A Love So Dangerous

Publisher's Summary

Warning: This is one dark, dangerous, dirty-talking, adrenaline-fueled thrill ride. Are you ready?

I've got a big c*ck, a bigger bank account, and zero interest in happily ever after. I just want to feel alive, to look into a woman's eyes and see something that's going to keep my mind off all the shit I refuse to think about for an hour or two.

And then I meet her, a good girl with a body made for sin and ugly problems only a bad man can fix.

A bad man like me....

Gabe Alexander is the devil. Or an angel.

He's a criminal hiding behind a millionaire dollar pedigree, but he also saved my life and my family. He's the worst kind of bad news, but every time he touches me, and whispers filthy, beautiful things in my ear, all I want is more.

More of his kiss, his touch, and the dangerous, seductive things he makes me feel.

I don't want to go bad, but the man makes it feel so damned good....

Warning part the second: A Love So Dangerous is the first in a three-part series. It is a full-length novel that ends in a cliffhanger. It was formerly published as One Wild Night and This Wicked Rush by Jessie Evans.

Like A Thief In The Night

Wow! What a thrilling romance story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Gabe and Caitlin together are so contradictory yet absolutely combustible. Circumstances brought them together but their chemistry is what makes them explode.

It was annoying that this story was broken into a 3 book series when it could just as easily been told in 1 book, 2 at the most.

The narrators were so compelling that I just couldn't stop listening. Erin Mallon is one of my favorite narrators and Lance Greefield blended will with her.

The series is worth the credit maybe 2 credits, but 3 credits is a bit much. But it was worth the reduced price I paid. Can't wait to finish the series.

GOOD LISTEN

I liked this book pretty much. The story keeps you INTERESTED. The narration is GOOD! I'm pretty disappointed that the book was so short and ended on a major cliffhanger! these audible books are not cheap and paying $10 or a credit for 6 hours is a little unreasonable. I purchased because of the good reviews without paying enough attention to the length of the book. now that I'm sucked in, I guess I'll be paying $10 for a 4 hour Book 2. Just keep this in mind before purchasing BOOK 1.😞 you'll be paying over $35 or 3 credits for about 15 hours of listening time.

Desperate Times Calls For Desperate Measures!

I'm quickly becoming a fan of Lili Valiente! I fell in the love the Magnificent Bastard series, and couldn't wait to listen to her newest series To The Bone. While the first book in the series had a slow start, it quickly picked up, and delivered a slightly dark suspenseful plot with lots of steamy chemistry. The story ends on a heart-stopping cliffhanger.... so I really hope we don't have to wait long for book two! ;-)

Some spoilers:
Young Caitlin Cooney has sacrificed going to college to raise her younger brothers and niece. Her mother has run off, her sister has left the county, and her father is unfit to raise the children. She's up to her eyeballs in debt, and is struggling to make ends meet. Just when things couldn't get any worse, she's hit with property taxes. If the taxes aren't paid and paid soon, they could lose their home. Needing a break from daily grind, Caitlin and her good friend Sherry go to a club to dance the night away, and run into Gabe, a rich guy who she knew from high school.

Gabe's looking for a distraction, a distraction that will take his mind off his problems, and he prefers the "one night stand" kind of distractions. After dancing with Caitlin, he's thinking she would be the prefect distraction, but she isn't biting. Before he leaves the club, he talks with Sherry who secretly tells him all about Caitlin's money woes. Caitlin needs money, and he knows the perfect scumbag who has money, money the scumbag would use to get out of trouble. Our modern day Robinhood, Gabe, devises the perfect plan to help Caitlin "acquire" the money. She's reluctant at first, but the more success they have implementing his plans, the more she is on board.

Gabe and Caitlin aren't just reallocating funds, they have real chemistry. Steamy! hot! Off the charts chemistry! But Gabe has a secrete, and can only give Caitlin the summer, but it's a summer they both agree to completely enjoy with nights filled hot, passionate, dirty, mind blowing sex! The more time they spend together, the more attached they become.

Lance Greenfield and Erin Mallon brought their A GAME and delivered a STELLAR performance! They both did an excellent job with the characters, dialogue, emotions, and really made this an awesome audio experience. Kudos!!

This was an excellent start to a new series, but has the dreaded cliffhanger! Can't wait for book two!

Narrative was great from both Erin and Lance, really made the storyline come to life for me.
It was made clear from the start that it would end with a cliff-hanger, but OMG.

A Love So Good!

Would you consider the audio edition of A Love So Dangerous to be better than the print version?

That's a tough question because I absolutely loved the book, but the audio version definitely brought the story to life.

What was one of the most memorable moments of A Love So Dangerous?

When Gabe and Caitlyn have sex for the first time.

Have you listened to any of Lance Greenfield and Erin Mallon ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't heard them before but I thought that they did a fantastic job reading these characters.

The ending when Gabe is trying to end things with Caitlyn. I was difficult to read but heartbreaking to listen to.

Any additional comments?

AMAZING!!

This book was so much more than the blurb states. Caitlin has been left to care for her 3 brothers and niece. Gabe is an upstanding guy on the outside but underneath lurks a criminal. When Caitlin and Gabe cross paths, he brings her into his world as his partner in crime.

I really loved Caitlin and Gabe. Gabe was a good guy deep down and it showed in his relationship with Caitlin. They were only supposed to only spend the summer together and that had me super suspicious about Gabe. He just seemed so intent to end it but I was shocked by his secret. The ending....OMG. I would have never thought that would happen. I cant wait for the next book.

The narration of this book was AMAZING! I always loved Erin Mallon but I really liked Lance Greenfield too.

Kate

The story grabs you and won’t let go. When it ends you have to have book two! It is easy to get drawn into the characters of Carlin and Gabe. Well written and fast moving.

Awesome story, great writing and narration but, another author taking advantage of their loyal readers!

My title may seem harsh, to some readers, but I feel strongly about this subject. Why do some authors feel the need to break up a single novel into several parts which end in Cliffhangers?
Only one explanation makes any sense; for financial gain. Yes, this is a capitalist society and we all need to make enough money to survive but, shouldn’t a person do so with some kind of consideration about the consumer? Especially an author who should be trying to obtain loyal readers. If the story is a true trilogy, which is three full length novels that make a saga, that’s one thing, but 5 hour4 hr and another 5 hour is not a trilogy, it’s a rip off. If this wouldn’t have been part of the Romance package, I would have skipped it, which would have been too bad because this is an unique, entertaining romance.
Here’s hoping that authors learn a lesson when their books stop selling.
However, since this is part of the Romance package, I’m moving on to book 2.

Awesome Narrators

Narrators did a fantastic job :-)

Overall, this was a solid and enjoyable story but felt that it could have been condensed in 1 book.

A fantastic series!

A Love So Dangerous is #1 of 3 in the exciting and thrilling To The Bone series. Great narrators!
