Craving

The Elite, Book 2

De: Hanleigh Bradley

Narrado por: Debbie Soelter

Craving. His was my blood. Mine was his touch. Farah's life is over in this PNR novelette from international best-selling Author, Hanleigh Bradley.

I've tasted your blood. I'll never forget it. I'll always crave it. I'll reintroduce you to the world you think you know. I'll show you everything and relish in you completely. When I'm done, I'll either kill you or change you. That will depend on whether or not I still desire you. Something tells me, I'll always crave you.

Craving is the second book in The Elite, a dark PNR vampire romance series. Death has never been so tempting. No one ever cares that they're dying, when it feels this good to die.

"I loved Everette. He is world weary but surprisingly enough he has a shadow of a heart that seems to beat while with Farah."

Wonderful story

I have enjoyed this wonderful heartfelt story of Elliott as he falls for the human.

Marvelous story!

Everette has been drawn to Farah for awhile, now, after their first introduction in the diner where she worked. He couldn't ignore her scent, and she couldn't see beyond his mesmerizing eyes. He knew that he wanted her, but he didn't know exactly for what. For now? Forever? There's a pull between them that is too strong to break. Farah knows that her death will be the ultimate end for her, but the hope that Everette might love her too much and let her live is what she secretly hopes for. This story is the continuing saga of their struggle for having control in their relationship and Farah's desire to make her own decisions, even as she's living with Everette. On the outside, they have a typically "human" love story but, on the inside, it's all consuming. References to Beings in the age-old vampire world give the story a thoughtful brush into the time when England wasn't ruled by a kind or a queen, she was ruled by The Mother. I found myself immersed not just in the Farah and Everette's story, but in the continuation of the story with Farah's introduction to Everette's MOTHER. This is not a cliffhanger, per se, it's merely a chapter break, awaiting book 3!
Debbie Soelter does a wonderful job with the narration. Each character has a well-defined voice with a unique personality. She helps bring Craving to life!

enjoyed it

Another amazing quick read that will draw you in and not let you go. Everett is still trying to figure out his feelings for Farah and why he's reluctant to end her. And when his "mother" shows interest it makes him feel even more conflicted.
I listen and read this and enjoyed it very much

A different kind of story

I am not really sure how I feel about this one. I did not know that vampires kept pets. It was an okay read for me.

I truly thought that The Elite was a duet but it is not. Craving is a super short (only an hour and a half long) novella with a plodding pace, steadily moving forward while building up the anticipation. Once again Debbie Soelter does a fabulous job narrating this story, going slow and building the tension. By this point I'm hooked and want to see what happens with Farah and Everette and the mystery that is unfolding.

I received this audiobook for free from StoryOrigin. This is my honest and voluntary review.
