Members Reviews:

BEAUTIFUL SWEET LOVE STORY

The whole Beautiful series has just been great and this one's no exception. Christina Lauren certainly knows how to write a book that captures your heart and, with this one, the heartbreaking story of Niall's lifeless and loveless 11 yr marriage which left him an emotionally confused and sexually stunted man is so moving. Until the strong, understanding, patient, feisty and loving Ruby slowly and carefully shows him the true meaning of love and he can finally truly embrace how to be loved and how to show love too..... beautiful.

Worth a credit? Told from dual POV's but I had a problem with the narrators - CP couldn't do male voices well and all of JC's characters, including the women, sounded the same. However, despite this it's still a creditworthy listen but it did lose a point because of it.

Naill's is a great addition to the series

Beautiful Secret brings the story of Naill, Max from Beautiful Stranger and Beautiful Beloved younger brother. And Naill is painfully British. He comes off as aloof and very proper. He's always in a suit and nothing is ever out-of-place.

While Max has been living in New York for a while running a business and getting married Naill's has been over in England running a business and getting divorced. But a business trip brings him to New York for a bit so we get to see some of our old favorites from other books, which is always fun.

Naill and one of the other guys from the company were to travel to NYC but something has come up and instead of Andrew coming along with Naill, Ruby, Andrew's intern is coming with.

Ruby has had a huge crush on Naill ever since she laid eyes on him 6 months ago. But Naill's has just started to notice Ruby. But when he takes notice things really start to heat up.

The thing I like the most about Beautiful Secret is that Naill's is the one that's inexperienced with relationships instead of a play boy. He's only been with one woman, his wife. Ruby is the one with the experience and she helps Naill's get out of his comfort zone. While Naill's is older, Ruby is his match in every way from the bedroom to the meeting room. The two really work well together on all levels.

The dual narration that Charlotte Penfield and Jonathan Cole brought to the series was amazing. I already love Cole's work as Max and now Naills. I love his performance of the two Stella brothers and look forward to listening to more of his work. Penfield is new to the series and she was perfect for Ruby. She delivers a great performance with the right mix of sexy and innocent that Ruby brings to the story. I'm not new to listening to Penfield, I listened to her work on one other audio book, Twisted by Emma Chase and like Cole I look forward to listening to her work again.

Now that I'm all caught up on the Beautiful Bastard series I'm going to listen to Christina Lauren's Wild Seasons series while I wait for the next book in the BB series to release. I wonder who it will be about.

Kate Sedgwick's life has been anything but typical. She's endured hardship and tragedy, but throughout it all she remains happy and optimistic (there's a reason her best friend, Gus, calls her Bright Side).

Sad

SPOILERS: This is a beautiful story and was very well written. The characters were interesting and the narrators did a great job. The story seemed true to life and very believable. Only problem was that it was the saddest story I think I have read in a long time, if ever. I don't think I have ever cried this much over a book and felt this empty after I finished. Totally worth it if you don't mind the heartbreak. I prefer HEAs so I wish I knew what I was getting into because it will be awhile before I get past the sad. Just too sad for my taste. I gave it five stars because everything was great as far as the story and narration goes. It just wasn't what I like to read. Totally depressed with red puffy eyes now.

Wonderful story, but...

A brilliant novel that requires a whole lot of tissue. I'm giving this 5 stars because I loved it. But I have such a hard time with the language - the f-bomb is not in everyone's every day vocabulary in real life and although I'm not against it being used here or there as needed, the frequency in this novel was a real negative for me. It seemed to replace the word "very" or "really" way too often. Just my opinion - please don't judge me for saying so. Clearly by my rating, I did not judge the book/author for it. This is just a heads up for others who might feel the same about that word.

Narration was wonderful!

I know my rating will get hate mail

I chose this book based on ratings alone. And although the story and writing were solid... I can't get down for a book with such a sad ending. Sorry people... I wish I would have been told before I started listening. I needed some little ray of light at the end of the tunnel to make this a good read for me.

*****Amazing

I'm terrible at writing reviews. I'm a reader not a writer. With that being said I feel like this book deserves praise, lot's of it. Bright Side kept popping up on Goodreads as a suggestion and I was super excited when it released on audible. By chapter 7, I stopped and purchased it on ebook and sent it to a friend. This book needs to be shared. I'll simply say to you, what I said to her. I love the heroine. She's amazing and I want you to know her also. The writing style is a little different, but don't stop reading. Because it's a truly EPIC story.

HEART BREAKING BRILLIANCE!

My goodness this book was amazing. One that you truly need to have your Mindy body and soul ready to be ripped to shreds but this brilliant book means so much to the human life. I absolutely LOVED this read. A must read/listen from me! Wonderful writing and this story just hits home for us all.

Publisher's Summary:

Cookie "Hunter" Knox was good at his job, infiltrating behind enemy lines was one of his specialties. His SEAL team relied on him to do his job, just as he relied on them to do theirs. Ever since two of his teammates found a woman that completed them, their dangerous Ops seemed a bit more intense. Cookie knew if he had a woman who belonged to him, he'd never let her go. Little did he know the SEAL team's latest mission to Mexico would change his life forever.

Fiona Storme resigned herself to the fact that it was highly unlikely she would make it out of the jungle alive. Kidnapped by human traffickers, abused, and without family or friends looking for her, Fiona knew wishing for rescue was as realistic as having a big, juicy hamburger fall from the sky. Unbeknownst to Fiona, the SEAL team, including Cookie, were on the way, but their assignment didn't consist of rescuing her.

Protecting Fiona is the 3rd book in the SEAL of Protection Series.

Publisher's Summary:

#1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Nora Roberts enchants again with this beloved classic about the passionate and headstrong MacGregor family.

Serena MacGregor had been looking for a little independence and some much-needed adventure, but Justin Blade was not what she had in mind. The stakes were high, and Justin was betting on changing Serena's mind about him. But when this fiery heiress upped the ante on the cool Comanche gambler, steamy didn't begin to describe the results....

Members Reviews:

Hated it!

I've listened to several Nora Robert's books in the past few weeks and have enjoyed all of them. and then I get this one...it was terrible! the storyline was almost non existent, characters shallow and the narrator was terrible. she read it as if she was in a hurry. Very disappointed.

Another Nora Roberts Hit

Loved the storyline. Not too crazy about the reader. Her voice and lilt seemed more suited to historical romances where a touch of arrogance is required. Again, the book itself was very enjoyable.

Love

Great storyline was pleasantly surprised with twist at the end. Another enjoyable read. Looking forward to the other books in the series.

Still a good read after 30 years

What did you love best about Playing the Odds?

I loved the introduction to the MacGregor family. I read this many years ago and wanted to hear it with the characters performed. I look forward to to other books in the series.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Playing the Odds?

When Blade discovered that Daniel had set him up with the cruise.

Did Angela Dawe do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

Yes. She did a passible job with the male voices and accents. There is something about her inflections that I don't really care for at the end of sentences but while she is not my favorite narrator she is far superior to others.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Just couldn't listen to this narrator

I have no idea how I would rate this story, because I couldn't listen to Angela Dawe long enough to know...I really tried. The samole must not have giben me enough to go on, because I would not have downloaded this recording. There are so many wonderful narrators out there, it was disappointing.

He wanted nothing at all...until he found she had everything to give.... Sunder lead singer and guitarist Sebastian Stone has everything - fans, fame, and fortune.

Shea Bentley is beautiful, kind, and hiding from the very lifestyle Sebastian has always embraced. When the mysterious, tattooed stranger begins hanging out at the bar where she works, Shea is quick to recognize he is nothing but trouble, but she's helpless to the way her body lights up every time his intense gray eyes tangle with hers. They both soon find themselves drowning in a sea of desire and passion that won't let them up for air.

Sebastian knows firsthand secrets never die, and he's not the only one who's hiding them. Loving someone always comes with a price. But will it be Shea's past that costs them everything?

Members Reviews:

It's a 9.5 hour-380 page CLIFFHANGER!

I am really sick of authors writing such long books and them being a cliffhanger! it's rude, inconsiderate and somewhat greedy IMO.

Other than that being extremely pizzed off about the cliffhanger.

The story was okay. The characters did over think things, and there was some filler nonsense.

The chemistry was good between the hero, Sebastian and our heroine, "Shea", and there is quite a bit of sex, not BDSM but somewhat erotic.

The story line and plot are good, however it seemed to drag on a bit (then the dreaded cliffhanger!). This is written in the first person from dual POV, but luckily not repetitive. (I am not usually a fan of books in the first person and this one is not that bad)

As for the narration, IT SAVED THE BOOK SO FAR (since it's not over) Sebastian York has the sexiest voice I have ever listened to. This is my first Andi Arndt and she did a great job. I feel bad for the people that only read this and did not get to enjoy the narration. They have to be even more frustrated with the cliffhanger than me.

This is the last page. "Sebastian and Shea's story continues in Drowning to Breath, Summer 2015".

So the author does leave a note that says "Leaving this book off here was a difficult decision for me...." blah blah blah..

My note to the author "Well, it was a bad decision". Just sayin....

Since the author liked to repeat words in the story like.

More.

More.

More.

Sweet.

Sweet.

Sweet.

Nice.

Nice.

Nice.

Drowning.

Drowning.

Drowning.

So many of them throughout the story.

Here is mine;

CLIFFHANGER.

CLIFFHANGER.

CLIFFHANGER.

SUCKS.

SUCKS.

SUCKS.

AHHH I feel better now, a little venting always helps

Reparative! Cliffhanger! Argh!

Performance was good (love how Andi reads stories). However, the book was hard to get into especially with the constant repeat of the same words over and OVER. It just lacked a background to the characters that left you lost in the beginning. I'm bummed! I

wouldn't have bought this book knowing it had another to follow.

Hmmm..

Good beginning, struggled through the middle and when it was getting good again... the book ends.

Title: Beta

Author: Jasinda Wilder

Narrator: Tyler Donne, Summer Roberts

Publisher's Summary:

Audie Award Finalist, Erotica, 2016

Roth and I are on an open-ended tour of the world. Roth being Roth, this means missionary in Morocco, reverse cowgirl in Calcutta, bent over the bow of a houseboat in Hanoi, slow and sleepy on St. John. Anywhere and everywhere, in every conceivable position and some I didn't know were possible. Life is pretty incredible. Until I wake up in his chateau in France alone. On the bed next to me is a note. There are only four words: "He belongs to me."

Members Reviews:

BUCKLE UP & HOLD ON... COZ IT'S A WILD BUMPY RIDE

Wow, what a powerful, intense, harrowing and heartbreaking story this is as an evil twisted bitch from Roth's past shows up which seriously puts everyone's lives in jeopardy and the results are dangerous, devastating and it does terrible physical and mental damage to Roth and Kyrie's relationship..... and their very lives.

It's an action-packed ride with no way of knowing what's next... except more intrigue, suspense, violence, twists, heartache, passion and lots of sex. It was addictive, pulse-pounding, shocking, climatic, chilling, thrilling and oh so romantic and touching.

Told from both POV's the female narrator was much better than the male because he sometimes didn't quite get into the scene.

Worth a credit? Oh yeah, Jasinda you are at the top of your field, and I can't wait for Omega (book 3) which will hopefully be the conclusion and the HEA that this loving couple so deserves and I'll be looking out for it's release later this year as planned.

Didn't Love it

What a disappointment!!! Look, I loved Alpha and I read the reviews for beta so I knew I was getting into a dark story. But this was terrible for the following reasons:

**SPOILERS***

1. Roth is a little biatch. He gets kidnapped and raped. This simply would not happen to Gideon Cross or Eliah Al-Saud. Kidnapped? Yeah. Tortured? Yeah. But chained to a bed and raped for 3 days by an ex-girlfriend? No. Then when said ex-girlfriend kidnaps Kyrie, its Roth's (one and only) personal security guard who makes the plans, has the foresight to bring money to hire help, and its ultimately Kyrie who disposes of the threat. So what's the point of Roth's existence? ...there is none.

2. STDs. They are not concerned about getting them. Look, I personally hate when I'm reading a smutty novel and just when things are getting good, the characters have to stop to reach for a condom. I'm a married woman - Condom use aint sexy to me. BUT after being raped for 3 days, I think a man should at least take some PrEP before he sleeps with his girlfriend again. Just sayin'. That whole scene, I found myself wishing for a condom to magically appear. ***shudders***

3. The narration is bad. Tyler what-his-face sounds bored. No inflection in his tone, nothing to distinguish which character is speaking. I let my husband listen and he said is sounded like the guy was reading the news.

In short, if you liked Alpha, don't read Beta. If you didn't like Alpha, you won't understand Beta. So bascially, no one should read this.

Loved it!

Great story. Edge of your seat storyline. Love the narrators. Anxiously awaiting Omega! Thanks Jasinda!

A half completed story.

A detailed account of erotic exploits with a mafia type subtext leaves you flat in the middle of the story. Want to find out how it ends? Buy book three, four and five .

When he suggests a little companionship with no strings attached, Grace is eager to take him up on his offer, and the two enjoy... getting to know each other. But things get complicated when Grace's past catches up with her, and she knows that's not what Troy signed up for.

Faced with losing her, Troy realizes Grace is more than just a friend with benefits. He's determined to help her fight for the life she always wished for but never believed she could have - and maybe they can find real love along the way.

Members Reviews:

4.5 One Wish Stars

All kinds of YES!

I loved getting Graces story there was just something about her that I wanted to get to know better.

And Troy he deserved to find someone who was going to make him happy. Iris just wasnt that person and I am very glad he wasnt left pining over her and that their friendship is just as strong.

Grace had an incredible story to tell, I never would have guessed. And I never saw an almost 30 year old virgin either but it makes sense with how she grew up.

Sigh; what a great story.

Therese Plummer is AMAZING! Enough said.

*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

Left me hanging

The over all story is good. The love story between Grace and Troy is good, and finding out who Grace really is, but the ending just left me cold. Some might say it was okay, but I was left feeling like, that's it? Well ok. Maybe we'll learn more in the next book.

Love the narrator of this series

Somewhat predictable but still my favorite audio series author and narrator I can't wait for her next one to come out!

Sweet

So glad Robyn was back with another classicThunder Point series novel. I think this one might be one of the sweetest ones of all. I think I may know several ways she can go with her next novels. She has the possibility of 3 storyline in my opinion. I have been listening to a lot of murder mystery novels lately, and it was nice to listen to something with a positive twist to it!

I fell in love with reading through Robyn Carr, and am always anxious for each and every novel she writes!

great narrating on a tired theme.

eh, still human, but getting pretty fairytale-ish. The narrator is the best part, Plummet has a gift. I wish she read for more of my favorite authors.

Members Reviews:

Oh Baby Boy you are a HOTTT RUSO

Any additional comments?

The narration was excellent and so funny. This is one of my got to books. I listen to it at least once a month because I loved every aspect. You are on the edge of your seat from the first word. Rich Russian with a huge ego find his sexy little mommyyy. I want more like this one. Narrator rocked every sentence.

Had to read the damn thing 5 times!

What made the experience of listening to The Master the most enjoyable?

The narrator was amazing and the descriptive way the author wrote made you visualize everything! HOT HOT HOT!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Master?

All of the very racey sex scenes. (LOT's of them)

Which character as performed by Kimberly Alexis was your favorite?

Maxim and Kat I loved Kat's personality.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Where do I start? Jesus..... smh....

Love Kresley Cole!

Can't wait to read Dimitri's story in book #3 of the game maker series. I know it will be HOT!!

Sinfully Seductive

Admittedly Kresley Cole is my favorite author, so when this book became available I immediately dove in to this sinful and erotic tale. I dont really enjoy BDSM stories (the market is saturated now) but I loved The Professional so this was a must listen for me. WOW! I think my iPhone almost melted with this one. This was a hot and steamy listen with tons and tons of sex. Fortunately it wasnt the repetitive kind or sex just for the sake of sex on paper. It was part of the story and nothing was too over the top (at least for a super erotic Russian mafia fantasy). I absolutely love Ms. Coles writing and this one did not disappoint.

On a side note, Im thrilled the publishers released this as a complete book and not in the serial format like The Professional.

Publisher's Summary:

When Dee Dawson meets sexy, mohawked guitarist Joel Gibbon, she knows it won't be long before she has him wrapped around her finger. No guy has ever been able to resist her--but Dee's met her match in a player like Joel.

Dee's not the relationship type--not after seeing the pain love has caused her friends and family--yet she's desperate to make Joel want her more than anyone else. He quickly becomes an obsession, and when a reckless attempt to make him jealous ends in disaster, Dee turns into the damsel in distress she never wanted to be. With her carefree world crashing down around her, the last thing she needs is Joel's pity.

But Joel is suddenly determined to prove he cares, and no matter how hard Dee tries to push him away, he refuses to let her shut him out. Now the girl who swore she'd never say those three little words must choose between guarding her heart and losing Joel forever--or falling head over heels for the tattooed rock star of her dreams.

Members Reviews:

It just gets better and better!

Another great book in this series! I was so excited for Dee's story and it did not disappoint! It was a little too drama filled but it was HOT which made up for it. Dee is the wild BFF, she is confident and fun on the outside but a little damaged on the inside. Joel is a damaged rock star who likes to have fun with Dee but never seen her coming when it came to his heart! Surprisingly I found Dee & Joel to be very realistic, I could see a couple like this colliding! These two are funny, hot and sweet when they are together. I loved how they were with each other when they were alone. I also really like this group of friends, they are there to nudge each other when they need a nudge. This book left me feeling happy and wanting more!

Arielle DeLisle did a great job narrating this book. She does a great job for both Dee & Joel! Again they added a male narrator for just a chapter at the end which i could do without but I do like Kirby Heyborne but again he just didn't fit as Joel for me!

Wow!

This book was so much fun. A perfect example of New Adult. Loved the chemistry between all the characters. Can't wait for the next one.

" I'm Seriously f***ing in love with you...."

Hero is flawed (and a man whore), however he has met his equal!!! This story came off as real to me. The heroine was so damaged and messed up, surprisingly together with the hero, perfection. It was a great listen, read well.

Great addition to series

Any additional comments?

The narrator did a good job. Her voice matched the age of the heroine and the other characters were also done well.

This book was not sweet like Mayhem, but the characters are not what you would call adorable like Adam and Peach, so that is to be expected. But Adam and Peach had their story, so we want a different experience. We first met Joel and Dee in Mayhem and knew before going into Riot that a charming story was not in the cards for these two. Joel sleeps with a different girl or girls every night. He always has someone new hanging off of him whenever Dee sees him; even after they hooked up in the first book. Joel has no plans to change his man-whore ways. Dee is the female version of Joel in that she has sex with different guys on a regular basis and never lets herself feel anything for them. She likes to capture their attention, their hearts, and then dump them and move on.

In this novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts, diamonds can be a girl's best friend...or her worst enemy.

Surely she wasn't a criminal--but then what on earth was she doing with a bag full of cash and a stunning blue diamond as big as a baby's fist?

Members Reviews:

Sex over plot

Book had a good start. Kept one wondering what was up Fairly good story line but after the first half it seemed that the author had to add to the length of the story and did so through verbose sex encounters. So much so that it became boring.

I would have given higher rating if story had stayed on point

Not the best but not the worst

It was a little slow for me & sort of easy to figure out. But I would read more Nora Roberts books.

Dated, pleasant

The book was published 20 years ago. Perhaps that explains what I would call shocking and sensitivity to the boundaries necessary for vulnerable woman. The private detective takes her home and woos her even though she has no memory of who she is and is emotionally fragile. Of course that part of the story turns out fine in the end. But in this day and age, it represents a gross misuse Power in a relationship and in real life wouldve been unimaginable.

That being said, this has the Roberts romance and sex. The story simple. I appreciate that she did not drag it out longer considering what needed to be said. On the other hand, I do enjoy longer more involved books. A pleasant diversion.

Nora Roberts hidden star

Loved y

This book very interesting thank your. W

Love Nora Roberts love to hear more of her books very suspeceful I have listened to a lot of her books

Absolutely Breath Stealing

I'm a Nora Roberts fan and this certainly didn't disappoint. it is one I will listen to again and again. The characters and the story are both really strong.
