    Being the third book in the series, I think I loved this book as much or maybe more than the first two. Lots of hot romance, wonderfully suspenseful action, intrigue, murder and some violence.

    Hunt & Sophie's story includes the other characters from Book 1 & Book 2 making it hard to decide which series HUNK I lust, I mean like the best.

    OMG, the narrator's sexy male voice... Doesn't get much better.

    Buy all 3 books in this series for an exciting sexy listening adventure!

    For almost two years now, Kiera’s boyfriend, Denny, has been everything she’s ever wanted: loving, tender, and endlessly devoted to her. When they head off to a new city to start their lives together - Denny at his dream job and Kiera at a top-notch university - everything seems perfect. Then an unforeseen obligation forces the happy couple apart. Feeling lonely, confused, and in need of comfort, Kiera turns to an unexpected source - a local rock star named Kellan Kyle. At first, he’s purely a friend she can lean on, but as her loneliness grows, so does their relationship. And then one night everything changes....

    Lucy Delacourt's temp position isn't quite her dream job but it pays the bills. The highlight of her day is riding the elevator in the mornings with a handsome stranger. Tall, dark, and sexy as hell, Lucy knows he's way out of her league, but a girl can look, right? Everything changes the day the stranger seduces her. Completely out of character, she yields without a fight, but she has no idea her wanton acts with a man whose name she doesn't know will change her life forever. Because the sexy stranger is none other than Jeremiah Hamilton, billionaire CEO of Hamilton Industries, and one taste isn't nearly enough to satisfy his need.

    WOW!

    I downloaded this book a while back and put off reading because I had become weary of the 50 Shades scenarios. The author, Sara Fawkes blew it out of the water! Who is she and why did I not know about this new series?

    Well, "Anything He Wants" is a very hot sexy read but written with the intelligence missing in 50 and other copy-cats. A well developed and exciting plot packed with heart-stopping suspense, murder, kidnappings places this story way ahead of 50 and the other knock-offs. All the characters are well developed, defined, vivid, interesting and exciting. I was pleasantly surprised and now definitely hooked on the series. LOVED IT!

    Also, I LOVED the way it ended...Leaving you on the edge of another suspenseful, well developed PLOT for book #2. I can hardly wait for book #2 this summer, 2013.

    DEFINITELY worth a credit. You will not be disappointed. Hurry and download today!!!!!

    He counts her smiles every day and night at the train station. And morning and evening, the beautiful commuter acknowledges him - just like she does everyone else on the platform. But Blake Hartt is not like the others...he's homeless. Memories of a broken childhood have robbed him of peace and twisted delusions into his soul. He stays secluded from the sun, sure the world would run from him in the harsh light of day....

    Story

    First of all, the narrator did a wonderful job.
    I loved the first half of this book. I would have given it 9 stars until the author seemed to lose her focus mid-way.

    Girl meets homeless man, helps homeless man, falls in love with homeless man, homeless man moves in with girl, girl has a bully, psycho ex-boyfriend then the story falls apart. I was so disappointed.

    It seemed the story climax was midway, then slid down the mountain with a crescendo, so to speak. Perhaps he story should have ended about two-thirds the way through.

    There is a Poughkeepsie #2 due out this year. I am hoping the author will tie up a few dangling characters' futures and elaborate more on the 3 "brothers by choice". I will definitely purchase it.

    I do recommend this book because I enjoyed the sweet love story. I admit I did cry as parts were most touching, I laughed and enjoyed the suspense.There were some sexy scenes well done.

    It was a good read and worth the credit. I'm looking forward to the sequel.

His task is to punish the Fallen - angels who have become vampires - and command a restless pack of indentured lycans. But Adrian has suffered his own punishment for becoming involved with mortals - losing the woman he loves again and again. Now, after nearly 200 years, he has found her: Shadoe, her soul once more inhabiting a new body that doesn’t remember him. This time he won’t let her go.

    Sylvia Day, Please do not write paranormal romances. Stick to contemporary Gideon Cross & the Crossfire Series!!!! You rock those books.

    The narrator did a fine job.

    I could not get into this book. Paranormal is not this author's forte', by any means.

    As a huge Sylvia Day fan, I feel so ashamed... But this book did NADA for me.

    Looking forward to Book #3 of the Crossfire Series....YEAH Sylvia!!!

    Elijah Reynolds is the most dominant of lycans, a rare alpha whose skill on the hunt is surpassed only by his primal sexuality. When the lycans revolt due to the iron fist of angelic rule, he steps into command, becoming both enemy and coveted ally in the conflict between vampires and angels. Vashti is the second most powerful vampire in the world, a lethal beauty who has left a path of devastation in her wake. Tasked with proposing an alliance between vampires and the lycans who killed her mate, Vash approaches Elijah, whose need to avenge a friend demands Vash’s death even as his passion demands her surrender.

    Being a Sylvia Day- Crossfire fan, I suppose I was expecting too much. This book did not deliver anything for me. I listened to 3 chapters and turned it off.

    After reading J.R. Ward, paranormal writers must really produce something spectacular as well as smart. This book was neither. The narrator did a nice job, but other than that, save your credits for her next Crossfire installment.

Disavowed from his bloodline, shunned by the aristocracy, he has finally found an identity as one of the most brutal fighters in the war against the Lessening Society. But his life is not complete. Even as the prospect of having a family of his own seems to be within reach, he is empty on the inside, his heart given to another....

    Story

    First of all, the Narrator is the best in the business!!! Jim Frangione IS the BDB!!! Once you hear his beautiful baritone voice, each and every Brother imprints into your mind and is always with you when you read/listen. I own all the audiobooks as well as the Kindle e-books.

    I loved the boo, immediately falling in love with the many stories, new characters and budding relationships within this book. Being a hardcore BDB fan, and having said that, the explicit gay M on M sex was a little too much for this "meaty-irish-catholic" girl. I knew it would be such and I read at my own choice. This is just a warning to those who might be offended, which I wasn't, but even for me, it was a bit too,too.

    To sum up the high recommendation to any new BDB recruit....Read all 12 books in sequential order or the stories will mean nothing to you. BDB fans read ALL the books MANY times over. I believe this book also will be a "multiple-read/listen" for BDB lovers.

    Looking forward to installment 13. Must we wait a year???

    Escaping a horrible marriage, Carolyn Connor has no desire to think about men - a vow she's determined to keep while on vacation in St. Lucia. She'll take the Caribbean sun and sea and plenty of tropical drinks with those cute umbrellas poolside, thank you. She absolutely does not need male company, no matter how tan and rock-hard his body may be. Easy enough, but then Carolyn meets the charming Marguerite Argeneau, who is infamous among her family for her matchmaking prowess.

    The narrator did an excellent job with a very thin, weak story. The writing was adolescent, characters were somewhat developed but the author totally missed the mark on the story line.

    I did not finish this book. I became weary waiting for the obvious. Vampire loves girl, girl finds out he's a vampire, girl decides she wants to be a vampire, girl decides she loves vampire... Nothing new or exciting. Don't waste a credit. Sorry to those of you who enjoyed this book.

    After a slow summer of chasing low-level skips for her cousin Vinnie's bail bonds agency, Stephanie Plum finally lands an assignment that could put her checkbook back in the black. Geoffrey Cubbin, facing trial for embezzling millions from Trenton's premier assisted-living facility, has mysteriously vanished from the hospital after an emergency appendectomy. Now it's on Stephanie to track down the con man. Unfortunately, Cubbin has disappeared without a trace, a witness, or his money-hungry wife. Rumors are stirring that he must have had help with the daring escape...or that maybe he never made it out of his room alive.

    Perhaps the #3 top earning author in the world has run aground with her Stephanie Plum stories. After many attempts to get through this book, finally made it to the finish line. Felt as if I had run a 10K. Redundant story lines with no new characters of interest.

    Not sure I would purchase #20. I own ALL 19 and her other audio books available but may stick to her new 'Wicked' series and abandon Stephanie Plum. Sorry J.E.

While Jack and Eddie are off seeing the world, buying up businesses and building wildly successful careers, Caroline's stuck at home frightening off the men her mother hopes will ask for her hand in marriage. When her mother sets her sights on the questionable Lord Bremerton as a possible suitor, Caroline struggles with her instincts and the true nature of her heart. She longs for adventure, passion, love, and most of all...Jack Culhane, an unconventional Irish-American bachelor with new money and no title.
