Publisher's summary

Madison is trying her best to escape a life of poverty. Young, innocent, and guarded. She’s finally getting ahead when she witnesses a murder outside the dance studio and finds herself in deep with a dark and dangerous criminal.

Archer is smitten by Madison from the moment they meet. The protocol says to leave no witness behind but he can’t imagine hurting her. Against his best judgment he lets her go, but he can’t seem to get her out of his head.

Like a stalker he follows her, making certain she doesn’t spill about what she’s seen.

Then one night he watches her through the window of the studio as she dances. She’s so beautiful, and angelic. He decides then that no matter the cost, or blood spilled, she will be his … his ballerina.

The female reader.

It was okay for a Dark Romance. Some parts the male voices did was a bit cringe during the mature reads, but overall an okay story.

Quick, easy read, spicy

Not a believable story, could have been a bit longer of a timeline
But still enjoyable. The narrative accents were not good.

Mismatched Narrator

Note: Authors should really be more selective in matching narrator’s voices to their characters.
The story wasn’t awful, for a short novella, but in all honesty the voice of the MMC in the audiobook, didn’t suit the tough guy Mafia image. Instead the male narrator Griswold Addams, had a noticeable NYC Jewish sounding voice (absolutely no offense, it just didn’t fit the role). That being said, his sexy-time voice was also, decidedly UN-sexy.

Good Story

It was a great short story. The female narrator was wonderful. The male narrator was also very good, but absolutely did NOT fit the character it made it very difficult to follow the story.  the love scene that is narrated by him was so cringey. He’s not a bad narrator just not the right style and fit for this type storyline

2 Days?!

Two days is ridiculous…. I’m all for morally grey, but this was a little ridiculously fast.

Cringey

I listened to the whole thing and I kept saying that if it gets worse, I will just stop but then the dog fell asleep on my legs and I was trapped. Pure torture.
