Awesome!

Katie Reus books are always enjoyable. This is the first book in the Sin City series, about the Serafina Hotel and it's employees. I like it. Very basic damsel in distress story, but the alpha maleness is what makes this story stand out. So smexy!

Great for a quick listen/read!

Narration was great... no complaints here... Great credit, or sale.

Romantic Suspense/Hot and Steamy!

Would you consider the audio edition of First Surrender to be better than the print version?

I enjoyed both versions, the print and the audio, but normally I prefer print versions over audio just because I read faster and I want to know what is going to happen as soon as possible. With this book, though, I would have to say that I enjoyed the audio more, just because I really liked Ryan Hudson's performance.

What was one of the most memorable moments of First Surrender?

One of the most memorable moments in First Surrender for me was when Sierra got attacked in the parking garage in the beginning of the book. Up to that point, they had just been friends, but that event is what has Hayden admitting his feelings to Sierra and in my opinion sets the tone for the rest of the book.

What about Ryan Hudson’s performance did you like?

I absolutely love Ryan Hudson's voice. It is smooth and sexy and very enjoyable to listen to. I liked the way he paused in certain areas and the fact that he didn't seem to stumble over any of the words. I really enjoyed his voice and performance and hope to listen to more of his work in the future.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Hot and steamy with a side of suspense!

Any additional comments?

First Surrender is the first book in the Serafina: Sin City Series. It's a great beginning to an awesome series and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

First Surrender

Another great book from Ms. Reus. Great story, characters and narrator, Ryan Hudson. Highly Recommended!

Wonderful read but too short!

I loved everything about this book. The characters are great. What I wish was that we had gone back a little and listened to some scenes with them when they were friends. Also why he was discharged from the military. I just needed a little more here. Otherwise great as always from this author.

Smexy Suspense in Sin City

Sierra and Hayden are buddies. (Both have more than “buddy” feelings for each other but are afraid to let on and possibly lose their friendship.) They have a long standing Thursday night date doing “buddy” things. Sierra goes to Hayden’s office to meet him and is told by a co-worker that he is gone on date. Sierra is hurt by this and leaves. She is attacked in the parking garage at work. Hayden then gets his chance to get Sierra to himself and "make his move". Being in proximity they share their feelings with each other. Ryan Hudson did a good job with the narration of this book. He did especially well with the nuances of Hayden's character. The chapters and story flowed well.

A great beginning for this series

This novella introduces us to a new series by Ms Reus that promises to be another winner.
The story belongs to Chef Sierra and Hayden, a Security Specialist in one of the most exclusive hotels in Vegas.
They have become friends and secretly have had feeling for each other, but it isn’t until Sierra is assaulted , that these feelings are revealed.
Suffice is to say, the author compacts in the novella a sexy, full of suspense, action and romance. One that will keep your interest throughout the story.
Looking forward to more stories in this series.
I was gifted the audible. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

great short read

this book was so great! I love Hayden and his overprotective tendencies over Sierra. His love and fierceness to protect her was so sweet and hot! this is a great short read for the holidays 10/10 recommend

Quick but good

It was a short story but was enjoyable. The characters are well developed and fun. It makes you want to listen to more of Katie Reus books. I have most of them and wait for more.

Short but entertaining.

This was a very short but pretty cute, sweet story concerning a ex navy seal and the young innocent girl he falls in love with. They both work for a casino and dance around what is between them for a time, that is, until her life is in danger from another employee that is obsessed with her and her virginity. He saves her life and things fall into place for the couple. Ryan Hudson gives an outstanding performance and delivers the right amount of emotion while he reads. All in all, it's a nice start for the series. Short and right to the point.
