Deadly Dorian

Ward Security, Book 3

De: Jocelynn Drake, Rinda Elliott

Narrado por: Kenneth Obi

Someone is trying to kill Marc Foster.

Attempted poisoning was bad enough, but when the would-be killer messes with the brakes on Marc’s precious Porsche, the art dealer admits he needs help. He just wasn’t expecting help to be quite so dark and sexy.

Royce Karras loves his job at Ward Security. He’s making up for a lifetime of bad decisions and a bloody past he’d rather forget. But Marc isn’t the spoiled rich boy he thought he’d be protecting. Sticking close to Marc as his “boyfriend” gives Royce insight into his toxic family, but it also reveals a brilliant, compassionate man who completely disarms Royce. Against his better judgment, Royce finds himself falling.

But can they find a way to make it work when Royce’s past threatens to tear their lives apart? Their future hinges on a lost Renaissance painting, six Bichon Frises, and a pornographic Robin Hood.

No worries, right?

Deadly Dorian:Ward Security Book 3

Omg this audio book was absolutely positively amazing. I would highly recommend this audio book.

Loved it

Love all the Ward Security books! The story is engaging and the characters are so easy to fall in love with! Love the authors so much

Hooked On This Series

Found this series because of the narrator. I don't know that I would have picked the series to read, but since I am a fan of Kenneth Obi, I started going through his works. Stumbled on the first book and have waited, no so patiently, for each one after. Mystery, suspense, emotion and all the feels.

The characters are brought to life through the narration and Kenneth does a fabulous job of making each one unique. There were several side characters in this particular book and it was always easy to know who was speaking.

I sat on the edge of my seat.
I laughed out loud.
I cried the last half of the final chapter. Heart wrenching to happy.

Hot and Suspenseful

Suspense for both MCs while they fall for each other.
This was a great book. It’s been awhile since I heard the last book so I had forgotten that Ward Security is a spin-off of the Unbreakable Bonds series. A few characters are mentioned so I had to refresh myself. You don’t need it to get this book but it adds another layer to knowing these guys. I’m super bummed that those books aren’t in audiobook form. I am keeping my fingers crossed that someday the powers that be decide to make that happen. Ok, enough of a rant.
Royce is a bodyguard with a shady past who ends up protecting an art dealer who keeps having attempts on his life. The difference between these two’s backgrounds makes an interesting play for them falling in love.
Kennath Obi is great as usual. He’s def one of my favorite narrators.

omg!

Deadly Dorian

I loved this book the first time I read it. I didn’t think anything could better than reading this book but I was wrong. Kenneth Obi brought Marc and Royce to life. The emotions and passion had me teary eyed and emotionally wrung out. Yet the blasts of humor had me in stitches.
Hearing this book narrated made it feel like I was in the story as a side character to or even like I was watching a play or movie. By far the best work by Kenneth Obi in both the Ward Security and Unbreakable Bonds thus far!

Oh the voices ...

First things first. I'm a big fan, BIG fan of these two authors' books. The Unbreakable Bonds series is fantastic. The spin off series - aka where this book fits in, is just as great. They're hot, steamy, sexy, the men are complex and sweet and infuriating and just all sorts of good stuff. However ... man, the audiobooks are hard for me to listen to. Believe me, it has nothing to do with a preconceived idea of what the characters should sound like, oh no, not at all. The issue with this one, is the same as it was with the previous books, Kenneth Obi's attempt to make his voice deeper.

As I've said before, I get that this is a tough series to narrate because the books have like 10+ characters in them with dialogue. But when he's narrating (in this case) Royce's parts in dialogue, he sounds absolutely ridiculous. Like when a woman tries to imitate a man, so she sounds like she's puckering her lips. It's very obvious he can not maintain that level of tone of voice, and had he chosen to not go so low, it would have sounded way better. He did the same thing with Sven. It's just so incredibly obvious that it's totally distracting to me. I just wish he'd play around with voices just a little more in order to find tones that are more natural sounding.
