Reaper and Ruin

Saint View Murder Squad, Book 3

De: Elle Thorpe

Narrado por: Sean Crisden, Gregory Salinas, Theo Sinclair, Kelsey Navarro Foster

An explosion shatters the night. The three men I love are thrown from the bluff into the raging sea below.

And one of them can’t swim.

But the fall isn’t the only thing trying to kill us.

Every step we take, danger stalks closer.

Every breath we steal, the killer waits in the shadows.

When he rips someone I love away from me, the fragile family I’ve fought to build begins to unravel.

The killer has to be unmasked.

The ruin has to end.

Because this time, losing means more than death.

It means giving up the only people I can’t live without.

Reaper and Ruin is the final book in the Saint View Murder Squad trilogy. It cannot be listened to as a standalone. Start the series with book 1, X's and O's. Please note, Reaper and Ruin contains dark themes that may trigger some listeners.

so in love

Thank you for the joy,laughter and X!🥰
I can't wait to read Murder Squad again.

totally awesome

I was so entranced by the characters of this book, all 3 so far I cant wait for the next one! I love the crazy of X and how all the guys balance each other!

Wow!

I Love X!! Great conclusion to the story. I laughed so hard at times. For once I wasn’t able to predict who the bad guy was and loved the surprise. The bonus epilogue was amazing.

This is a "series" review for the three books

Elle Thorpe is a new author for me and I picked up this series because I love Sean Crisden as a narrator. I went in with no expectations or much of an idea what the series was about, and not really understanding the "why choose" concept.
I'm glad I bought the three titles together because Books 1 and 2 each end on a "doozy of a cliffhanger", so I could jump straight into the next title without having to yell at the universe for making me wait 🤣

📖 Story comment: Good pace, likeable characters, interesting plot
The series as a whole was enjoyable, had a good pace, keeping me engaged and I was completely invested in the outcome. I have no real favorite book in the series, each was as enjoyable as the last.
- Now I get the "why choose one, when I can have them all" concept !
Definitely has me looking at the back catalogue and future titles.

🎧 Narrator comment: I'm generally not a fan of multi narrator books, but this worked well. The Characters are well written and engaging and each performer had good timing, infections and intonations and bought their character to life, nailing the characters personality and emotional spectrum. I thoroughly enjoyed the banter, teasing and sarcasm in the dialogue.
The random sound effects were a bit odd though.

Keys: MC Club, Polyamory, morally grey murder, quirky psycho, found family, not an excessive amount of s3x, great banter

Great series, beginning to end!

The whole series left me on the edge b of my seat. Book 3 had me guessing from the moment it started, and begging for more at the end. It was tear-jerking, but in the most delightful way. The dialogue was delicious and had the best banter! Love this book!
