Obsession

De: Karen Robards

Narrado por: Joyce Bean

Katharine Lawrence has no idea what hit her. The attack came out of nowhere. Only hours earlier she had been enjoying a girls-only weekend with an old college friend. Now she finds herself lying bound and gagged on her kitchen floor, staring with terrified eyes at her friend Lisa while two masked gunmen search her house for - what? She doesn't know. She knows only that, unless they can escape, whatever it is they are searching for could end up getting both her and Lisa killed.

But Katharine's nightmare is just beginning. When she awakens in the hospital, her nose crushed, her body battered, her brain tells her that things aren't right - and it's not the attack that's disorienting her. She doesn't recognize herself when she looks in the mirror: her slim body, her manicured hands, her blond bob. And the smiling, handsome doctor at her bedside - Dr. Dan Howard - is familiar, but in a totally unfamiliar way. Perhaps the trauma of the attempt on her life has given her some kind of weird amnesia. She's twenty-nine, the special assistant to the head of the CIA, and she's lucky to be alive. She also knows she can trust no one.

Acting on instinct, Katharine runs for her life, with Dan, her newfound protector, at her side. By turns grateful and unnerved by his presence, and unable to shake a feeling of profound dread, she allows him to spirit her to a secluded safe house. Instead of finding a haven, they stumble into a tangled web of government conspiracy, and Katharine is left confused, frightened, and desperate to uncover the truth. As the pair is drawn further into this shadowy world where almost nothing is as it seems, as fear gives way to a firestorm of attraction, the cat-and-mouse game grows more deadly, and soon both their lives are at stake.

Engaging tbhriller

Multiple twists and turns keep the reader guessing and wanting more so you don't want it to end

Ok story and ok performance.

The story was ok, but the build up for the romance was lacking. Also, I have a tough time finding the hero sexy whe his voice is so ugly sounding. I'd rather a woman performer just use her natural voice even if it's not manly than sound like this did. I enjoyed the printed book more than the audio because of that.

A little different

The narration was good. The story interesting, though implausible. This is a good author for those who like their suspense with just a smidge of romance.

Not my favorite

Story line was ok - way over the top in some aspects of “science.” Disliked the male voice. None of the characters were very endearing or likable. There are better Karen Robards options out there.

Kept me listening

Loved it. Could not put it down Loved two main character's interaction. Listened 3 times.

Fast paced Thriller!!! Karen doesn't disappoint!!!

This story starts off galloping, and continues at a full tilt RUN! Excellent characters, heart-pounding plot, and an exceptional narrator make this a MUST listen audiobook!!

Spooked Rabbit

Great classic KR novel. Good fast dialogue with wit, so don’t miss it when doing chores. Imaginative plot with good narration, loved Dr. Dan. This is the second time l have purchased from MP3 to download, the best as you can listen at 1.2 speed.
Were my comments of help?

Bann hideously

So many unneeded adjectives. Especially the use of the word hideously. It distracted from the story.
