love is still possible. Sacrifice. Members Reviews: Love/hate relationship I loved the story but found myself saying "You stupid b***ch" more than once at Nina. She was mean, rude, and self- centered and threw temper tantrums. I will continue to read the series as they come out because I like the story, but I hate Nina. Worth the read? Yes, but prepare to yell at Nina. A lot. Great Book I loved this series and so ready for the rest of the story...the wait begins Love this author I have been enjoying Odium since book 1. Hated the wait until book 3 but LOVED it when it became available. I will look for other books by this author as she is really good :) Thank you! and hurry up with number 4! If this is the end I will not be happy That being said I know not all series can go on forever..... but still! Damn! I actually loved the narrator even though I wasn't happy with the change in book 3. It's usually frustrating. Still she did an excellent job. This one just left me wanting more and I don't think I'm going to get it. I would have loved for them to go find all of the stuff stashed in Old man Rileys bunker from book one. I'd love to know if the cabin is ever found. I don't like making assumptions. Sure I can imagine what happens after but I'd rather know. Lol

After escaping Palzu's clutches, Jarick and Victorinth split up from the group and end up hopping on a train to land in a small town just outside of a larger city. That city contains one of the most secretive and powerful laboratories in the world, the Trojan Group. They have been on alert due to signs of actual extraterrestrial life sensed in the vicinity. One of the lab techs, Madison, is able to track down the two aliens, leading to their capture. At first, it seems as though the Orbas are just going to be studied, but Madison learns that some of the higher-ups in the group have been replaced with alien lookalikes who want to kill Jarick and Victorinth. Madison is able to get them out of there without too much trouble, but the aliens are now aware that she knows they're hiding in plain sight. They need to find a way to escape. In the process, Jarick finds that he really wants Madison. More than he thought. Madison, too, starts to fall for Jarick. But can they really be together? She's human, and he's an Orba warrior. An alien! Will their newfound love survive the ultimate test? Will they be able to escape the imposter aliens who have infiltrated the Trojan Group? Jarick is the second book in the Warriors of Orba series, following the Orba warriors and the human women that love them. Each book in this science fiction series can be read as standalones. There are no cliffhangers, no cheating, and a guaranteed happy ending! Members Reviews: Aliens on Earth Jarick tells the story of Alien siblings and the human woman coming to their aid. Madison feels responsible for the aliens, Jarick and Victorinth, since she provided to info that resulted in their capture. This is a story to listen to if you are just looking for an escape from your own everyday life. It is science fiction, and I think it is meant to be taken as a fun book, though there are elements of drama, suspense and action. The love story has an abrupt beginning, but just enjoy the ride! Technically, I had a couple issues with the audio. I'm not sure if it was my end or the actual audio, but the were a number of times when there were little skips or tiny repeats in the play. I took the skips as I would a typo in a print book. Also, there was a canned/tinny quality to the book. This was most notable at the beginning, so I adapted as I continued along. Neither of these issues were enough to detract from my enjoyment of the story. Falling for An Alien Madison works for a company that is interested in outer space ... and they are looking for aliens and Madison finds them,,,Jarick and his his sister. Held captive and abused Madison, Jarick and his sister go on the run. Jarick is sweet and his sister is a typical young girl. Madison is determined to help them. Jarick and Madison fall in love. It's a simple uncomplicated story...nothing too spectacular and not real exciting. It's a light simple entertaining story. The narrator was ok, not great and not bad and there were a couple of repeats in the recording. I wouldn't use a credit but for a small price a nice enough listen. Different I got this book via audiobook boom. The narrator helped make the story. Madison was a good addition to the story. The narrator did not change voices for each character. The ending was anticlimactic. There was some humor thrown in but it fell flat.

Mallory, Russ, Jameson, and Nadia are just trying to blend in as normal teens while secretly learning to use their newfound superpowers. Everything changes when they're invited to travel to Peru under the supervision and protection of the Praetorian Guard, an organization claiming to have their best interests at heart. Seeing the trip as a challenge, the teens agree to go and help search for David Hofstetter, a man from their hometown who's been presumed dead for 16 years. Meanwhile the threat of the rival organization, the Associates, is always present. When knowing who to trust becomes more difficult, the four discover they can count only on each other. And when Nadia and Russ are thrown together in a fight for their lives, they realize their relationship might be headed for more than just friendship. Members Reviews: Engaging story, some questionable editing Any additional comments? The female narrator's voice and storytelling ability were enjoyable in many parts; I didn't mind listening to her for the whole book despite the many poorly edited segments. I enjoy this series. Book 2's story is fast-paced, engaging, and is a great continuation to the first book. Looking forward to hearing the third. Need to fix audio editing. There are quite a few times where to audio skips or changes volume. The story is good a and was worth it though. Decent story, but not the best female narrator. How could the performance have been better? I haven't finished listening, so i could be jumping the gun, but I've mainly heard the female narrator for the book, except for one chapter. Which wouldn't bother me, if she had done a better job. I understand they have to edit pieces together so they can take breaks from reading and such, but where they clipped it together was awful timing. And there seem to be a bit of feedback from the mic quite often. And the quality of the recording varies. And lastly, she doesn't really have a wide range of characters. Not the best, and I'm tempted not to finish the book. We'll just see if it gets any better.

Riley Narrator: Hollie Jackson Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 10-26-17 Publisher: Claire C Riley Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: The Dead aren't the only thing to fear. A kid, an old lady, and a heartbroken man...what could possibly go wrong? Mikey is holding true to his promise to Nina, and is doing everything he can to keep the group alive. But when something attacks the threesome in the middle of the night, things begin to take a turn for the worse. Luckily a new group - the N.E.O.s - are on hand to ease Mikey's burden and help fight alongside him. But first he must prove his worth to the leader Aiken and the people that follow him. Within this new group, Mikey begins to find a form of peace that he didn't think was possible after losing Nina, and he discovers his place within this new world. A place where killing isn't for fun, and is only ever committed as a last resort. His heart is still aching, but at the end of the world there's no time to stop and mourn, and as he searches out a Circus Freak Show and the horrors begin to stack up around him, Nina slips far from his mind. It's probably best, because there are many more terrors in store for him. Because within the folds of a small town, inside an old candy store, he meets a woman named Clare, her two dogs, and something that he never saw coming. Members Reviews: Loved it! Been waiting a while for this to be released in audio. It was well worth the wait. I loved it but the cliff hanger is frustrating purely because I'm concerned how long I'll have to wait for the next book to be released in audio. Really hoping it won't be as long.

And being kidnapped by aliens was the last thing she needed. Her alien captors are vicious and cruel. Only one man, or alien, can save her. Korzak is willing to do anything to find his mate. He's climbed the icy peaks of Mount Kavkor, just to discover her identity. Now he's raced across the galaxies, only to find that she's been abducted. Will Korzak be able to get to Olivia, his fated mate, in time? He's a skilled and ferocious warrior, but her abductors are no easy match. And what's going to happen even if he can save her? Olivia isn't exactly open to the idea of a fated mate, and she certainly wasn't expecting that her next lover would be a massive alien from another world. Korzak's Mate is the first book in Tarnen Warrior Mates, a steamy sci-fi alien romance series. Members Reviews: Look, this book is probably fine But I HATED it because 5 chapters into the book and the freaking h is TSTL! Combative at the most inappropriate times and totally ridiculous! She DECIDED to take the Hâs hand and instead of just continuing with deciding to trust him, she gets all huffy and demanding and stubborn. IN THE MIDDLE OF A SPACESHIP BATTLE THAT WILL DEFINITELY KILL HER. She demands answers and just ignores that the H is trying to get them out of a bad situation without, you know, the endless soul-sucking darkness of space killing them, and she is being a brat about it. TOO STUPID TO LIVE! TSTL. Ugh! Looking for Love on a Primitive Planet I received an advanced copy of this book. This is my honest review. Our hero, Korzak, is an alien prince on a mission: Find his fated mate, as foretold by the Oracle. The problem is that she's from a primitive planet in the middle of nowhere, doesn't sound super excited about the idea of fated mates and , oh yeah, she's bee kidnapped by the enemy of his people the CAT. But that's not going to stop him. Olivia is his fated mate. Our heroine, Olivia, is a bit down on her luck at the moment. She just ended a long term relationship and got fired. She is currently in a relationship with her couch, ice cream and Star Trek. But her pity party is interrupted by a good 'ol fashioned alien abduction which is quickly followed by a rescue from a hot alien hunk. Things are looking up! Overall, this was a very enjoyable fun romantic romp. There was a lot of action, and some comedy, as our romantic duo try to escape the CAT and Korzak tries to blend in with the locals. I also loved the Oracle. It made my inner geek happy. There were a few things that I think could have been improved. At one point, the hero and heroine are alone for 20 hours together in close quarters and the author didn't use that time to have them talk or get to know one another. I think that was a wasted opportunity. But really the positives outweigh the negatives in this fun sci-fi romance. Korzak's Fated Mate is Human I volunteered to read an Advanced Reader Copy of this book and to submit an honest review. Olivia has had a bad stroke of luck lately. Her boyfriend of four years broke up with her and she was just laid off from her paralegal job. To say the least, she's depressed and has decided to binge watch Star Trek. Quite suddenly she finds herself kidnapped by blue aliens that have taken her on their ship.

After genetically altered weeds devastate Earth's croplands, Dr. Tula Macoby believes photosynthetic skin can save the human race. Her people single-mindedly embark on a mission to convert the cannibals roaming what's left of Earth. But when Levi, a peaceful stranger, refuses alteration, Tula doesn't think the only options should be conversion or death. Levi Kraybill, a devout member of the Old Order, left his Holdout farmland to seek a cure for his terminally ill son. Genetic manipulation is a sin, but Levi will do almost anything for the life of his child. When he's captured, he's sure he's damned, and his only escape will be death. Tula's superiors schedule Levi's euthanization, and she risks everything to set the innocent man free. Now she and Levi are outlaws with her people, and she's an abomination with his. Can they find sanctuary in a cannibal wasteland? Book One in the Botanicaust Series Members Reviews: Unusual and suspenseful An interesting and unusual post apocalyptic audiobook. The world created by the author is unusual, innovative but a bit hard to get into at first. The cannibals, Amish, photosynthetic people and the reclusive techno cave-dwelling immortals were all a bit confusing and took some sorting out but once I had everything straight, I really enjoyed it. It is a fascinating world that has a complex mix of societies and they all believe that theirs is the right way to live. The main protagonists, Tula and Levi, are from very different societies and the development of their relationship is convoluted and heartwarming. This book had suspense, intrigue, romance and an original storyline. The narrator did a great job of highlighting the differences between the characters and expressed emotions well. I received this audiobook at no cost in exchange for an honest review. Another Unique Apocalypse Botanicaust is a rather unique post apocalypse world, after some botanical plague nearly destroyed all crops on earth. The book opens some unknown time after the apocalypse, but I'm guessing more than a couple of generations (there do not appear to be any people who witnessed it first hand left). At any rate, some of the characters have some knowledge of what they were told caused it, but that does come into question in the book. Humanity in the area of the novel has segmented into several groups. Their are several groups of technically capable people, who see the rest of the uncivilized world as "the cannibals". This is based on their knowledge that there was a lot of cannibalism post apocalypse, so they just have the mindset that everyone non-tech are cannibals. The non tech world, as we start to learn however, is not as simple as "all cannibals". We learn early on that Levi is from a small Amish like community of non-cannibals. And much further into the book Levi himself is surprised to learn that they weren't the only non-tech non-cannibals in the wasteland, and discover there are others living and trading that aren't just wanting to catch and eat them. Yes, there are cannibals, but I don't believe the problem is anywhere near as wide spread as the characters all thought.

Michelle Greggs had the perfect life; a loving husband, a nice home in San Francisco, and a belief in safety and security. That all ended the day the zombies rose. Against her wishes, her husband Mitch goes to one last day at his job as a police officer in the chaos of the Z virus epidemic. When he returns home as the undead, she is forced to kill her one and only love. With no safety and security to be had in SF, she is evacuated to the middle of nowhere in Central California. There, she clings to the remnants of safety behind cement walls, allowing others to venture outside to do the necessary killing of the undead. Teddy Ridgewood proclaims himself the King of Pittsburg, population one. To the survivors he joins, he projects an image of a fun-loving guy, thinking the zombie apocalypse is a never-ending video game. Inside, he dies a little with each undead kill, still seeing the people they were. Michelle yearns to embrace Teddy's live-for-today attitude as much as she yearns to embrace the man himself, but both things scare her more than the undead moaning outside the walls of the compound. Can Teddy help Michelle to let go of her fears, to enable her to find the strength he believes she has deep inside? Members Reviews: Zombies What was one of the most memorable moments of The Zombie Hunter's Wife? Good story, very good character development, easy to identify with the principals, and they are likeable. Just a good read.

And the evil reptilian Delphan demands immediate surrender of her ship. Can anything else possibly go wrong? Members Reviews: Great this was a great short story I like spiders by the way. liked everything about this story, the narrator did a excellent job he was very good with the female voices. this book was given free for a honest review and unbiased option from the narrator,publisher and or author via audio book boom Awesome sci-fi short! Aside from the giant spider in space (I hate spiders), this was a great story. Very creative short and the narrator does a great job with each character. Amazing listen Miss Mae delivers a well written story on the SciFi front. From the very start this was just an all around fun novella to listen to. Length of it makes it perfect for being stuck in rush hour traffic and keeping occupied. But you'll be more than occupied, you'll hope you have enough time to finish before you get there. Owen McCuen does an excellent job of voice the individual characters and bringing out the details of each through their very distinct voices. Highly recommend this. Short scifi What was one of the most memorable moments of Through a Glass Darkly? Since this is a short story, it is hard to tell you how good it is without giving away any of the story. I will say that the twist in this book was well thought out and does not disappoint. I listen in one sitting Definitely Not Their Day This short story packs a punch. In this future time computer viruses may no longer exist but with a few tweaks viola, never say never. To top it off they also have a spider like alien reeking havoc and that is just the start. It is definitely not your normal run-of-the-mill day for the medical transport ship, Captain Vexen Rheinhard, Remard, and the ship's computer, Della. Miss Mae gives us a complete space opera with lots of action, intrigue, and a bit of romance. It definitely does not feel like a short story. I swear I was panting part of the way through. Owen McCuen does wonderful justice to the female and male characters of all varieties in addition to some really cool sound effects. I am definitely a fan.

After living in the past for 14 years, Ryder is able to travel back to the future, but now that he's arrived, does he really want to be there?

She always does a fantastic job! Timeless Storm Although this is the continuation of book 1 in the timeless hearts series, it is a standalone. Ryder has been trapped in the past for 14 years and is finally getting the chance to go home, or as close to home as he can in the future. But things have changed a lot and Ryder has a lot to learn so he can readjust. Luckily things were set in place in the past to ease his return. This is a really fun story and series. Narration is very nice! Timeless love Ryder is an incredibly sweet southern gentleman from a time long past. He has lost so much coming to this modern time, that it is no wonder he finds comfort in a stranger with ties to his past life. Torin and Ryder are a perfect match! I love the connection that they both have with tornados and that they were brought together by Raven. I listened to this book without listening/reading the previous books in the series and I was able to still enjoy it without feeling lost. Meghan Kelly is one of my favorite narrators and she definitely doesn't disappoint with this story. Sometimes you can go back home Ryder Lucore was sucked into a time vortex 14 years ago. His teen and early twenties were lived in the 1800's. It is time to go home though, but can Ryder return to a home that is the same, yet completely different? Torin Hamilton is a sassy New Yorker finding herself in Heartsbridge, Texas as she tries to find out what happened to her friend. She is charged by that friend to take care of a man who looks and acts like he is from Texas, yet something is not quite right. Will this unlikely couple find love in each other before they kill each other, or will the weather take care of them? Sandra Sinclair writes a fun and interesting story filled with broken hearts, new hope, and land ripping tornadoes. Meghan does a great job telling Ryder and Torin's story! Wonderful story I loved this book. I've read the ebook and I absolutely love it on audible.

Mooney Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Emotionally scarred and physically weary, Dwan is ordered to go 47 years into the past in a last ditch effort to find the one man who can help her fight the monsters created decades ago by a company called Lambruchet. Monsters that have since devastated mankind and the world. Eli Voight has been battling the Lambruchet demons ever since the company had his father killed. As the first Troller, he's made it his duty to bring down the creatures and find a way to permanently stop them. He's skeptical of Dwan's claim that she's from the future. But her skill is undeniable, and her presence becomes an all-consuming passion for the man who had pushed aside any thought of a personal life in his quest to drive the demons to extinction. Dwan never expected to fall and fall hard for the emotionally unapproachable soldier. Worse, she knew what kind of death lay ahead for Eli, which meant there could never be a future for them. Together, they must fight to take out the monstrosities, or else Earth as it is will cease to exist. And the Earth that could be, Dwan's world, will only hold a future of horror and hopelessness. Members Reviews: X-Troller Non-stop action from page one that never let up until the very end of the story. I just loved Eli and Dwan. They were a great couple. The interaction between characters was fantastic and the world building was descriptive and intriguing. The whole time travel thing was great and made you feel like you were right there with Dwan and Eli. I highly recommend this book. X-Troller Loved it, well written, fast paced. I hope these circumstances do not happen in real life as its totally feasable. Love Dwan and Eli! Awesome chemistry. Linda Mooney never fails to enthrall me with her books. I enjoyed the book. Characters had chemistry. I thought this book was enjoyable. Linda Mooney writes well and keeps you interested in the characters. Her story lines are also very original and never boring. Xtroller meets Demonic Apocalypse This is a great sci-fi read, fast paced and keeps you glued to find out how it ends. Just like Alien's Ripley, you keep cheering Dwan to win against the demons and the company to get the life she deserves with hottie Troller, Eli.

Title: Angel 6.0: Enslaved Subtitle: Angel 6.0, Book 3 Author: Travis Luedke Narrator: Rachel Orlin Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 05-12-16 Publisher: Travis Luedke Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Abducted and enslaved as a concubine to alien Cats, I'm trapped on a jumpship racing across the galaxy. I am faster, smarter, stronger. I am Angel 6.0, engineered to perfect the human genome. I might be the savior of the human race if I can escape the Gran. Born of illegal genetic experiments to perfect the human race, I've been taken for a ride across the galaxy, enslaved to the warlike race of Cats called the Gran. They think I'm some kind of upgrade, a new slave stock to be bred. I live with a slave collar, a tracking system I can't escape. Torn from my lover's arms and shipped across the galaxy, I serve as Captain Cronin's concubine and pray Cesar, my pirate lover, finds a way to beg, steal, or barter my freedom. Trying to survive among the Royal Family of the Gran, I find friendship and new allies. As translator, I pray I can broker a trade between Cesar and the Gran - my one shot at freedom. If not, I'll surely go mad kneeling before the captain, serving him in ways I dare not admit to Cesar. I pray my pirate lover never learns the truth of the wicked things I do in service as the captain's concubine. Members Reviews: Guilty, Guilty, Guilty PLEASURE! Enter one badass GML (genetically modified lady), hatched in a lab, with the secret hopes that she would become the next step in the human evolutionary ladder, and humanity's answer to combating the race of technologically and physically superior humanoid cats - the Gran - who are plaguing our existence. All Angel really wants to do is dance around space in zero gravity and find a man who can fill the hole up, in her lonely, solitary heart, with love - well and maybe fill a few other holes while he's at it... But, instead, she gets passed around from one controlling, manipulative man to the next, treated like property, and way underutilized and underestimated. She spends an awful lot of time with one particular Gran Captain... ummmm... improving interspecies relations - hence the guilty pleasure - wink, wink. However, Angel is more than just a concubine, and this is the story of how she forces human and alien alike to understand that she does matter - a lot. This intriguing story plays out over several manageable-length episodes - three so far, but with more on the way (hopefully very soon!). The characters are three dimensional, the plot is fast paced, tight, and action packed. It's also filled with more than enough scintillating, titillating scenes of debauchery to keep your palms sweaty and your heart rate speedy. Not to mention there are enough massive members to satisfy even the most demanding of Size Queens! I just finished reading the third, and most recent, installment in Travis Luedke's Angel 6.0 Series, 'Enslaved', and can't wait to get my fix of the final two episodes (Pursuit & Emissary), and to see how it all turns out for Angel! Love and Lust among the Stars I received a free advance reading copy for my honest review. This was a great adventure with a girl that I am coming to like more and more. I had thought of Angel as childlike, which she was when this started, but she is maturing the more she is exposed to the world outside of Nugene. I like that the characters are becoming more clearly drawn as things go forward from book to book.

A clandestine relationship. A deadly plot. As an SR44ian male with a troubled past, Axel finds it difficult to adjust to his new home in the Six Saviors' silo. Met with utter disdain and palpable fear, his attention is always drawn to the one person he's been ordered to stay away from, but no matter how hard he tries, it seems fate has other plans. Eden was blessed with the ability to decipher auras, but when she meets the brooding Axel, she realizes he cannot be read. Not easily discouraged, she makes it her mission to find out why, oblivious to the potential danger that lies ahead for both of them. As their clandestine relationship unfolds, it becomes more and more difficult to maintain their secret. When Eden's father realizes that Axel has ignored his threats, he makes good on his promise to do away with him by any means necessary. With near-fatal injuries and intense feelings for the forbidden Eden, Axel is banished from the silo. In a twist of events leading Eden to be caught up in surprise Colonist activity, everyone in the silo depends on Axel to save her. Will his mission to rescue her be successful, or will it ultimately lead to both their deaths? Members Reviews: I liked it Axle is a good addition to the series. Hopefully there will be more books. Always great Always great story and narrator Five Stars Love it 4.25 stars--heartbreaking and encouraging 4.25 stars--AXEL is the thirteenth full length installment in Carly Fallâs contemporary, adult SIX SAVIORS paranormal/sci-fi romance series focusing on a species from the planet SR44. This is SR44ian Axel a member of the Rescue One team from planet SR44, and half human/half SR44ian Edenâs story line. Eden is the daughter of one of the original Six Saviors Hudson. AXEL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for background and cohesion. BACKGROUND: There were 6 original Savior warriors from planet SR44. The warriors were sent to earth over 220 years ago to stop and eradicate the 12 murderers who escaped from one of the moon colonies of planet SR44. The Colonists, as they were soon called, made their way to Earth, took the human body form, mated with the females and populated the earth with Colonist DNA. The earthly descendants will either manifest good or bad qualities; the savior warriors are part of the elite military from planet SR44, commissioned to remove the Colonists from Earth including the descendants with bad DNA. The beings on planet SR44 are incorporeal bodies of mist and smoke, each bearing a different color, but in their corporeal bodies on Earth, their eyes will glow their familiar- planet SR44 color each evening. Their mission has yet to be completed; their planet has been destroyed; and a new group of SR44 men and women have arrived in search of the original six saviors. Told from dual third person perspectives (Axel and Eden) AXEL focuses on the forbidden relationship between Axel and Eden-a relationship forbidden by the man Eden recently learned was her father. Hudson and the rest of the SR44 males donât trust Axel-he is dark, brooding, and silent, and not without some demons that are slowly destroying whatâs left of his mind.

My only hope lies with Cesar, my pirate lover. But can he buy me out of slavery if the Cats won't sell? Cesar did his best to negotiate my sale, to buy me out of service as concubine to Captain Cronin of the Gran. The Captain refuses to bargain. Once more, I'm forced across the galaxy, to the opulent palace of the Emperor, kneeling to serve the sexual demands of an alien Cat. In my absence, the adolescent Prince has reached maturity, and now he wants me for his own, to be his mate - over the Captain's dead body. Will I ever be freed of these damned Cats and their perverse desires? Members Reviews: Alien cats, space pirates and a gentically engineered human... what could go wrong? This is Travis Luedke's forth stop in his incredible space opera. Angel 6.0: Pursuit and the stakes are higher and freedom so much further away for Angel. But more than anything she just wants to be back in the arms of Cesar, but nothing happens the way we want it to, especially if the Gran are involved. These damn cat creatures have been nothing but a nightmare for Angel and she is completely at their mercy. She is still in the Captain's control and wants nothing to do with him. But what Angel is willing to risk could ultimate be her death. That may be preferred at some point. She doesn't want to continue to go along with the Captain, but the Captain isn't willing to budge on the issue. He wants to keep her regardless of the cost. Oh, Angel will have her say in it, even if it is to protect the Emperor's son. It is a risk she is willing to take and maybe one day, she will eventually end up in the arms of the man she loves. Of course Travis Luedke wouldn't make it that simple. Where's the adventure in that? Another time and in another space, Angel is struggling with so much more. She is not just the Captain's concubine. She is now in the eyes of the Emperor's son and her heart is with a pirate... Travis once again spins everything out of control in space and just makes getting to the destination so much trouble. But it is worth the painstaking journey. The not knowing has its advantages... but it keeps me on the edge of my seat wanting more. Travis takes his crazy alien cats and shows two very different sides to them. There is the evil that we see in the Captain and the hope we see with the Emperor and his family. But the one place we hope Angel ends up in is the furthest place in the spaces, in the arms of a pirate. This is a tangled web of the imagination and I am hopelessly captivated by each new episode! Another fabulous read by Travis Luedke. Keep wanting more and more This was another great entry in the life of a girl who cannot seem to catch a break no matter what her situation. The story continues to build on itself bringing more and more complexity to the characters and to the world that they are living in. The tone can be fun and light at times making you laugh or just smile,it can then become dark, or very very hot. I like the way it flows from situation to situation with surprises laid out as things progress. Angel is less than thrilled to be returning to Gran space, though she is happy to see her royal friends on her return.

After all, there doesn't seem to be anything on this planet worth saving. After Voland and the rest of the Orbas split up to go their separate ways, he hopes to lay low and find a way back home after he's sure that Palzu will take a better liking to Earth. However, he hadn't expected to find a human woman, Felicity, asking for his help. With each day he spends with her, he finds that she's beginning to grow on him. Sure, the Earth may not be worth saving, but she seems to be... Voland is the third book in the Warriors of Orba series, following the Orba warriors and the human women that love them. Each audiobook in this science fiction series can be listened to as standalones. There are no cliffhangers, no cheating, and a guaranteed happy ending! Members Reviews: Good read I would recommend this book to anyone who loves alien romances. I enjoyed the story in this book .Just enough sensuality to hold your interest without causing a gag reflex. I am looking forward to reading the next installment. Good book Third book in series. I enjoyed reading this book, it has a great storyline. Can't wait for more books from this author. "This is a Unique and Exciting Alien Romance" The storyline is exciting right from the beginning. The characters are awesome and unique. Voland is a young Orbanian. There is about to be an up rising on his planet. His people are tricked into following an evil ruler Palzu. Palzu promises the people freedom only Voland did not not know at what cost plus it was a lie!. So Voland sneaks off the army base. He comes across a group of fellow Orbaians who wish to escape the planet so he helps them. The group crashes on earth there Benzen one of the group meets a human named Alison who helps them. Then Voland gets word that Palzu is sending troops after them!. So he suggests they split up the group do not know Voland had been one of Palzu's soldiers!. While traveling Voland meets Felicity. Felicity has run away from an abusive family. She does not have much money so she decides to try her hand at prostitution lol. When she meets Voland misunderstandings her when she asks if he wants a good time lol. As Voland has no money!. You will so love this funny, exciting, sweet, steamy hot unique Alien romance!. It is a five star plus book!!. the sexy scenes, I found those to be entertaining Voland is the third book in the Warriors of Orba series. It is a short story with somewhat of a cliffhanger, even though I do not recommend reading as a standalone, I can say that you need to read the first one first, than it does not matter if you read the second or third in order. This series has a different take on an alien and human relationships,and the sexy scenes, I found those to be entertaining . I did have some trouble with the relationship, I felt the heroine was a little too forgiving and easy in their relationship. I got the impression she can be strong and well, weak at the same time. I do like that she didnât give up too easy on Volandâs strangeness and fought for what she was thinking is hers. Voland is a different kind of male; he is not alpha but not soft all around. I guess you would have to read the book to understand what it is Iâm saying.

Bionic Outlaw's Baby Audiobook by Zara Zenia

Until they turned me into a machine and wanted to use me as a weapon. I found love. But as usual, it was time for me to run. Until she found me and told me the impossible. That she was carrying my baby. Dana: He worked for my dad. But then he got fired because I loved him. He's the only one I've ever been with. But then I found out I'm carrying his baby. He doesn't even know yet. I need to find him. My dad wants me to get an abortion. Who would marry a single mom? What am I going to do? Bionic Outlaw's Baby is a sci-fi secret baby romance novel. There is no cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed happy ending! Members Reviews: Weird but interesting So this is the first book for me by this author. Overall I found the storyline to be a little weird but interesting. I'm sure I'm in the minority but certain parts just didn't work for me. CONTAINS SPOILERS-- Here's why so don't continue reading my review if you don't want to know details. Like Dana's parents were harsh a**h****s who kicked her out when they found out she was pregnant. Plus her dad treated her like crap and never paid her well when she worked for him. But yet all things were forgiven and hunky dory in the end with her relationship with them. I find that hard to believe after the way it was emphasized on their treatment of her. Or like when she went to stay with Elijah after finding him. She stated she was basically broke and couldn't afford to stay at a motel but a few days. Really? How much does gas, a motel room and food cost? She found him almost immediately once she left home. Where did the $5.000 her parents gave her to leave by a certain date go? Or the money she supposedly had saved working and could rent a one bedroom apartment for a month along with enough for food and basic expenses for about six months? With that being said that's part of why it just didn't flow for me. Another fun novel by Sara Zenia!! I received an ARC for an honest review. This was an interesting story. I find it funny that some reviewers think a biopic man is far-fetched. In the 1960s, there was a TV show called the Six Million Dollar Man who was biopic. It's probably on TVLand or Netflix now. So I contained it farfetched, I find it appalling that The Organization was then going to use these rebuilt soldiers as 'cannon' fodder for a host of different weapons. Bad government! So I'm glad Elijah escaped and met Dana. Whether it made him remember his humanity or not is up to the reader, so you need to read the book. It's interesting, fun, and sexy. There's some twists you don't expect which keep you on your toes! Made the Grade: Bionic Outlaw's Baby by Zara Zenia 3 out of 5 stars! Elijah was a lifer in the Army, who grew up in foster care, so when a mission turns him up as dead he understands that no one will be out there really missing him. What surprises him is that he awakes to find that the doctors revived him, yet they did so in a way that irrevocably changed him into a bionic man. Though he really doesnât mind the tests the doctors do on him and likes his living arrangement, for the most part, after a fellow âtest subjectâ befriends him they learn that they are more like prisoners than anything else.

Can she do what is necessary to stop a galactic war that threatens everyone she loves? Born of illegal genetic engineering, Angel is not quite human. She's never known her place in the universe. Stolen by the Gran, a fierce race of warrior Cats, she survived enslavement as a concubine. Beloved by the Prince, he mated her, removed her slave collar and declared her Princess of the Empire of the Gran - despite her love for the pirate Cesar. Now Angel is thrust into the center of galactic war and forced to choose sides between humanity and her surrogate family of Cats. Facing war and the loss of her loved ones, Angel is appointed Emissary to the Emperor. The fate of both species depends on her to bridge the gap between the corrupt politicians of Earthside and greedy, war-mongering Cats. Angel 6.0: Emissary, is the final episode of a space opera romance series from NYT and USA Today best-seller Travis Luedke. Members Reviews: Wham Bang Thank You Mam !!!!! What an ending, DO NOT PASS THIS UP OMG author Travis Luedke's final book in his Angel 6.0 series, Emissary, it's filled with surprise after surprise. It's jam packed with the same violent action and sex you can expect from a Luedke's novel, butttt he does it, in my opinion, differently. I was surprised at how it started but believe me that changed quickly; he had to build more background for what was to come. Then Wham, Bang towards the end I was yelling at him (Luedke that is)how could he do that to us NO,NO,NO. That's what happens when you jump to conclusions. I'm going to miss Angel, and her band of conventional and unconventional lovers, her strength, her mad skills, even her love of pain. As a fan I can only hope that one day she'll surprise us and show up, you know like a cameo in a movie. I don't like doing spoilers so I can only hope I didn't over do it, because I've said a lot more than I usually do. Author Luedke has some mad, crazy skills in his story telling and I would recommend this and all the Angel 6.0 books to those that love SciFi with a delicious touch of the erotica and the blood and guts of a really good thriller. By Angel, I'll see you in my re-reads. Did not see it coming I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review. This has been a fun ride with a girl who turns out to be more human than those around her. Even with the last book ending on an exciting note, this one starts a little less dramatically. Things were a little slow for me to start up with but picked up quickly and moved us into the action I had been anticipating. The characters were even more vivid here as things started to come to a head for both humans and cats. The language was what I expected from this group of characters including the cats who seemed to have a very human temperament at times. The world they inhabited could be now or a hundred years from now because the human way of thinking does not seem to have changed from the beginning of time. Angel has had a hard time since she was taken by the Gran and used as a concubine from Nugene Station. But things had started to get better with the Emperor's son taking such a liking to her that he wished to keep her as his mate, and having Cesar actually come for her and try to free her.

He would never be the same! The story of Pygmalion for the 21st century! Members Reviews: Lonely Magnolia A very interesting short story, with some unexpected twists at the end. Well written, interesting story, short but interesting This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review. This was a short but interesting take on how disconnected and isolated society has become with the Internet and social media replacing basic human interaction. It's a good story, but I was expecting more What does a retired software guru do in lonely retirement? Return to software to find his souldmate of course! This is my third listen from John Isaac Jones since the amazing "Going Home". I've come to expect a bit of a twist to everything, so while this story was enjoyable for what it was, I was a bit disappointed to find that it literally was, just what it was. There was no surprise or twist at the end. Aside from that, it is a fairly enjoyable ironic tale, perhaps more along the lines of "Tembo Makaburi". I did feel a few characters acted a bit irrationally toward the end, but it is a short tale, so it's possible I just had the wrong "read" of them. Tom Zainea did an excellent job narrating! This book was provided by the author for review purposes. Irony is strong! Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Yes! I thoroughly enjoyed the book it held my attention from start to finish. What was one of the most memorable moments of Lonely Magnolia? The anticipated meeting with Sadie. Have you listened to any of Tom Zaineas other performances before? How does this one compare? No, but I loved his voice and way of narrating. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The ending wasn't expected, but it made me aware of how things play out in life. Karma is very much alive and kicking. Any additional comments? This book was given to me to listen and give an unbiased review. Heartbreaking Oh my goodness, this was not what I was expecting. It's well written and the lead characters are fascinating and the idea behind the story is really interesting and thought provoking. The outcome was not what I was expecting and it was surprisingly emotionally engaging. The narrator did a good job with a challenging story to narrate. The chat sessions cannot have been easy. I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

Leo Narrator: Catherine Edwards Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 02-17-17 Publisher: Narrative Land Publishing Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: When a fairy tale ends up in a bloodbath, virtue rises. Dinah isn't just a private investigator, she solves unthinkable mysteries in the multiverse and has never lost a case until her best friend becomes a victim in a series of mass murders. Someone is toying with the human race and sending threats across the cosmos. Arik, an Oxford professor in mythology, holds the key to several secrets in the multiverse. When Dinah travels to Earth to seek help from him, they discover one of the secrets he knows could make him the next victim. As the danger increases, so does their mutual attraction. But fate might have something else in store for them in a twist of a fairy tale. Dark Solar is an urban fantasy trilogy, full of action, magic, surprises, science, and romance. Members Reviews: This book simply works beautifully DN Leo's Multiverse really is an ideal place to place an abundance of stories, and she has taken full advantage of this. Luckily she's somehow managed to do so in a way that's consistently well-written and very very enjoyable. That's once again the case with this new Multiverse series, of which Wolfsbane is the second novel. A great mashup of sci fi, adventure, mystery and romance, this book simply works beautifully. DN Leo really has a great set of leading characters in Dinah and Arik and it was a real pleasure seeing how they played off of each other and interacted in the broader Multiverse that she has created. For those who have been reading other books set in the Multiverse it's also lots of fun seeing favorite characters cross over into this series (for me, as with many, Ciaran & Madeline are particular favorites so it's great having them here). Highly recommended. One note though: while this book and series can indeed stand alone wonderfully, reading other Multiverse books will definitely increase your enjoyment of this series by adding wonderful background / depth to the Multiverse and key characters. I read DN Leo's Shade of Mind series and her Mindscape 1, 2 &3 books before starting this series, and I'd definitely recommend that route. Really enjoyed looking forward to next book Dinah and Arik are back, working more as a team now to save Earths population from our evil characters after Ciran and Arik had been challenged to a âhologameâ. It does not really seem to play out as an actual game, but they are encountering trouble everywhere they go as they do what they think they must do. With the help of technology, smarts and some magic they are hoping to win the game. Leo has a lot of characters, good, bad and not sure yet and she does a good job of keeping them real and is able to flow well back and forth as we follow multiple story line threads. It continues to be a fast pace story and she keeps you continually engaged to try and figure out what is going on. There are lots of twists and turns so it is hard to make any guesses as to what it is going to happen next. Another one you just do not want to put down and I cannot wait to read the next book. I received this book for free and voluntarily reviewed. Dang it I want to read the next one now I'm so hooked on this series. The story of Arik and Dinah continues with Cirian and Madeline and time travel. This one had some more surprises and I wasn't expecting the ending at all.

Clarke, monstre sacré de la SF, pendant des décennies. Avec L'Œil du Temps et Tempête solaire, les deux premiers volumes de la trilogie de L'Odyssée du Temps, Clarke et Stephen Baxter ont imaginé un futur proche dans lequel les Premiers-Nés tentent d'arrêter l'avancée de la civilisation humaine en employant une technologie indiscernable de la magie (en vertu de la célèbre troisième loi de Clarke). Cette fois, ils ont envoyé une "bombe quantique" vers la Terre, un instrument que les scientifiques humains peinent à comprendre, impossible à stopper ou à détruire -et qui anéantira le monde. La quête de réponses désespérée de Bisesa l'envoie d'abord sur Mars puis sur Mir, elle-même menacée de destruction. L'extinction semble inévitable...

Odium II Audiobook by Claire C. Riley

Riley Narrator: Jennifer Reilly Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 46 mins Language: English Release date: 01-30-15 Publisher: Claire C Riley Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 40 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Fortune favors.... the dead! Some secrets are too horrific to ever be forgiven, and some people should never be trusted. Tortured, starved, and on the run, Nina thinks she's faced the worst that mankind has to offer, but she's wrong. She may have survived this long, but she hasn't come out of it unscathed, and there's worse to come. Nina's trusty Doc Martens are showing signs of the zombie apocalypse, and she isn't faring much better. With her snarky attitude guaranteed to get her in trouble, Nina needs to forgive the past, to live once more in the present, and learn that sometimes she needs to place her trust in other people. Because when people are faced with the end of times, they'll do anything to survive. Members Reviews: Attitude and Doc Martins will get you pretty far.. Odium 2 picks right up pretty close to where Odium 1 left off. You miss most of the torture that Nina went through, but you do get some snippets of it. And it is bad. Really bad. Any normal person would be curled up in a ball sucking their thumb if they had to go through what she did. Still she goes on. And keeps her snarky attitude. Nina is one of my favorite hot headed, stubborn, eye rolling heroines. Even if I do occasionally want to stop and shake the heck out of her. It makes her that much more realistic. Book two proves to be much darker than the first one. You meet some great characters along the way, and watch them all get into trouble trying to find someplace safe. Jennifer Reilly is the voice of Nina. She reads her perfectly. When I read Odium Origins part 2 I read it with her voice in my mind. I cant wait to see what happens in the next installment of Odium, and what trouble Nina will manage to get into. Thanks to the holy crap revelation at the end, I will be stalking Claire until it is released. Audiobook purchased by reviewer. Great Sequel to First Book What made the experience of listening to Odium II the most enjoyable? I love the narration, very pleasant and easy to listen to, good pace, nice voice and a variety of "voices" to keep it fresh, some were really fun to listen to as well. I am a big fan of Odium so I've been waiting for the sequel! Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? It was good, fun read. Very fast paced, action packed. I enjoyed it very much. A couple of unique and weird concepts I haven't seen before in zombie plots. Curious to see where this goes. Any additional comments? I would definitely recommend to start with the first Odium book which was really good. The first book has a little more character development and gives you a real sense of who Nina, Mikey and Emily are. The second book was good as a sequel, as it moves very, very fast. MOST annoying character EVER This pretty much sums it up............. Nina won't tell Mikey something that happened on a scavenging run, He gets angry because she doesn't trust him enough to tell him what is bothering her...........Nina gets mad at him & slaps him for not "just trusting her". oh good grief! She is the whiniest, bitchiest, most selfish heroine I've ran across yet. If she was a bada$$ I could see the author justifying it. But she's not. It would be a pretty good story if there was another lead character. Picks up where last book left off.

Bailey Narrator: Kristin James Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 10-08-15 Publisher: Deborah A. Bailey Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Book two of the Hathor Legacy series On the planet, Hathor, an old threat re-emerges that may destroy the fragile alliance between the Guardians and Novacorp. When Nadira is called to investigate a rash of fires throughout the city, she discovers the Deshtu, another group with PSI powers who have been purposely kept in the shadows. Working to uncover the source of the fires, Nadira learns the brutal truth about the origin of the Guardians. The Guardian Elders have plans to make Nadira more powerful, and she may be forced to sever her psychic connection to Jonathan Keel. When an unexpected ally gives Jonathan information about the Deshtu that connects them to the fires, he becomes a convenient scapegoat for the opposing factions. Nadira puts her life on the line to solve the crime, while the Elders make their move to remove Jonathan from her life forever. As time runs out, the Guardians prepare for a clash with Novacorp that could plunge the planet into chaos, and a final betrayal forces Nadira to risk everything to save herself and Hathor. Members Reviews: Something is off in the Guardian system. Would you consider the audio edition of Hathor Legacy to be better than the print version? I didn't read the print version, but the audio edition brings the book into a new dimension as the characters are vocalized as individuals with personalities of their own. To me, this steps a written book up to the next level. What was one of the most memorable moments of Hathor Legacy? Something that sticks with me throughout the book is the relationship of Nadira and Jonathan. No matter what others tell them, they stand strong. There is romance present, but it's not the center of the story. It's a lovely addition to the story and shows the beautiful connection our couple has. Even though I worry of Nadira and Jonathan's relationship, Nadira and Jonathan are adamant they are together. I'm so glad for this unwavering believe in them. There is so much going on in the world around them that it is nice to see a solid feel between them. They trust in each other and always give each other the open to make their own decision on if they stay or not, but that they both love each other is always there and we know the choice if it needs to be made. What does Kristin James bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Kristin, once again, displays why she is one of my favorite voices in narrating stories. She becomes the story and the characters. She starts with emotion in her voice for the opening scene and throughout the book. She easily performs accents to differentiate the woman and men speaking. Each has their own personality in voice, attitude, tone, and presentation. By doing this I can see the character as Kristin's presentation is paired with Deborah's words. This makes it so easy to dive into a new audio book and not get lost. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Absolutely! I was drawn to the story by voice and words and wanted to stay with it until I was done. Any additional comments? This book ranks among the top of the top. For the story that's written and the depth of the world with a touch of romance, belief in others, action, worry, and the narration. I could go on and on about the written story along with narration here.

Oberhauser Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 11 mins Language: English Release date: 03-10-17 Publisher: Clean Teen Publishing Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Daisy Kirkwood has only just escaped her small-town life and run away to New York City, the land of last-minute secret gigs at famous musical venues, when she's kidnapped by aliens. Unfortunately, no one ever writes about how to handle alien abduction in those fancy NYC guidebooks. Griffin and Dev are supermassively sexy aliens from a politically and environmentally troubled planet who arrive on Earth with very little knowledge about human ways other than what they learned from a wayward "E! News" signal. Their mission is to pretend to be the most influential people on the planet - English pop stars, of course! - and gain the help of a powerful secret society. Upon arriving, they abduct Daisy Kirkwood, a nerdy young woman who loves music but could seriously use a bit of help in the love-life department. Though Griffin and Daisy initially squabble, neither can deny the intergalactic sparks whenever they're too close to each other. Together, they must face murderous aliens, cultural misunderstandings, bad backup musicians, and the dark side of fame and the media, all set against a tight deadline. Part High Fidelity, part Bridget Jones' Diary, part Doctor Who, Dating an Alien Pop Star is a sexy romantic comedy. Members Reviews: great story with lots of humour. not expected.
a great light hearted scfi read with a different and enjoyable spin compared to most stories of this genre.

I only hope that the author produces the rest of the story soon, as the first two books have been out for quite a while and stop on a cliffhanger. The narration was well done. Im going to listen to the second book now.

But when she leaves on another routine delivery and meets Ronan, a handsome stranger with an alien-entangled past, life goes from complicated to perilous. He warns that shes been the unwitting victim of an alien experiment gone wrong and sets out to help her escape looming abduction, and maybe win her heart. Members Reviews: Understanding the stars What did you love best about Understanding the Stars? The character was written well, This audiobook had a lot of action and so many twists and turns that it kept me interested and wanting to find out what was going to happen next. It's ok. I have to say that this had the potential to be very good, but I felt it lacked debt and character development. I felt like the pacing was fast but the overall story was way too fast and had no flesh on it. I didn't connect with the characters, nor the story. I felt like Alex was too perfect and absolutely hated that she took everything that was happening and didn't question it or didn't freak out! I mean if I found out that I was being monitored 24/7 by an alien race I think i would have freaked!! It was unrealistic and after that I just couldn't connect with her. Lori Prince was OK. She had a good voice for Alex but she didn't really differentiate any of the other characters. Plus her voice for the evil aliens was a little hard to listen to. I still enjoyed listening to her and know she will become better with practice. I was voluntarily provided this audiobook for free from the author, narrator, or publisher. This in no way affected nor influenced my thoughts. Good sci-fi alien adventure tale Any additional comments? I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Xela Culletto. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it. Understanding the Stars is a sci-fi YA adventure, where our main character is literally on the run from aliens. Due to circumstances beyond her control and because an alien species selected her as one of their test subjects, another alien species wants to snatch her and cut some tech out of her head. Fun times. Not. Alex is a spunky teen who's about to graduate high school when her life gets super scary super fast. Her life isn't all happy sunshine and rainbows with a father dying of the big C and her in danger of having her head cut open. But she doesn't hide from her troubles and looks danger right in the face (er, tentacles?) and stands up for herself and others around her. That's what makes Alex a character you can really get behind and root for. The plot is fast-paced and there is even a bit of a romance, though not super developed in light of all the running from aliens. I kind of liked our male character, but the focus was definitely on Alex so I can't say I got to know Ronan that well. The audio narration was excellent. I really appreciated all the creepy sounding voices for the aliens, which really upped their scary and grossness factor. I liked the intonations and how Alex really did sound like a teenage girl with the sentences that sound like a question and abrupt replies.

Interstellar Rescue "conductor" Rayna Carver is deep undercover on a slave ship bound for an isolated region of space when the ship is attacked by pirates. Her liberator is Captain Sam Murphy, a man known in the spacer bars to love only profit, adventure and women. But Murphy hates a few things, too, chief among them slavers. Will it be enough to gain his help for Rayna's mission - ferreting out two spies bent on sabotaging an arms factory to turn the tide in an alien civil war? Members Reviews: Very satisfying sci-fi romance! I received this audiobook for free in exchange for a voluntary and honest review. I've been antsy without new books from my favorite SFR author, Linnea Sinclair. I stumbled on this book, and my worries are over. Fools Rush In was the first I've read by this author, but the book stands alone nicely, even without having read the rest of the series. The world-building was solid, again, even without the first two books, but not too heavy-handed. Rayna and Sam were strong characters with a passionate determination to do what each thinks is right. Their romance was very much a part of the story, balanced smoothly with a fast-paced sci-fi adventure. The plot moves quickly, but with an expert handling of plot threads and story elements. The audio added a lot to the story. The narrator was very natural, and her voice, from the first moment, really defined Rayna for me. I will be purchasing the first two books in the series, and I hope you enjoy Fools Rush In as much as I did. Fast-paced and exciting! Excellent story! Lots of action, humor, and romance. Excellent narrator as well, she really brings the characters to life. I was freely gifted a copy of this audiobook by the author in exchange for an honest review. Entertaining This was an enjoyable listen with excellent narration. The story had plenty of action and some well written sex scenes. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. Gripping, suspenseful , romantic, fun Loved this book, the third in Donna Frelick's Interstellar Rescue Series. The characters are very appealing, the chemistry between them strong, and the story is action packed from beginning to end. A must read, or a must listen, since it is an audio book. The narrator really captured the essence of each character. She brought the story to life, varying the intonation of her voice to match the emotion of the moment. I look forward to hearing her again. Best performance If you could sum up Fools Rush In in three words, what would they be? Action packed romance! Any additional comments? This was probably the best audiobook performance I've listened to. So many characters and the narrator was spot on with all of them. It has made me go back and listen to the first two books in this series as this book is a "prequel" to them. I want to make sure I didn't miss any details!

There is food, shelter and jobs for everyone. The one requirement is to follow the rules without question, including the government's match in marriage and "The Day of the Chosen", a lottery that randomly selects families to conceive children as natural means hasn't existed in generations. Following her 18th birthday, Olivia Parker accepts her requirement to marry her childhood best friend, Joshua Warren, and is eager to start her work assignment and new life when it all comes abruptly to an end as she's arrested and thrown in prison. The only crime committed, her existence. Olivia is unlike the rest of the world born not from "The Day of the Chosen." The truth haunts the government and puts her life in grave danger as one simple fact would destroy the perfect system. With Joshua's help, Olivia breaks free of prison and is forced on the run. Together they set out to find the promised rebel town in search of a new home and new life together. Their situation seems less than promising as they reach the town of Haven. New rules and customs must be adhered to in order to stay. Leaving would mean most certain death in the large expanse of the Gravelands. Times is running out as the government mounts an attack to destroy Olivia and bury her secret with her. Thrown into a world unlike their own, they must quickly adapt to survive. Members Reviews: Don't read if you can't finish series Loved it but now I have to finish the series. At first I was afraid it was another Hunger Games but it quickly showed it wasn't. It is a love story in the future world with rebels fighting the governments control but other then that it is different. I know I'm hooked and handing it to my twelve year old to listen to also. The reader was awesome ....enjoy Could not finish The voice acting is terrible. Im not sure if its the cadence or just the tone of her voice that was grating me but I just couldnt push through this one. The actual storyline/ plot of the book comes across as unpolished or in need of a really good editor. To play devils advocate with myself, perhaps Ive just gotten too old to identify with a teenager, but I think ill push through the text version on my own. Worst part is that ive held onto this one for a while so I doubt I can return it.

For listeners 18 and older. Members Reviews: Loved Kratos. I really liked this story a lot. Ashley West is swiftly becoming a favorite author of mine. This story was full and what I liked most about it is the not only the H and h, but the supporting characters as well. She gives them full personalities and it's easy to like them and connect with them as you read the story. Not a lot of authors do that. The only thing that I have to say that I didn't like about the story was the ending. Although I do know there are relationships that are like that, it's not something that I would like, nor is it something that I like as a HEA ending. Not everyone is the same though and everyone has their personal tastes. But I like to have a true HEA ending in the stories that I read. I am giving it 5 stars even though I didn't care for the ending because of the whole development of the story and the characters. It was a pleasure to read. The first several chapters, her transitions from one event to another were hard to distinguish. One minute the mom is talking to her kids and the next it's been 6 years later without making a very clear distinction of where the change would be. That was done, as I said for the first several chapters, which made it kind of confusing each time, but after the first several chapters, that stopped. Very few misspellings or mistakes and that is always nice. This was an ARC book provided to me for a review, but I liked it so much that I went ahead and bought a copy from Amazon. Very weird The story begins by jumping back and forth between viewpoints and time. We meet Kirsten, who is invisible to her family and later her friends. We see Kratos, a mercenary and his companions being mercenaries. The writing is very elementary and drags on with unimportant uninteresting filler. Kratos Defender Of Earth This was the first book in the series that had be begging for more. Can't wait to see if there are more of this one as they are a terrific series and each guy has their own way of dealing with things. Just terrific.

They either decide to be together or destroy any chance they may have at happiness. Will they accept fate's decision or ignore all the signs that brought them together? Members Reviews: Delightful! I enjoyed slipping back in time to the cat and mouse of old fashioned romance. I think I'm in love with Jack too. I pictured this story on TV like Jane Austin's books to movie script! Good story This book was hot and steamy in an old timely way I really like it and wanted more:) Love this author! Big fan of Dawn Brower here! With this series, Ive only listened to (audiobooks) books 5 and 6. On that note, both could have been stand-alone. I liked that because Elizabeths mother had been from the future (went to the past) she was able to raise her daughter differently than what was typical of this time period. I also liked the twist between Jack and Elizabeth. When he believes that the two are related, I was curious as to how Ms. Brower would turn their relationship into something positive considering the two cared about each other but, had they been related, in an inappropriate way. The narrator, whom I've never listened to, did a good job. Although there were some characters (the butler comes to mind) who had the same voice as the narrating one, she was able to provide a different voice for each character. In the end, Im always on the lookout for more stories by Dawn Brower. Shes a great writer! Fun Pirate Time Travel I enjoyed this listen very much. It is a unique concept of a time traveling pirate set in historical times. The cat and mouse game they played was fun. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator. Great This a great story. Wonderful narration. I would highly recommend this book. Excellent storyline that keeps you interested the entire time

Members Reviews: Another era....Another series from M.L. Gardner Leaving the door open for sequels yet to be written, Gardner tells the story of an era yet to occur. She has perfected the skill for drawing the reader into the story, offering page after page of eagerness to see what's next. This reader has enjoyed each story she has written; and "Sayan Knights" is no exception. There is no slow beginning. No failure to relate to her characters. No boredom with the plot. Pick up an ML Gardner book, and I assure you that you will be hooked on her work. Now, on to the story.... Another era.....descendants of the old world work to survive and prosper in a new world dominated by "the city". You will find romance, combat, envy, developing relationships....and wisdom. Gardner never simply ends a story. She always leaves the door open for more to come.... The only problem with Ms. Gardner's books is that ... The only problem with Ms. Gardner's books is that they leave you wanting more and more. Strong characters, and plot. Worthy of the read and your time, this book will entrap you in another world and keep you there. Couldn't Put It Down This is an engaging story that has a steady pace of action and drama. I enjoyed both the world building and character development. The tales revolves around two brothers and a new woman that joins the resistance movement. We see the motivations and desires of all three major players as they relate to each other and the community. I enjoyed how the author created lots of action using very little fighting, which is refreshing even if I normally prefer âblood and guts fights.â Rather than give away plot points and spoilers, I want to encourage you to just jump in and read the book. It was a complete ending that opens up sequels. The beginning of a great adventure! I just read this story while away on holiday. It was an awesome retreat into a world of adventure and adversity. The main characters are engaging and human. And I appreciated that! Can't wait to see what's next in this series! Can't wait for the next one I devoured the 1929 series (If you haven't read it, you should) so I was excited to see a new book by M. L. Gardner. This new series didn't disappoint.

Between bouts of babysitting a nine-year-old alien with a sometimes-dangerous crush on her, Jet spends her days training for the Rings, the televised Nirreth obsession that involves watching humans navigate perilous courses filled with both real and virtual enemies. As Jet is the first female human ever to run in the Rings, everyone fully expects her to die in the first round... or at the very least, to do so poorly that the judges, the infamous Rings Board, will kick her out even if she survives. Then again, according to Richter, the leader of the human rebels, Jet might not make it to the Rings at all. He tells Jet that first she has to convince the Nirreth elite that she's docile enough to be trusted, or she won't make it long enough to compete. In order to do that, Jet has to become a pet of one of the Nirreth themselves, which usually involves not only sharing that Nirreth's bed, but being stung by their venom on a regular basis. When Laksri, the leader of the Nirreth rebels and Richter's military and strategic partner, offers to take that role, Jet's relationship with the Nirreth becomes more complicated than she could ever have imagined.

White kinetic fabric dress, the latest grav-heels, and a sea of her loved ones all blinking away tears of joy. But this wasn't a dream: it was a nightmare. Instead of her father giving her hand in marriage, he's lost it in a game of poker to the galactic war criminal Strathmore. But if fate had dealt her a bad hand, it was time to flip the damned table and run. Captain Leo Ingram. Smuggler. Bear Shifter. Lover. Or at least that's what his business card said. Not that the mewling merchant in front of him cared about any of that. This was a quick hand-off, merchandise for credits. Then he and his crew would be back aboard the Breakwater and off to the nearest trade port to drink and piss their ill-gotten gains away. But before they could finish the deal, a young woman stumbled out of the underbrush into their illicit business deal. Was that a wedding dress? Members Reviews: Sarcastic Annie and the Space Pirate Bear Shifters "Breakwater: Leo" was a surprise to me after reading many of Ms Fanning's recent non sci-fi bear shifter stories. Annie is a hysterically funny, strong, witty, and sarcastic young woman who has had everything go wrong, but is willing to fight her way to freedom. Despite her extreme annoyance at her father for his failings and getting her kidnapped, she still wants him to be safe from harm. Annie's run in with Leo and his team of space pirate bear shifters is interesting. The story is very short with limited character development, but it makes a fun, quick read during a break. Lots of fun It's annie's wedding day and boy was it is a nightmare. Not that things were going wrong, nope it was that her father sold her to a terrible space warlord. Getting off the ship and running for her life was easier compared to staying free. Captain Leo of the Breakwater took one look at the women running out of the woods and knew he had knew if he didn't help her he would regret it for the rest of his life. Oh my two favorite things shifters and space! This is a short and fast pace story with lots of fun. Shifter and syfy you can't go wrong. Breakwater Leo I was given this arc for a fair review. what a great story. Annie was sold to the pirate Strathmore who is very powerful ,but she escapes and runs into another pirate Leo who will save her and her heart . But can he keep her safe from Strathmore who has put out a large bounty for them . A well written exciting story. Breakwater: Leo (BBW Bad Boy Space Bear Shifter... Becca Fanning Book one in the Star Bears Series. Annie Heathcoatâs Father lost her in a game of poker so she ran and came upon a illicit deal being made by Breakwater spaceshipâs owner Captain Leo Ingram a smuggler and bear shifter. Will Annie be safe with Leo as she escapes from the man her father lost her to? What happens? About thirty hours of Becca Fanning stories I had not expected an extensive collection of stories, but that's what this is. There are several collections of were stories that link together within the collection. If you like shifter stories, this is a great collection. Some of the stories are so unusual, they are unlike anything I have read before. The author has a great imagination. I only wish I had realized that the stories inter-connected, they were not necessarily in order.

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: In Book 2 of the series The Two Moons of Rehnor, Senya has been exiled back to the Mother Planet of Rozari. While there, he begins to understand what his real tasks are, why he has been sent there,and what he must do in the coming years. In the meantime, Lt. Cmdr Katie Golden of the Allied Spaceforce suffers a dangerous brain injury while saving her ship from destruction. She is sent to Rozari for the cure, only to wake up and discover that Senya was not a childhood hallucination after all. Now she must make a decision between the career she has chosen and a normal life or the incredible journey that Senya is bound to take her on. Members Reviews: My Enemy's Son, Bk. 2 of The Two Moons of Rehnor series, the story continues. I got hooked on this series after reading the first book. A little tongue in cheek, a little comic book adventures, heroes, villains, and Prince and Princesses, what can be wrong. Good story telling, enough humor to lighten up the darkness, and just a great sci-fi adventure with characters to both love and hate. They must be read in sequence or will make little sense to the readers. My only downside, is as the series continues I am finding too many misprints, editing issues, almost to the point of distraction. I have recently started Book 10 and am still hooked however. Mesmerizing This book is even more fascinating than the first. Senya has reached an understanding of his purpose. He realizes that he needs to accept his destiny and plunges into a controlled and determined plan of action. He transforms the planet Rozari from a thousand year old nuclear wasteland into an Arizona style vacation land and research center. There is more development of Katie's character. She is an ambitious officer in the Planetary Alliance "space navy", and has been promoted to the rank of commander. All seems well in her life, until she is kidnapped while on shore leave at a space base. Then her life gets so intermeshed with intrigue and strange adventures, that it is impossible to put the book down. Many interesting new characters are introduced, and old characters are fleshed out even more. Senya and Katie's lives are intertwined again in an unexpected way. Wonderful story! Unique, Bold, Imaginitive! A totally refreshing view of sci-fi fantasy; blending current culture into the distant future. The character development is unique and leaves you wanting to know more of their stories, and enough sex and violence to not advise allowing small children to read it. Fun and very imaginative. Looking forward to reading the next in the series. I just don't know if it can get better I enjoyed book 1 and really looked forward to book 2. WOW It just keeps getting better. I finished this book on Friday and just can't get enough. I can tell you it was a great read, I can tell you it was surprising, I can tell you how much you will enjoy it but until you pick it up you will not know how impossible it is to put down. Katie and Senya, What a love story and folks I don't read romance. This series will stay with you for a while. I have already started of Blood and Angels and will let you know. It won't take for me to read it because I can't put the damn thing down. Where is 4,5,6,7,8 and 9? My Enemy's Son I enjoyed reading this ook. The storyline was interesting. Character development was good.

When supplies cease to exist, 16-year-old Lucy and her mom leave on a mission to find The Light. The Light is led by the Nobleman; born their prophet, he's always carried that weight alone. Until he discovers Lucy's secret ability to hold light in her hand. Lucy's connection with the Nobleman bares The Light's dark motives, forcing her to decide between love and freedom. Members Reviews: Great beginning to an interesting Triology Where does Flicker rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? This book rates in the top two thirds of books I have listened to. What aspect of Maren McGuires performance would you have changed? Overall I liked her performance, but her intonation was a little flat at times and other times was over the top. The later when she was doing the voices of the smaller children. Her voice did not annoy me, as some others do, and she didn't try too hard to do male voices which can really kill a good performance.. I would give her a solid 3 stars overall. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? There is a scene in the book where one of the characters is sexually attacked. The author does a good job of describing the scene without being too graphic about it, but it still makes you cringe when you hear it. Any additional comments? I think the Author did a very good job with this book. It is probably geared a bit more toward the adolescent "hunger games" crowd, but I am a 40 something year old man and I enjoyed the story quite a bit. There was a romance building section in the middle of the book that grew a bit tiresome for me, but she got back into the action pretty fast after it was over. This is a trilogy and the book ends right in the middle of an important scene, so expect to buy the next one if you like this one and want to find out what happens.

What they find is far from safe and Lucy concludes that they have traded one prison for another. The only bright spot is the Nobleman, a kind of human battery who emits energy and light, the power to run the refuges.

When 18-year-old Mary Haven goes to meet the woman who will be her senior sister-wife in the household of the elder of the traditionally-minded Assembly of the Concord, she feels sure she has received a great honor in being taken as the elder's fourth eon-wife. But Mrs. Jones quickly makes it clear that Mary's fate has darker things in store: after paddling the girl soundly for disobedience, the matron intends to send her to the Hall of Pleasure, to be enjoyed by the frightening Concordist overseer and his henchmen. Mark Abbott and his own wives, Heather and Greta, hear of the plan and resolve to rescue Mary, bringing her into the Abbott household as second eon-wife instead. But though Mark, Heather, and Greta succeed in saving Mary from the Hall of Pleasure, she must undergo a thorough inspection and examination by the elder and the overseer even before the ordeal of her eon-marriage to Mark. When the government of Fidelia colony decides to put a stop to the strange practices of the Concordists, though, can the Abbotts, with Mary under their protection, save their community from the overseer's attempt to bring them all under his oppressive sexual rule? Members Reviews: WHAT ELSE COULD THE PATH TO CONCORDIA MEAN, THAN A FAMILY IN SUCH CONCORD AND HARMONY? I will admit this is a uniquely written sci-fi futuristic story that will take the reader on a journey into the erotic realm of a new world. One where a select few have decided to create a new and secretive society that allows individual people to declare epiphanies and visions from the Teller. The Triple Senate has an elder, Phineas Jones, the overseer, John Stone and the Prester, Mark Abbott. The Book of Concord was created by Phineas Jones and John Stone and proclaimed to the followers as the Tellers for the eternal kingdom and their eternal thrones. They accept the mysteries of dominance and submission and epiphanies and teach the men that they are to use their wives and then take eon-wives and use them, all for their own pleasure. The people of Concord have banished some of the modern ways, technology, clothing, and have a set standard for the clothing, even undergarments of their followers. They keep them sequestered from the world, so they will not tell others about their lifestyle. As I was reading this story, my mind was seeing the people that follow cult leaders and start believing whatever they say as the truth. Even Mark Abbott and his senior wife see how obviously fictional it all was, but have even learned to manipulate the system using their own Book of Concord. The plot of the story shows how easily people can accept the âepiphaniesâ and follow them, and the more the men of the Triple Senate want, then just call it a vision or epiphany from the Teller, using a hypnotic chant, and it becomes the truth and the people willing believe it. The women are submissive, accepting the teachings, knowing husbands will punish for correction and how three ways of using their wives for their pleasure. The women are allowed pleasure if it is granted, but it all revolves around the husbands and their baser desires. Then add multiple wives, because they accept a polyamorous lifestyle.

Tobin Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 18 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Brestille of Aiyrn They've been raiding our planet for generations, but I didn't believe the rumors about twins being bad luck - at least not until the day Gvynette and I were taken. The Terrans snatched us from our home world, brought us to this remote planet, and turned us into guinea pigs, poking and prodding us for their own purposes. I know now that we can never go home. I might have just given up if it hadn't been for the strange new alien I met here. There's something that intrigues me about him. The connection we share is special - that much was clear from the moment we met - or else the scientists are up to more dirty tricks and all of this is just simulated. I don't know who to trust anymore. Derresch of Belor I wasn't supposed to be taken. I should be fighting the Terrans - in a year's time I would have finished my training and been off to war. But now I'm trapped here on this XenoStation with all of the primitive races that are usually the ones being subjected to this kind of inhumane experimentation. I was ready to go down in a blaze of glory, to take as many Terrans with me as I could, but then I met this tough little Aiyurna girl - naïve as you please but strong, defiant even - who made me feel oddly protective. I don't know if I can help her - or if she'll even want me once she finds out what I really am, but she's made me want to go on living, and for now that's enough. In the last chapter you will encounter the biggest twist yet. All the buildup of the previous two chapters will come to a jaw-dropping end. Members Reviews: Not sure I enjoy the Alien / abduction books pretty well. However, i just could not get into this book. This one is quite different from others i have read. This book was about twins getting abducted from another planet, yet they are human,along with others. They are experimented on and then they placed in an area to live out there lives. Just not my type of book. I received this free for an honest review. Not Your Typical Sci-Fi Romance I don't like giving bad reviews, but I have to be honest, this story did not capture or hold my attention. Both the plot, and characters were underdeveloped. When Brestille, her sister, and boyfriend were taken by the Terrans, everyone just gave up, and accepted their fate. All the characters acted meek and submissive. I would like to have seen more conflict or the characters standing up for themselves. After Brestille was released into the enclosure she meets another boy? and forgets all about her boyfriend from her old planet and starts seeing Derresch. Their relationship lacked passion and romance. It felt like we were just following the characters as they do mundane day to day activities. Derresch came across as standoffish, and when he decide he wants to fight, he's taken away and never seen again. After Derresch was taken away, Brestille, starts thinking of her boyfriend from her home planet, and finally starts searching for him? I think the plot would have been more exciting if Brestille's character focused on one boyfriend.

Members Reviews: Very Enjoyable I have never read a book like this before. I enjoyed the characters both human and not. The story was good if not a little short. I very much enjoyed the "Didn't see that coming" plot. I always enjoyed an original story line! The narration was great too. A person is a person, even when not quite Welcome to the late 22nd century where nations as we know them are truly changed, and AI has been incredibly advanced. There is work to be done to make the moon habitable, and Ted is one of the select who is capable. First, he must divorce his wife to save her from problems if he is lost to space. Not an auspicious start. But things get better, more complicated, worse, and then just plain bizarre. Do not expect spoilers. This book, while way too short, is too good for you to miss the author's brilliance. Expect fun, puns, Shakespeare, truly awful characterizations (in a groan and bear it way), sex, and selected shorts at the end. Ian is simply marvelous with his ability to mimic accents, emotions, and dry wit. Hope to hear him paired with this author for lots more fun! I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review Dry Land Any additional comments? I totally enjoyed this book. You are quickly swept up in the fast paced adventure and immediately want to learn more about the fascinating and unique characters. I enjoyed the al "love story" as I was intrigued by the relationship of Ted and Colby..

Title: Hathor Legacy Subtitle: Revelations, Book 3 Author: Deborah A Bailey Narrator: Kristin James Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 59 mins Language: English Release date: 12-22-16 Publisher: Deborah A. Bailey Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: An enemy returns to spark new tensions between the Guardians and Novacorp. In the midst of the crisis, Nadira is given information about her parents that threatens to destroy her relationship to the Guardians and to Jonathan. While Nadira searches for answers, Jonathan is enticed into the hedonistic world of the Novacorp executive class. His entertainment club attracts the elite of Hathor, but his notoriety comes with a price. The worlds of the Guardians and Novacorp are put on a collision course where only one side may come out on top. Nadira is called on to make the ultimate sacrifice to save the legacy of the First Families, the original settlers of Hathor, while Guardians, Kasema, and Deshtu PSI groups are faced with the choice to unite or be brought completely under Novacorp control. Old scores are settled and long-hidden truths are revealed, and at the end Nadira and Jonathan's relationship and their world will never be the same. Members Reviews: Drawn into the characters lives as they fight on. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I was hooked to the story. It was a growing mystery about Nadira's parents and more. There is some connection to them, their disappearances/deaths, and others. But what is it? What is the truth? I had to know! So much new information to take in! I was enthralled with the story! Sometimes I'm so drawn into the story I forget to make notes for the review. It's a good thing! It happened with this story. I was so intent on listening to everything that happened and all the details, living with the characters and enjoying all scenes, that I didn't want to stop to make notes. Deborah had me worried for Nadira and Jonathan in this book. I worried for their connection, their lives, and their well being. I was saying to myself, a few times, that just can't be...they have to....there's a hint for what I want, or am I reading to much into it. I love when an author has me question myself and what's happening, it's all done in a good way and keeps me guessing. Any additional comments? The little extras that narrators do help make the book all that more interesting. Kristin has a talent of adding a bit of that flare to her work. Nadira and Jonathan have a psychic ability to mentally speak and in doing this Kristin does this in a way that you know it's not normal speak - there's a sound like it's dreamy or echo-y but clear to hear. Kristin does different voices for the characters, making them easier to differentiate when listening to all together. We are reintroduced to the main characters, and those around them, in the first chapter. This is so well done as it's about now and how Nadira and Jonathan are living. But we see what had happened as there is a new worry as of today. Mikal has escaped from the penal colony he was imprisoned on, after the Burn Order was carried out. This book seems to conclude a period of Nadira's life that was stressful. But, in the end I heard about the next book that's coming. It'll be done with a character we got to see in this series. Cool beans! Hathor Legacy - Revelations Any additional comments? While I enjoyed this story it did take me a bit to get all the characters and the story straight. This is the 3rd book in the series and I have not listened to the previous installments.

Heart of Steel Audiobook by Elizabeth Einspanier

Title: Heart of Steel Author: Elizabeth Einspanier Narrator: Peter Reynolds Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 28 mins Language: English Release date: 05-21-15 Publisher: Elizabeth M. Einspanier Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 16 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: When Alistair Mechanus first sees his captive, ER doctor Julia Parker, it is love at first sight - for him. Although he eagerly sets aside his plans for world domination to woo her, 10 years of solitude on Shark Reef Isle have left his social skills badly rusted. When his misguided act of kindness goes out of control, however, Julia must overcome her fear and place her trust in the mad genius. She has the skills to unlock his forgotten past - but discovering who he used to be might come at the cost of his remaining sanity. Members Reviews: Cliche, but fun. Heart of Steel is a fun little romance novel, nothing to new or different really. Girl has guy she doesn't really like, meets new guy, drama ensues. Except the new guy is a mad scientist. Don't expect the science or the geeky techy stuff to be all that accurate, the explanations for why and how are only enough to suspend your disbelief for the real meat of the story: the romance. The epilogue doesn't satisfy too much, as the last few lines make the book feel like it was the entrance for a much larger story, maybe it is, but as far as I know this is a one-shot. One wonders what happens in the future and no answers are provided. Which is the entire point of an epilogue in my opinion. It's the narrator that truly shines in this audiobook. The voices are all differentiated from the others, and the robots are all modulated, making them sound like machines. For the rest of the narration, the narrator's baritone voice is soothing and pleasant to listen to. All in all, a decent book, one to add to the reading list, but not jostle any other books out of their position for. A heart of steel and a soul of gold What did you like best about this story? Hung up on the shelf of romance and sci-fi literature is a book that strangely met the 80s movies rhetoric and kitsch. The love triangle narrated by Ms. Einspanier is an enjoyable read bound by the rules of the aforementioned genres. It is a light-hearted, though with its relatively grim moments, fiction that offers an enjoyable fill-up for a week-end in peace in your house. And if you dont enjoy the free-time necessary to read through this novel but still shows interest into it, I can only recommend this audiobook. Have you listened to any of Peter Reynoldss other performances before? How does this one compare? This read is simply magnified by Peter Reynoldss voice whose acting of the storys main characters especially Dr. Alistair Mechanus when his heart of steel slowly strips itself of its lead lid are praiseworthy beyond measures for a first production on Audible.com. Any additional comments? Heart of Steel is a good audiobook to listen to while you attend to other tasks. It indeed doesnt require a deep listening to be enjoyed and Peter Reynoldss vivid voice acting will keep you awake throughout. Kind of a Mad Scientist meets Beauty and the Beast Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? After coming off a steady diet of Neal Asher and C.J. Cheeryh I needed something little on the lite side for a trip and this fit the bill perfectly and it had some good reviews on GoodReads so gave it a shot. A bit of romance, a bit of action, and a bit of humor. As one person on Amazon put it it was like the Island of Dr. Moreau meets Beauty and the Beast..which is pretty accurate although I would throw in a dash of "The Terminator" as well.

Reign Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Fugitives from Startech, Jade and Aric follow their map to Dieter Copeland's house in the backwoods of Rutherford. While in hiding, Dieter teaches them how to connect with their alien metal. But their teacher is keeping his own deep, dark secret - a secret that could affect both their lives. Aric and Jade grow closer, falling more in love, but being on the run has its drawbacks. When it becomes apparent that Startech will stop at nothing to recover their technology, the pair comes face to face with imminent danger, their fears, and the truth behind the company that threatens their existence. Ultimately, as Jade and Aric fight for their lives, they discover there is only one place they can go. Members Reviews: Part two...what to say? So we learn more about Aric and his people ...but the story itself still feels rushed. I found the character growth confusing. One minute weak or strong, only to change the next few sentences. Words like love over used and perhaps even put in place of the better term lust. Why? Perhaps under the influence of the implants feeling would develop somewhat faster than human bonds. Still....a sweet light read. I like the idea of this series alien/human not so different but not the same. Will continue to read. Need to find out how the story ends after all .

Stinger Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Hidden, buried deep within the government's archived files of failed military experiments lays a troubling secret. For years, 1953 to 1972 to be exact, a team of doctors and scientists tried unsuccessfully to alter test subjects, hoping to build living, organic weapons for the future. Eventually the project was disbanded, labeled an abject failure - but they were wrong - it just took the passage of time and altered DNA. Now, years later, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the original test pool are different, superior, and dangerous. Project Generations was spawned, a systematic collecting, or scrubbing, of an experiment gone awry. The Generations are hunted, collected, and eliminated before someone discovers the key to controlling them...or perhaps someone already has. Clouded in secrecy, a general is tasked with the daunting assignment of hoarding or wiping out the past by destroying their future. Captain Christina Aarons, a cursed Generation, is dispatched by the general to locate a new partner, Captain Jonathan Cross, himself the recipient of special abilities. Together the duo battle time, the general, and unseen forces, to block the laboratory testing and genocide of their brothers and sisters. A story steeped in plausible rhetoric, Generations Beyond will grip you and not let you go until the final minutes of this series is turned and the truth is revealed. Secure your copy today and discover The Generations. Members Reviews: Wonderful first audible experience. Any additional comments? Very engaging story!! I thoroughly enjoyed every single word!! Excellent inventive intertwining of Cross and Aarons, and even a nod to 90s staple Kris Kross! :) Captivating Absolutely loved this book! I can't wait to read the next book and see how things turn out! Black ops, sex, and drugs what's not to like? This book does not fall into my typical reading patterns, but it does have a quality for character building as well as the kind of dirty minded humor that I can get with my close friends. There is darkness in the story, and there is light, questions and some answers, but just enough to keep you from getting frustrated. I've met the authors and think highly of them. For their first attempt at storytelling it's a worth while venture. Guys don't be put off by speaking less Action factor, and ladies it is more up your alley for that reason.

Blue Nebula Audiobook by Diane Dooley

Title: Blue Nebula Author: Diane Dooley Narrator: Evelyn Spahr Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 09-24-12 Publisher: Carina Press Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Sola de la Vega is on a mission to save the galaxy, and nothing will sway her - not even the pleas of her beloved husband, Captain Javan Rhodes, to keep herself and their unborn child safe. Fitted with a series of technological "enhancements" entwined with her central nervous system, Sola is not fully human. Her father is the undisputed leader of Earth, and Sola is driven to put an end to his genocidal rule - before he can follow through with his plans to consolidate power over the universe into the hands of the aristocracy. Despite Javan's fears for her safety, and coping with a difficult pregnancy, Sola's quest has become an obsession she cannot control. Compelled to choose, duty must come before her love for Javan. And when Sola joins forces with Destin Grady - her father's sworn enemy - in a plot to execute the dictator and seize power, she soon uncovers secrets from the past that have her facing a future she never could have imagined.... Members Reviews: Marvelous science fiction romance If you like science fiction romance AT ALL, get Blue Galaxy now. I'll wait for you to catch up to me. It is just SO worth it. Don't believe me? Take a look at my review of the first book in Diane Dooley's Blue Universe for the first chapter of Javan and Sola's story. (And it's impossible to review book two without spoiling book one at least a little. I want you to discover this world for yourself. Much more fun that way.) At the end of Blue Galaxy, Javan and Sola have more of a "Happy-For-Now" than a "Happy-Ever-After". Not because they aren't crazy in love with each other, but because the entire universe really is out to get them. Sola is determined that the only way she and Javan can have their happiness forever is if she goes home and gets rid of the enemy who is dogging their every step. There are only a few problems with her plan. 1) Their enemy is the all-powerful Dictator of Earth. 2) He's Sola's daddy. 3) Sola is pregnant. 4) Daddy dearest inserted some really messed-up bio-engineered programming into Sola that is messing up her pregnancy and her emotional balance. And then there's the really big problem--her daddy the dictator planned all of this (except Sola's pregnancy) because he wanted Sola to take over from him. He's dying. He wants her to be the next dictator. Sola only knows what she wants when she turns off all her enhancements. But without her enhancements, she's not sure she can survive everything that's being thrown at her. Especially after her programming makes her give Javan up. But it can't make her forget him. No matter how many times she puts her memories of him into data storage. Love is stronger than programming. Love can conquer everything. Escape Rating B+: Blue Nebula was every bit as good as Blue Galaxy. I loved finding out more about Sola and her world. In the first story, she's such an enigma. Here we find out what happened to her. But then, so does she! There's also a lot of heartbreak. Not just for Sola and Javan, but also for Destin Grady, who loved Sola and lost her twice. I kind of hope there will be a sequel where he finally gets another chance at happiness with someone else. He's finally earned one. I do still wish we knew a bit more about Daddy Dearest's motivations for totally warping all of his children. He was just plain way out there.

Her handlers designed experiments to fix the problem, but only made it worse. Sick to death of living under their thumb, she jumps at a chance to escape. She's barely settled in as a CIA special operative - a role where she can put her augmented mind and body to use - when her wobbly genetics decompensate. Tony's a freak - a genetically altered superhuman waging war against the government. He snaps up an offer of amnesty, walking away from his role as a genetic researcher to work for the CIA. When Charity collapses in a severe seizure, he labors to save her life, but nothing's working. In a last ditch effort, he joins his mind to hers and discovers he wants her more than he's ever wanted anything. Only problem is she hates every single male freak for how they treated women in the compounds. Charity recovers from her medical crisis, but all she can think about is Tony. Furious, determined to never let anyone like him near her, she blocks him from her mind, but he seeps back in anyway. Loving someone like Tony is a huge risk, a gamble that could throw her already volatile genes into a tailspin. Knowing all that, why the hell is she considering it? Members Reviews: GenTech book 3 I love this series. It has military action, futuristic technology, and romance. I have listened to both book 1 and 2 and highly recommend listening to these in order. This installment in the series follows Charity. Charity is an augmented human who has unstable genetics. Her life is saved by another "freak" like herself who now harbors deep feelings for her. Their budding relationship has to face many challenges. Can Charity forget that Tony was once the enemy? Can two "machines" have a future together? Can they even love? Both these emotional struggles and the constant action make for a very entertaining listen. book 3 this one had me excited the moment I opened it cant wait for book 4.

Then get revenge. The future will bring technological revolutions and political upheaval, but some things are timeless. Love grows, trust is precious, and nothing ever goes as planned. Naomi Kwan is running for her life. First she's accused of terrorism, then her friend Serena is charged with murder, and then the police try to kill them both. They escape with their lives before the corrupt officials behind the frame-ups can silence them, but as conspiracies unravel on all sides, their luck is sure to run out. Carl Jenson and his brother Parker are government contractors hired to gather evidence against Naomi, but the mission turns personal when all hell breaks loose. They know Naomi is innocent, and they know all about liberating people trapped by escalating violence. The hardest part will be convincing Naomi they're on her side. A daring escape and a desperate rescue are only the beginning. Mysteries from Naomi's past will collide with Carl and Parker's many secrets, and unraveling the plots that tie them all together leads to explosive consequences. Members Reviews: A good story with an all right narrator I really enjoyed this continuation of the story started in Controlled Descent. My favorite part was the growing relationship between two characters particularly, one old, one new. The story is well-written, flows beautifully, and comes to a satisfying conclusion. My one distraction was the overuse of personification. At times the cast seemed even bigger than it was because so many of the characters' emotions were personified. The narrator has some noticeable vocal patterns he falls into and this was most obvious in the first part of the book. Near midway, he slows down and really improves, to the point that I could forget I was listening to someone reading and just enjoy the story. Overall, this was a great story and audiobook. I'd recommend it for folks who enjoy thrillers and science fantasy!

Edith Hornby lives in the clockwise universe - Edward Moriarty lives widdershins.

And while the trials and tribulations of the young vampire's life have left him with a fiery rage, things are finally beginning to come together. Armed with his trusty revolvers, Yin and Yang, and a thirst for death and destruction, there is nothing that his expertise and fury can't stand against! Except the spellbinding Estella. Estella finally has her best friend back, and, despite her many years of training in the art of magic, it wasn't until recently that she discovered just how deep the paranormal world goes. But no matter how overwhelming the revelations might be, she's found reassurance and comfort in the depths of Xander's supernatural embrace. With their relationship's intensity growing, a new threat emerges from the depths of the Stryker family's past; one with a personal vendetta and visceral goals. Even with the help of some unlikely new allies, will the paranormal pair be able to survive the infernal rage? Or will their relationship be destined for disaster? Members Reviews: I pray for more. OOOMMMMMGGGGG!!!!! I waited for this book and it seriously did NOT disappoint. The writing is as always, epic. It pulls you right into the story and holds you captive until the very last letter. Xander, once again goes through harsh and rough times in order to get his life inline, so to speak. He is falling in love with his best friend, and must decide what to do about it. Meanwhile someone is out for him in a very BIG way, and he has to protect himself, his best friend and his mentor. What happens to him is more then anyone could ever want to go through. I cannot go into detail but let me just say that tears were shed more than once, as Mr. Squiers leads you into a world where what you want to happen, is NOT what will happen. You cannot be prepared for what is about to happen to you as you read this book. Get this book, and get ready for yet another masterpiece in horror, gore, love, and pain as you follow Xander Stryker into more of his life, as he tries to find his way and make things better......But be warned...the ending WILL leave you wanting WAY more. I know I am gonna die until the next book is in my hands. And a small note of Thanks to the Literary dark Prince for his wonderful words in the end. I read the last page and more tears came out. I will be eternally grateful. Really Looong Fight Sequences Much as I like the characters in this series, I find myself losing interest during the overly long battles our hero gets into. And for someone who is supposedly well trained in fighting, he certainly gets the tar beaten out of him quite regularly. I will read the next installment. (I want to see where the romance leads.) But I don't know if it will be able to hold me enough to want to read more. Better than the first book In this second visit into the worldscape of "Crimson Shadow," Xander and Marcos, his friend and mentor are the sole remnants of the once proud Odin clan. Together they attempt to continue the work Xander's father started while taking out rogue supernaturals for the council. With his training finally complete, it's now Xander's job to hunt down rogues as Marcus gets the assignments.

He's not even aware of her existence - other than as a fellow agent working Black Ops for the CIA. Her friends, Glory, Honor, and Charity, found men to love, so Hope knows it's possible. But the odds aren't in her favor. Not in a world of normal humans where she's a genetically modified aberration. Hell, even she refers to her kind as freaks. What man in his right mind would want one of those in his bed? Charlie swore off women after his last marriage went down in drama-tipped flames 15 years ago. His first mistress is danger. He fell in love with the adrenaline rush when he signed on as a Navy Seal right out of college, and he never got over the thrill of pitting himself against the impossible. Hope caught his eye the night she escaped her compound, but years of ignoring anything resembling a feeling made it easy to ignore the attraction - until they're paired on a mission. Her intelligence and resourcefulness impress the hell out of him, but her half-naked body, exposed after an animal attack, forces him to face feelings he was certain he'd buried for good. Members Reviews: Hope and Charlie's Story If you have been enjoying this series like I have, this installment will not let you down. The CIA continues their campaign against the "freaks" who want revenge. During the excitement the attraction between Charlie and Hope becomes undeniable as they have to work together. I am in this series for the long haul and looking forward to the next!

Glory, Honor, Charity, and Hope have all found men who adore them. Faith is happy for her sisters, but it's lonely on her own. A man piqued her interest, but she ran the probabilities, and the odds of him ever being interested in her are thin. Tough and forbidding, Reginald was a field surgeon in the Middle East. He eats and breathes medicine. Besides, he's married to the CIA. No wives in his past. Faith hacked into the personnel database to check. Reginald Thomas agreed to run the CIA's infirmary after a bullet nailed him in Afghanistan. He's one of a handful of scientists who produced the original batches of genetically modified humans, and he's lain low since their rebellion. The catastrophe rankles, but he hasn't given up finding a fix for their genome problems. A permanent bachelor for a host of feeble reasons, he's substituted immersion in medicine and science for a personal life. Easier that way. And a whole lot cleaner. The status quo might be sterile, but at least it's trouble free. When Faith catches his eye, he fights his attraction to her, but it's a losing battle. Loving her fulfills him, and he can't walk away. What will happen if she discovers he helped create those like her? In a radical departure from his normal forthright manner, he buries that fact deep. If she never finds out, it can't ever come back to bite him. Members Reviews: The end of a great series What a great finale! I don't want to give the surprise away so I will be vague. This final installment follows Faith and her chance at love with Reg, the CIA doctor. However, Reg is more than he seems and has a large role to play in the conflict with the Freaks. Loved this series! I am sad to see it end.

Title: My Strength, My Power, My Love Author: Linda Mooney Narrator: Mister Plug Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 05-15-17 Publisher: Linda G. Mooney Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Once in every one million births, a child is born on Bellac with the Synergistic gene. These children are taken from their parents and raised, trained, and prepared for the day when they will find their Synergistic other half. For when that happens, an entity is created from the combination of both male and female who holds unbelievable powers. An entity who is trained to protect and defend its home world. Grey Dansis is a Synergian. She has reached the time when she must meet the others like herself and hopefully find the male who will become her life-long partner from a crowd of strong, prime adult males who are ready to join the war as soon as they are united with their female halves. Unfortunately Grey has secretly harbored a longing for Rowe Maine. But the man is five years her senior and considered long past acceptance. He is an Unmatched Synergian who has lost his chance to become one of the rare new entities. By law he is no longer able to seek his mate. Now the man is a trainer and teacher at their special school. It won't be long, however, before their world is again attacked by marauders. The creatures bent on domination are a species the Synergians have never encountered before. And this time the creatures' goal isn't just to conquer Bellac, but to totally wipe the planet's population and its army of Synergians out of existence. Grey has no idea that Rowe, the man she has long been in love with, is her fated other half. Or that the power coming from their union would be the only force strong enough to save Bellac from complete annihilation. Because the law won't even let them touch. Members Reviews: The focus is on a perfect paring I read another book by LInda Mooney and enjoyed it so I thought I'd try another. This is an awesome read. The characters were very real and the love story is powerful. Grey Dansis is a cadet at the Academy for children born with the gene to become a Synergian, upon graduation the new cadets are expected to look for their pefect mate among the other cadets. They can determine who their mate is from touching, kissing or having sex. Of course with new graduates who have not been able to interact with each other for years, sex is the chosen method of determining who their mate is. Grey has a good idea who her mate is but the difficulty is he is an unmatched Synergian who has passed the five year mark without find a mate and is considered past the time to be able to find a mate. There are laws against their becoming a mated pair and they have to fight to gain the right to their love. Along with that, Bellac is being attacked be an enemy who they are not able to defeat. Grey and Rowe are up against insurmountable odds, they could die before they can win the right to be mated. Write another book or even a series about the Synergians. This a terrific book that I reread on a regular basis. I've always felt that Rowe' s best friend deserved a book of his own with maybe a second chance at Synergistic love. This book, though, is my absolute hands down favorite. The characters, story, everything comes together perfectly. If you haven't read any of Linda Mooney' s books before, definitely read this ! You won't regret it. Incredible science fiction & romance story in one book I found this to be one of my favorite of Linda Mooney's books.

Rhea 41070 Audiobook by Linda Mooney

Title: Rhea 41070 Author: Linda Mooney Narrator: Doug Greene Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 40 mins Language: English Release date: 02-27-17 Publisher: Linda G. Mooney Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Bock Gammon is a freedom runner. A man with a space ship for hire. He has heard of Replacements and knows they exist, but he has never personally come across one. In fact, he finds the whole idea repugnant - growing a living being specifically for the purpose of harvesting his body parts. So do the governments in many of the galaxies who have declared Replacements illegal. Which is why he is stunned to discover his latest assignment is to bring a Replacement to one of the wealthiest men in the Chatta Dul system. If he hadn't so desperately needed the money, he wouldn't have accepted the job. It doesn't take long for Bock to realize that Rhea 41070 isn't just one-of-a-kind, she's also unlike any woman he has ever met. And the closer they get to the point of delivery, the more he knows he can't walk away and leave her behind to be dissected. Somehow, he has to find a way to save her, despite the odds and hundreds of well-armed men awaiting their return. Members Reviews: A breathstealing ending . . . . can't be missed Honestly, for me, Linda Mooney used to be a hit or miss author. She's written some of my favorite books as well as ones I just couldn't bring myself to finish. With this book she has officially tipped to scales to a favorite author whose website I stalk to find out about new releases. Bock is the captain of his own ship and merry band of men (one man and one woman to be precise). He's a smuggler with a heart of gold (I kept picturing Mal from Firefly) and is offered a large sum of money to pick up and deliver cargo to a dying aristocrat. When he realizes the cargo he's being asked to transport is a Replacement he and his crew are appalled. They never would have accepted the job had they known but now that they've committed themselves to this course, can they save the Replacement without risking their own lives? As Bock beings to fall in love with Rhea the risk of losing her becomes greater than the risk to himself. Rhea is a Replacement, a genetically created human designed to be used as "spare parts" for the injured or dying individual they were cloned from with no concern for their one well-being. Unaware that the creation of her kind was outlawed for moral reasons, she is at first unconcerned with her potential fate. Having been brainwashed since "birth" she believes this is her sole purpose and a worthy one at that. As she beings to fall in love with Bock she realize she wants more than to simply be a walking transplant farm. It's a relatively common Sci-Fi plot line that I must have seen a half dozen times in the past, but Linda Mooney manages to make it emotionally engaging. I managed to figure out the ploy by which they would save Rhea from the first hint in the beginning of the book but the ending of this story literally stole my breath. I'm not kidding, I think I held my breath for the entire last three chapters. I've never read an ending that had me teary-eyed and on the edge of my seat like that. I couldn't read the words fast enough, and then when I finished I went back and reread the chapters because I was sure I'd skipped over words in my haste to finish. Linda Mooney manages to write in two romance genres that are really hard to find good examples of , Sci-Fi and Fantasy.

Naomi Ay Narrator: Rebecca A. Reynolds Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 04-09-15 Publisher: Ayzenberg, inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: In book three of the series The Two Moons of Rehnor, Senya and Katie have settled into a somewhat normal life. It does not last long though as Senya is plagued by a strange and debilitating blood condition brought on by the task he has been sent to Rozari to complete. In a moment of weakness, he is captured by his nemesis and uncle, Prince Akan. Commander Katie and the crew of the Starship Discovery fight to save him, eliminating Akan as a threat, and leaving Senya's path to the throne clear. Now Katie must learn to live within the restricted rules of the Rehnorian Court or escape back to the stars for her last chance of freedom. There is other evil in the galaxy though and for their own safety, neither Senya nor Katie may have a choice. Members Reviews: It was almost like stalling or "filling in time" Book 4, in my opinion wasn't as riveting as the previous 3. It was almost like stalling or "filling in time". I will say that I'm not as gung ho about buying the rest of the series after finishing this book. It covered over 10 years, but wasn't impressed with the progression. It just keeps getting better I am really enjoying this series. The books really tie together well and this book has some real surprises in it. I continue to be enthralled with Senya and Katie. Although I sometimes want to kill them for being so dense they can't see their love for each other. Sort of like real life I think. I think I'll keep reading and find out if they figure it out. A well written fantasy book I enjoyed the book and I am sure to follow the series and recommend it to others. Great riding and held my attention for more and more The author has great writing skills and the imagination is incredible I just can't put this book down I just go from one book to the next to the next What a great series Fell in love after the first few pages. I would recommend this book to anyone I meat. would recommend it to anyone

Twitch Audiobook by Jack Blaine

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/623/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Twitch Author: Jack Blaine Narrator: Nikki Devitt Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 08-28-13 Publisher: Jack Blaine Books Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Twitch was born into the system: the system of Society members and lower designates. Unfortunately for her, she belongs to the latter group. Lower designates are tracked for a task and expected to do what they're told, when they're told, from birth on. Twitch has never known anything different. She lives her life from day to day, working at the Pre Ward, trudging home to the complex at night, following the rules because to defy them means imprisonment, or even death. Still, when her only real friend mysteriously disappears, Twitch asks one too many questions. She's caught in a trap from which she can't escape her fate in the hands of a mad man. But someone notices Twitch - someone cares enough to risk it all to save her. She discovers another world, where secret plans are being laid to overthrow the system and liberate the lower designates. And Twitch has a key role to play. Or does she? Who do you believe when your life is filled with lies? What is the truth? Twitch will have to trust someone. Or die trying. Members Reviews: Compelling Read Twitch had me engaged from the first page. I was totally hooked when Twitch's story overlapped with Jack Blaine's previous novel Helper 12 in a scene where Benna's last moments before escape are juxtaposed to the beginning of Twitch's story. Again, we are in a world that doesn't seem too far from a scary future where people are relegated to specific "functions." And yet at other times, the echoes of how our society actually does treat some as if they are less than human is present as well. Twitch's narration lets us see how difficult it is to break with the expectations that are so ingrained that we often don't see how we have been "programmed" to behave and interact. She is very real in her struggles to understand and to change. And the mystery of how this Liberation organization came to be and of how these characters got involved is slowly revealed so that the novel compels readers to want to read "just one more chapter" before putting the book down for awhile. And of course we want to pick it up as soon as possible to find out how Twitch's situation will resolve itself. Nice job, Jack Blaine. And I hope some of these minor characters will get their own stories told in future books that you create! Good follow up! Loved Helper 12 - and this novel provides a nice link. I wish it were longer. I teach high school, so I am always on the hunt for books my kids will enjoy and will share with each other. This fits the bill! A sequel just as absorbing as the earlier book I thoroughly enjoyed this sequel to Blaine's Helper12. I was glad to learn more about, and follow a story focusing on, the character of Kris from the first book. As in Helper12, there was some unnecessary redundancy in the thoughts of the POV character, but again, this was a minor annoyance. The book's further exploration of the world and the additional characters made for another absorbing and enjoyable book. Attention Grabber It was a spellbinding story that kept you from putting your book down. As I read it, I could well imagine this scenario playing out and couldn't wait to see what happened next. MUST read dystopian book MY REVIEW I received a kindle copy of this book direct from the Author Jack Blaine in exchange for my honest review.

Title: Sky Author: Michelle Samson Narrator: Dorinda Ravish Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 02-17-17 Publisher: Impact Publishing Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Sirens were blaring. They hurt his ears, but he pushed on. The floor in the corridor was shiny and black, reflecting the white light from the pods stacked next to the walls on either side. He glanced from left to right as he ran, searching the screens next to the pods frantically. The markings flashing on them were in the language of his captors, but he'd spent enough time among them to know what they meant. He'd learned early on that if your masters think you're an idiot, they let the reins slip. He was anything but an idiot. After a while, they speak openly in front of you, like you're nothing but a piece of furniture. One slip leads to another, and pretty soon you know everything about their deviant empire. He didn't have a name, had never been given one. Mostly he was referred to as "you" or "slave", sometimes no coherent word at all but just a grunting sound. His masters were fat and lazy. Well, now their laziness had come to bite them on their fat asses.

Aliena Too Audiobook by Piers Anthony

Title: Aliena Too Author: Piers Anthony Narrator: Felicity Munroe Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 35 mins Language: English Release date: 04-03-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: An alien starfish and a human man must learn to live in each other's bodies in Piers Anthony's ingenious sequel to the science fiction gem Aliena. Along with fellow members of her sapient starfish race, Aliena traveled many light-years to Earth. There, in the host body of a human woman, the inquisitive extraterrestrial learned how to exist as a member of this perplexing earthborn race. Now Piers Anthony, the New York Times best-selling maestro of science fiction and fantasy, continues the story in Aliena Too, as the males of two markedly different species must somehow adapt to one another. Lida Fisher knows that her beloved husband, Quincy, will die soon as the result of a rare and terrible brain rejection syndrome. But there is one hope. If Quincy consents to switch brains with one of the alien beings that have arrived from the other side of the galaxy, he will live on - albeit in the body of a starfish. And that means Lida must agree to let a new man into her life and her bed, one with the face and body of her adored husband but with the mind of an alien stranger. More difficult still, Lida must somehow teach this star man how to love. And many miles above the Earth, Quincy also will have to make extreme adjustments to a body and an existence he never dreamed would be his. But luckily both Fishers will have someone to guide them through the perils, pitfalls, and traumas that must invariably accompany their strange new reality - a truly remarkable creature who has already been there and back again: Aliena. Members Reviews: I am Married to an Alien What would you do to ensure your loved one lived? And, if that cost was paid each day, how would you overcome the emotional challenge? Well, this book covers those issues. This isn't a story of a grand quest to gather some item with a party, like so many fantasy settings. So, if you are looking for shooting action or physical conflict you wouldn't be in the mood for this plot. For my part, I love action stories; however, on occasion I want to read an "emotional" story that has purpose and meaning. Thus, if you are want to enjoy a good story to see what emotional complications are generated with twisting together an alien species with humans then you found an enjoyable journey. In short, if your expectations are set to follow the struggles of characters you'll not be disappointed.

Pro: A year to spend with your familyNo more bills!! Con: The people you depend on to keep you safe and grow your food...Do you think they will go to work tomorrow? Would you? The President and all the world leaders knew a year ago. Death from above was coming, and after much study and debate, they realized that there was nothing they could do to stop it. But instead of telling the world right away, they waited as long as they could...until three hours before the apocalypse... A man desperately tries to get to his estranged wife and kids...an evangelist must confront his own shady past...a man pursues vengeance...the entire world is only given three hours to accept their imminent death... What would you do? Members Reviews: Things seem to be abit out of kilter on this one.. Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? Sure. Most audio books are, this one being no exception. Interesting concept that most of us have thought about at some point in our lives. What do you do when you know the end is coming, and how do others deal as well. It certainly gives the listener pause to consider their own potential response. What did you like best about this story? Each story arc had it's own uniqueness. Interesting plot device here so it all runs coincidentally. Not one thing to pull out...the story needs to be viewed as an entire package as I see it. Have you listened to any of Duane Sharps other performances before? How does this one compare? I have not, and I was impressed. Had a Luke Daniel like quality. I want to hear more from him. If this book were a movie would you go see it? Perhaps. Any additional comments? This one had some religous overtones that were abit off putting at first, but made sense as the story unfolded. On balance, this is a unique, powerful story, maybe abit too "small " for the subject matter at hand, but worthwhile nonetheless. Recommended, with those reservations to be considered.

Mindlink Audiobook by Kat Cantrell

Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/623/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Mindlink Author: Kat Cantrell Narrator: Holly Fielding Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 49 mins Language: English Release date: 04-01-13 Publisher: Carina Press Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Determined to revitalize her imploding career, blacklisted movie star Ashley V takes on her biggest role yet: posing as one of 10 scientists invited by aliens to a universal summit. But when the aliens seize, strip, and implant the entire delegation to extract their knowledge, she is quickly found out and sent to a cell to await recycling. The alien research director designated ZXQ-One devised a plan to let the humans volunteer their best and brightest in a gamble to solve his people's energy crisis. But he fails to find anything useful and winds up imprisoned alongside the fiery human woman who refuses to give up, and who insists on calling him Sam. After an accidental link between their implants lets them share their thoughts, they find themselves drawn to each other. Sam will have to trust in her human compassion and forgiveness for his role in her capture, and Ashley will have to trust him with her deepest secrets if they are to have any chance at survival.... Members Reviews: Another Shallow Romance First of all, I mistakenly believed from the description of this book that it was a science fiction novel. It's not. Technically, it is a romance. There is so little knowledge of technology represented in this book that the mind link device could just as easily be a piece of alien wizardry as it could be of science. As a romance, the novel should allow the reader to vicariously experience Ashley V falling in love with with the alien ZXQ-One/Sam. We should learn who these people are from the way they act, what they value, and the world they live in. However, there is no depth to either the characters or the story. The basic story is told so starkly as to be simplistic. It is as if the author were given an outline of a story to write and used the fewest possible words to achieve that goal. Due to a lack of foreshadowing, key plot points appear as needed out of nowhere. Need a place to escape to? Poof! Here is a child who needs rescuing and he will lead you a safe place. In spite of the lack of detail and logic in this novel, it did hold my interest. I give partial credit to the narrator who did an excellent job, with a nod to the author who shows potential if she makes the effort to grow as a story teller.

Able to feel the emotions of those around him, he chooses to spend his days in solitude, pushing out the feelings that attempt to consume him. With numbness his only relief, he's surprised when he finds himself letting someone in, actually wanting - craving - to feel what she feels. Even though he was warned to stay away from Kalista LaFontain, Jet didn't listen, not caring what family she came from, knowing she wasn't like them. Somehow, she was able to make the emotions that assaulted him on a daily basis more bearable, a pleasant contrast to his usual numbness. He didn't care how powerful or hated her family was - he'd risk it. Little did he know, that risk would change his life forever. Members Reviews: LOVE IT! I loved the storyline and can not WAIT to read the next one! I'm hooked to your books! :D Five Stars Absolutely loved this book. Five Stars Loved it, can not wait for the sequel. An amazing read Feels like rain by Janae Mitchell A spin off from the âFor Alwaysâ series, you can read this alone, but I do recommend the series first. A rich family have moved into town and are trying to buy all of the farmers land, including Reeds and Rainbeaus. So far Malyn and Beau, Jets parents have managed to keep hold of their land and businesses but are fed up with the constant harassment. So Jet is shocked when the daughter of this family comes to talk to him to offer her condolences and is surprised to find that she is genuine and that he actually likes her. Jet is different from other people and doesn't like to be around them as he is an empath. He can feel what everyone else is feeling which causes him to distance himself from others. But when he starts to spend more time with Kali he starts to fall in love with her and knows that she loves him just as much. Then Jet gets framed for blowing up a factory and goes to prison and Kali has to decide whether to believe him or just to walk away and forget about their time together. I was really excited to receive this book as I have read the âFor Alwaysâ series and they are fabulous books. This one didn't disappoint and there were some very emotional scenes in this story that made me both laugh and cry. I loved the characters, as always, Janae will make you love them or hate them depending on who they are. I didn't want the story to end and am calling for another spin off from this book! Recommended to all who love a good coming of age story with love, lust, hurt, and happiness. Must Read. A must read, I do not normally read YA paranormal books. I won it and it had me hooked. You will love the characters. I recommend this book for the young adults that are coming of age. A good book about love and trust.

Hering Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 07-20-17 Publisher: Caer Urfa Publishing Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Author Kristin Ruggaber does it again! Lost in Time, the follow-up to Legend of the Lamp, continues to uncover the exploits of Jessie Dillman and her family. In this series of "time travel" books, book one sends a young Jessie to live on a ranch owned by her father's friends who have very old-fashioned ideas. Jessie eventually finds herself back in time - back to 1868 - by way of an old cave. By the end of the book, Jessie finds herself back on the Dillman ranch in 2012, and pregnant. Lost in Time picks up where Legend of the Lamp left off, 2013 and into 2014. As we follow Jessie's daughter, Jacqui, from being a baby through the age of 19, we learn Jacqui, who suffers from a serious illness and throws tantrums at the sight of her mother, has a habit of getting her own way. After Jacqui's mistreatment of her and after too many "misunderstandings" with Jack, as Alice went through the looking glass, Jessie eventually finds herself in the old west again, this time of her own choosing. The writing is interesting and creative, as we follow both Jessie and Jacqui though the book while marrying time, family, and cultures together. The history depicted in this book is well researched and captivating on its own. It will have special interest for those who live in Northern Nevada, but will have wide appeal for those with an interest in the history of the west, time travel, Native American studies - and true love - all thrown into one...make for a very entertaining listen. The ending of Lost in Time leaves an opening for future books. Members Reviews: Quick easy, fun, stories, with in a story!!--Will keep you turning the page!! Book 2 was smartly put together!

Title: Mine Until Midnight Author: Linda Mooney Narrator: Guy Veryzer Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 01-03-17 Publisher: Linda G. Mooney Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: He gambled and won something more valuable than money. He won love. It started off as a little R&R on a backwater planet. All Ruce Haulk wanted was a place where he could breathe some fresh air, have a stiff drink, and perhaps while away a few hours at a game of chance. He should have known better. Before he's aware, he's embroiled in the middle of a flesh-peddling scheme, and the woman he "wins" is someone he never expected to find. The moment Remi Clysonne saw the stranger take on Yarnell and his men single-handedly, she knew he was her only chance at escaping. She doesn't blame him when he doubts her claim that she's there to bring Yarnell to justice. What's more, she suspects there may be another reason why he's reluctant to offer aid. What should have been a brief layover quickly becomes an all-out struggle for survival as Haulk and Remi battle their way out of an increasingly tangled mess. But the secrets they're keeping from each other may tear them apart before they manage to get away from this world and to safety. Members Reviews: Step outside of the box - you'll love it! Ruce Haulk is a lonely man. Just wanting to kill some time, he lands on a planet to find something to do, maybe gamble a little and have a drink. When he ends up beating Yarnell at his own game, heâs offered a âlady of the night,â so to speak, until midnight as a prize. He wasnât expecting who she turned out to be, or to find himself in the middle of a skin-trafficking scheme. Remi Clysonne is an undercover officer that was sent to bust Yarnell in his illegal operations, but found herself his slave. When newcomer Haulk shows up, she knows itâs her chance to get away. And him winning her just made her plan a little easier, if she can only convince him that she speaks the truth. The two run, but Yarnell will stop at nothing to get his property back. As they spend time together, feelings start to grow, but can Haulk accept her past and the men sheâs had? Can Remi accept him and all of his mechanical differences? Part western, part steampunk, part sci-fi, and an all-around wonderful story. Mine Until Midnight is a different type of book than what you may be used to but take a chance and step outside of the box. You will be pleasantly surprised. Everything about this book was fabulous! This book has everything you could ask for. Our hero, Ruce Hault is bored and asked his AI ship to find a planet so he can have some fun. This could have easily been the WORST decision he had ever made. But due to a beautiful woman and his ability to out-play seasoned cheats in a card game, it will turn out to be a fabulous decision, albeit one that nearly kills him and did hurt like hell. Everything about this book was fabulous! The writing, the scene set ups, the mixing of an old cowboy movie with spaceships and metallic robot horses. The non-stop action. The likability of the good characters and the utter dislike of the villain. The wonderful towns people who also hate the cheat in charge and risk their lives helping Ruce and Remi. Both the hero and heroine have secrets that makes them think they are each unlovable, but both are better than the prejudices that have kept them alone âtil now. I loved everything about this book.

While traveling to the house they hope will protect them, Echo sees the little girl again. She chases her and ends up bitten by a snake. Her dreams making her feel like shes losing her mind.

Poor Echo and Ayden are having such a hard time. Nadège Richards did amazing with the direction of this book after the first one! I don't want to spoil things for you guys but OMG this story has me hooked since the beginning. I bought the first two at a release party for the third and read them back to back. I have the third so I am GLAD to jump right into that one now. Lol. I'm excited to see where the story goes now. A Brave New Princess Heroine You'll Be Sure to Love I started on this book yesterday and picked it back up this afternoon. Oh, I could hardly put it down especially when I got halfway through. This was even better than the first book. Echo is such an amazing character I love her. She reminds me of princess Jasmine and Maximum Ride. Echo isn't some damsel in distress she fights her own battles and fights for her people. Echo is headstrong and believes in doing what is right for her people as a princess. When I was reading some of the fight scenes in here I was totally blown away. I felt like I was sitting right there and watching it all unfold before me.

In this last action packed ending of the trilogy, the group have to travel farther then they ever thought they would. It seems the Gods are against them at every turn, but more clues are dropped for Echo to figure out.

As soon as I finished reading the book, I would automatically buy the next book. â Best one yet!! I LOVED this series SO much!!! I hate to see the end! This book took my imagination into over drive! Echo has endured so much and this book finally pulls everything together and gives her an ending :) This book was the best yet! And Ayden! He was so amazing!

Title: Rise of Silver and Steam Subtitle: Alliance of Silver and Steam Origins Author: Lexi Ostrow Narrator: Alexander Doddy Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 13 mins Language: English Release date: 04-18-16 Publisher: Lexi Ostrow Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Thomas Agardawes has a bride that resists him, and a job that he doesn't like. When a Royal approaches him on only his third day as a master at the Clockworker's Guild, his life is turned upside down. Demons lurk in the underground and he has been assigned the task of leading the force against evil. Seraphina has torn her wings from her body to save a lover's soul, but he spurns her. Revenge blossoms, and she plots to make Hell her own and force humans to pay for what they took from her. Nothing will stop her, and her corruption runs soul deep. Layel, a Pure Angel, has fallen for a human, and it's almost cost him his wings. That is not the hardest task to face. He must convince a man to run a secret group to hunt demons as they've come out of Hell to hunt the humans. If he succeeds, he will then need to train them all. Three souls that couldn't be more different collide in unexpected ways as the Alliance of Silver and Steam is born, and the secrets of demons unleashed on the world. See what caused the silver to melt and the steam to rise. Members Reviews: Layel's growing love and loyalty to humanity I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review. Rise of Silver and Steam is a prequel book to the Alliance of Silver and Steam series written by Lexi Ostrow. The series is a steampunk romance series that centers on demon hunters and their relationships. Some of the romances have to deal with humans and demons, but not all of them. This book centers on three different types of relationships: Seraphina's fall from grace and rise in hell, Layel's growing love and loyalty to humanity, and the marriage of the couple who will start the Alliance. What I love about this book is that we get to see what made Seraphina fall. I actually love her as a character. She's dark, twisted, and seductive. Lexi Ostrow makes great villains and Seraphina is one I love to know more about. Likewise, I loved learning how the Alliance came to be. Thomas and Audrey are a strong couple and a strong couple would have to be the ones to head a group of demon hunters. Throughout the book we see Thomas and Audrey's marriage go through hurtles. They are married very early on in the book and it is known that they may not love each other just yet. The marriage is of convienence and mutual respect. Their love is in danger in its infancy, but it is their own personal strength and the strength of them together that keeps them going. Through all of this, Seraphina is pulling all the punches to destroy mankind. See why I like this series? Ostrow weaves an interesting and intricate plot within an equally intricate world. Her world is what makes the story that much more interesting. And this book is the conception of her world in the other books of the series. Now, for a little bit of characterization... Audrey is a strong, quiet woman. She deals with her own problems within herself before voicing them. Despite her own fears, she has the bravery to admit fault where fault is due. Thomas is a passionate man. He is very vocal about his opinions and has no problem setting a person straight; even if that person could imprison him. Layel is an angel who is a bit of both. He is passionate and loyal to his cause, but he tries to fight his own battles internally.

Enslaved from the age of fifteen, Alabama Newsome is a half-breed who's managed to escape once and exact her revenge on the killer of her human mother and Lonegal father.

She's pregnant with his child and he's sure she'll abort it. When her case file comes across Logan's desk he's forced to deal with the truth mixed in with the lies. And he must decide, bring her in, or risk everything just to save her life. Members Reviews: Prudes stay away What made the experience of listening to Bounty Hunter the most enjoyable? Good story What was one of the most memorable moments of Bounty Hunter? Big battle at end. Have you listened to any of James Killaveys other performances before? How does this one compare? Yes...does his usual good job. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? No..took a few days. Any additional comments? Good sci-fi story with well developed characters. However there are a couple of sexually explicit sex scenes and lots of violence so..prudes stay away. Good sci fi story Where does Bounty Hunter rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? Not the best but pretty good. Who was your favorite character and why? Main guy...can't remember his name..heard it a while ago. What about James Killaveys performance did you like? Whole thing. Did a very good job with narration and various character voices. Any additional comments? There is lots of violence and some explicit sex. Find with me but not everyone's cup of tea. Terrible!! How did the narrator detract from the book? The automaton sound of the narration could have been overlooked, but he seemed to be unable to follow punctuation. The main character's cheap knock off of a 1950's hardboiled detective was ludicrously set in a dystopian future. I couldn't make it through the set up. Do not waste your time.

Tasma Thompson is a gorgeous, carefree young woman who catches Samuel's eye. Unfortunately, she's repulsed by him. They're thrown together on a flight to Phoenix, but before they can exchange much more than names, the plane crashes in a terrorist attack and everyone on board dies. Or do they? Samuel and Tasma abruptly find themselves at the airport terminal, having missed the flight, but with memories of having died in the flight. Gothan Jiswa is an alien on a far off world, and the practitioner of a secret, forbidden religion. He senses that reality has been altered. The source is pinpointed: Earth. An invasion force is quickly mounted. Because in a galaxy where select beings are able to alter the quantum flux of possibilities, a practice strictly controlled by the galactic emperor and his minions, someone on far off, backward Earth has just managed to alter reality in a way that shouldn't be possible. But it is possible, according to an ancient galactic prophecy. And the one with the ability to do it is prophesied to overthrow the galactic empire, end a million years of oppression, and usher in a new golden age. Gothan and his forces converge on Earth, starting a chain of events that will lead Samuel and Tasma on a wild ride across the galaxy and into the midst of religious zealots who force them to confront the possibility that one of them may be an omnipotent god whose coming was foretold billions of years earlier. Members Reviews: Don't waste the credit Not a bad idea for a book just poorly executed. While the story had potential at times the climax was very non climatic. The story line just never matured into anything other than an idea that wasn't fully realized.

Hofer Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 07-12-17 Publisher: Linda G. Mooney Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Sorrow Knight knew that at any time the U'Nar would attack Earth, but he needed a few more days to come out of chrystasis before he could fight the deadly enemy. With his soul sword, Rall, he and the handful of other Surge Knights would gather wherever the enemy landed and drive them off this world. A world with so many wonderful sights and surprises. A world that contained a woman named Rachel, who had captured his heart and his imagination but who was forbidden to him by his laws. Rachel Grohl often wondered about the skinny, dishwater-blond young man living in the apartment across the breezeway from her. His shyness, as well as his clean but well-worn clothes, tugged at her heart. They'd barely spoken a dozen words to each other since he moved in a few weeks ago, but she had to thank him for helping her the other day. Maybe asking him over to dinner would work. They shared one dinner, one touch, and one kiss that led to one night of love. A love that could ultimately avert the total eradication of the human race. Members Reviews: One of Linda's best of her recent novels One of Linda's best of her recent novels. The only thing I would add is I thought the aliens would have the technology to fix the hand. I loved this story and hope there are more with these characters and this concept. The dark aliens were truly unique, scary, and creepy. Her ending is satisfying, although predictable, but getting to that point was a can't-put-the-book-down kind of read. Recommended! Unique and another twist to alien romance story. The author seems to be good at finding different twist on each book that she writes. I like almost all of her books, if not all. Great Sci-Fi Romance! As a voracious reader, it is not often that I come across something that hasn't been done, but I was pleasantly surprised here. Ms. Mooney takes the standard story of love and adventure, and displays it in a new and wonderful environment.

A trailblazer, Tamsyn Bradford graduated as Royal Academy's first female alumni, with the fighting skills and cunning fitting a member of Her Majesty's Secret Service. Selected to teach at an elite school for female spies, Tamsyn attends a friend's class party only to fall into the lap of temptation that is Prince Slade Faust. Will a drunken night of passion ruin her career forever? Before we can find out, an evil scientist steps in and abducts Tamsyn, sending Slade and Tamsyn's group of friends on a hunt to save her very life. Following the short stories Unequited and Requited, Elle Clouse's Besotted is a fun steampunk action and romantic adventure novella. Members Reviews: This series is so fun to read. This series is so fun to read. I thought this was so much fun to read. From the very beginning, there is this tension between the characters, interlaced with a history that goes back many years. There is even a dash of mystery as the story unfolds. The ride the story takes you on is quite thrilling and will keep you turning pages way too fast. Tamsyn is one cool gal and Iâd love to be her friend. She seems a bit out of place with the boys because she almost seems too down to earth for their boy-ish pranks and general tomfoolery. When Slade is introduced, the hearts start pounding. His air of mystery mixed with his charm will have you swooning, possibly more than you did for Axel (who makes an appearance!). There are secrets to be uncovered and moments of passion. I only wish there was more. Besotted: Tamsyn and Slade: Steampunk Romantic Adventure Elle Clouseâs steampunk universe is fresh and well-developed, with a complex political situation and alternate industrial developments. Tamsyn is kidnapped early in the story, but she is tough, skilled, and never stops trying to escape. When Slade realizes Tamsyn is missing, he investigates all avenues in his search for his new love. I havenât read the earlier novellas in Elleâs Chaos Factor Steampunk series, and I was able to enjoy the story as a standalone romance. I enjoyed the universe Clouse created, and her characters are wonderful. And I have to say Airships! No Steampunk novella is complete without Airships! Yay! FTC Disclosure: I was given an ARC in return for an honest review, which has not influenced my thoughts in any way. All opinions here are my own. I want to see more of this world This was my first Chaos Factor book. I really enjoy the steampunk genre. Ms. Clouse did a great job of setting up the characters and their history together, especially for someone like me who hasn't read the previous stories. The storyline was great, it had action, mystery, and a kick-ass heroine. The taste I got of this world made me want to go back and read the other books in this series. Well done. Steampunk Fun The Factor Steampunk series is great fun to read! I loved Tamsyn and her tough can-do attitude and so does Slade. One of my favorite lines as Sladeâs âSheâs a gunslinger?â I was also pleased to have Axel and his Airship assist the smitten Slade, Edge, and Lir search for Tamsyn after she is kidnapped. I would recommend this series to those who love streampunk.

Genny O'Riordan has shifted in from Earth determined to find a story that will break her blog into the Stellarnet Top 100, and even better - expose the degradation of the colony's denizens. Duin is an alien - a Glin - a hero of a past revolution against the Glin royal family, yet branded a terrorist. Duin speaks every day in the Asteria market, hoping to spur humans to aid his home world, which has been overtaken by the evil, buglike Tikati. When Genny and Duin meet, what begins with a blog post becomes a dangerous web of passion and politics as they struggle to survive not only a war but the darker side of humanity... Members Reviews: Asking for my credit back! I admit, I only made it through part 1 of this download. Just can't bear to waste more time on this one -- and I'm one if those people that rarely gives up on a story. The premise sounds good but two hours in I was already bored. Too many history lessons built into the writing that really don't explain or connect well enough to the story. Too many events not plausible as depicted. The 'love' seems more like a bored fascination than any true feelings from either hero or heroine. And the net speak sounds like reading my teenager's text messages -- cliche-ish and trite. And overdone.

When her crewmate, Danny, is murdered on the colony of Volhynia, Central Corps engineer Commander Elena Shaw is shocked to learn the main suspect is her lover, Treiko Zajec. She knows Trey is innocent - he was with her when Danny was killed. So who is the real killer, and why are the cops framing an innocent man? Retracing Danny's last hours, she discovers that his death may be tied to a tragedy from the past. For 25 years, Central Gov has been lying about the mystery, even willing to go to war to protect their secrets. Secrets that hide a conspiracy so deep within Central Gov that it threatens all of human civilization throughout the inhabited reaches of the galaxy - and beyond. Critic Reviews: "The Cold Between is a must-read. The story is a gripping and intense page-turner with deeply complex characters, non-stop action, and top-notch world building. In one word: awesome." (Linnea Sinclair, winner of the RITA National Book Award) "The headlong action will attract readers, but they'll find themselves paying more attention to the characters' convincing and satisfying emotional relationships." (Publishers Weekly) "A passionate romance. A brutal murder. A conspiracy that threatens war on a galactic scale. Bonesteel's debut sets the stakes impressively high. A promising start to a new series." (Booklist) Members Reviews: Skip it What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Better internal logic. It's not believable to have a military organisation with people disobeying orders left and right. Would you ever listen to anything by Elizabeth Bonesteel again? No likely What didnt you like about Katharine Mangolds performance? Good performance You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? The sex was described in great detail

Title: The Good Reaper Author: Dennis J Butler Narrator: Tim Brunson Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 02-18-16 Publisher: Dennis Butler Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: An alien race has traveled 9,000 light years to reach Earth. They brought with them, a cure for cancer and all infectious diseases as well as advancements in propulsion technology. But is the human race ready to welcome a superior race? Is the human race ready to move beyond the narrow-mindedness of a territorial mentality? Is the human race prepared to trust strangers from a far-away world? When Naos Oriel-Achernar volunteered to be part of the second phase of the study of the human race, he had no preconceived notion of breaking Ranjisan law. But that was before he got to know, admire and even love the human race. Naos was part of the medical discovery team that was tasked with observing human medical conditions and treatments. Phase I of the study of the human race consisted of strictly areal observation. Naos was a part of Phase II. In order to study humans more closely, Ranjisi observers posed as humans and blended into human society. Naos was assigned to work in a hospital in New York City. Rule one of the Ranjisan exploratory bylaws prohibit direct involvement in human medical treatments. Naos was only there to observe and report back, but living among the humans was far different than studying them from the sky. Humans are rough around the edges and sometimes cruel but Naos found them exciting and he grew to love and admire them. Naos is in a battle with his conscience. Should he deny his feelings and obey the laws that he was sent to Earth to live by or should he do what he knows in his heart is right and become an alien fugitive criminal? Members Reviews: The good reaper Which scene was your favorite? Reaper is a sci-fi with its well-woven plot including aliens; and the study of human medical conditions, which was quite interesting.

Brewner Narrator: Duane Berg Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 48 mins Language: English Release date: 05-04-15 Publisher: J.P. Brewner Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Warning: This is not a hero's story. In the wake of a devastating explosion, the world has crumbled to the criminals of society. Now the Trifecta, a powerful organization, fights to regain peace and prosperity across the world. Their leader recruits Michael Fleming, a 15-year-old boy who has spectacular abilities. Shortly after arriving in the Trifecta's city, Michael discovers he must uncover a traitor who has already killed dozens of the Trifecta's best operatives. In the process of forming new friendships, Michael struggles to develop his powers and find his own path during his first year of training. But he can't shake the feeling that his new allies are hiding something from him while an ominous force watches from the shadows, influencing every move he makes. Members Reviews: A captivating, well-written story - good for kids and the kid-at-heart! The Trifecta is a great book for the young and the young-at-heart. J.P. Brewner does a masterful job at keeping the reader engaged throughout. The dynamic, exciting, and fast-paced characters kept my hypertension active. Here, Brewner creates an incredible world of super heroes that any kid will love. This book is well-written, fast-paced, with a sprint to the ending. There is no room for a break here as your imagination will be occupied with likeable characters - that have values, character, and a winning spirit - I might add. This book is fully developed with a tremendous plot, underlying lessons, and very well-structured paragraphs. This book is easy-to-read, but complex enough to challenge the reader. The Trifecta is fun, imaginative, and a great experience for anyone that is willing to go on a day long thrill-ride (because you won't want to walk away from this one!) J.P. Brewner is a tremendous author with a bright future. I cannot wait for the next installment. Highly recommended! Awesome! The Trifecta: Initiation is a very well written and imaginative Y/A *coming of age* novel. It resembles our favorite super hero stories, but brings enough uniqueness to the table that it doesnât feel like it is something you have already read at all. The main character is a boy named Michael. We follow him as he travels from Africa to join an invitation only school, the Hero Institute, that specializes in super hero training. Michael also lives in a Dystopian world that was torn apart by fighting and the same organization that runs Hero Institute is trying to regain control of the world and bring peace. The Trifecta is the name of the group. Of course, there are plot twists you never see coming and absolutely nothing is cut and dry for Michael. I particularly loved the pace that the world is built. It isnât rushed, but it also doesnât take until the very end for something to happen. Very few authors can pull off the perfect pace like in this book. Add to that the descriptive writing and highly imaginative story line and you have an amazing Young Adult dystopian novel. Although, I canât imagine anyone not enjoying this book, even if they are a little older than a young adult. I know I sure did. Donât miss out, definitely add this to your TBR list! A unique, exciting, "Trifecta"cular book! @badwordplay Michael Fleming is recruited into the powerful organization Trifecta, because he possesses supernatural abilities.

Title: Renegade Genius Subtitle: Star Borne 3 Author: Lars Bergen, Sharon Delarose Narrator: Elan O'Connor Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 11-23-15 Publisher: Sharon Delarose, Lars Bergen Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: A stolen starship and a dead man's demons threaten to ignite an intergalactic war, as an unlikely pact between a child genius and a wicked giant spawns a clone with a mind of its own. The clone is on a secret mission, not to steal the kixassa payoff, but to travel to the planet of death - a planet that no one has visited for a thousand years. Unscrambled ethics torment a man who comes back from the dead, only to find himself being kidnapped by a murderer. Meanwhile, pheromones kick into overdrive with kissing cousins, multiple wives, and an adventurous visitor. The steamiest romance, however, is between a man and somebody else's memory. Another love nest heats up when somebody tries to stop a Celtic wedding. Dwarves befriend giants, children befriend giants, but clones befriend nobody except themselves. When all is said and done, the Humans wish they'd never left Earth, because too many pirates are cruising the galaxy. Members Reviews: Five Stars A great book hard to put down Four stars This book delves deeper into the Norse and Druidic myths surrounding northern Europe and the British Isles - and flies them to the stars. Hell and the afterlife, non-corporeal life forms, racism rearing its ugly head and a fascinating Celtic wedding ceremony as circumstances take them back to the brink of war once more. On the whole, this story is happier than the second book in the series, Shades of Moloch, and some of that happiness does come Brigit's way, fortunately. Now, I don't do spoilers, so I can't say what shape it takes...simply that it does take shape. The fate of the Fomorians and Tirnogians (and all their allies) takes an unexpected turn in this book, and I'll be interested to see how the plot pans out in what I anticipate will be the next book in the series.

Title: The Cure Author: Angelica Kate Narrator: Steven Mosley Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 10-27-15 Publisher: Angelica Kate Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Zoya Palseck was raised with all the conveniences her father's vast fortune could purchase, but she was cursed to live without the love she desperately craved. Her mother was felled by a drunk driver when Zoya was but a child and, years later, her father perished in a mysterious plane crash in South America. She has spent innumerable years shut off from the prying eyes of the world, hiding behind computers and the walls of her heavily secured home. When her father's company is in jeopardy of being sold by an internal group seeking their own agenda, she assumes her rightful place and stops the mutiny in progress. That decision, along with a gift her father left for her kept hidden since his demise, will change her in ways she could never have imagined. The wild chase that ensues where everything she once held as truth will be revealed as a tangled web more dangerous than any she could conceive. Jonathan Lange has served as Zoya's bodyguard, legal counsel, and guardian ad litem since her late father's demise. He will do anything to safeguard her, help keep the secrets of her family, and ensure the success of the Palseck family company, Viztec. Unfortunately, forces outside his control are out to right old wrongs, and Zoya is the last member of her family whose blood can provide vengeance and immortality of sorts. As a trail of bodies begin to stack up on Zoya's doorstep, Jonathan will enlist the help of some shady security forces and any means necessary to stop those pursing Zoya. In the end, the best weapon of all will turn out to be Zoya herself and a secret "cure" that will change all the rules. Just when you think you know how it will turn out, keep listening. Members Reviews: Don't bother Pretty awful writing and nonexistent editing. It was so frustrating to try to read this without submitting edits on nearly every page. Great Science Fiction/Paranormal Romance I very much enjoyed this story. There's a lot happening in this book; however, it's not haphazard or too busy. On the contrary -- it was easy to follow and yes there is a paranormal/science fiction aspect to it, so if that's not your thing then move on. But, I especially enjoyed the combination of those things together and I think the author did a good job of not rushing the ending. There was a great combination of love, suspense, danger, and open-minded fiction in the book to make for a really enjoyable read. I would definitely read anything else like this from the author.

A year ago, the Virus killed off most people in the world. A year ago, strange things started happening to those who survived. Some of them transformed into something dark and sinister, while others evolved, becoming something more, something beyond human. A year ago, Dani and Zoe were lost. They traversed the country to find one another, losing some of the people dearest to them along the way. They fought for their right to simply live, uncovered long-buried secrets, and discovered irreversible truths. And after everything Dani and Zoe have been through - even with the battle wounds that they bear - they're still not safe. It's time for the struggle to end, for survivors to take back their lives, their families, their safety. It's time to really begin to live, and to do that, they must wait for the first rays of dawn. Contains some mature content and language. Members Reviews: Welcome to 2 A.E This was a great ending to the series. The band of survivors and their following of trusty animal friends have come full circle. This will give you a satisfying conclusion to the journey to the farm. You will experience a wide range of emotionsfrom sadness to joy and everything in between. We meet new friends and settle old scores with enemies from the past. All 3 previous books have led up to this and there are still surprises that will leave you shocked. Thank you Team Lindsey for this journey and these characters. The narration was actually incredible. Voices stayed consistent for the entire series and no matter emotion, situation or gender of the character the voice was very well preformed. This one was bittersweet for me in the best way as I am sad that the series is over but so excited that it ended the way it did for our survivors. Team Lindsey even leaves some questions unanswered for us and to me, some mystery is good and not knowing is very satisfying. Great job gals and to my fav boys Jack and Coop woof woof arf arf, you will know what I mean :) Far And Away The Best Series I've Read in Years! This series was riveting ! I loved the diversity of chsracters, the imaginative plots, and the diabolical twists and turns that kept you guessing throughout each book of the series. Don't miss this series! It can't be over! this was a great series and I wish out wasn't over! I loved it all! Good Read!! The narrator was great; Made listening to it more enjoyable. The story was good but a bit predictable at times. perfect ending I still want three power to talk to animals and drift. How awesome would that be!!!! I love the series.

Title: Betrayal Subtitle: Girl from Above, Book 1 Author: Pippa DaCosta Narrator: Jeff Hays Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 9 mins Language: English Release date: 05-02-16 Publisher: Pippa DaCosta Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 81 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: WARNING: Adult content. Including sex, drug use, violence, and swearing. After Captain Caleb Shepperd escapes from prison, all he wants to do is keep his head down and earn a living smuggling guns and drugs through the nine systems. But, when a synth known as #1001 stows away on the captain's ship, bringing with her a ton of problems - including guilt-ridden secrets he thought he'd left behind - he'd prefer to toss her out the airlock. The problem is, she's priceless tech and he's fresh out of credit. #1001 is no ordinary synth. She's programmed to kill. While human memories of murder and betrayal riddle her synthetic systems with faults, she's thinking only of revenge. For Captain Shepperd, there's nowhere left to hide. Members Reviews: I didn't quite expect to enjoy it that much! Would you consider the audio edition of Betrayal to be better than the print version? With audible vs print, I would always go with print. However, I think the right narrator can bring the story to life in a way that sometimes defies the imagination and Jeff Hays is that narrator. Book 2 is not yet on audible and I almost hate to continue the story without the audible version. He was THAT good! I thought I had read the information wrong and there were multiple narrators because when chapter one started with the female Synth, I heard a female voice, not someone named Jeff imitating a female voice. I had no issues distinguishing the multiple characters or the tone of the dialog. I think I have a new favorite narrator, as well as author. What did you like best about this story? I liked that the author didn't make the story predictable. Just when you think you knew what would happen next, there was a twist you didn't expect. The characters were believable...even the synthetic! I could tell that Caleb was kind of a good guy that just couldn't catch a break. I almost wished I could pat him on the back and buy him a drink. And Fran...I was a little leary of her from the beginning with the suspicious passenger, slowly I came around to appreciating what seemed to be loyalty, and ended up hating her because it felt like she betrayed me too. It was like the author makes the reader trust Fran and then WHAM!...she's Fleet. I mean come on! Caleb was going to let his brother die because he blamed him for the Fleet soldiers finding them, when it was Fran all along. As for #1001, the journey to her returned memories was just crazy but I didn't think shold would shoot Caleb...oh, right she didn't...had to restart my heart at that point. Sheesh! a girl can only take so much! Killed by her father and her lover did nothing but watch. Yeah, given the chance, I probably would have done the same...scared the holy hell out of him! LOL! Which scene was your favorite? The entire book was my favorite scene! There are some books that help kill some time and then there are those that stay with you. In other words, it was hard to find a good stopping point because I had to know what was happening. Never mind the fact that its a book and, if I just don't turn the page, I won't miss anything; or if I turned the page I could simply turn back. Nooooo...I quickly became obsessed with this story and can't wait to continue the series. Sci-Fi As It Might Be The twist was well worth it. No complaints. Voices worked well for the characters. Can't say I loved it.

Instead she's stolen by savage kidnappers from a dystopian future where fertile women are needed for breeding purposes. All she wants is to escape and find a way back to her time before she's sold as broodstock and stuck in this ruined world forever. Colonel Aloysius "Mace" Theron of the Cascadian Alliance is a battlefield commander, not a spy. But after 20 years of service, he's chosen for a top-secret mission: to infiltrate an organization of thieves using a time machine. He's supposed to find and destroy the machine, not fall in love with one of the captives. But Andie is as much of a fighter as he is, and he's drawn to her from the beginning. Yet if he fights too hard to protect her, his identity will be discovered, and his mission will fail, leaving criminals to terrorize the past and changing history. Members Reviews: Loved it! Great dystopian story. Interesting twist of an ending. Impressive storytelling, kept me engaged from beginning to end. Awesome book If you love science fiction with a little romance and a ton of adventure, you need to read this book. The author keeps you excited and on your toes throughout the book. The narration was excellent. I look forward to more audio books becoming available. Horrible! Gratuitous scenes of sexual misconduct, and no believable story line. Pure junk and a waste of $17.96 Excellent Story This story pulls you in from the beginning and keeps moving. The ending was predictable but it didn't diminish the journey. I wish there was a way to build on this story but with different characters. Female perspective is a bit different ... I liked the story but the narrator was a bit hard to get used to when she orated a male voice. I liked it, was not too bad.

Title: Chthon Author: Piers Anthony Narrator: Basil Sands Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 01-13-15 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Chthon was Piers Anthony's first published novel in 1967, written over the course of seven years. He started it when he was in the US Army, so it has a long prison sequence that is reminiscent of that experience, being dark and grim. It features Aton Five, a space man who commits the crime of falling in love with the dangerous, alluring Minionette and is therefore condemned to death in the subterranean prison of Chthon. It uses flashbacks to show how he came to know the Minionette, and flash-forwards to show how he dealt with her after his escape from prison. The author regards this as perhaps the most intricately structured novel the science fantasy genre has seen. It was a contender for awards, but not a winner. Members Reviews: I loved the details and sophistication. The narrator was superb and the author took me all the way through the galaxy it makes me wonder if the author was from space himself.

Assigned as a specimen collector for a captured cyborg, Chloe is intrigued by the machine disguised as a man. Kidnapped during his daring escape, he shows her that despite the chip in his brain, his humanity is not completely lost. Formerly known as unit X109GI, Joe is on a quest to discover his origin. While he doesn't find the answers he's looking for, he does discover that affection and lust aren't just for humans. But when it comes to a battle between logic and love, which side will the cybernetic organism - once a man - choose? Evaluating his feelings will have to wait though, because the military isn't done with Joe. But their threats against him pale in comparison before the shocking discovery of project C791, the revelation of which stuns the rebel cyborgs - and ignites a fury for vengeance. Members Reviews: Love Machines I love this story. it has love, intrigues, and cyborgs. the story was too short and I want more. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the books in this series. Cold.. but warms up nicely ;) Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? Hot sex.. interesting twist in the story.. I liked it. How could the performance have been better? the file is faulty.. repeats on occasion. but not that bad that you miss anything out.. I don't think I did. 1st in Cyborg series...... Loved it! Great storyline, which I had read in book format, that was very well narrated. Both POV's were given their own narrator which doesn't always work, but both were at the same pace, similar accents, with good emotional usage. No overdone, blown out of proportion hysterics. Would definitely recommend, however do remember Eve writes HOT books, so be careful who can hear!! Yay!!! I love this series and am excited that it is on audible. I listened nonstop. My only issue was the flip flopping of the narrators. I like when there is a male and female narrator but not switching chapters. Other than that the pace was steady and exciting. I felt so sorry for Close and Joe. The chemistry between the 2 was great.

The first novel, 2287 A.D., is a Kindle all-star (top 100 Amazon book) that has sold over 100,000 copies in its first year. While 2288 A.D. can be listened to as a stand alone novel (and it has no cliffhanger ), we strongly, repeat strongly, recommend you first read or listen to Book 1, 2287 A.D. It is where the characters are first introduced, and there is much to be learned about the far reaching arc of the story line and why they make the choices they do. And now, the fun stuff (synopsis): The first novel, 2287 A.D., tells the story of Ashlyn Parker and Steven Sherrah, the man who is in command of Earth's last surviving starship. He has been struggling to keep the handful of Earth's survivors alive, hiding from the most vicious and powerful enemy humanity has ever known, an enemy that is relentless in its determination to see that every last human is killed. Without wanting to give away spoilers, 2288 A.D. starts where the first novel ends. It will take them back in time almost 7,000 years. This is where the secret that Ashlyn holds is revealed. It will lead them on an incredible journey of time travel through strange new worlds, changing the history of the universe. Like 2287 A.D., 2288 A.D. is packed full of action and adventure. Personally, we hate a three-page description of how a star-drive engine operates. We hope that you too will enjoy a story that moves quickly. Members Reviews: Weak story, poorly written, annoying chimes Not sure wear happened here, first book was awesome, this one disappointed badly. Only one story line and uneventful one at that. The whole book is about single character's journey. That journey is supposed to be long and difficult, except length or difficulty were not communicated to the reader with the way various events were depicted. Overall, book needs more careful editing/proof reading. Same phrases are repeated multiple times in short succession; makes it sound like there was a lack of imagination. Audio book was annoying with "chimes" between every chapter. They were incredibly distracting and completely out of context. Chapters are fairly short, so it seemed like you were hearing them all the time. Performance of various voices sounded strained. Even with the very few characters that were in the book, it was difficult to tell who was speaking based on the voice. I'd pass on this one. Can't believe this is from the same author It's exactly what you would expect in a science fiction story if I was to write it... GENERIC AND EXPECTED. I tried listening to this at least 20 times and could not get through it. The first book I couldn't put down. Now I want to go back and see if I really thought the first one was good!

Title: Helper12 Author: Jack Blaine Narrator: Renee Chambliss Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 04-30-13 Publisher: Jack Blaine Books Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Romance, Science Fiction Publisher's Summary: Helper12 works as a Baby Helper in Pre Ward, the place where babies spend their first six months of life before they're tracked for vocations and sent to training. She does her job well, and she stays out of trouble. But one day, the Sloanes, Society members who enjoy all the privileges of their station - family unit clearance, a private dwelling, access to good food and good schools - come to "adopt" one of the Pre Ward babies. The Director makes a deal and the Sloanes walk out with a brand new child. They also walk out owning Helper12 - the Director sells her to them, and there's nothing she can do but go. At the Sloanes, Helper12 enters a world where people should be able to enjoy life - with high position and riches come the opportunity for individual freedom, even the chance to love - but that's not what she finds. The Sloanes are keeping secrets. So is their biological son, Thomas. Helper12 has some secrets of her own; she's drawing, which is a violation, since Baby Helpers aren't tracked for Art. And she's growing to love the child she was bought to care for - at the same time that Ms. Sloane is becoming disenchanted with her impulse baby buy. When all your choices are made for you, how do you make some for yourself? Helper12 is about to find out. Members Reviews: Helper12: Great Read! Preview of a Possible Future? This is what dystopia is supposed to read like. Dark, delicious, plausible and heart-wrenching. If you don't shiver in relief that you don't live there, then the world isn't painted properly. Oh, you'll shiver in this one. You'll definitely shiver. Our protagonist, Helper12, is just what her name implies: a Helper. She attends to children in the Pre-Ward, another chilling designation. These babies are still too young to be classified so they are Pre- rather than designated. But when they leave her care, they will become laborers, helpers, breeders or whatever other classification is deemed appropriate for them. Helper12, who we'll come to know by her secret name of Benna, was meant to be a Breeder but for one reason or another was reclassified, her tattoo clumsily replaced, as a Helper. Benna is sold, along with a baby, to a wealthy couple who want another baby. So she, along with the baby, are swept away into a world much like we see it, and for her it is a miracle to be in such a situation. Unfortunately, the adopted mother isn't as enamored of the baby as she was on the day she bought it and Helper12 is in the precarious position of knowing her situation will go from bad to worse if the woman disposes of them. And this is the story within the pages of Helper12. A good story it is! I found this to be a richly detailed and intriguing world, fully realized...and chillingly so...in the story. Since this is a stand-alone book, we're unlikely to get more from this world so it is well that it was so completely realized in the story. The concept of their rigidly controlled and singular lives is well thought out and very reminiscent of THX1138 in that way, though certainly more user friendly in execution. The divided lives of those who have freedom and those who do not is also well done and reminded me of Brave New World or 1984 in many ways, yet more modern in approach.

From award-winning romance author Loreth Anne White comes a story of justice, loyalty, and unbreakable bonds that is both a thrilling mystery and a moving love story. Newly exonerated ex-con Jeb Cullen is determined to prove his innocence to his former neighbors and win back the heart of Rachel Salonen, the only woman hes ever loved. Nine years after her testimony helped put Jeb behind bars, Rachels life is finally getting back to normal.

Now Jeb is back in his hometown, and hes willing to risk everything to discover who was really responsible for the crime he was accused of. But there are people in Snowy Creek who will do anything to keep the truth buried, a truth that could tear the sleepy town apart and cost Jeb everything he holds dear. Members Reviews: Predictable This book is my least favorite by this author. The story was predictable and cheesy at times. Can't Rave About This One Enough... First book from this author...what a great introduction! Loved this story line, great suspense, and character development. I loved how the story unfolded. Didn't want to stop listening, couldn't wait for the truth to come out...but didn't want it to end. My only two critiques of this story would be the narration - both narrators did a great job...I am just not sold on the POV narration - it takes you away from the story. I like the interlaced narration where the male does all of the male voices, the female does the female voices or just a single narrator. This wasn't much of a distraction for the most part, but I'd get engrossed and then a new voice comes along. The second thing is the "heroine"...she worked my nerves to the fullest at times. I wouldn't trust her with the time of day...she blabs everything! Haha haha! I love books that evokes strong emotions...this one does...my heart bleeds for Jeb...but, I don't know if I wanted Rachel for him. I purchased this thinking this was a series, but according to the author's website it's a standalone novel. That's disappointing, I would have liked to revisit some of these characters again. Overall a great book...I would definitely recommend. Exciting and entertaining. Great Narration! Wow, had me guessing all the way through. Great romance mystery book. I liked Rachel quite a bit. She said what she wanted to say, no beating around the bush with her. I liked Jeb too. He was a great character, especially after what he went through. They made a good couple. There was one sex scene, mildly written. The story line and plot was great! I really liked it. It was such a good mystery, whodunit. Lots of stuff happening all the way through. I enjoyed that the way the story unfolded it was so out in the open but kept you guessing. There were a lot of players in this mystery. As for the narration, it was really good. This book was written partly in the first person from Rachel's POV and then in the third person for all the other characters. This is my first listen by Alexander Cendense. I really liked his voice, quite sexy. Tanya Eby did a great job as usual. The men sound like men and everyone gets their own distinct voice.

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 68 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: He's trying to forget.... Alex Stewart, ex-Marine and tough-as-nails boss of the fledgling covert surveillance company, The TEAM, ditches his success and flees to his cabin in the deep woods. He's had enough. Four years after the deaths of his wife and daughter, he's been stuck in the anger stage of grief. Life used to make sense. Not any more. She's trying to remember.... Left to die in those same deep woods, Kelsey is the last thing Alex expects to find at his cabin. She's everything he's running from. Responsibility. Memories. Having to care about someone who could hurt him. To make matters worse, she can't remember her name. Neither can she explain the marks on her body, nor why two darling baby boys haunt her dreams. But Alex can.... Members Reviews: Hooked from the 1st chapter What made the experience of listening to Alex the most enjoyable? Troy brings the characters to life with his narration, his voice is amazing no matter the gender or ethnicity of the character. I forget that it's only him narrating throughout the story. What was one of the most memorable moments of Alex? Even though it's Alex's story, I love watching the relationship between Harley and Kelsey. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? When Kelsey remembers what happened, it feels like you're right there with her. It's heart-wrenching and you just want to hug her through the pages of the book. Any additional comments? This story keeps you on your toes the entire time. You're kept wondering what happened to Kelsey's children, and what her husband is truly capable of. It's amazing journey to go on with the characters, and it gets you hooked for the rest of the series! Great romantic suspense This was a well narrated and entertaining audiobook, with the story of 2 people who experience the worst losses imaginable and find each other by accident. I highly recommend this first book in a series! Great start of a series Okay, I didn't start Irish Winters' sniper series from the beginning. That truly shows the fact that the books are stand alone and can be read in any order. After reading the blurb, I decided to hold off on ALEX as it warned the reader about the sensitive topic of wife abuse and I didn't want to get a heavy emotional book. When I did go back and read ALEX, I got the gut wrenching emotions but I also got more incite into what made Alex develop as a strong character for this series. Alex was my first audio book and I know I will collect the whole series on kindle and audio versions. The narrator is very good and makes the story come to life. I admit th as t I've listened to Alex more than once. Emotional & Heart-wrenching! This is an emotional and heart wrenching story that will stay with me for a while. I cried tears of sorrow and joy and fell in love with not only two special people, but also with two amazing dogs! Alex and Kelsey are both grieving from tragic loses and both endure unbelievably difficult experiences before they can finally accept love. Be prepared for an emotional ride you won't soon forget. I enjoyed this emotionally packed story. Troy Duran does a wonderful job narrating and brings the story to life. I look forward to the next book in this series. What a tender story I loved this book.

I fell in love with the characters and the loving twists and turns woven into the plot. I love the suspense and romance and especially from a Christian perspective. A great read that I recommend to everyone! Loved it What a fantastic ending to this series, it is sad to know my old friends will not be having new adventures, that we won't be following them through their lives. Since it is time to say goodbye this was a fitting way to do it. This series is a must read. Gripping Suspense Novel I enjoyed sll of Lynette Eason's books in this series but this one was the best!! Enjoying this series. Love this series. Not too mushy romance, along with great detective, mystery challenges. waiting for the next release. Excellent narrator I love the narrator's Irish brogue. It's just as good as Therese Plummer as Parker Mitchell in Dani Pettrey's Chesapeake Valor series.

In this pulse-pounding thriller, the White House orders elite FBI operator Evan Cooper to secure Monica Callahan from a terrorist threat. But since Monica refuses all calls from her senior diplomat father, she sees no need for his round-the-clock protectionuntil a chilling message leaves no doubt. Members Reviews: Very Good Story - but too preachy in some parts Very good story- plot definitely fits into today's political/ radical/ terrorist climate - so I didn't want to stop listening - I wanted to find out how it was all going to work out. But the preachy parts did take away from it for me & some parts, especially near the end were not as believable. I might have hesitated to buy it if I had known it was christian based - but over all I'm glad I listened to it. Great story, Great narrator This wonderful story came alive with the excellent narration of Mr . Dallimore. His ability to give each character's voice a different vocal distinction makes for a more exciting adventure. Needs new reader I love this story but the narrator gave no emotions and his timing was way off. I struggled through it because of the narrator. This story is amazing but the narrator distracted me because of how monotone the performance was. Love this series I've actually read this series before but I have recently gotten into audiobooks and wanted to listen to it. I thought the narrator did an excellent job with the voices of the terrorists. Really worth listening to. Well written and the narrator did a great job. It was exciting and kept your attention. A good clean Christian story.

Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me. More lies. Those syllables and letters became my executioner. I told myself that, if I didn't acknowledge the pain and the fear, they would have no power over me. But, as the years passed, the hate and the anger left behind began to control me. Two words - that was all it took to plunge my life into darkness. "He's gone." In the end, it was four soft, silky words that gave me hope of another sunrise. "Hi. I'm Charlotte Mills."

A pulse-pounding Rogue River novella, Gone to Her Grave is the second exciting addition to the new romantic suspense series from Melinda Leigh and Kendra Elliot. Members Reviews: Rogue River Noveella series The novella series has alternate stories written by Melinda Leigh and Kendra Elliott. Although classified as romance-suspense, they are excellent suspense stories with little or no romance. Kate Rudd narrates superbly. Love these short stories. Love the plot and characters, just with they were longer. ! though. Sigh!!!. A+++++++ highly recommend!! Great book #2 in the series Another great read, compelling characters. A small town with big problems. Plus there's something brewing in the late sheriff's death. Getting Better I am really looking forward to the next book. Wonderful suspense with each chapter. Great read, D Page Good mystery The mystery was good and yes I recommend this book to people who like this author. Be prepared though to delve into some relationship problems that people in high stress jobs face. It was handled well, but I wasn't prepared to read about that in a murder mystery.

C. Andrews' strangest, most beloved books - and now a Lifetime movie! Whitefern swallowed Audrina's childhood - and now the sprawling Victorian mansion threatens her adult life, too. Audrina remembers a better time, when her husband, Arden, was a young man with a heart filled with devotion for her. He didn't used to be this ambitious, this expansive...this cruel. But then, the death of Aurdina's father changed a great many things. When the reading of her father's will reveals that Audrina herself will control 51 percent of the family brokerage, the halls of Whitefern again don't feel safe. Arden's protestations become frantic, nearly violent. And while Audrina didn't anticipate running the family business, she's curious to do so. And she can't help but wonder what had made her father change his will at the last minute. What did he know about Arden that she didn't? Trapped in the middle of it all: her fragile, simple sister - the beautiful, trusting Sylvia. Audrina promised her father she'd watch over the young woman. But after years of relative quiet, the dark days of Whitefern may have returned.... Members Reviews: Great read!!! I saw there was so many negative reviews about this book and I must say that to me it was a very good book. Arden got what he had deserved! I do not feel sorry for him quite bit. Audrina was too naive and had needed to come out from that little fantasy world of hers and be more aware of her surroundings more, but she still was a good person and I enjoyed her and Sylvia's relationship! Good after story to sweet Adrina Not really a V.C. Andrew's story line, however, it's a good story...... I liked the reader very much.... Satisfying Sequel I went into this sequel not expecting much, but it turned out to be a good read. Andrews has always been pretty great if youre looking squidgy subject matter and twisted family relationships and Whitefern doesnt disappoint. While the twists in the story are pretty predictable, it didnt take away from the my enjoyment of the story. Im not sure how to address this without giving too much away, but as the description calls Arden into question it should be okay to point out... I have heard from others they thought Arden was a bit out of character. I can understand the criticism. Hes nothing like the young Arden who was a pretty great son. Instead, hes a more concentrated version of who he showed himself to be at the climax of My Sweet Audrina. To me his characters flaws developed like a tooth with some decay that, with time and no dentistry, rots through. Quite predictable Arden's character wasn't like in MSA. Very sad. It could have been a better book. Awesome book Loved this book. It tide right in where My Sweet Audrina left off. Great job.

Yet when the rival reporters are assigned to work together on a case of murder in steamy New Orleans, the sparks fly. Matt and Laurel soon find themselves in the path of a deranged killer, putting love and life on the line! Members Reviews: Enjoyable Easy Read A fun mystery. Not an award winning novel, but great for an enjoyable entertaining read. Mediocre at best Definitely not one of Nora Roberts' better reads. Story is rather dull and difficult to get interested in. It had the potential to be a good book, but just didn't make it. Review Story was ok, not best written of Nora's selection but good enough. Narrater was not good. Horrible narrator Great story. However I don't mean to be prejudiced against people with a lisp however it is so annoying I cannot listen to this story Simple Nora Roberts Novel Any additional comments? The story itself wasn't bad. I was able to figure out the ending nearly halfway through the book. My only complaint would be how fast everything happened with Laurel and Matthew. One minute they dislike each other. The next, he kisses her. Then they have 4 drinks and kiss. The next day, she loses her virginity. The next day, their engaged. I understand that during the year prior, Matthew had feelings for her and showed it by constantly picking on her and annoying her, but still, the way their relationship evolved was way too fast.

Qualifications: high intelligence, rock-hard body, military background. Mission: hostage/kidnap victim recovery. Intelligence gathering. Handling jobs the U.S. government can't... P. J. and Cole were sharpshooting rivals on the same KGI team and enjoyed a spirited, uncomplicated camaraderie. Until the night they gave in to their desires and suddenly took their relationship one step further. In the aftermath of their one-night stand, they're called out on a mission that goes terribly wrong, and P. J. walks away from KGI, resolved not to drag her teammates into the murky shadows shes poised to delve into. Six months later, Cole hasn't given up his search for P. J., and he's determined to bring her back home where she belongs. Bent on vengeance, P. J. has plunged into a serpentine game of payback that will make her question everything she's ever believed in. But Cole - and the rest of their team - refuse to let her go it alone. Even if it means sacrificing their loyalty to KGI, and their lives... Members Reviews: Disappointed by the change of narrator. I will never understand why the publisher changed the narrator on book seven of this successful and well-reviewed series, particularly when so many of the positive comments were directed towards the performance of the narrator for the first 6 books. I have looked forward to PJs story for several books and as usual, the story was fantastic. Unfortunately, the new narrator didnt provide a performance of the book but rather simply read it, fast, without much emotion. I didnt care for the odd accent of Cole and the narrator failed to give justice to the intensity and emotion of PJs trauma as written by Maya Banks. I really wanted to like the new narrator, but it just didnt work for me. Maya Banks KGI novels are some of my favorites, in part, because you become invested in the characters, their missions and camaraderie, even more so with PJ and Cole. After listening to the audiobook, I read the book and it was even better the second time around. Emotional ride Any additional comments? Please bring back Harry. Hard to listen to because I loved Harry reading or Phil Gigante. Was not impressed with this narrator. The story is excelent but... I loved the story in its written form but I was very disappointed with the reading of this book! For myself, the biggest difference between a bad narrator and a good narrator is their ability to interject emotion in the reading. The difference between a good narrator and a great narrator is someone who can make all of the voices emotional and distinctive. What disappointed me was that this new reader seemed to have no idea who or what the established characters were about! Rio is from RIO DE JANEIRO. Hed have a Portuguese accent and if that accent was a bit much, a Spanish accent would have worked. Something distinctive! Steel one of the biggest meanest looking men on the teams had a little wimpy voice with almost no distinction from anyone else. One of the team members is from Texas. Even a bad southern accent would have been preferable. What bothered me the most is there was no distinguishing between the male and female voices. I think that if Harry was too busy to do this book in time for the coinciding release dates I would have preferred to wait until Harry was free to read this book.

While this is Dash and Willow's story it kind of continues with the whirlwind of all the drama started in Keenan and Sheldon's book with Kennedy's kidnapping and trying to figure out who's out to get these guys as they are now trying to get to anyone and everyone around them. Sometimes it was hard to keep up. There were a few times where I was rolling my eyes like, 'Are you freaking kidding me...seriously'? Especially right before the end with Dash crashing the wedding and her going through with it. I sighed with relief when she walked outside after that. All in all looking forward to the final book to see how everything will wrap up even though I will miss these guys. Awesome Great story, narration was spot on, and I'm still biting my nails with all the twists and turns. Just how much turmoil can people take? 5 "I WANT MORE OF THIS SERIES" STARS This review is for all 5 books in this awesome series. B. B. Reid did a fantastic job sucking me into this series and not letting go until I finished all 5 books back to back. I hate for this series to come to an end. There was some hot sex scenes. The story just keep getting interesting as it goes on. If you like a dark read with crazy, possessive alpha males then this series is for you. I have LoVED all of the series and this part was such a beautiful way to bring all the broken dark fairytale together Can't wait to read the last book Fearless

I recommend it but start with book one. loved this series! well written, great characters. this is the final book in the series and you should read them start to finish. the authors are great and the narrator is perfect for these! I'm off to buy more books by these authors! Great seried Hate to see this series end. Wish there were more. Small town gets brought in the big city issues. Small town girl grows up moves to LA. Stevie move back, joins the police department. Murders start happening. What's happening. Started with book #1 and couldn't stop. Not my cup of tea Trite and predictable. Began this novella but had to abandon it after the first hour. Narration was the big problem but the plot is weak and formulaic also. Not my cup of tea

Mercenaries are holding her sister hostage and threatening to kill her unless Felicia helps them steal top secret information from the Navys Special Operations Headquarters. Having no other way to access the base, she pulls a gun on the first man in a Navy uniform she finds, demanding he get her through the gate. Navy SEAL Logan Dunn just got back from a mission in Syria and is looking for a little downtime to relax. That plan goes out the window when a beautiful woman shoves a gun in his back and begs him to do something she clearly doesnt want to do. Logan does what any Navy SEAL would do in the same situation - he saves the girl and takes out the bad guys. But their actions that day kick off a crazy chain of events, including a fast-burning whirlwind romance, an out-of-control sister, an insane covert plot involving a defecting Russian pilot, a mercenary bent on revenge, and a sunrise wedding for a bride who never wakes up before noon. Getting through her sister's kidnapping will look like a piece of cake compared to what comes next. Members Reviews: You just know when it's right... **4.5 Stars** "I don't want to do it. I have to do it. But I don't want to do it." This is essentially the argument Felicia is having with herself. Unfortunately, if she wants to save her younger sister, Stefanie, she has to do it. That task involves her and theÂ Coronado Naval Amphibious Base. You know, because getting on a Navy base with SEALs isn't any problem at all. Well okay, Felicia is a wedding planner and has made numerous trips to the base for her job over the past few months, so...crap, yeah, she might be able to talk her way in. She's consoled herself with the fact that they aren't expecting her to hurt anyone, only to record a conversation. That's some good news at least, right? Logan, a SEAL, doesn't know what to think when he's leaving the store and hears a woman's voice demanding he help her get on base and he definitely wasn't expecting to feel the gun at his back. Man, going to the grocery store is dangerous nowadays. LOL Thankfully, it doesn't take Logan long to figure out Felicia needs help and quickly comes up with a plan to save her and Stefanie with some assistance from a few teammates. Even through the stress, terror, and endless hours of questioning Felicia and Stef endured, Logan stayed with Felicia the whole time, long after he was done giving his statement. Both Logan and Felicia can feel something sparking between them and her offer of a home cooked dinner in appreciation is eagerly accepted. That date goes very well, and it's easy to see they have chemistry and a connection, so Logan invites her to a cookout at Chasen and Hayley's, see SEAL for Her Protection, book one in the series. Enjoying spending time together, Logan and Felicia have gone on several dates and are ready to take their relationship to the next level. *Psst...sexy times ensue. wink wink* Unfortunately, Logan is called away on a mission the next day and it isn't until he's gone that Felicia realizes how quickly he's gotten to her. As for Logan, he's learning how nice it is to have someone worried about him, someone he cares about, but he's unsure if she'll be able to handle the reality of his job.

Title: The Unwanted Wife Subtitle: An Unwanted Novel, Book 1 Author: Natasha Anders Narrator: Justine Eyre Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 24 mins Language: English Release date: 03-25-14 Publisher: Brilliance Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 703 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: No one had ever looked at her and seen perfection - until now. Members Reviews: What a surprise! Wow... what a surprise book! I wasn't expecting such an in depth story...but wow... The female characters was surprisingly... tough... Most of these sappy romance stories have the women falling all over the man, and just ooze forgiveness after the man hurts them. Women are emotional and you rarely ever see a woman actually get pissed and stay pissed for significant about of time in these type of books. Teresa was a great character, as she found out why her marriage was horrible from day one, and the man she thought loved her, really didn't. Alexandro was a good character too, as he found out that Teresa had no knowledge of their fixed marriage, so the entire time, he was hurting her thinking she knew about everything when she didn't. Nice drama, and awesome smexyness... although it wasn't graphic, it was subtle but intense. I totally loved it. Great to see how Alexandro changed over the course of the story. Well worth a credit, buy or sale... book is not all that expensive...under 10 bucks! Nice narration... Good shift in male to female voices...plus the Italian accents weren't all that bad either... horrible, horrible narration Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? I really, really wanted to hear this book because of the recommendation of a friend. I can't easily read a whole book in print, so I was happy to see it was available in audiobook. However, this is one of the most offensive narrations I've ever listened to. I've heard young readers who should never have been hired to read an audiobook. Justine Eyre doesn't have this excuse. I have heard books she's read that have been fine, although I don't really love her voice. This narration is so extremely affected that it's actually quite ridiculous. It's not clear what accent she is trying to use for the heroine; the hero is supposed to be Italian and it's not completely off, it's just so over the top silly. But the main narration is so extremely bizarre, it's hard to imagine what Ms. Eyre thought she was doing. I know from other books that Ms. Eyre is NOT good at accents. She apparently believes that she is. I know that she records at a home studio and doesn't use a producer, which she desperately needs. I honestly hope that anyone who wants to hire Ms. Eyre to narrate will insist on having both a producer and an editor/director working directly with her. She's Canadian but even her French accent isn't good; she's been trained (at least a little) but her British accents are poor. Really the only accent she's good at is Canadian/American and if she tones her style way, way down. If this rant sounds like I'm upset, I am. The reader of a book should NEVER put herself into a book in this way; we readers want to appreciate the book; the narrator does the best work when he/she disappears into the work and is only appreciated after the fact when the listener relishes a good book that was really well read. So listen to this book at your peril.

Now she raises the heat and spices up the action with a sexy, smart, daring new heroine and a smoldering thriller that's classic Garwood and pure Sizzle. Lyra Prescott, a Los Angeles film student, is closing in on graduation and facing important decisions about her future. She's already been offered a job at her hometown TV station, an opportunity that could ultimately launch her dream career as a film editor. But heading back home would also mean dealing with her overprotective brothers, social-climbing mother, and eccentric grandmother. Unsure of her future, Lyra dives into work on her final school assignment: a documentary transformed by a twist of fate into a real-life horror film. After she unwittingly captures a shocking crime on camera, a rash of mysterious, treacherous incidents convince Lyra that she's trapped in a sinister scenario headed for a violent ending. Running scared, she turns to her best friend, Sidney Buchanan, whose connections bring dauntless and devilishly handsome FBI agent Sam Kincaid into Lyra's life. As the noose of deadly intrigue tightens and the feelings between them deepen, Lyra and Sam must place their faith in each other's hands and stand together against the malevolent forces about to break loose. No one mixes life-and-death suspense with feverish desire better than Julie Garwood. In Sizzle she burns hotter and brighter than ever, keeping the action and passion blazing till the incredible, unforgettable end. Members Reviews: Loved It I thought this book was one of her best. The characters were well developed and the plot was interesting. Best of all, it was funny. As outrageous as some of the characters were, you still rooted for them and wished you could meet them in person. Another one out of the park Well, she did it again.... just can't put it down, having to know more about the story. Keeping you on the edge of your seat... Can't wait for the next one to come out.... OMGOSH!! FUNNY READ AND GOOD LOVE STORY If you could sum up Sizzle in three words, what would they be? LAUGH OUT LOUD What was one of the most memorable moments of Sizzle? ALL THE ANTICS OF THE BUMBLING CROOK "MILO" What about Susan Denakers performance did you like? GREAT JOB WITH THE IRISH ACCENT If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? I CAN DO THIS Any additional comments? DON'T LET THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS SCARE U AWAY, SIZZLE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN THE BEST TITLE FOR THIS BOOK BUT THIS IS AN ABSULUTE MUST READ IF U LIKE JG. THIS ON ONE OF HER BEST CONTEMP/SUSPENSE NOVELS EVER. AND YES, MILO THE CROOK AND GRANDMA MIGHT HAVE STOLEN SOME OF THE SHOW BUT THE STORY LINE IS STILL GREAT. I'M STILL LAUGHING WHILE WRITING THIS REVIEW. Great story Julie always write a great story. This is just one of hers. If you like a romance without graphic sex, you'll like it. Must Love Garwood Is there anything you would change about this book? yes, the pace of reader was way too slow. What did you like best about this story? Garwood has good dialogue, wit & humor. What aspect of Susan Denakers performance would you have changed? Denaker's male voices very good. female ok.

Raised in a strict religious cult since she was a young girl, Jenna has no connection to the outside world beyond vague flashes of memory that seem to be from another life. Memories she clings to when the cult leaders discover her extraordinary ability to heal - and punish her. Years held captive and forced to do the cult's bidding have turned Jenna into a meek, timid woman...or so they think. In truth she is merely biding her time, waiting for the perfect moment to escape. When a terrified young woman tries to steal the SUV of Devereaux Security's toughest recruit, Isaac's anger quickly turns into a strange sort of protectiveness for the beautiful, bruised stranger. But when they are caught in a firestorm of bullets and Isaac is hit, he's sure the end is near, until Jenna touches him and closes his wounds. As he tries to bring Jenna to safety, she refuses to tell him what danger haunts her or how she healed him, but Isaac vows to do whatever it takes to gain her trust...and her heart. Because with just one touch, Isaac knows he wants Jenna to be his - forever. Members Reviews: Disappointing I usually enjoy Maya Banks stories very much, but this audiobook was not my cup of tea. The story had a lot of potential, but the hero seemed to mostly rant about how he would never let anything happen to the heroine, while everything DID happen to the heroine. I found the storyline a bit disjointed and the phrasing somewhat repetitive throughout the book. The narrator did an okay job of what he had to work with, but it just didn't save the audiobook. Incidentally, I enjoyed the first four audiobooks in this series very much! Really bad The narrator sounded like the guy in Dragnet and the story line was really bad. First time I've not finished a book because it was the same thing over and over with slightly different words. Just One Touch I didn't enjoy this book as much as previous ones in this series. It's not that the story was bad, but rather how repetitive the prose was. The hero proclaimed his undying love over & over & over again, promising to keep the heroine safe time after time, using the same vows each time. It got annoying, to tell the truth. I was happy when the book ended. And the narrator was a bit bland; monotone even. I won't be buying anymore in this series or by this narrator. I almost fell asleep listening, lol! Disappointing... After having read the other books in this series, perhaps my expectations were too high. The male protagonist appeared too needed with his constantly spouts of 'I love you' and 'I want to protect you' throughout the majority of the story. It was as if the author didn't have enough of a story so she decided to add these to flesh it out. A pity because the story, and the narrator, was just what kept my interest going. not the best Maya Banks The story was good but it seems that the characters went on and on with long dialogue lines through the whole book. I wanted to say stop and take a breath for goodness sake.

I couldn't stop listening! Could not take the headset off!! Would you listen to Submerged again? Why? Most definitely will listen to it again.

Dee Henderson, Ann Perry's Thomas & Charlotte Pitt series, and Terry Blackstock's Newpointe 911 series. I also thoroughly enjoy Colleen Coble as well as others in the 'clean' suspense genre What about Christina Moores performance did you like? She clearly enunciates and her voice is very soothing. not high-pitched. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I tried to listen to it in one sitting only I feel asleep and had to backtrack. Submerged Left Me Breathless Would you consider the audio edition of Submerged to be better than the print version? Though I own this book in print, I chose to listen to it because I couldn't wait until I had enough time to fully immerse myself in this story. I consider a story's ability to be translated into audio in my review, and Submerged rated high for me. Who was your favorite character and why? Cole was my favorite character in this book.

While undercover he's been shot, but he's not sure if it's the crooks or local cops behind it. Worse, if he can't get help fast, two lives will be lost - his and that of the young witness, a boy whom he's sworn to protect. On the run from both the police and the Russian Mafia, Jake will do anything to save the child at his side, even something illegal. In desperation he kidnaps a nurse from a hospital parking lot. A Woman at the Edge of Despair ER nurse Samantha Edgars has been living in an emotional vacuum since the death of her daughter. Abandoned by her husband not long afterward, she struggles just to get through each day, but now all she wants is for the pain to stop and to finally be at peace with her child. Mentally and physically exhausted following a difficult shift, she walks through the hospital's dark parking lot lost in her own thoughts. Suddenly she's jolted from her stupor when she's bound, gagged, and tossed into the back of her car. Danger on Their Heels When they arrive at her home, she's terrified and forced to tend to a bleeding FBI agent and his injured witness. But Samantha quickly learns the rogue agent and orphaned boy need more than just her professional skills. With a menace bearing down on them, she must learn to trust Jake - and her heart - if they're all going to survive. Members Reviews: Great read and listen.. This was a fun and exciting read. Yeah, Sami had some pretty stupid thoughts of attraction to her kidnapper, Jake, but her arguments with herself over them were kinda funny. LOL, especially when she called it Amsterdam Syndrome instead of Stockholm and her inner self corrected her. None of the 1 and 2 star reviews bothered to tell you about that, did they? Oh well, we all know how reviews go. By page 170 I was still really interested in the story, Samis brothers Luke and Matt just left Jake, Samis and Nickys hideout with their plan all put together so I knew things were about to get exciting. Excited to see what misery was going to come down on Petrov and the rest of the Russian mob. Personally, I wanted them all dead, after how theyd tortured Nicky! Geez, hes just a little boy, 9 if I remember correctly, but Sami had a hard time guessing his age because he was so small and malnourished. Overall, this was a terrific read, even though a little wordy, with kidnapping, murder, torture, sex and love. You really cant ask for more than that. Yeah, they fell in love quickly but you have to remember that the whole story was only a matter of days, not weeks or months. Jake had to hurry and clear his name and find the real bad guy, the one pulling the strings, so everything was hurried. And even though they were attracted to each other right off the bat they didnt have sex until 40% of the book. Its not like they did it the minute she came to. Geez! I did think the author kind of went overboard with Samis grief over Aimee. I mean she had 3 prescriptions for sleeping pills that she thought about taking? Aimee had been dead for 4 years so why was she having stupid thoughts now? A few months, a year, maybe! But not 4 years. She was a nurse, for Petes sake. Also, the italic conversations with her daughter when she was alive were a little too much. I definitely skimmed those. AND I have to admit I did skim quite a bit.

However, two meetings with two men changes her happy existence forever. First, she meets the man who makes her heart sing. Three years later, she meets the man who makes her blood quiver. Broken-hearted from a teenage romance, Noelle's freedom is no longer hers. It belongs to the stranger her father believes is her perfect match. The stranger who pulls his lies over everyone he touches. Including her. Seduced and manipulated, Noelle gives into the mysterious Penn Everett. The lies he spins, the truth he hides, the mystery he weaves - it's all enough to slowly erode the woman she is and turn her into something else. Until her past collides with her present. And it's her turn to lie. To everyone...including herself. Members Reviews: UGH I HATE CLIFFHANGERS !!! REALLY GOOD STORY Any additional comments? This was a very different romance story. It's not the typical story. It really sucked me in from the word go. The narration was great and the storyline was compelling. It's worth the credit but since there is a cliffhanger I wish I had waited for the complete series to be released. Princess of perpetual peril... Crown of Lies is my fourth Pepper Winters book. I'm a fan of her writing, but I have had issues with the narration of some of those books. Happily, this time I am a fan. This is dual narration at its best. Kylie Stewart handles the female dialog competently, while Eric Rolon is exceptional at voicing all male characters. Bravo to Eric...this is the first book he's narrated for audible and he was fantastic! His voice was just right for our hero - he really made the listen sexy. The story itself kept me interested. Enter Elle - a girl groomed to run a department store empire from a young age. She leads a sheltered life of wealth and privilege, and then one night she rebels against her golden shackles. This leads her to a mugging and attempted rape in a dirty back alley somewhere in NYC. Our heroine is rescued by a young homeless man. Fate removes the anonymous good Samaritan, and Elle's exhaustive attempts to find him fail. Three years after that night, Ms. Winters keeps the intrigue going. There's a father with a heart condition, a persistent unwanted suitor, and a wealthy and mysterious man who seems to know an awful lot about our heroine. I like Pepper's erotica. She expertly builds sexual tension in her stories, and then releases it in the steamiest ways. Talk about sex on fire! Fair warning however: this story comes to a close with one hell of a cliffhanger, so be prepared for that upset. Time for the gripe, and I've alluded to it in my headline. Poor, poor Elle. She must be one hell of an irresistible beauty because by the end of this book, she will have been threatened with rape on three separate occasions. Seriously, is she putting off some type of crazy pheromone that brings all the rapists out of the woodwork!? All things considered, Crown of Lies kept me listening - great writing and narration.

McLeod Narrator: Charley Ongel Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 12-27-17 Publisher: Bold Strokes Books Inc Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: Special Agent Ryan O'Connor's life is exactly on track-she's with a wonderful woman, and she's doing something she loves. Sure, her boss can't stand her, but she figures if that's her biggest problem, she's pretty damn lucky. She should have known it was too good to last and that when fate finally slapped her, it would do so hard enough to leave a mark. When Ryan's ex-girlfriend, Special Agent Allison Reynolds, suddenly reappears in New York, her carefully constructed world is thrown into chaos. As they're forced to work together, Ryan is compelled to confront several realities that she wishes she could avoid. One of which is that it's terrible to mix the past with the present. The other is that it's not only the past that paints the present with lead. Members Reviews: great character development looking forward to more from this writer. my only beef from the story was unfinished story lines without a promise of a sequel...maybe the book had an afterword that the audio version excluded. my beef with the narrator was the snobby voice she gave to Allison. It should have been reserved for a character you weren't supposed to like.

Curiously, Mac felt as if he were in the car with her as she sailed toward the sea, even though he was really in a hospital bed on the other side of the country. By the time Mac arrives in Portland, his sister - Dr. Jilly Bartlett, a medical researcher - has come out of the coma she's been in for four days. But after a few scant hours with her brother, Jilly vanishes without a trace. In searching for her, Mac gets a different story from everyone he encounters. When the local sheriff enlists Mac's aid in a puzzling murder of an elderly resident, Mac little suspects that the case connects to his sister's disappearance. FBI agents Lacey Sherlock and Dillon Savich (last seen in The Target) join Mac to ride shotgun, only to find their search leading from a small town on the Oregon coast to the rain forests of Costa Rica. Together, they must escape relentless pursuers as well as the hostile jungle itself before discovering the true nature of the evil at The Edge. Critic Reviews: "Coulter keeps serving up adventure, intrigue, and romance until the very end." (Booklist) Members Reviews: It was ok... I liked the book but the narrator made it feel like a cheesy crime novel with the voices; normally I'm a big fan of it but his female voices were horrid and that SQUAK! made it hard to follow, I found I was going back often just to catch what was said. Overall content was good, story has some holes but I'm willing to try the next book just to see. Disappointing. Disappointing. Very Disappointing What disappointed you about The Edge? The story line was at times interesting if not Illogical and even preposterous but the innappropriate dialogue between characters was so childish it was painful . I had the distinct feeling I was reading a novel written by a 8 grader. The narration was most annoying making the overall experience too much to endure. Sorry, but this one is not worth further discussion. Has The Edge turned you off from other books in this genre? If the Edge is typical of Catherine Coulter's writing, it will be my last read. Horrid narration! The narrator was horrible with the female voices. He made the characters, who should have been strong women based on their professions, sound simpering and weak and in need of saving. In fact some of this was the fault of the author, but the narrator made it even worse. unbelievable I like Catherine Coulter's FBI series, but this story went from okay, to bad, to worse, to ridiculous. Story ruined by narration Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? No, the narrator made the story sound like an old black and white cheesy PI movie. I read this story years ago when it first came out, and liked it. Not my favorite of the series, but I did like it. If all I had to judge the story was by this listen, I would have given it a much lower score than a 3 overall. What didnt you like about Robert Lawrences performance? The strong women federal agents sounded like whiny weak little girls to me. The only women he didn't make sound horrible was Gilly. The different men's voices were just as bad. The whole performance just sounded cheesy and old time cliche, like those old Humphrey Bogart detective movies. Not my style.

Her voice was like whiskey, smooth and potent, but it was her contradictions that fascinated Detective Boyd Fletcher - the vulnerability beneath her tough-as-nails facade. Late-night radio announcer Cilla O'Roarke was being threatened by a caller, and it was Boyd's job to protect her no matter what. But the sultry deejay was getting under his skin, and the undeniable attraction that sizzled between them concerned the detectivebecause anything could happen on the Night Shift. Members Reviews: "OK STORY LINE, HORRIBLE NARRATOR" Is there anything you would change about this book? Absolutely, main character is a winer and hostile about everything. How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable? Give the main character some common sense. How did the narrator detract from the book? She was terrible! She made the main character sound like a cry baby. Could you see Night Shift being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be? No way! Bad Narrator Bad narrator. Bought a number of Nora Roberts most of which were narrated by Rudd and only listened to a few. Normally I can listen to bad narrators but Rudd is beyond what I can even tolerate. Same Roberts story line, horrible narrator... What did you like best about Night Shift? What did you like least? The book was meh, the narrator's main character's voice was annoying. She was a very aggravating character. If that was the author's intention, then she nailed it. I wanted to smack some sense into her. Was Night Shift worth the listening time? not really worth my credit Typical Nora Roberts formula What did you love best about Night Shift? The mystery. Who, Why, Which scene was your favorite? Where main character bumps into nemisis and doesn't realize it. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Foster children being moved from place to place does effect them for life. Any additional comments? Might be typical Nora Roberts formula but I love the way she writes so I enjoyed it. Great book I loved the book from start to finish Nora is a great story teller. I cannot wait to read her next book

But when Blake defies the authorities and refuses to seek the truth, their world gradually begins to crumble. Will he let his past win? Or can Erica convince him that their life together is worth fighting for - now more than ever? Members Reviews: Male narrator killed the story William Munt IMMEDIATELY turned me off. I've never stopped listening bc of a narrator. I probably should have. It was so badly over acted he ruined Blake! And the story for me. Clearly I've listened to all the others in this series- so was interested to see what happened with this love story. But I just found myself so distracted and disengaged bc of the male narrator. Brutal. Horrible voices. The lady is slightly annoying, but I swear this guy has a cold the entire time he is reading this. HORRIBLE choice!!!! Narration not as good as the others!! I enjoyed this book but the narration for Blake was not good, his voice was nothing like the way Jennifer Stark read for him. kind of ruined it for me. The overall story was great and I am very sad that their tale is over, so glad she gave us closure. so so the story line was ok wasnt as exciting as her other books. and the guy who read for blake sounded like he was trying to have a dramatic tone.. i love her books but sadly this one was a little disappointing. No! To WILLIAM MUNT!!! William MUNT was absolutely the most annoying and irritating narrator I have ever listened to! He ruined the story every time he spoke. Do yourselves a favor and NEVER use him again!

Todd Books Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 211 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: I know I'm never going to change. I was born in the darkness, and that's exactly where I'll remain. Rome is sweet, gentle, and vanilla. But I'll change all of that. I'll show her who I really am. And slip that black diamond onto her finger. Members Reviews: Black Diamond What did you like best about this story? This book is amazing. Ms. Quinn has the ability to make you feel the passion and pain of the characters. You live and die with them. What does Michael Ferraiuolo and Lia Langola bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Perfect narrators M Ferraiuolo and Lia langola delivering their lines. Another cliffy The cliffhanger isn't bad but I can't wait for the next book. This series is sexy and interesting, exciting and fun. Michael really stepped it up for this one. His voice was gruffer when it needed to be and softer when the timing was right for that. Lia Langola was perfect. One of the best series I have listened to. Calloway and Rome are back but this time trouble takes a hold of them. Their relationship is shaken by skeletons they both are hiding. This is one intense story. I know I screamed No very loudly a few times as the story unfolded. It can take your breath away and make you so angry you want to kick something. Victoria Quinn really can capture your heart and emotions as you struggle right along with the couple. The narration was impeccable. Lia Langola truly captures Rome and all of her emotions. She helps the reader ride the emotional roller coaster Rome is on right along with Rome. Her voice is exactly how I imagined Rome to sound. Michael Ferraiuolo is the perfect Calloway. His voice melts your heart as Calloway struggles with his skeletons. How either one of these narrators read this book calmly and unshaken is amazing. There is so much emotion in this book, I know I would not be able to keep a steady voice. I want and need more!!!! **I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.** When I first got this book I didn't realize it was # 2 in a series and I hadn't listened to the 1st book. It didn't matter, I wasn't lost, I was intrigued! I loved it! it was HOT!!!! but more than just ear candy, great story, great character development. I want more detail and plan on picking up all the books in the series. Get this book! quarter of it is for the drama and the rest... s3x nothing much on chapters 1-10, s3x of course is essential in the story coz of the SBDM thing but too much is making it slow and you skip some chpters coz well nothings happening but s3x, just until later chapters where the story gets drama, conversations, conflicts... yes it's a series but still the ending was too short... clarity and emotion on narrators part is superb for me.

WARNING: This novella is a companion book to Trouble In Mudbug. You should not listen to this novella prior to completing Trouble in Mudbug. The novella contains major spoilers for the novel and would not make sense if listened to beforehand. Do you love Helena Henry? Did you wonder what she was thinking during Trouble in Mudbug, or what she was up to when she was not in the novel? If so, then this novella is for you. All of Helena's thoughts and actions during Trouble in Mudbug, compiled in a diary for you to enjoy. Critic Reviews: "DeLeon is excellent at weaving comedy, suspense and spicy romance into one compelling story." (RT Book Reviews) "Son of a gun, we're having fun in the bayou!" (Fresh Fiction) Members Reviews: Basically the whole story of the first book This is the first book told in Helena side of the story. So it is not very interesting it is not anything new this is just a recap of the previous books not worth the money. Save your money for the other books. Sad i wasted the credit. Thanks for a recap of the whole first book. Not. What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? If I could have learned something truly new about the story. It's the same story told from Helena's point of view. Redundant. Has The Helena Diaries - Trouble in Mudbug turned you off from other books in this genre? No. The first book was a light and fun read. But nothing deep enough to expect a companion book. Have you listened to any of Johanna Parkers other performances before? How does this one compare? No. You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? I was hoping to learn new stuff about the story and was disappointed. Any additional comments? Going to ask for my money back on this one. it explained a lot Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not? it was good mainly because I love to listen to johanna parker If youve listened to books by Jana DeLeon before, how does this one compare? it was kind of the same book just from a different persons eyes Do you think The Helena Diaries - Trouble in Mudbug needs a follow-up book? Why or why not? sure there cute NOT AS GOOD Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? I won't recommend this to a friend. I feel that this story was misrepresented in what it had to offer. There was no secret behind the scenes of book one, therefore, this book does not provide any new information. Would you be willing to try another book from Jana DeLeon? Why or why not? Absolutely, in fact I hope to get to read all the books in the series. I just don't feel that this book was needed. Any additional comments? I wouldn't spend a credit for this book and wish I had not. But live and learn.

Title: Walking on Water Author: Richard Paul Evans Narrator: Richard Paul Evans Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 57 mins Language: English Release date: 05-06-14 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 325 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: In the fifth book in the New York Times best-selling Walk Series, Alan Christensen finally reaches his destination. A year earlier, Seattle advertising executive Alan Christoffersen lost everything he held dear - his beloved wife was killed in a terrible accident; his partner stole his business from him; and the bank foreclosed on his home when he couldnt pay the mortgage. With seemingly nothing left to live for, Alan set out to walk from Seattle to the farthest point on the map, Key West. And now, after walking more than two thousand miles on a journey filled with surprises, dangers, and revelations, he approaches his destination - and the most important decision of his life. Romantic, suspenseful, and deeply spiritual, the Walk Series has been hailed by critics as "intriguing" (Deseret Morning News), "unconventional" (Publishers Weekly), and "definitely a journey worth taking" (Booklist). As Alan approaches Key West and the end of his quest, the revelations continue. Members Reviews: Book Five-- I'm not sure why Audible does not have this book linked to the series, but it is Book Five in a 5-book series that begins with The Walk. I loved this series--I listened to the final four books consecutively--I just could not stop until the journey was complete. I was so involved, I had to keep reminding myself it was fiction! It is well written and uplifting. And the journey's conclusion was sweet and satisfying. The author narrates all five books in the series, so I liked the consistency of the same tone and voice throughout. I highly recommend the whole series--and listening to them in order. It is definitely worth the time and credits you will invest--and I hope you enjoy the books as much as I did!! Enjoyable book I had not read a Richard Paul Evans book in years so when I saw this new book on Audible I decided to get it. I did not realize that it was the last book in a series of five books. But the author provided enough background; I quickly got the highlights of the prior books in the series. In a small way this book reminded me of John Steinbecks Travels with Charley. Our hero Alan Christoffersons wife dies in an accident, his partner steals all their clients from their boutique ad agency in Seattle and starts his own company, the bank forecloses on his home, and his automobiles are repossessed. Alan decides to walk across the continental United States by the longest route, Seattle, Washington to Key West, Florida in an attempt to deal with his grief and decided what to do with his life. He meets interesting people on this walk and lessons are learned along the way. This book opens with Alan stopping his journey at the boarder of Florida to fly to Pasadena as his father has had a heart attack. He stays at his father house and visits him at the hospital. Alan discovers a genealogy book his father is working on about their family history. He reads this in the evening and discusses it with his father on their visits. His father dies leaving everything to Alan including a letter he is to read when he reaches the farthest point of Key West. The book is mostly about his return to Florida and his continuing trek to Key West. He continues to meet interesting people including a discussion about God with a man handing out flyers for a local church. This is an enjoyable book and leaves one thinking of things greater than oneself.

Did someone throw her overboard because of jealousy? Kayli refuses to believe it, but she'll have to provide proof before the murderer finds out she's still alive and comes back to complete the job. Members Reviews: Hoax of the Academy series I hated this book! Here's a 19 year old child playing a woman with all the men in her life who have great bodies. Where was the story of this book? And where the heck is the ending? This isn't good enough to spend $20 just to have to spend another $20 and never really read a story. Forget this, the Academy series is NOT worth the money or any more of my time!!

(Publishers Weekly) Members Reviews: I'm sorry... but his is bad What disappointed you about The Cove? I know that C Coulter has a loyal following. I've even enjoyed a book or two, but... NO.. just no. This was so poorly written and so lame. Written in the voice of "Oh John... Oh, Martha" sappy romance dime novels, but pretending to be a mystery. Characters are totally unbelievable. NO one would behave that way. Dialog was so inane and the whole plot was ridiculous, a few times I wanted to bang my head on my ipod. I know you ask, then WHY did I continue to listen? I kept hoping (call me the optimist) that at some point it would take a turn and make sense or get better, or come to a conclusion that would have justified the time already invested in listening... but NO. I'm not a literature snob. In fact, I'm rather easy to entertain. I enjoy so many genres and appreciate many different writing styes. I rarely give negative reviews, fully realizing that what we enjoy is highly subjective. But, please save your money. This book is so, so very bad. I got it on sale and if not for that, I would be calling to get my money back. Has The Cove turned you off from other books in this genre? The genre? What genre was this exactly? It wasn't a romance novel, and sure as heck wasn't a mystery. It had no genre... maybe a comic strip What three words best describe Sandra Burrs performance? Sandra was fine. She isn't responsible for bad material. Her voicing and inflections were appropriate and she did her job. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? all of the above. Any additional comments? Run... save your money. Don't waste your time.Not to Coulter. Please show more respect for your readers. We deserve better from you. Kept waiting for this book to improve What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Different narrator would help this tremendously. Has The Cove turned you off from other books in this genre? Yes How could the performance have been better? I felt the narrator did not connect with the characters. What character would you cut from The Cove? None Any additional comments? Although the story was interesting, the story never really flowed. I never felt connected to the characters in any way. Average Dramatization. Insipid Characters - Skip I What disappointed you about The Cove? The story was predictable and boring. The characters were bland and unlikeable.

You get familiar with characters though out the series, and start to look forward to their book. What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike? As I said If it's not broke don't fix it. Changing the narrator detracted from the flow of the series. The same characters with different voices ruins the experience. Omg ..his voice for Steele..awful Oh my. His voices were OK until he decided to pull out a cross between Christian Bales Batman and some creepy raspy voice. I literally laughed out loud everytime he switched to the god awful voice. It is Soooo distracting to listen to a romantic scene with a voice that made it sound like a twisted scene in a horror movie. I can only imagine his poor ravaged voice after reading this novel. The story great. Everything else great....the voice distracting. Nuf said! Very good addition to the series :D 4-4.5 stars This was a very good story. I loved seeing Steele actually turn away from being the "Ice Man" and showing feelings, he ends up being a very good hero. Maren makes a great match for him and I loved seeing them get together. Steele is a team leader for KGI. KGI (Kelly Group International) is a private company that performs Ops like hostage/kidnap victim recovery & intelligence gathering among other things. Steele has always been known as the "Ice Man". He's a great leader and his team loves him (and he feels the same about them) but to see him crack a smile or show any kind of emotion is unheard of. He's disturbed to find that Maren (a doctor that helps them out occasionally) keeps going through his mind and he can't forget her. Maren is a doctor that has a clinic in Central America. She lives in the jungle and treats villagers and at times, KGI members that have been injured on a mission that come in for treatment when they're not in the US. She has a past association with KGI from when they rescued her and some others from a hostage situation so she's always is willing to help them out. She's attracted to Steele but he's always avoided her and wouldn't speak to her.

Title: Darkest Hour Before Dawn Subtitle: THIRDS Author: Charlie Cochet Narrator: Mark Westfield Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 8 mins Language: English Release date: 09-13-17 Publisher: Dreamspinner Press LLC Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 139 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: THIRDS Team Leader Sebastian Hobbs and Chief Medical Examiner Hudson Colbourn are as much in love now as they were nearly seven years ago when a tragic event on the job destroyed their relationship. The two drift together only to be pulled apart time and time again. When Hudson draws the interest of dangerous enemies, both within and outside the organization, Seb wants nothing more than to protect the man who still means everything to him. As life-and-death events, an uncertain future, and startling truths draw Hudson and Seb to each other yet again, they must make a choice: trust their love and take strength from what they share, or lose what matters most...for good this time. Members Reviews: Great for the series fans Charlie is a great writer and as always really has a way with combining action, romance and humor. Im not a big fan of reunion romances I like that initial spark too much but I did love that after all this time our guys finally get their chance to be together. Of course, there is other drama going on and more danger - as well as some more Dex/Sloane interactions and a furthering of the overall mystery/arc. For fans of the series, this is a must, and while I bet you could read this as a standalone, I think youd miss a lot. I'm glad the series is wrapping up, however, because we are starting to ease into the land of soap opera (i.e. people coming back from the "dead) and I think we've just about done all there needs to be done with this. Audio Mark Westfield is the voice for this series, so I cant really add much to this review that hasnt already been said. I thought his English accent was fine and I enjoy his little extras that he throws in to keep the narration fresh and engaging. I still sometimes struggle to appreciate his intonation, as he does seem to end each sentence in the same way, regardless of the emotion being portrayed but after awhile I dont notice it. Overall, Id give this 4 of 5 stars. still good I was distracted by the change in Seb's voice. But the plot was awesome. and the ending worth it. 5 star narration Time after time Charlie Cochet creates such amazing stories filled with non-stop action, intrigue and romance, while narrator Mark Westfield makes that world all the more richer; Darkest Hour Before Dawn, the ninth book in the THIRDS series is no exception. You definitely do not want to read this without having read all the other books in this awesome series. Mark Westfield delivers us back into the world of the THIRDS agents, namely Sebastian Hobbs and Dr. Hudson Colburn. While the story is filled with tons of action and suspense the author really gives readers a more intimate view of one of my favorite couples, Seb and Hudson. These two men belong to each other. Hudson is marked and truly mated to Seb. A tragedy in their past breaks them apart and throughout the series we see them dance around each other. In this installment we get an inside view into the hows and whys of their relationship. I really enjoy Seb and Hudson interacting. Seeing the push and pull between the two and how these guys truly pine for each other. I love seeing how close Hudson still is with the Hobbs family, especially his relationship with Sebs Mom and Dad. With Westfields narration I could feel how important and emotional being connected to them is for Hudson.

Title: Hotshot: Buchanan-Renard, Book 11 Author: Julie Garwood Narrator: Amy McFadden Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 51 mins Language: English Release date: 08-06-13 Publisher: Brilliance Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 693 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: He saved Peyton Lockharts life when they were kids - but now shes all grown up and hes a seasoned FBI agent who comes to her rescue again in the new contemporary romance from number-one New York Times best-selling author Julie Garwood. Peyton and her sisters have inherited Bishops Cove, a small, luxurious oceanfront resort, but it comes with conditions: The girls must run the resort for one year and show a profit - only then will they own it. A graduate of a prestigious French culinary school, Peyton has just lost her job as a food critic after rightfully accusing her boss of sexual harassment. Out of work and in a bad place personally, to Peyton a year doing something completely different sounds wonderful. Peyton dives into learning the resort business but is quickly derailed by an escalating chain of events that puts her life in danger. She refuses to be intimidated - until shes nearly killed. Then she calls on her childhood friend and protector, Finn MacBain, now with the FBI, and asks for his help. Finn is more than happy to do a favor for Peyton, but he doesnt plan on dealing with the beautiful, passionate woman she has become. There are countless challenges and too many people who want to stop Peyton and her sisters from succeeding. Among them are their contentious cousins and a powerful group of land developers who have been eyeing the coveted beachfront property. And it also becomes apparent that her old boss holds a serious grudge and believes in payback. While the attraction between Peyton and Finn flames bright enough to distract them both from their dangerous situation, a happily ever after ending seems all but impossible. But the well-trained lawman never loses focus: He saved her life once; now he must do it again. Members Reviews: Good story. Bad Performer I finally finished the book but it was difficult to get past McFadden's Valley Girl voice. She sounded about 12 years old and she butchered the Minnesota accent with shades of Valley Girl. Book was another good Garwood story but get a new performer! What a disappointment What disappointed you about Hotshot? I have read most of Garwood's books and so many are among my favorite books. Some I have reread more than once. This one is just moronic. Seriously. The lead female character did not report a serious case of harassment, a man attempting to run her off the road and who fired a gun multiple times at her car, etc. Her HR department tells her she can't file a harassment complaint until she works at the company for 3 months. Really. Would anyone above the age of 20 be that dumb? DUH. She had a tape recording of the harassment and apparently didn't think that was evidence enough. She fled the state and returned to her home in Texas. Still, she didn't report any of the above. Her reason was she couldn't afford a lawyer. So stupid that it hurts to listen to it. How could the performance have been better? The reader was just awful. I don't know how to describe it. Thoroughly Enjoyable I enjoyed this book. The comeuppance for the bad guys was enjoyable. However, the ending was even better. The characters were well developed and likeable, even Debbie. An easy read, some action, some romance, minor sex scenes everything to keep you interested. Narrator was pretty good. Good Story, grating voice This was generally a basic interesting story, that kept our attention while driving.

Title: Twisted Truths Author: Rebecca Zanetti Narrator: Karen White Format: Unabridged Length: 13 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 11-14-17 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 39 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: You can't escape the past.... Noni is desperate. Her infant niece has been kidnapped, and the only person who can save her is a private detective with too many secrets to count - and more enemies than he can name. A man who walked away from Noni without any warning a year ago, a man who broke her heart. But with Talia's life on the line, Noni needs his help now more than ever - and this time, she won't take no for an answer.... The moment Denver Jones sees Noni, the memories come rushing back. The fire in her eyes. The determination in her voice. The danger of having her in his life. Denver had to push her away once, but now, with vicious criminals threatening Noni and her niece, he'll do whatever it takes to protect them. But enemies from his past are circling, and they'll use anything - and anyone - to get to Denver. With twists and turns that will blow you away, Twisted Truths is sexy, action-packed suspense at its very best from New York Times best-selling author Rebecca Zanetti. Members Reviews: Narrator The narrator was very intense and I got jittery just listening to her. In the middle and end, she read it in a more relaxed tone and speed. Action, Suspense, with a Love Story Not aware that this was the 3rd book in the series, I completely enjoyed. Rebecca made sure to add just enough details to allow the story to flow and not feel like anything was missing. Though it can be read as a stand alone, I will circle back and be reading the other 2 books in the series. I'm looking forward to more details of the rest of the brothers. My only complaint is the performance side of the book. Please not that the reader did not do well, for me I felt she was a little excitable in her voice and at times felt that the reading was rushed.

Members Reviews: Fabulous Great story line and excellent reader. Wonderful characters. My first time for this author. Will be searching out more by her. Loved it!!! Down a long and twisted road. Many lives are just like that, until we get to the straight and narrow. This is my first experience with author, Patricia Bradley. I really loved the plot and its direction. The characters were so alive and real. I can't wait to check out her other published books and more in this series. Elise Arsenault was good but at first she sounded like she had a head cold and stuffy. Not the male characters just the female. Bad narrator This book would have been much better if the valley girl had not been reading it. There is a t in Martin Good mystery, good narrator... Is there anything you would change about this book? Tiny bit gruesome to me, just in the details, not that it's gory. Any additional comments? Enjoyed the mystery, which was not easy to figure out. Didn't enjoy the needless killing, but that's the way these mystery stories are sometimes :( First ever review What would have made Shadows of the Past better? Not to have been written What didnt you like about Elise Arsenaults performance? Sad Southern accents Any additional comments? This has To tbe the worst book I have ever read or listened to. Full of cliches, really bad dialogue and poor story line.

Title: Winters Heat Subtitle: Titan, Book 1 Author: Cristin Harber Narrator: Jeffrey Kafer Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 06-10-14 Publisher: Mill Creek Press Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 672 votes Genres: Romance, Suspense Publisher's Summary: After putting her life on the line to protect classified intelligence, military psychologist Mia Kensington is on a cross-country road trip from hell with an intrusive save-the-day hero. Uninterested in his white knight act, she'd rather take her chances without the ruggedly handsome, cold-blooded operative who boasts an alpha complex and too many guns. Colby Winters, an elite member of The Titan Group, has a single objective on his black ops mission: recover a document important to national security. It was supposed to be an easy in-and-out operation. But now, by any means necessary becomes a survival mantra when he faces off with a stunning woman he can't leave behind. When Titan's safe houses are compromised, Colby stashes Mia at his home, exposing his secret - he's the adoptive father of an orphaned baby girl. Too soon, danger arrives and Mia lands in the hands of a sadistic cartel king with a taste for torture. As hours bleed into fear-drenched days, Colby races across the globe and through a firestorm of bullets to save the woman he can't live without. Members Reviews: Titan turns up the HEAT! Would you consider the audio edition of Winters Heat to be better than the print version? Fantastic adaptation of the book! I felt like I was living the scenes with the characters. What other book might you compare Winters Heat to and why? I love all Cristin Harber's books. It's hard to compare her to anyone because her writing style is so unique. The closest I can compare are to Maya Banks KGI series. What does Jeffrey Kafer bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? His voice inflections really drew me in. I really enjoyed this narrator. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? YES! Any additional comments? Fantastic audiobook! Now I'm ready for more! :D Loved this book! If you could sum up Winters Heat in three words, what would they be? Audiobook listened to and reviewed by Kim for Read Your Writes Book Reviews I've read Winters Heat previously and completely loved the book. When Cristin Harber put out a call for an audiobook review I was totally game. Then I thought, "Crap. I don't like audiobooks. They bore me and the narration is cheesy." Thus, I'm the perfect person to review an audiobook, right? Yes, no. I honestly have no idea. I loved this book from the start with its larger than life Alpha hero who has a heart of gold and risks his life to protect the woman he's waited his whole life for. The heroine isn't too bad herself. Mia seems like a damsel in distress although she's anything but. She's strong with wounds of her own shes trying to overcome. She's a survivor. The secondary characters in the book, from Colby's mother to his team members are great. The book gives you hot love scenes, intense fighting, and some comic relief. What other book might you compare Winters Heat to and why? Winters Heat and Cristin Harber's books are in a league all their own. What about Jeffrey Kafers performance did you like? I think Jeffrey Kafer did a wonderful job. He completely kept my interest. Never once did I find myself wandering off into the unknown. He was able to voice multiple characters. I think he nailed the voice for Jared, leader of Team Titan.
