    A cop with nothing left to lose, Burke Basile is out to get revenge. Corrupt lawyer Pinkie Duvall has cost him his best friend’s life and his job. Kidnapping Pinkie Duvall’s trophy wife seems the perfect way to get even. There’s just one problem. He doesn’t foresee the electric attraction he’ll feel for this lonely, desperate woman from New Orleans. Sandra Brown’s flair for concocting just the right blend of passion and mystery has made her one of America’s most popular writers.

    Forced out of the Los Angeles Times amid the latest budget cuts, newspaperman Jack McEvoy decides to go out with a bang, using his final days at the paper to write the definitive murder story of his career. He focuses on Alonzo Winslow, a 16-year-old drug dealer in jail after confessing to a brutal murder. But as he delves into the story, Jack realizes that Winslow's so-called confession is bogus. The kid might actually be innocent.

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

    Fifty Shades Darker focused a bit more on the relationship between Christian and Anastasia. I enjoyed the excitement and danger as well.

    I found myself looking for reasons to get into my car so I could listen, rather than my usual avoiding driving like the plague.


    What about Becca Battoe’s performance did you like?

    Becca is a master at creating and maintaining all the character's different voices. She makes it easy to listen to.


    Any additional comments?

    Actually, I'm on my second time around listening. I think I'll listen to all three again.

    When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana’s quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.

    Story
    Would you consider the audio edition of Fifty Shades of Grey to be better than the print version?

    I couldn't say- I did not read the print version.


    How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

    Love all the great sex, but, let's get real about the orgasms - does anyone really have that many, that easily?


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

    I am usually in my car, so I do not have time to read a book. I do, however, have plenty of time to listen to audiobooks in traffic.

    Having the book read is the only way I would ever finish it.


    If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

    Something about his or her lips, his long fingers, or his copper hair.
