Resumen del Editor

Sarah Valentine is so over seeing drama about her city's superheroes on every newspaper and TV broadcast. Besides, she has her own problems to worry about: her career isn't going anywhere, she doesn't have a boyfriend (or any prospects), and most of her weekends are spent escaping into video games that are way more thrilling than anything that will ever happen to her.

And worst of all, her thirtieth birthday is right around the corner.

But everything changes the day she runs into Nate - a chance encounter with a handsome stranger that turns her quiet life upside down and throws her into the middle of a world of heroes, villains, and adventure.

In We Could Be Villains, Sarah learns that there's a very hazy line between the good guys and the bad guys. With the help of an unexpected journey, a motley team of professionals, and some eye-opening backstory about the heroes she's grown up watching, Sarah just might find the job, romance, and excitement she's been waiting for.

Much better than I expected

A very enjoyable book to listen to. I cannot wait to start book 2. I hope it’s just as good of not better.

Not fully baked

Felt like the plot moved along without any real conflict, jeopardy or risks to our characters. A super-secret "evil" organization full of good guys (who only rob from rich people and power companies apparently, but destroy a YMCA without sending an anonymous donation?). A utopian island where everything is free and everyone works for no pay for the greater good and the core leadership takes on a new member with only the lightest of vetting. I won't be continuing this series.

Part 2 came out in 2015

Incase anyone was interested in part 2 (like I was) it came out in 2015 and is available for purchase, just not in audiobook form.

Where is book 2?

This was quite an interesting adventure. I was not sure at first what to expect, however pleasantly surprised with the outcome. I’m just wondering where book 2 is? I’m totally ready for the next one! Bring it on!

awesome story and great narration

great character development and fun story. the characters come alive and feel like friends indeed

terrible accents

Would you try another book from Missy Meyer and/or Kat Heiser?

would try another book by Missy Meyer but would avoid Kat Heiser narration at all costs

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

the start was very slow, would have made the start more dynamic

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Kat Heiser?

anyone who doesn't think an English accent is the same as either Australian or South African

What would have made this romance irresistible?

wasn't reading for the romance so nothing

Any additional comments?

If you're going to do an accent for a character then maybe you should check you can do that accent first rather than insult people with your terrible interpretation. Brits don't sound like a South African or an Australian, if you can't do the accent then just use your normal voice don't attempt it and get it so badly wrong it distracts from the story.

Screw heroes

It was a great alternative spin on the traditional super hero story, great book overall highly recommend

Would love to see more from Missy Meyer

A great beginning to a series that I look forward to collecting 😊😊😊😊😊 I strongly recommend

dull and slow

the book was dull and slow I've read quite a bit of superhero / super villain literature, and this one was the worst it doesn't do enough to make you feel as if this is a living breathing world.
