Resumen del Editor

A lethal mercenary bent on vengeance. The innocent woman standing in his way.

Dr. Sara Cobakis's quiet suburban life is turned upside down when a darkly handsome Russian assassin breaks into her home and tortures her for information. But the nightmare doesn't end there.

Because Peter Sokolov returns, and this time, he's determined to keep the pretty young doctor for himself.

No matter what it takes.

Don't miss this twisted, intensely addictive dark romance that listeners can't stop obsessing over.

Loved it ❤️💝❤️💝

Love the story and all the twists and turns. It is about Stockholm syndrome but much more. Love Sebastian York and Tracy Matks did fantastic. Not sure if I’ve heard here before but she did an excellent job as the female. Good read. So thrilled I was able to buy all of it with 1 credit, but if not, I would’ve bought them separately.

Female Narrator is a too sing songy

Love Sabastian’s voice but her voice is too sing songy and needs to slow down a little. Its like listening to a drive by.

I Loved it

definitely had some WTF moments but it's a great series. Just give it a shot.

Long at times but good!

Great story line. 3rd in the story line. Female narrator was so so so hard to listen too. She spoke in a pattern that drove me crazy. Super fast start out of each sentence then the last two words were slow and in a beat. Sebastian York, as always, was AMAZING!!

slow the audio down to 0.8

Not gonna lie I was upset when I first started listening. Then I read the reviews and was pissed. But I was at work and needed something to listen to. So I slowed down the audio, and what do you know 🤔. I loved Peter from both narrator's. But Sarah just got on my last nerve as a character 😒. I don't condone domestic violence but I was waiting on him to hurt her . Girl had my eye twitching. Loved the series tho, Peter's my boyfriend in my head, York tried. He missed but he tried🫶🏿.

Captive romance mania!

The heroine: Dr. Sara Cobakis - she is sleep deprived, something happened to her husband George in some sort of auto accident. Sara feels a great deal of guilt over the accident. The whole thing about her husband is confusing at first. It is like he is in hiding or something.

The Hero(es): Peter Sokolov - he and his team are assassins that get over a million dollars a job. They are wanted by international authorities and between jobs they have been working through a list of people they are getting revenge on.

The Story: The book starts with the Hero suffering the loss of his wife and young son. At that time he worked for a special unit of the Spetsnaz, the Russian Special forces. In his job he did things like torture terrorists and his time with his wife and son kept some humanity in him. However, when they were taken from him, that died also and he lived for revenge

The book is in Dual POV and there were two narrators, neither of which I completely liked off the bat. I love a deep voice in a man and this guy had a very deep one, Though he sounded like he was a smoker, He had the kind of gravelly voice that isn’t sexy gravelly, but well past middle aged, longtime smoker gravelly. Though he did have a pretty good Russian accent There was nothing specific I didn’t like about the female narrator, but I think it was the way she spoke really fast and slowed down at the end of each sentence. It just didn’t sound natural.

Though it didn’t take too long to get used to the narration and the storylines were good. Anna Zaires does captive romance well and this one was all that and a bag of chips. It also included the characters from the Twist Me and the Capture Me trilogies. There is dubious consent, though I think that happens in many of the captive romance genre. There always seems to be the situation where the heroine wants to be intimate with the anti-hero, but she doesn’t want to want it. So despite her protestations, the intimacy happens and is justified because she technically wanted it even though she said she didn’t.

I must say though, I liked the dynamic between Peter and Sara. He knew early on that he loved her and though sometimes he wanted to hurt her, more often than not he treated her like a pampered princess. He did things like cook for her, brushed her hair, bathed her and more. Sara fought against his overwhelming possessiveness, but later admits she likes pain and being forced sometimes because of the guilt she feels for the feelings she has for Peter, who was a criminal.

I liked the love story and how it went. I like dark romance and captive romance. I like to read for enjoyment and don’t really like it when reviewers expect authors to set a good example by writing everything in a politically correct manner. We don’t expect that of authors of thrillers, murder mysteries, crime novels or other book types so why should we expect it of romance authors.

Awesome

This book was awesome and add a little bit of everything and Hot and heavy then has you on the edge of your seat. One of those you just can’t put down.

The female narrator 😱

The book is okay, the male narrator was excellent but the female narrator was HORRIBLE!!!!! OMG, make her stop!!!!!

I’m going to finish the series BUT…

I am not even finished with the first book and it’s making my really sad to post this review so soon…. And keep in mind I find Sebastian York’s voice, as a narrator of epic romance novels, in general, incredible.

BUT…. What kind of producer decided “Hey! Let’s simultaneously make the poor decision to try to embrace the Eastern European MC’s accent from the book, and embarrass the voice actor by supporting him speaking in the WORST rendition of said accent of all time… AND also accept him going in and out of said shit accent at random intervals.”👀🙄

In all honesty, this has been quite a dramatic reenactment of my opinion… bc I am easily amused and found it funny. Ultimately, I’m being honest with the accent thing. It’s bugging me.

My favorite dark romance so far!

This series was very well written. Usually after I read a dark romance, I come out thinking of all the things it lacked and the lack of interaction overall between the main characters. Usually the author will write what the character is thinking instead of writing more interaction between the main characters so it leaves a void of many things that should be said between them to give the main characters more depth and relationship build-up.
That is not the case here. I did not feel that the characters relationship was not believable. So far, this is my favorite dark romance series and I have read many. The story is full of details and great character development. I love how it ties in with the characters from Twist Me. Definitely will re-read this story and I highly recommend it.
