"Not what I expected..."
I'm not a big fan of historical romance but enjoyed some of Sylvia Day's other books. The story was a little slow in the beginning but eventually picked up some. It took me a week to finish rather than 2 days like I do with other books. I've read better historical romance books, however the narrator did a great job with the characters.
"Oh My!"
sexy hot hot hot. It has great sex, it has relate-able women's logic, and there is the spice of adventure. It was a great escape for me. The perfect thing to listen to in the tub. It was the perfect flow there was no teasing for the one generic hot moment there was the right amount of teasing and lots of good sex. The best part was it was not a penthouse smut there is depth to the characters.
"Would have been better with a different Narrator"
A better narrator.
The story line sounded great but I could not get past the narrator's horrible performance.
She can not do male voices at all and her accents are hard to understand. I could not follow the story.
The story was not bad but I could not get past the narrator's performance.
It would be great if you could pick the narrator so the ones you know you do not like, do not ruin a good book.
"Love love love Justine Eyre"
I love Justine Eyre. Her voices for the characters bring them life. I also like Sylvia Day's books. They are steamy and fun.
Any of the other books in this series
Everything
Some like it hot!
"Not bad for what it is"
It's an entertaining listen with a fairly engaging story line. Definitely a guilty pleasure.
It's a romance novel and an entertaining one at that. If you're looking for sophisticated story telling, look elsewhere. If you like the genre, it's worth a listen.
Love novels, love to laugh.
"Courldn't Get Through It"
I couldn't listen to this book. I found it boring, didn't like the narration, and found it dragged. I see where others have said it picks up a little, but I couldn't wait for it. Audible and I have been attached for several years and this is only the second book I couldn't get through.
Mom in Training
"Yes please!"
Hot, sinful romance.
Classic Sylvia Day.
Her narration brings male and female characters to life-never forced or faked.
Ask for it-suits it well.
Great book and narration. Steer clear of male narrators with Sylvia Day...they ruin her stories unfortunately....
Say something about yourself!
"Loved Listening to every minute of this book."
When I started listening to this book I stopped after a couple of minutes because the accent was too strong. A couple days later I decided to start listening again and after the first chapter I could not stop listening. I love how the relationship between Marcus and Elizabeth develops from lust to actual love. Great historical romance novel.
I did not care for the narrator
"Graphic Not Romantic"
I found little to recommend Ask For It. The story line was thin, the characters' actions unbelievable, and the content too sexually graphic for my taste.
If you want to read a Fifty Shades of Grey wanna-be series, then you will probably enjoy this one by Sylvia Day much better than I did.
Mother of 3, grandmother of 6, retired nurse and substance abuse counselor. Thrilled to have the time to read or listen to books again.
"enjoyable"
very erotic book filled with lots of intimate scenes, a weak story line but so filled with intimacy that it holds your attention. if you like that sort of thing in book.
the narrator is extremely annoying though.
