The Unrequited

De: Saffron A. Kent

Narrado por: Anna Riordan, Joe Arden

Layla Robinson is not crazy. She is suffering from unrequited love. But it's time to move on. No more stalking, no more obsessive calling.

What she needs is a distraction. The blue-eyed guy she keeps seeing around campus could be a great one - only he is the new poetry professor - the married poetry professor.

Thomas Abrams is a stereotypical artist - rude, arrogant, and broody - but his glares and taunts don't scare Layla. She might be bad at poetry, but she is good at reading between the lines. Beneath his prickly façade, Thomas is lonely, and Layla wants to know why. Obsessively.

Sometimes you do get what you want. Sometimes you end up in the storage room of a bar with your professor and you kiss him. Sometimes he kisses you back like the world is ending and he will never get to kiss you again. He kisses you until you forget the years of unrequited love; you forget all the rules, and you dare to reach for something that is not yours.

Love the heroine's heart all her imperfections

One of my favorite books. I first read it on my kindle and now, months later listened to the audio book. It almost felt like I was reading this book for the very first time. 💘

Poetic and mesmerizing

The Unrequited was my first foray into the forbidden work of Kent and most definitely won't be my last. I've longed for a book like this that is challenging and lascivious. Thomas and Layla ignited a fire in my soul that yearned for their desire and lust. A love that will either break you or mend the pieces of your heart back together. For those of you who cannot stomach a book so daring, steer clear.

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Joe Arden and Anna Riordan. I wish for more of Thomas' POV as Joe's voice completely won me over. His portrayal of Thomas' character kept me in a day long fantasy that I could not get enough of. This was my first time listening to the work of Anna. Her sensual voice made it all the more fitting for Layla's character. I highly suggest you download.

loved it!

This was an amazing story and wonderfully performed. I couldn't stop listening and finished it in one day!

Forbidden

Hot student/teacher romance that is forbidden in more ways than one. The heroine has issues she is aware of and she is actively trying to work on. I liked her despite her slightly obsessive tendencies. I felt for the hero for reasons I can't disclose without spoiling! He is an a**hole but for some reason I fell for him anyway. The story is steamy and angsty.

Narration was perfect! Love Anna's voice.

Erotic, Intelligent, Heart-wrenching Consuming 🔥

This book is one of the best written love stories on Amazon right now, hands down. It’s definitely a re-readable book, demanding that you lose yourself in the compulsive relationship between these two tortured souls, desperately seeking comfort and solace with one another. I, however, appear to be in the minority in thinking the narration could have been so much better than it was performed by both the female and male readers. This book is good enough to own both the kindle and the audible versions, no doubt. But I felt like both narrators rushed their readings, and failed to lend the deeper notes and tones of conflict and abject lust the characters were written with. Saffron Kent is an amazing talent at capturing both the height and depth of ecstatic love. I hope she chooses different narrators for her next conversion to audiobook.
