Cheating Bastard

By: Devon McCormack

Narrated by: Michael Dean

Length: 1 hr and 34 mins

Publisher's summary

He can get away with anything....

Anytime, anyplace. Blake never has problems finding tricks, and he's learned that half the fun is in doing it behind his boyfriend Todd's back. But when Todd suggests a threesome to reignite their relationship, the opportunity to bring in one of his regulars and dupe his boyfriend right under his nose is too tantalizing to resist.

Todd loves Blake, but after Blake's cancer treatments, it seems nothing Todd does can excite him. For six months, he's waited patiently for his boyfriend's interest to return, but it's clear if he doesn't do something drastic, nothing will change. In a desperate attempt to save their relationship, he suggests a threesome. He expects it to be difficult. He expects to get jealous. What he doesn't expect is to have the hots for their new toy...and for both of them to want Blake out of the picture.

Warning: This story contains violent, brutal, and sadistic situations that some listeners might be uncomfortable with. Although Devon McCormack writes romance, this is not a romance and does not contain a happy ending. Look elsewhere for love because here there is only pain, darkness, and sadism.

dark, dark,dark

well it's definitely not a happy ending, it was a good book in a dark way it's normally not my kind of read but I loved Kyle and Todd's story to bad in the end they lost what they could have had because of Blake's psycho ass

Sick and Twisted

In the best way. Dark and darker. Not for the faint of heart. If you have an open mind and don’t need a stupid happy ending, this is for you.

Thought I knew what would happen, but I was wrong!

This quick listen was certainly not a romance, but packed a lot in and the twist at the end was a doozy! Narration was fine and matched the story.

No HEA

I love the author but what happened to happily ever after? I was truly disappointed about the ending.

Wow! 😳😳

I really enjoyed this book as I was looking for a dark romance listen. I have become a fan of Devon’s and enjoy Michael’s narration. I wish that the end was a bit longer as I wanted to know if the Blake was caught.

For those reviews that said there was no HEA (and rated low bcuz of this) it states clearly that this is not a book with an HEA and it’s a VERY dark story. Always read the summary to know what you’re getting into so you’re not surprised.

Overall, I enjoyed listening but wanted more scenes with Todd and Kyle. Blake was a dirty dog.

Letting His Darkness Out To Play!!

Yikes!! The HORROR genre should have been added to the descriptor. As a former therapist, with no life-experiences for this to trigger, I appreciated this departure from the typical storyline of the author. We were warned, and accurately too, without love nor a HEA to be found. Just Mr. Sociopath getting his SICK on.

I agree with one reviewer who adamantly stated "once was enough." Michael Dean did his usual magic with what was put before him!

Be Warned

I had read the reviews and so felt between that and the title, I was prepared.

I was not.

No complaints - it just didn't go where I thought it might.

When there is a narcissistic man who loves pulling the strings and playing those around him like puppets, there's no way you can have a happy ending.

And you won't get one.

Michael Pauley is great and I love Devon's other books. If you want something very quick, very different, very dark, very gritty, very dirty, and without a happy ending, this is your listen.

Definitely Dark

Be prepared to meet a gaslighting narcissist at their finest.
Devin has clearly written on a subject matter that too many have become the subject.

loved the book, adored the audiobook

Michael Pauley really brought some depth and character into the story. he really made me see what was going on in a whole new way. This was my first audio book I finished and now I think I may be hooked! Really hoping McCormack surprises us with an audio of Lying Bastard. ;-)

You get what you ask for

Seriously, don’t think this a dark romance or even a sexy book without a happy ending. This book is beyond sadism, it’s sociopathic.

This book is exactly what it says it is, and it’s so so good. Short, twisted and Fucked up.

Spoiler: there is rape and murder and no hope for anything good to come of it all.
