    Nothing incites Marcus more than the primal hunger roused by his former fiancée, Elizabeth. It’s been years since she jilted him for another man, but that only means there’s a lot to catch up on, a lot to make up for, and that he’s going to enjoy every sweet moment.… The same drive and passion that sent her into another man’s arms is what brings Elizabeth back to Marcus. Her attraction to him is the one thing she fears, but she’s run out of options. Resisting is impossible. But does she have the courage to surrender everything?

    If you could sum up Ask for It in three words, what would they be?

    Old Old school


    What did you like best about this story?

    The story was good, I liked the plot, and the characters.


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

    The accents were good and I generally don't like books with accents bec/ they tend to be bad. This narrator did a really good job w/ male and female voices.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    When Marcus confesses his love for Elizabeth. i thought FINALLY!!!!


    Any additional comments?

    Great narration!!!

    The worldwide phenomenon continues as Eva and Gideon face the demons of their pasts and accept the consequences of their obsessive desires.... From the moment I first met Gideon Cross, I recognized something in him that I needed. Something I couldn’t resist. I also saw the dangerous and damaged soul inside - so much like my own. I was drawn to it. I needed him as surely as I needed my heart to beat. No one knows how much he risked for me. How much I’d been threatened, or just how dark and desperate the shadow of our pasts would become.

    What was one of the most memorable moments of Entwined With You?

    What about Jill Redfield’s performance did you like?

    She's a great narrator as she was in part 1 and 2: great voice, tone, and emotion.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    Yes, this was supposed to be a trilogy and I felt the book should have had a proper ending.


    Any additional comments?

    I understand other's comments about the book's ending. It was marketed to be a trilogy and it should've ended. If the author wanted to continue their story, she should of did a bonus book or follow-up section. With that said, I'm curious to see if this book ever wraps up, what happens with Carey.

Only a few people know the truth, including her two officer lovers - so why can't she stop thinking about handsome Corporal Andrew Southey instead? Isobel has to keep her wits about her and her erotic fantasies hidden so she doesn't blow her cover.

    Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

    No because the book felt rushed. I couldn't believe it ended when it did.


    Would you ever listen to anything by Victoria Janssen again?

    I don't think the voices were good.


    What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

    The female voice was fine but the male voices were terrible.


    Could you see Under Her Uniform being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

    No I don't see this being made into a movie.

    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?

    Where does Backstage Pass rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    It ranks among the top. Though I'm not a fan of rock n' roll, I could totally imagine this band and all the sex episodes between them. It was crazy but I'm sure all this goes and and more with groupies on a tour bus.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Master Sinclair was my favorite. A hopeless romantic rock star who wears is heart on his sleeve??? You gotta love em'... The scondary characters were good too so I can't wait to learn more about the others.


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

    No one in particular. She did a good job distinguishing all the voices.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    It was funny, sexy, erotic, skanky, etc... all that rolled into one.

    Rowan Cassidy likes to be in charge - especially in her personal life. As a mistress at Club Privé, the most exclusive bondage/S & M club on the West Coast, Rowan can live out her dominant fantasies safely, and with complete control - until the night Christian Thorne walks in. Self-confident and sophisticated, he’s a natural dominant if Rowan’s ever seen one. Yet she can’t stop thinking about him and imagining his touch.

    Is there anything you would change about this book?

    I would change the way the book was written. The chapters were some what choppy and cut short.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Decker and April. Decker seemed more intersting than the main lead male.


    Which character – as performed by Madison Cole – was your favorite?

    April bec/ even though she was new to the scene, she had herself more together than the so called veteran/main character of the book.


    What would have made this romance irresistible?

    Better flow to the story, more background on the characters.

    In the wild, when a wolf knows its time is over, when it knows it is of no more use to its pack, it may sometimes choose to slip away. Dying apart from its family, it stays proud and true to its nature. Humans aren’t so lucky. Luke Warren has spent his life researching wolves. He has written about them, studied their habits intensively, and even lived with them for extended periods of time.

    What was one of the most memorable moments of Lone Wolf?

    Can't say without spoiling the book but there were a few shockers.


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

    Luke's enthuasim as he talked about the wolves.


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

    No, but I enjoyed reading it.


    Any additional comments?

    I read this book as a book club selection. I was not excited to read it after reading the reviews (which were all over the place). Once I got into the book, I really enjoyed the family dynamics and couldn't wait to learn the outcome of the book. Luke was a piece of work!!!!

    Catherine has been enjoying the single life for long enough to know a good catch when she sees one. Gorgeous, charismatic, spontaneous – Lee seems almost too perfect to be true. And her friends clearly agree, as each in turn falls under his spell. But there is a darker side to Lee. His erratic, controlling and sometimes frightening behaviour means that Catherine is increasingly isolated. Driven into the darkest corner of her world, and trusting no one, she plans a meticulous escape.

    Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

    yes, I knew knew what to expect with Lee. With friends like hers, who needs enemies??? Great twist!!


    Have you listened to any of David Thorpe and Karen Cass ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    No I have not.


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

    No. I have to take some mental breaks.


    Any additional comments?

    This book is intense. The back/forth from past to present got on my nerves initially but I got used to it mid way. The narrators was good and the male made me love Lee as much as I wanted to hate his charactre and the things he did. If you have a history of domestic violence (at any level), this book will definitely trigger some past emotions. I feel bad for people in this situation!

    Gideon Cross: As beautiful and flawless on the outside as he was damaged and tormented on the inside. He was a bright, scorching flame that singed me with the darkest of pleasures. I couldn’t stay away. I didn’t want to. He was my addiction…my every desire…mine. My past was as violent as his, and I was just as broken. We’d never work. It was too hard, too painful…except when it was perfect. Those moments when the driving hunger and desperate love were the most exquisite insanity. We were bound by our need. And our passion would take us beyond our limits to the sweetest, sharpest edge of obsession.…

    Eva. great voices tho her moms voice was annoying.
