Haunting Adeline

By: H. D. Carlton

Narrated by: Teddy Hamilton, Michelle Sparks

Publisher's summary

The Manipulator

I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me.

I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh.

But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave.

He's always there, watching and waiting.

And I can never look away.

Not when I want him to come closer.

The Shadow

I didn't mean to fall in love.

But now that I have, I can't stay away.

I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves.

The way she undresses...

I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine.

And once she is, I'll never let her go.

Not even when she begs me to.

While not required, it is highly suggested to listen to the novella Satan's Affair first.

Author's Note: This book ends on a cliff-hanger. For CWs, please check the author's website.

Damn Good!!

I haven't had the pleaser of actual true and real Dark gritty raw romance and then some in a very long time. > could not our this listen down. I have to Thank this amazing author for being true to herself as a writer. Loved this. I cannot wait to listen to more from this amazing and special author. I absolutly love twisted dark wild and CrAzY cross the line type romance with some thriller/suspense thrown in and some action to. Not to mention she made this into two longer books instead of breaking her books up into 3 or 4 shorter books you have to wait on. No, she did us right. Other authors can learm a thing or two from this talented woman.

Dark romance with content warnings

So this was just fine. I was expecting so much more with how much I’ve heard about this duet, but I just felt underwhelmed by it all. While it handles some darker themes I guess I was just expecting it to be darker as far as the romance. To me, the darker elements are what the hero was handling on the side, taking down a child trafficking type ring.

The romance was just kind of lacking. The hero is walking by a bookstore one day and sees a poster in the window of the heroine’s face, she’s an author and there there that day for a book event. He is instantly drawn to her just from the photo and wants her for his. He starts stalking her. She’s living in her late grandmother’s house and starts going through her great grandmother’s diary, which leads to a murder mystery from the 1940s where her great grandmother had her own complex relationship with a stalker. Honestly those excerpts were the most interesting part of the book for me. 😅 I never felt the romance between the hero and the heroine, he just wanted her and she enjoyed and got off on the fear. And he’s sort of like a vigilante doing good by taking down terrible people. I don’t know, it was fine. It ends on a bit of a cliffhanger but I’m just not interested enough to continue.

Unsure

I was unsure of how this book was going to be. I was unable to read the book as I couldn’t stay focus on the book. I enjoyed the book over all. The multiple story lines are great. I am glad I actually gave this book a chance. Now I understand why this book isn’t for everyone.

Excellent! It’s dark, it’s heavy, it’s sad and BEAUTIFUL!

If you’re up for being on edge and confronting your own potentially dark thoughts, this book is for you! If you want have an internal dialog about love and hate and the fine balance between the two, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU! AND.......if you are ready to CRASH into an honest depiction of human trafficking by the satanic government and other powerful people, this book is FOR YOU.

Captivated

Both narrators did an amazing job. The male voice is perfect as Zade in my opinion. This book is very, very spicy, however it has many triggers and kinks that may be uncomfortable for many. The author’s details are captivating as you fall in love with Zade and Ade’s relationship. I highly recommend this book if you are ready to be on edge in a good and bad way.

Amazing Narration!

I wrote my full review on Goodreads so I will mainly talk about the narration which was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Teddy and Michelle did such a great job and the best part was it was a duet! These 2 brought these characters to life! I did enjoy the story for the most part it's definitely one of those books you have to 1) be in the mood for dark and 2) like violent spice (CNC,NON/DUB CON, PRIMAL PLAY) I am definitely ok with dark but the violent spice isn't really my thing if it's the only spice which it was. when she's talking about him bitting her lady bits I was just cringing 😬 but this is all just personal preferences. I will definitely listen to book 2 when it comes out on audiobook.
