Resumen del Editor

If you love historical romantic suspense, don't miss this thrilling listening!

Lisa Jackson, New York Times best-selling author raves His Dark Kiss is "Riveting! A dark, steamy and twisted tale!".

Rumors of madness and murder lurk within the crumbling walls of isolated Manorbrier Castle. But Emma Parrish is not easily put off. She accepts a position no one else dares, as governess to the son of Lord Anthony Craven, the castle’s dark master. Her presence stirs up shadows and threat. She feels unseen eyes watching her. Eerie laughter haunts her, and the seductive pull of Anthony Craven lures her.

The mystery of Anthony Craven’s shadowy past lurk behind the locked doors of the estate’s forbidden Round Tower. Mysterious lights flash there in the night. The servants whisper warnings of death. Anthony himself warns Emma there is only danger to be found in his sensual embrace.

Powerfully drawn to the dangerously alluring Anthony, Emma finds herself unable to deny her deepest yearnings. But even as she succumbs to the master of Manorbrier, she is touched by the whisper of evil that rises from the secrets of his past.

Rewrite?

I absolutely adored the first novel in this series, many moons ago, and only recently discovered there are more so I decided to read this one. However, this is dang near a mirror image of the first novel with subtle differences.

limited character development

Drawn out too long in minute details that wouldn't carry the story along or bring the reader additional information. Character development was decent but not one intermingled well with the other - hard to recognize or even assume relationships we're being built.

Wow

An incredibly well written story with amazing characters and mystery. The narrator does a superb job with the different voices, with emotions, with heart. I loved it!

Very repetitive

I read the first book in this series and loved it, but this one fell short for me unfortunately. I’ll still go on to the next book in the series, but this one was just very repetitive, and I kept losing interest. 🤷🏼‍♀️😕

Angsty, haunted

Good addition to this series of early modern physicians and scientists. I loved the lead up and continued creepiness. References to Mrs. Radcliffe’s novels were apt and a fun addition to me. I never completed The Mysteries of Udolpho because it is just tooooo long but I thought this is a good length. It didn’tseem to ramble although there was a scene or two that dangled.
Good gothic romance hot sex but not an over abundance of it. Slow burn.
Narrator is a bit precious but not distracting.

ok

It was okay, particularly loved how well it was written unlike so many chick other chick lits that are tawdry with gratuitous scenes
I just felt the last part was a bit dragging. Like I want to yell at the hero for wasting so much time (SPOILER ALERT) and endless dialogues before he decided he should save someone's life.
I liked Emma but felt her hero was so-so

Finding love

This book was well written and narrated. The characters were irritating because they were very secretive. So the mysteries were hard to solve. This is a enjoyable read.

A lovely story.*

So nice to have all questions come together in the end. I look forward to the next book in the series*

Horribly long boring book! Skip this one please.

Now I truly enjoyed two other books from this author with 5 stars, but for This one fell short repetitive, nothing but fanciful longing from the heroine from page one. An utter twit. I was irritated and truly bored!
This book could have been done in half the time it dragged on and on.
Definitely hated it.
Will be returning this audio book.
I read the authors first and 3 rd gothic novel i believe and they were fantastic!
This one, I noted just not up to par of the other dark gothic series!
Really disappointed!

What a waste of time

This book was boring and repetitive with almost nothing but bland introspection by the heroine. The writing style was very elementary too with all telling and no showing. Boring and a waste of time.
