Brutal

Pleasure and Prey

De: AJ Merlin

Narrado por: Victoria Connolly

Nothing bad happens at summer camp.

That’s what my fellow camp counselors have convinced me of when the nights around the lake get a little eerie.

But when the kids all go home and the counselors throw a party on our last night at Camp Clearwater, things change. None of us could have suspected that there was a stranger watching us, or that our machete-wielding visitor doesn’t seem to like that we’re here. But when I'm attacked in the woods, he unexpectedly comes to my rescue in the most ruthless way.

Wren is terrifying, unpredictable, and possessive in a way that terrifies me. I should go to the police and stay away from him at all costs. Instead, I find myself letting him in every time he comes to play.

Can a brutal butcher ever really fall for me, or am I going to become his next victim?

Brutal is a contemporary dark romance stand-alone set in the Pleasure & Prey universe. This is an MF romance.

3 star listen

Another good listen.
I do enjoy this group of serial killers 🤣
3 star listen
This time I did feel like the story was half done at the end?
I may have missed it but I don’t know what exactly is wrong with her leg/knee and her mental health and if there’s a reason for that?
Also little to know background on our mmc
But still ok. I’ll continue the series.

Brutal

Brutal is the second book in the Pleasure and Play series. This book is about Hazel and Wren. We have seen a cameo of Wren in book one, and I loved his book just as much as the first one.

Hazel works at Camp Clearwater and is in her final days there since all the campers have gone home. There is a serial killer on the loose, but she still finds solace in looking at the stars. When something happens Wren is there to protect her and kill her. However, he finds her interesting and he starts to stalk her.

Hazel isn't afraid of Wren like she should be. What happens when she finds out who is behind the mask, and meets his other side outside of camp?

I enjoyed this crazy ride and can't wait to see what crazy hero we get to meet next!

Loved

Absolutely love this series and the crazy men are all so hot… I shouldn’t love them but I absolutely do and am not sorry one bit lol definitely recommend this!

Wow

A very interesting storyline. A serial killer/stalker watching his prey. Keeping Hazel safe. Anyone comes touches her, they're gone. A detective obsessed with finding evidence that Wren is the serial killer.
Hazel has insecurities and struggles with depression.. Questions herself why did she want to be with Wren? Can she trust him?
Sexy, mystery, with twists and turns.
Victoria Connelly narration is very good. I enjoyed listening to this story.

The female character always ruins it!

I love the stories that this author tells. however, The female character is always so unattractive and weak. as a reader, I like to imagine myself as the character and as a woman. the last thing I want to do is imagine myself as a weak, pathetic unattractive female. it just ruins the story for me.
