Doc

Burnout, Book 5

By: Dahlia West

Narrated by: Mason Lloyd

Caleb Barnes is on a mission. He's retired from the Army, but he's waging his own private war now. And though the men of Burnout are his former brothers-in-arms, Caleb fights his battles alone. Caleb was tainted from the moment he was born. He's always been alone and he'll always be alone. The world has no place for a man like him.

Isabelle Boucher is on a mission of her own. She doesn't want to go it alone, but there's no other choice these days. She won't give up or give in, not until she reaches the end of the line.

Caleb's convinced he's no good for anyone, especially not women. There's nothing he can offer a woman but pain and devastation. But Isabelle needs help and to refuse goes against everything Caleb stands for.

Can two people alone for different reasons come together for a common cause? And once they do, will they ever want to be apart again?

Contains mature themes.

Great crime drama with a tough of romance

Part of a series. Can be read as a standalone.

Well-written crime drama with detective work and suspense. Oh, and a romance along the way.

Intriguing main and secondary characters.

A few hot scenes. Mostly vanilla.

I like the narration.

Two lonely individuals find love

Izzy is an independent female and Caleb did not try to change her.
I felt the author did a great job of depicting the development of the relationship. And I must mention the narration, it was superb.
I prefer this story, I did not like the Tex storyline.

Went out on a high!!! Def one of the best of the series

Definitely saved one of the best for last. I almost gave up on this series after listening to hawk and Tex-who are 2 of my favorite characters, however their stories were not my favorite at all. Easy came up a bit but Docs story is amazing with a strong female and some great action. Love how strong they both are and how this story develops. So good! So happy I read it. Love shooter and this one the most. So good!!

Not bad at all

While I found the book was too short the story was pretty good. I listened/read all 5 books only 3 made the cut. Sadly Hawk and Easy didn't get the best stories. I like Izzy because she was a really strong, no nonsense woman. I loved how she stood up to Doc and made things happened. He was a bit of a twisted mess and she was more than willing to stand by him and help him. I would have liked a couple of extra chapters to finish the series properly.

Good Book. Great Narration

Any additional comments?

This audio book is 1 in a series but can easily be listened to as a stand alone. The characters are so great that I would have a hard time thinking about listening to this alone not knowing all the unique personalities of the other characters. I can recommend this book but I would say that what made it so enjoyable was knowing all the other characters so well from the previous books in the series. As far as the narration goes, it was excellent. This narrator has brought the characters to life in a perfect way. He did an excellent job.
