But desire for Christian still dominates her every waking thought, and when he proposes a new arrangement, Anastasia cannot resist. They rekindle their searing sensual affair, and Anastasia learns more about the harrowing past of her damaged, driven and demanding Fifty Shades.

While Christian wrestles with his inner demons, Anastasia must confront the anger and envy of the women who came before her, and make the most important decision of her life.

very enjoyable!

i have read this book a couple times, so it was nice being able to listen to it for a change. Becca did a great job making each person sound different. i can't wait to listen to the next book. the only thing that might have made it a little better, and i didn't take away any stars for this, is if there was a guy reading the male parts.

Horrible narrator

She sounds like a teenager that whines all the time. There are so many better narrators who could've done these books the way the were written. Makes the listening experience almost painful. Oh please Christian!!

I'm a hopeless romantic

I can't get enough! Despite the fact that the book is soaring with explicit sex scenes you can't help but fall in love. Love conquers all.

This could be real.

Where does Fifty Shades Darker rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Ok

What about Becca Battoe’s performance did you like?

Yes

Any additional comments?

I don't agree with the weak character of the girl. But as a mom I need to be aware of what is there and things my daughter could read and how to prevent this kind of weakness.
