Publisher's summary

Eleven. For three long years that’s what she was called by The Collector, the sexual sadist who enslaved her.

Mia Deleon fought the odds and escaped only to discover that no one would believe her about the ordeal she’d endured. Not the police. Not her family or friends. Even the investigators she hired couldn’t find a trace of the sexual predator. So with help she disappeared, always looking over her shoulder, living in the shadows. Knowing she’d never be safe while he was still free.

Security expert Jude Bishop had helped her vanish. Now he’s been hired to bring Mia back. A criminal profiler may have discovered a tenuous link to her case. But Jude is nearly too late because The Collector has already found Mia, too. And their race to trail the sexual sadist turned killer brings Mia ever closer to the man obsessed with her.

Because she became his prized possession the moment she’d evaded him. And he’ll stop at nothing to see his collection finally complete…

Scary concept...

Unfortunately this book loosely parallels our society today. Although I have not heard of anyone kidnapping 13 women. This story reminds me of Cleveland's Ariel Castro who kidnapped and tortured 3 young women for 11 years.
Brant's antagonist, for reasons of his own warped mind wants 13 perfect women. They are all for him and he abuses them relentlessly. Mia is #11. After three years being held captive, she escaped.
Mia hires a protection agency who is able to supply her with false identification. Of course the wacko is still in pursuit. The man who owns the agency had been severely abused as a child. There's a connection. Some romance, thankfully it's kept to a minimum!
Certainly held my attention.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Brilliant!!

My first book by this author and I am floored!!! The mystery and suspense feel is insanely high!! I went back and forth on whether I should get this audiobook or not. I’m so happy I bit the bullet. It was everything I want in a book. Plus, the romance was just a bit. It was definitely more suspense than romance and I appreciate that so much!!

The narrator Kate Udall was fantastic!! Her voices were filled with emotion. The suspense was thick! Great job!!

Pretty good book

I love Kylie Brant books. I thought this one was pretty good but not my favorite. It could be me and I'm just not feeling it right now. She writes such good stories I'm not sure why I wasn't as into this one but it was still good. Give it a try.

Couldn't Put Down

This book will keep your attention and great till the end. A real page turner that I couldn't put down.

Thought this would be more of a thriller

I love thrillers but this was pretty far off of the mark. Why all the romance?

Narration not great

While the story was interesting and suspenseful, the reading by the narrator was less than stellar. The woman placed completely random pauses in the middle of phrases and sentences like she’d reached the end of a thought. And the tone of her speech was overly dramatic even when nothing exciting was happening. Wow. Who would have thought the description of a hotel room’s decor was so nail-biting and spine-tingling! *eyeroll*

Anyway, if you can tolerate less than fluent reading and voice acting you’ll probably enjoy the book.

boring..

I usually really enjoy this type of story but this one just really missed the mark for me.
Not sure why but I found this book really boring and started drifting off into my own thoughts while listening and having to go back to the beginning of the chapter to see what I missed. This book just couldn't hold my attention.

ok story

this was not one of her best, but ok. the narrator was not good.

Much better than the first listen from this author

My first listen was from the plus catalog and it was very obvious that it was a romance writer trying to switch genres. This book had minor romance and gratuitous sex and a stronger over all story line. I enjoyed it.

This is so sadly bad.

Story could be interesting but the writing! Girl not believed after horrible abuse is an interesting theme. Or could be. Just not here. She’s been sexually abused for years. On the run, in hiding for years. Still needs to be saved by and believed by a man to heal in soul and body. All of it just soooo badly written.
