Bells

The Boys of Chapel Crest, Book 2

De: K.G. Reuss

Narrado por: Desiree Ketchum, Joe Arden, Michael Gallagher, Sean Masters, Edward Black, J. Tipstone

Before I found a love I was willing to die for, I had to survive one I had to kill for.

Chapel Crest wasn’t a place of solace. It was made for suffering.

I would know.

I’d been locked inside ever since my mother tossed me away like I didn't matter.

In my suffering though, I found her.

Isabella.

The girl who made me believe I mattered.

The girl I gave everything to.

The girl I loved.

The girl I would do anything for, even kill for.

Or just plain kill.

Because you don’t betray a watcher and live to tell about it.

This is the prequel to Chapel Crest and is best heard AFTER book one. It tells the tale of Sin and Isabella through multiple POVs before Sirena. This is a dark tale of greed, deception, and all things that hurt. Please listen to the foreword.

📖 I loved getting the backstory on Bells and why one particular members of The Watchers doesn’t want to claim our girl. Seeing him before everything went down was so sad, he was so different 🥺 and oh boy did we learn some disturbing background on Bells. I loved this one, but I’ll also be ready to get back to the main timeline!

🎧 The audio once again was absolutely amazing! The narrators all perform this so well and the casting was done to perfection! This is a must listen on audio series if you are ready to dive in!

Karma wins

Karma gets her justice one way or another. Unfortunately there’s always casualties, even if they’re not in the picture yet.

Really brought the story to life!

the voices were well considered and brought the characters for an already amazing story. Bells is a character you love to hate, but the story is necessary and well done!

Desiree Fricken Ketchum!!

Bells is book 1.5 in The Boys of Chapel Crest series by K.G. Reuss. This is a prequel and should be read after Church.

We got the cliff notes of why Sinclair (Sin) was pushing Sirena away in Church, but the full story was nothing compared to that. Sin fell hard and fast for Bells, after a lifetime of hurt he thought he had finally found love. Unfortunately Bells was only using Sin to get close to Church.

My jaw was on the floor from chapter 20 until the end. The twists and turns were epic! Bell and Sin’s relationship was Toxic with a capital T. There were times I felt bad for Bells given all she had been put through in her short life, but in the end she deserved what she had coming for her vile acts. I just wanted to hug Sin, but I’m still not happy with him after Church. I loved glimpsing into The Watchers’ friendship pre-Sirena plus their relationship with Asylum. Bring on the next book! I am still reeling over the Church cliffhanger!

Desiree fricken Ketchum people!!! I adore her narration and despite the absolute vile things Bells said and did, Desiree’s performance was top tier! Michael Gallagher was phenomenal as well, he brought Sin’s raw emotions to life beautifully. We heard more from Asylum in this one and Sean’s unhinged performance was amazing. Since this story primarily follows Bells and Sin we don’t hear as much from Joe Arden, Edward Black and J.Tipstone, but what we do hear just enhances this great audiobook.

Deserved

Spoiler!!! Stop reading now. You have been warned. Super simple....she deserved what she got. At first I didnt think there was anything someone could do to deserve that kind of death but after reading this Isabella you deserved all that. You were one cold heartless bitch.

“Crazy Has a Name, and It’s Isabella”

“Before I found a love I was willing to die for, I had to survive one I had to kill for.”

Welcome back to Chapel Crest—where suffering isn’t just expected, it’s practically the main event. And in this prequel, we finally get Sin and Isabella’s story before Sirena ever walked into the picture. Multiple POVs, plenty of darkness, and enough twisted betrayal to keep you glued to your headphones.

Now, let me just say… the full cast narration? Perfection. Desiree Ketchum, Joe Arden, Michael Gallagher, Sean Masters, Edward Black, and J. Tipstone didn’t just read this book, they performed it. Every scream, whisper, and broken promise hit like a gut punch.

But the real chaos? Bells. Good lord, if you ever think you’re a little unhinged, meet Isabella. That girl took “crazy” to a PhD level. She didn’t just break Sin—she obliterated him. She might not have killed him like she wanted to, but she sure as hell shredded his heart and his mind until there was nothing left but shadows.

And here’s the thing—I loved seeing this side of Sin. He wasn’t the cold, calculated Watcher from Church. He was soft. Loving. Hopeful. And it hurt to see him weak, but it also made me understand him in a way I never had before. Suddenly, all of his choices later—the betrayal, the brutality, the walls he built—make perfect, devastating sense.

Dark. Twisted. Heart-wrenching. Bells isn’t just a prequel—it’s the missing piece that makes Sin’s story hit that much harder. And trust me… once you’ve heard Isabella’s brand of madness, you’ll never look at Chapel Crest the same way again.

Great Story, Great Narrators!

I usually find that I prefer to read the books over listening to them but these narrators elevated this already amazing book! The spicy scenes were 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 (no pun intended 😜) and the storyline was beyond anything my mind could ever think up! I highly recommend not only this book, but the series, and the entirety of the Chaos world it’s connected to!

Amazing Listen!!

Desirée Ketchum, Edward Black, J. Tipstone, Joe Arden, Michael Gallagher & Sean Masters are absolutely incredible in this KG Reuss book. The story was so good and you really could feel the emotions the characters were going through.

Great Book

Great series. love all the characters. just when I find a favorite another one is introduced

Sin just wants to be loved

I have already read the book but hearing it as an audiobook was so much better. I totally forgot how much I dislike Bells and how much I truly felt for Sin. The voice actors in this were perfect and fit the characters really well. I seriously can't wait for the rest of this series, and others by this author, to be in audiobook.
