"Just OK"
While this story was easy to listen to I wasn't really drawn into the characters. I was rooting for Luscious to come out victorious but I wanted it to be because she built a solid life for herself and proved Make$ and Goldie couldn't keep her down. I loved that she built a business with her cousin and Michel but I wish more would have been put into their business and making it successful than on Luscious making one bad decision after another. The story could have been just as strong without the childhood drama. She brought on a lot of her own drama by her actions and the police detective was overkill to me.
"Undecided"
When I listened to "On Dublin Street" I fell in love with this author. So when this book came out I quickly purchased the book. While I enjoyed the narrator, I felt she was a good match for this book, I found my mind drifting. While I could relate to a strong woman who does what needs to be done to protect her brother and still care for her mother I couldn't engage with her at all.
I am glad I listened to the book but it won't be one that I re-listen to or make my list of favorites as her first book did.
"Great Listen"
I definitely have to say this story surprised me on many levels. I loved the development between the main characters and their evolving relationship. It wasn't instantaneous and they had to work through their pre-conceived ideas of each other. I really enjoyed the narrator and I didn't feel the voice changes between characters were too close to identify each character. As for the physical relationship between the 2 men, it was very tastefully written.
If your looking for a book that is action packed and center's around the law and taking down a drug dealer this story is not for you. If you are looking for great character development and an engaging story then this book is well worth your credit. As I was looking for a great story this book definitely exceeded my expectations.
"Easy Listen"
If you are looking for a light easy listen this is a good choice. It was easy to listen to and flowed well. The content was very light hearted and the characters were easy to like.
"Yummy"
I was not sure I would purchase this book based on the 4 person love triangle but I took a chance after reading the reviews and I am so glad I did. In my opinion this is a hard story to write and make it sustainable but Maya Banks did an awesome job. I love that it wasn't easy and they all had to work through growing pains as well as dedicate themselves to making the relationships work. Maya Banks did a great job at showing the complexities that would come with this type of relationship. I also enjoyed that the story wasn't just about the sex, although there are some great scenes. I think Adam Paul was a great choice for the narrator, I don't think I would love the book if it had been narrated by a female. I definitely would recommend this book to others.
"Enjoyed"
I was interested going into this book based on the mixed reviews. I found myself loving the book and waiting for the next thing to happen. There were times Taryn drove me nuts with her constant winning over the photographers and fallback from being a superstar but at the same time I could understand why she was overwhelmed. I loved Ryan's venerability in this book and how he put his heart on the line for Taryn.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and would recommend this to other readers.
"Another Winner"
I love this series, love Kristen Potter narrating this book and am really looking forward to more installments. This wasn't my favorite of this author but it was still great to listen to.
"Loved Loved Loved"
This is the first book from this author I've read (listened to) and I am completely in love with this book. I loved every minute of the book and I was hooked the entire book. I will be recommending this book to my friends and adding this author to my favorite author list.
"Delicious"
I don't know if it was just the narrator or the story line but I could not get into this book at all. The narrator made me cringe throughout the first 3 hours which is all I could get through before I had to stop listening.
"Walking Disaster"
I am really glad I bought this book instead of book 1 after reading all the reviews. I don't think I would have been able to finish this book if I had to listen through Abby's perspective. I enjoyed this book much more than I expected and am glad I took a chance.
"HOT"
I wasn't sure if I would love this book but I did. The narrator was perfect for this book and I was immediately drawn into the book. I loved that Chloe wasn't a pushover and she gave as good as she got from Bennett. I definitely would recommend this book.
