A Fantastic Story!!!!!!!

Oh goodness this story was addictive. Once started I couldn't stop listening to it. I had to find out were the story was going to take you and how it was going to end. Amber Bray was excellent in her narrative of the story. she was clear and well spoken. She added so much to the story whith her character transitions. I loved Damien and Juliana together with their sharp banter. Juliana at times was lost in her back and forth but she is quickly growing on me throughout the story. This story is so full of suspense and mystery. It has twists and turns that add to the story and keep you glued to the edge of your seat. I can't wait to find out what happens in the next book.

Dark and suspenseful

Lana Sky is fast moving to the top as one of my favorite dark listens. She can bring a story to life, at times make me cringe but I just love it! This story is not only thrilling, but its extremely sensual. Julianne has had a tough life, and now things are coming to a head. Wandering into an art show, she is taken with some horrific yet beautiful art. And when she meets Damien, the artist she finds she is unsure of whether to like him or run! This story had me from the first line. Julianne is broken, and as we get to know her, things only get worse. Damien is charismatic, alluring and dangerous and the chemistry between these two is palpable. The offer he makes is almost impossible to resist! But the secrets and the uncertainty are so think and the revelations unbelievable. Leaving us with a cliffhanger, make sure to have book 2 ready and queued to find out what happens next!

Amber Bray gives an incredible performance. It's passionate, and her inflections bring out the brokenness of Julianne. She pulls in the feeling of suspense with ease, giving Damien an accent with that dangerous feeling. It's a wonderful listen!

Page turner!

This book was one of those where you couldn't stop!!! It keeps you wanting more. When I started I couldnt stop. The narrator did an amazing job with the characters and the story line was so good. There is a cliffhanger so prepare yourself for it. So worth it though in my opinion. I cant wait for the next one!!!

Suspenseful, Intense & Stunning

Man, what a read!! This book is filled with exquisite tension, powerful characters, raw emotions, heat, intrigue, mystery, secrets, looming darkness, suspense and stunning twists. Juliana and Damien are both compelling characters that will engage your mind and tug at your heartstrings. Single narration only but I thought that worked well with this book and I found the voice pleasing. Be prepared to lose sleep or put off doing things that need to get done because once this book sinks it's claws into you, you will be it's prisoner until the last page is read. I need book two right away!

delisously dark and twisted

Lana Sky thrills in this dark and twisted read. I felt thrown into the deep end without regard and yet found myself eager to submerge myself again. I can't wait for more on Juliana Thorne and Damien Villa. These characters provide both strength and weakness at once and I am riveted in who will come out of this healed, because I believe that both are already beyond being unscathed. Well written in a way that very few can do well and Sky has seemingly mastered the darkness in her writing in a way that will make you seek more time and time again. The narration was superb with it's ease and flow - I couldn't image anyone doing better.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

A sinful read!

Is he her hero?
Or the villain?
This is no fairy tale...

A page-turning addicting and thrilling read! Prepare for a wild, wicked and sinful ride. And remember, enjoy every minute of it.

Just brilliantly written.

Lovely narration.

More please!

Lana Sky has a way of drawing you in to a story, and Amber Bray's narration just added to the whole experience. I love her accents and the variation between characters. A great listen!

A Touch of Dark

This was an intense story and the characters draw you in, there are a few questions raised but not answered in this story

The narration was good
