    "Spring 1873: I arrived in Japan a virgin bride, heartsick and anxious beyond measure. Yet I embraced this perplexing world with my soul laid bare after uncovering an erotic, intoxicating power I hardly knew that I, Katie O'Roarke, possessed. Japan was a world away from my tedious Western existence, a welcome distraction from my recent marriage to a cold and cruel husband. But when James attacked me in a drunken rage, I could tolerate it no longer...."

So when she’s assigned to coach People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” for his role in the next big legal drama, she refuses to fall for the Hollywood heartthrob’s charms. Even if he is the Jason Andrews.

    What did you like best about this story?

    different spin on erotic love story. This is hot and maybe the best of the 3 stories. Listening to #2 soon


    Would you be willing to try another one of Lucy Malone’s performances?

    the author's works will determine the buy. Julie James, Karen White took me over after 2 difference stories, but there were so much humor in the stories, to be fair. So I can only hope Ms Malone will do the same.

    The last thing event planner Tara Lincoln needs is the jet-set lifestyle of a football pro like Mick Riley, even though their steamy and passionate one-night stand proved that Mick is an all-star - both on the field and in the bedroom. Tara played the game of love once and lost big, and she doesn't intend to put herself out there again, especially with a certified heartbreaker. But when Mick sets his mind to win, nothing will stop him. And he has the perfect play in mind to catch this sultry vixen.

    What other book might you compare The Perfect Play to and why?

    How did the narrator detract from the book?

    not the best reading voice. The dialogue has carried the author work

    Adam, Ethan, and Ryan aren't looking for women. They're looking for a woman. One woman they know will share their lives and their beds. They're losing hope they'll find her, that is until Adam discovers Holly lying in the snow just yards from their cabin. Adam knows she's the one the minute he holds her in his arms, and as soon as his brothers see her, they know it too. The only problem is convincing Holly of that fact - and protecting her from the danger of her past.

    I have a few of Ms Banks works, some good some better. The narrator can make or break Banks stories ie: Lexie Maynard is not good.

    this narrator did a very good job


    Did Colters' Woman inspire you to do anything?

Then he opens the door to the past and to the woman whose heart he once broke. Still gorgeous, still tough-as-nails, but this time, unusually vulnerable.

    What does Karen White bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    Ms White reads Julie James books,and I got hooked on her "hey" "what" tone of voice.She really can interpretate the authors works. I looked up her reads and found Animal brother series. All three books will steal your heart

    All three books bring out the adventure in a persons heart.

    If you could sum up Rock Hard in three words, what would they be?

    Hot, Hard, Sexy


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Rock Hard?

    many, Sed, has turned out to BE very lovable! I listened out of order as I was interested in the characters and not just the sequence. this was a mistake. Each book builds to the next one very well. If you purchased out of order, no worries as Cunning blends so very well. She has done this the best so far of all the new authors I have purchased.


    Which character – as performed by Justine O. Keef – was your favorite?

    Eric, but he has so many funny lines. She does the main character in each book so very well and still manages to keep their personalities


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

    I have been listening to all the sinners books straight through. I am going to miss these guys after Eric story is published.

    Remember, these are Erotic romance and very hard core, if you do not like that genre, then
    these are not for you.


    Any additional comments?

    Not sure if Cunning is going to write Dare's story, but he is hot and not to be missed

    when Jace is always looking out for our heroine


    What about Justine O. Keef’s performance did you like?

    Much better...have all this series. I now like her or at least in this series. She does the men's voices so well. I will be ordering other Cunning stories read by Justine.

    Would you listen to Double Time again? Why?

    I own way too many stories yet to be listened to so, it will be in a library of favorites.
    This had a story outline that was very different and kept your attention. Great use of author's imagination.


    What did you like best about this story?

    lots of new information or imagination used in writing this story. demonstration of lots of different emotions, well done


    Would you listen to another book narrated by Justine O. Keef?

    Her male voice is good so her female voice is just Ok. Her female voice sounds like she is much older than the female characters she is reading. This series is good for her voice. It would depend on the story. If the story is male dominate, then yes. Female focus stories, no.


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

    yes. well done for this type of genre. Make no mistake, this is strong erotica. If you do not like male bi-sexual stories, then this is not for you.


    Any additional comments?

    Please provide Eric's story as he is just so funny and adds to the band full characters.
    Justine O Keef should be the reader.

As general counsel for a restaurant company, she can get a bug to the senator's table at one of her five-star restaurants so the FBI can eavesdrop on him. All Cade has to do is convince Brooke to cooperate-and he's not afraid to use a little charm, or the power of his office, to do just that.

    Would you listen to Love Irresistibly again? Why?

    Frankly, I just started this pre ordered book due to Jordan's story. What great lines. If you are doing anything that requires concentration while listening to this book, you will miss the humor. I have replayed the first 3 chapters as I would miss a good line and have to go back. I am laughing my head off.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    too soon to tell, but so far, everyone introduced has a great fun line or lines.


    Which character – as performed by Karen White – was your favorite?

    Ms White has certainly gotten better with this series. I thought Jordan's brother would be the best story, but I could not get into the swing of it. Listening to Jordan story was fun!! Now this story, and Ms White has got a winner here so far.

    Enjoy these stories and laugh your head off.
