Publisher's summary

Infamous for satisfying his limitless wants and desires, Christopher is a free man again. And this time he’s on a mission to engage, deceive, and seduce the one woman as ruthless as he is when it comes to dangerous games of passion.… Far from innocent in the ways of men, Maria is one step ahead of Christopher’s every move. It doesn’t mean she isn’t enjoying every delicious look, every unbridled kiss, every moment of abandon. Neither of them could have imagined the moment when they would meet their match - or that they would surrender to each other again and again.…

4 stars - 3 words: HOT GEORGIAN ROMANCE

This book follows Ask For It and is a luscious romantic tale full of tension, intrigue, desire, steamy passion and of course great likeable characters (including a drop dead gorgeous Pirate/Rake). This was one of those books that had my husband complaining because I was walking around with earphones in listening to it all day, half the night and ordering in Pizza.

I love love love Sylvia Day's books but a word of warning: If you don't like sexy listens or lewd language then look elsewhere.

Worth a credit? Yes it would be but for $7.34 I just bought it and saved my credit for a pricier listen.

just okay

if you like lots of sex then you'll love this book. the two main characters were unable to not couple every time they were together and the author is quite descriptive in the goings on concerning the act. the book would have been better i think with a different narrator, such a pity she was selected to do the entire series. had i realized that i would never have purchased the series but i did am so i am compelled to stick it out and get through it. mostly i like the stories but dread the listening of it. just another good series ruined by a bad narrator. who chooses the narrators anyway? is it the author, or the publisher, or audible? i have no idea but who ever it is i wonder do they listen to them prior to hiring them, i sincerely have my doubts!

Lovely Historical-Type Romance

Would you listen to Passion for the Game again? Why?

No, but it was a good listen. I'm just not into those type of romance novels like I used to be, but sometimes I find one that is outstanding that makes me want to read it over and over, but this isn't one. Like I said, it's a good listen. It's worth a listen.

Any additional comments?

I think I would wait until it's on sale (which I did) and save my credit. Not because it's bad, it's good, but I enjoy a different genre of book more. I do like this type of book but it really has to be exceptional for me to say it's worth a credit.

More than just fantastic sex!

Listening to the twist and turns of their love affair made me wish that the book was longer ... Just so you enjoy the two of their banter and intense love. Christopher had truly met his match in Maria. I love how powerful and confident Maria is. She is such a likable character you really want her to gain control of her life. She is fearless and willing to do whatever it takes to free her sister. From the last book (Ask For It), you know that Christopher is a fierce pirate who has nothing to loose, since his brother was killed. He however takes care of his people building great loyalty. The two provide such intensity, I am amazed that the pages do not catch on fire. I also enjoyed the innocent love story of Colin and Amelia, which contrast and accents Maria and Christopher's relationship. But Simon Quinn has to be one of my favorite characters. Nothing can hold that Irishman down. I look forward to the next book in the series.

Lots of Passion

Any additional comments?

This was an excellent read. The only thing i did not enjoy was the ascent's of the male characters. The story keeps your interest till the very end. :)

I want more...

I wish all 4 books was about Christoper and Maria. This is my favorite out of all 4 books. I love how Christopher fall in love with Maria even after the knowing her past. Maria passion to find her sister is also heartbreaking but a least all end well.

The narration is great. Left me wanting more.

It was ok

Would you try another book from Sylvia Day and/or Justine Eyre?

yes

Do you think Passion for the Game needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

no

Any additional comments?

The story line is different from most but I found I could fall asleep to the book and was able to do other things while listening. It was a good book. Interesting story. Don't know if it was worth the price but worth a credit. I guess I had read too great of a book before this one, so my words are a bit droopy. The story just was just slow in content (bed play was nice) and needed more action instead of it hovering over weather they wanted to trust each other. This book had the potential to be great.

Wonderful story, from the first line.

If you could sum up Passion for the Game in three words, what would they be?

What a great love story

What about Justine Eyre’s performance did you like?

Justine is a wonderful speaker, she can change her voice so you can imagine all the characters.

Any additional comments?

I loved the whole series, and couldn't stop listening till they were all read.
