Marked by Cain

Ridgewood Series, Book 3

De: A.R. Rose

Narrado por: Amy Hall

An all-new small town, ex-boyfriend's brother, standalone romance from author A.R. Rose

Whoever said, ‘words can never hurt me’ was wrong.

Words cut deep.

Especially floating past the lips of the man who always felt like home.

Cain Michaels

My ex-boyfriend’s brother.

The only man who could make me feel deeper than I ever thought possible.

My worst nightmare and most vivid dream.

Six years ago, he shattered my soul and left a hole in my heart.

Now, I’d moved on.

I’d healed.

All I needed was my bar and my no-strings attached relationship with a man who made me forget how I ended up here in the first place.

When the ruggedly gorgeous motorcycle president roared back into my life, I did what any self-respecting woman would do…

I ignored him.

Except my body hadn’t gotten the message my brain was sending it.

With every day that passed, the charade of indifference was harder to control.

Cain was determined to not only make amends, but to tear down the walls I’d built and crash through them like the wrecking ball he was.

And I wasn’t so sure I’d be able to resist him much longer.

Marked By Cain is a STANDALONE second-chance romance, and is book three in the Ridgewood Series. For the full experience, it's recommended to read Between the Flames and Wicked Games We Play prior to Marked By Cain.

She made him work for it!! *hint of spoilers*

I loved Caine and Rosie's story! The simple fact that she made him work for it and didn't simply give in is what I loved the most. He had some groveling to do that's for sure. She made him work! If you love a good grovel, angst, and a little sharing (in the beginning), give this one a chance. I will definitely be coming back for more books by A.R. Rose and can't wait to read Sly's story!

Fantastic narration & the book was exquisite

I listened to this as a standalone. I haven’t read or listened to the first or second book of the series. I felt like I didn’t miss out or get any spoilers from the other books which I love. This story was well written and narrated. The story will take you into a place full of emotions and love. This is a love triangle. With some action, motorcycle gang, and so much more. I enjoy listening to this book, which I deeply recommend. The narrator did an amazing job, her male voice was so sexy and through the whole book I hadn’t even notice it was the same person all along.

Cain & Rose

This was the first book by this author I have read. It will definitely not be my last. This book had everything suspense, angst, heartbreak and a long awaited second chance. Both the story and characters were well developed. Overcoming their past to get to their HEA was a journey I enjoyed. I am looking forward to reading more by this author!

motorcycle club romance

I loved this story and wasn't able to stop listening. I finished the book in just a little over a day. Amy Hall did a great job of narrating this book. She had different voices for each of the characters. I was laughing at parts and brokenhearted at other parts. This is the only book in this series that I have read and I can't wait to read the others in the series. i will definitely listen to other books that Amy narrates. If you're looking for a great read, please listen to this book.

Enjoyed the characters

✔️ MC President
✔️ Brother's EX
✔️ Second Chance-ish

Marked by Cain is book #3 in the Ridgewood Series. It can be read as a standalone. I didn't read the first 2 books in the series. This is written in dual POV. However, I listened to the audio and there is only one narrator, Amy Hall did a great job but I personally prefer dual narration when there are women/men POV in the books. But that's a personal preference and doesn't effect my rating.

Cain is the president of the Sinners Motorcyle Club and, I typically am not an MC fan but I really loved Cain's character and his love for Rosie. Rosie is his brothers ex girlfriend, and her character is pretty badass. She's been hurt in the past, and doesn't want to let her falls break down. Plus dick confetti (IYKYK.) 🤣 There were some moments where I laughed, some where my heart hurt but along the way they got their HEA.

And I absolutely love Sly's character, and their situation and his push for them to get together. I'm hoping that he'll get his own HEA.
