Wicked as Lies

Wicked & Devoted, Book 3

De: Shayla Black

Narrado por: Troy Duran

He wants her...and he doesn't care that she's the enemy.

Chase "Zyron" Garrett left a bloody stint with Uncle Sam for the personal security business. His employment agreement forbids hookups with coworkers, which isn't a problem - until Tessa Lawrence, the office secretary and single mom, is harassed by her vengeful ex-boyfriend. Zy is assigned to protect her, but the moment he meets the gorgeous blonde, those contractual restrictions tighten around him like a noose.

Tessa Lawrence is alone in the world...except for her newborn baby, and she's determined to survive without a man. Then Zy walks through her door. Fiercely protective yet tender, he's everything she wants in a man, lover, and father for her daughter. But he's totally off limits. If she falls, she'll be fired.

When a teammate is captured and the enemy predicts their every move, it's clear they've got a mole. The bosses task Zy with discovering their traitor, and all clues point to the woman he's fast falling for. With danger lurking, he finds himself caught in a tangle of unquenched need and searing betrayal. Will their love be the greatest casualty of all?

Contains mature themes.

Amazing story

Wow what an amazing book by Shayla Black and the emotional journey she takes us on with Zyron and Tessa! Troy Duran was fantastic narrating this book and bringing the characters and story to life. He was great performing both male and female voices and the story flowed smoothly without missing a beat. Looking forward to listening to the next book.

cliff hanger ahead!!!

I guess I didnt pay attention when I purchased this one, total cliff hanger! That is why this one gets 3 stars from me. Make sure you buy the next story too so you don't have to wait for the conclusion!!
The characters are compelling, though I was getting tired of the non-progress between them; now I see why that was the case. Some of the other characters' stories are briefly touched on, but in a way that made the details given unnecessary.
Troy did a great job bringing the story to life. He is one of those voices I could listen to forever and will solidify my choice to purchase a book.

scam allert

this is actually just the first half of the story. The book opens with a hook, and the rest of the book is a flashback that you expect to lead up to the scene the book opened with. IT DOESN'T. You have to PURCHASE the next book to get to the scene in chapter one. it's chicken $#[+. Now I don't trust that any of the books will have an ending, or will leave me hanging. Bad ethics. they need to let you k ow that this is a Novela or that the book has multiple parts, otherwise I would have skipped reading this one. The good thing is that it is a romance novel... spoiler! The guy gets his girl and his girl is very satisfied... I know this, It's how they all end. So I won't be purchasing the next book.

Sorry

I dnf’d this book. The narration was good and I love Shayla Black, but this book got boring pretty quick. No steamy scenes and the dull storyline made me hang it up. Then we find out the story is even continued in another book. My time is more valuable than that.

Really

this story did not need two books, I skipped half the book hoping to wrap it up only to left hanging. very disappointing

HUGE DISSAPOINTMENT!

I have listened to All the books from this author. Especially in this series. I can't believe a whole book went by and there was not ONE steamy scene. I felt like I was reading a Christian romance for YA. One of the reasons I started reading shayla black was because she knew how to wrote scenes so they didn't get stale n presented them in innovative ways. I seriously feel this book was a total sell out !

Frustrating cliffhanger

Cliffhanger. Didn’t like how MMC intentionally hurt FMC by calling ex for a hook up. Let FMC think he had been hooking up with OW for months. Yuck
