Storm

Ashes & Embers, Book 1

De: Carian Cole

Narrado por: CJ Bloom

I felt the wind rustle, warning me, telling me to get out of its path - but I didn't. I never stood a chance.

A series of weather and road mishaps leave me trapped in the middle of a blizzard with a complete stranger. In the back of a pickup truck. For 48 freakin' hours.

A stranger with long hair, tattoos, and rippling with muscle. A stranger with an insanely sexy voice and a wicked smile that turns my insides to jelly. A stranger who holds me in his arms, calms me, and then sets a fire in me that I can't put out.

Some people chase storms for the beautiful thrill. What happens when the storm chases you?

Contains mature themes.

Refreshing Rock Star Romance

I listened to the audiobook of Storm this week. I already loved the book. The narration was great. I think having Evie's voice really helped me to "hear" her point of view even more. In the beginning she is such a timid soul, but with Storm's encouragement she can let her light shine.

"Evie, you gotta stop living in fear. You can't see the stars unless you go out in the dark."

I SO loved that there was no "cheesy" stuff. The writing was beautiful and the story didn't need to rely on forced drama!

"You look scared. His voice is soft and even. I nod a little. Yes, I'm scared. Scared he will kiss me, and scared he won't"

I think Evie was a bit damaged and fragile but loved the way that Storm took care of her! I kind of felt that there was a lot of her background that was just touched upon that would explain her hesitancy, etc.

"Sometimes, it's easy to slip into denial about what's going on in life. It's safer and easier to exist within the confines of what is comfortable than to venture out and allow yourself to experience new things that might shake the foundation that has become your safety net.

Very Good Look Forward to Book 2

Loved this book. It was nice to have a tattoo hard rock guy instead of the usual kind of pretty boys and it was sizzling.

WOW!! VERY SURPRISED!!!!

I LOVED this book!!! The narration was great! Story line kept me hanging on and wanting more and more !! You could just feel the attraction of Storm and Evie - I LOVE when the hard rocker is actually a sweetheart under the piercings and tats. Hot, Steamy, Romantic with a little heartbreak and everything in between.... What more could you ask for in a AWESOME story!!!

Good and true story

Didn't have a hunk like Storm but was stuck in a ditch for 12 hours. Good story line. I love a book that has a possible truth to it. This one does!

Loving Storm from now on...

What a delicious, funny book!!!
They met in a snow storm and their connection was instant...as well as the fights, witty banter and a sweet friendship.
Everything sweet from the beginning.

Falling in love with this author!

My second Carian Cole book, and I cannot say enough good things about it! Storm literally takes your heart by storm. The minute he started calling Evelyn Evie, I was a goner. This story is heartfelt from the beginning. Caught in the snowstorm, stuck in the cabin, caught in a long term relationship, dating a rockstar who just wants to be loved for himself...I could not get enough. I loved that even though Storm is the famous, stage loving performer, he is a private man wanting to have a normal relationship. I loved that Evie was strong enough to make her decisions(though a couple of times I wanted to smack her to make it quicker!) and start her new life. Carian Cole brought it all.

CJ Bloom read this book. She never ceases to amaze me with her talent, always drawing you in and making you see and feel exactly what is going on. Perfection.

Beautifully done

Surprising twist with every woman's dream, sizzling bed scenes with perfect mix of romance and life lessons

Loved the story!

I have the story in Kindle, so thought I'd try it in audible. While I love this series, I wasn't overwhelmed by the narrator. At times I thought she was a whiny, and in my opinion, was trying too hard to cover all of the voices in the story.

Steaming hot!

This book was very unique and I loved the characters. I can't wait to listen to the rest of this series. Storm really was like an onion, so many layers to him and each was pleasant. The female character was naive and annoying at times.

Had to listen to this twice!

I absolutely love this story. I listened to this one twice over the past couple months because I love it that much. The story is so sweet and progresses nicely... I love Storm and enjoy their witty banter with each other. I’ll have to keep this one in my library to listen to again when I get the urge
