    He was the one man I couldn’t avoid. And the one man I couldn’t resist. Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: Anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me. Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past - and risk breaking us apart. But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him - and us - forever.

    Would you listen to Release Me again? Why?

    Yes, Narrator was good and it's good novel.


    What other book might you compare Release Me to and why?

    Fifty Shades of Grey and Bared to You. These books are very similar. If you enjoy these 2 book series, you won't be disappoint with one. I think Damien is a blend of Christian Grey and Gideon Cross. He's pretty awesome.


    Which character – as performed by Sofia Willingham – was your favorite?

    Damien and Jamie.


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

    Yes, I listened to this book in one sitting. It was a long one.


    Any additional comments?

    I did not realized that this is a series. I am glad it is. The 2nd book & 3rd book scheduled for this year. I can't wait.

    Damien's trouble past tucked my heart. I am concern with Nikki's problem. I wonder how the author is going to deal her issue moving forward in the series.

    Damien Stark’s need is palpable - his need for pleasure, his need for control, his need for me. Beautiful and brilliant yet tortured at his core, he is in every way my match. I have agreed to be his alone, and now I want him to be fully mine. I want us to possess each other beyond the sweetest edge of our ecstasy, into the deepest desires of our souls. To let the fire that burns between us consume us both. But there are dark places within Damien that not even our wildest passion can touch. I yearn to know his secrets, yearn for him to surrender to me as I have surrendered to him. But our troubled pasts will either bind us close...or shatter us completely.

    Where does Claim Me rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    I would rate this series as one of my favorite.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Damien of course.


    Have you listened to any of Sofia Willingham’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    I listened to her in Release Me which was the 1st book of the series. I think she did an awesome job.


    Any additional comments?

    I give this book 4.5 Stars.

    It was so good. Ms. Kenner put us on the cliff hanger again. I can't until until July for the 3rd book. In Claim Me, we learned more about Damien's secrets and Damien and Nikki's relationship. Also, we learned more about the supporting characters.

    I love the interaction b/c Damien and Nikki. It's scary how they need each other for comfort or each other in general, but at the same time, it's great to see how much in love they are with one another. I love when Nikki used the term "Damienize".

    I can't wait to see what will happen in Germany. I am looking forward to listen this book again. :-)

    Preston is one bad boy. And Amanda has harbored a crush on him for forever. When she finally makes her move on him, it does not end well. But still, she can't resist him. Especially now that he seems to be pursuing her, too. No one wants them to be together. Not Amanda's brother Marcus, who is on the verge of his marriage to Low, and definitely not any of Preston's buddies. They know way too much about Preston's dark side. Even Preston realizes he's not good enough for someone like her.

    What did you like best about Just for Now? What did you like least?

    I like how Preston is responsible for his siblings. I don't like Amanda.


    Would you ever listen to anything by Abbi Glines again?

    Yes.


    Would you listen to another book narrated by Kirby Heyborne and Shayna Thibodeaux ?

    Yes - Kirby Heyborne. Maybe - Shayna Thibodeaux


    Any additional comments?

    I give this book 3 stars. I was an OK read. I like Just for Low much better. I thought Preston was sweet and responsible. Granted the job he picked was not ideal but it was the only thing he thought of that he could earn enough money to support his family. I don't get me wrong, I don't condone what he picked but I understand where he came from. I think Amanda is sweet but very judgmental and spoil at times. She has a shelter life. When she found out about Preston's job, she broke up with him. It would be nice if she tried to understand why he did it. I thought the ending was a little be haste.

    Playboy Cage owns the apartment, and he hosts a revolving door of people, in and out, at all times. Most of them are long-legged hot girls who are never there more than a night or two. When Cage’s new roommate, Marcus, enters the picture, he’s just looking to nurse a broken heart. But there’s one particular semi-frequent regular who catches his eye. Willow - 'Low' - is the one Cage wants to marry. But the two of them are night and day, and Marcus can’t see how Low puts up with all of Cage’s womanizing.

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    I would recommend this book b/c it's an easy listen and the narrators were great.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Because of Low?

    Unconditional loves of Cage and Marcus for Low.


    What about Kirby Heyborne and Shayna Thibodeaux ’s performance did you like?

    I thought Kirby and Shayna were great. Their voices were perfect for the characters.


    Any additional comments?

    A girl from a poor side of town, Willow 'Low', fell in love with a rich boy, Marcus. I heart this story b/c it's realistic but also love conquers all with minor obstacles in their way. I love that Low has a strong personality, knows where she's from, but not afraid to go for what she wanted. Marcus is from a rich family but he is independent from it. His love for Low is endearing and you can't help but root for him. I love the characters in this book. They're very likable.

    This is a 2nd book for the Sea Breeze series. I did not read the 1st book. I read this book as it and found that the author wrote this book in a way that the reappearance of previous characters were explained.

    No one can get close to John Medina, the CIA's legendary Black Ops specialist who works in the shadows of the government's deadliest missions. And no one knows the dangers better than Niema Burdock. A sharp, steely-nerved communications expert, Niema and her husband, Dallas, worked side by side with Medina on an explosive mission that went tragically wrong. Now Niema has withdrawn to a quiet Intelligence position, and a safe - if predictable - existence that has helped her heal her scars from five years ago. But now John Medina needs her....

    Ewan McCabe, the eldest, is a warrior determined to vanquish his enemy. Now, with the time ripe for battle, his men are ready and Ewan is poised to take back what is his-until a blue-eyed, raven-haired temptress is thrust upon him. Mairin may be the salvation of Ewan's clan, but for a man who dreams only of revenge, matters of the heart are strange territory to conquer.

    Who was your favorite character and why?

    I like Mairin b/c she's independent and head strong. She stood up for what she believed in regardless of the consequences.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    Mairin tried to tell Ewan that how he kissed her was wrong. Not with tongue. LOL


    Any additional comments?

    This is a good 1st book of the series. It introduced all 3 McCabe brothers and their characters. This book is about Ewan and Mairin and their journey to find each other. I thought Maya's description of Mairin's education about kissing/sex from a nun was really funny.

Four years ago, Jocelyn left her tragic past behind in the States and started over in Scotland, burying her grief, ignoring her demons, and forging ahead without attachments. Her solitary life is working well - until she moves into a new apartment on Dublin Street where she meets a man who shakes her carefully guarded world to its core.

    I think this is her 1st reading b/c I did not find any other books she had read.


    Any additional comments?

    Wow, I listened to this book. I love the reader voice with the Scottish accent. I read this book through e-book awhile ago and enjoyed it a lot. However while I listened to it, I found that Jocelyn can me such a coward at times and it drove me crazy.

    My favorites quotes: I love Braden.
    He jerked his eyes back to mine. "You look beautiful, Jocelyn." ... "But you need to put your hair up."... "Because," his voice was low, a deep purr he reserved for the bedroom, hence why I felt all the way down into my panties, "I like being the only man who knows how beautiful your hair is. How gorgeous you look with it down.:

    "I spent last night going over and over the last six months in my head and I know that you're lying to my. I know you love me, Jocelyn, because there's no f**king way I can be this much in love with you, and not have you feel the same ways. It's not possible."

A beautiful bastard. Bennett has returned to Chicago from France to take a vital role in his family’s massive media business. He never expected that the assistant who’d been helping him from abroad was the gorgeous, innocently provocative - completely infuriating - creature he now has to see every day. Despite the rumors, he’s never been one for a workplace hookup. But Chloe’s so tempting he’s willing to bend the rules....

    I like the story line. The interaction of he 2 leads. There's no holding back. The conversation is very brazen.


    How did the narrator detract from the book?

    The male voice - Bennett Ryan needs work. The narrator is awful. At least, she should try to sound like a male when reading male part. Very disappoint.

    I read this book when it was The Office. I was excited for this book to officially release. I am disappointed of the narrator.

    It's been months since Brian Sinclair, lead guitarist for the famous rock band Sinners, composed anything. Unable to write the music that once flowed so naturally, Brian is lost without his musical mojo. But when sexy psychology professor Myrna Evans comes on tour to study groupie mentality, Brian may have found the spark he needs to reignite his musical genius. When lust turns to love, will Brian be able to convince Myrna that what they have is more than just a fling, and that now that he's found his heart's muse, he doesn't want to live without her?

    I loved and hated this novel. It had many steaming sex. I enjoyed this portion of the book. I like most of the supporting characters. I loved Bryan Sinclair, the hero. He was sweet and super romantic. However, I could not stand Myrna, the heroine. At times, I found her quite annoying. I thought her feelings were really dragged out. Jeremy, the bad guy's character, was really weak. After all the build up through the whole book, his confrontation with Myrna and Bryan was really weak. All in all, it was an OK novel.
