Perfect Addition!

Ruined is the perfect addition to the Decadence After Dark series! I loved being able to see another glimpse into the the lives of these characters. I have devoured these first 3 books and desperately want more! M Never has quickly become an ultimate 1-click author for me!

The narration was pure perfection! Sam and Muffy did a fantastic job yet again!

Not bad

Not bad I like it, the story is engaging enough for me. I didn’t realize I was starting a series out of order but I don’t feel out of the loop so the author did a good job on that. Though I will admit I cringed anytime the narrator(s) would change their voices to “better suit” characters of the opposite gender (or of different ages). But other than that the narrators sound good to me. The audio sometimes obviously clips between sentences more evident in some places than others, but it’s most obvious when you’re wearing headphones. Overall I liked it so I may go back to start with book one or just continue on.

I want to be Ruined too!!

This final installment of Ellie & Kayne's story is basically the frosting a top a cupcake ;-)
It's like an extended epilogue of sorts since you are looking into their lives 4 years after the end of Claimed. We see their dynamic as a married couple, how they still like to play and indulge but we also see how they want more from their lives in the form of a family to call their own and for the past to be laid to rest. It is a very great way to give the listener a satisfactory conclusion to their story. Again, the narration just elevates the experience and brings to life these characters that you can't help but root for.

His POV

The only issue I have with this is there is not enough of his POV in this book.

Intense

This series was very intense. A lot happens over the time span of the first two books. The first book was great. The second book was better. I couldn’t really imagine what could happen in a third book. Well, I was right. The third book is really a very long epilogue. It could have been reduced and included as an epilogue in the second book. Something changed about Ellie in the third book, and she was getting on my nerves. Maybe I was just tired of her? I don’t know? It seemed like all she talked about was how much she loved having sex with her husband, and how intense and scary he could be. The first two books I definitely recommend. The third one could be left off if you don’t want to spend a few hours listening to what is, in reality, a 15 minute epilogue fluffed up to a whole book. Just imagine what happens at the end of most romance books, **spoiler** they love each other more and more, have more sex, and have two babies. There is one reveal toward the end about Kane’s mom, but it is really minor in the overall scheme of the story. It’s more fluff than actually contributing to the story.
