First Chorus

Cardinal Sins, Book 2

De: Heather Long, Blake Blessing

Narrado por: Kate Coakley, Adam Gold

They say you can’t save a person who doesn’t want to be saved.Good thing I wasn’t trying to save her—only back her up, every step of the way.

My name is now Rick Drew. Fresh out of a facility they called a hospital and I called a cage, I wasn’t looking for redemption. I wasn’t looking for anything. Then I found her bleeding in an alley, and everything I thought I wanted burned to ash.

Vienna Drew is sharp edges and steady hands, the only person who's ever seen the fractured pieces of me and didn’t flinch. She didn’t run. She drew a line in the dirt and dared me to cross it. So I did. Now I’d kill for her. I’d die for her. I’ve already done worse.But she’s not mine alone.

Fletcher—too clever, too loud, too damn charming—comes with secrets that breathe down our necks and danger with a smile. I don’t like him. I don’t trust him. But she does. So I’ll keep him alive. And if his chaos touches her? I’ll end it.

Because keeping her safe is the only thing that makes sense anymore.

And just when I thought I could keep the monsters outside, a new one steps into the ring. He wears a badge, but I see the way he watches her—like a predator. Like prey. I don’t care which. If he’s a man, he’ll bleed. If he’s a monster, I’ll make sure he begs first.

Vienna’s chasing death like it owes her something. And me? I’m the shadow behind her, the silence before the storm.

Let them come. I’ve already decided who I protect—and what I’m willing to do to make sure she lives long enough to burn the world down.

First Chorus is a full length dark adult romance and psychological thriller with suspenseful themes. Any trigger warnings will be included in the foreword. Some situations may be uncomfortable for listeners. This is a reverse harem novel, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. This is book two in the series.

Great book! Enjoyed the narration. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Like many of this author’s books.

WOW!!! Entertaining and sexy!!!

If you liked butcher and blackbird then you will like this more!!! Funny suspenseful sexy!! Love it!!! Can’t wait to start the next!!! Adam Gold is awesome!!!!!

Suspense and stakes continue to rise

The suspense continues to ramp up here, and the stakes feel higher. Vienna is juggling her relationships with Merrick and Fletcher while dealing with the fallout from book one, and the guys are slowly figuring out how to coexist for her sake. It's entertaining watching them navigate that dynamic. The mystery deepens, more secrets get revealed, and the tension stays high throughout. The spice is plentiful and well-done. Another cliffhanger ending, because of course. But I was hooked enough to keep going.

I love this series!

it's getting to really know the characters as much as it is progressing in plot. it's interesting wording and idk, it's just really freaking good.

also, cheese graters and icy-hot.

Excellent Story and Narration!!

⭐️ 4.5 Audiobook

Romantic Suspense / Reverse Harem / Strong FMC / FMC Serial Killer / Vigilante Morally Gray MMCs / Criminal Underworld / FBI / Cliffhanger

I was hooked right away and dove right away into the series. Definitely recommend to have the next book /audiobook ready as each one ends in a crazy cliffhanger!!

Audiobook was absolutely amazing. Adam Gold and Kate Oakley were absolutely amazing, and with their voice changes and acting skills, it was even better than some “full cast” narrations I’ve listened to. Because of the amount of male characters, Adam Gold’s talents really shined through.

The story is gray, not fully black full on horror. Loved the mystery and personal favorite is Rick with his Labrador heart and acts of service love language that turns full cold if Vienna is hurt physically or mentally.

Cash is annoying beyond belief, with his unrelenting bullheadedness but he does get better as the series continues.

Second fav, is our geeky Lothario, who’s admittingly more lover than fighter to a hilarious degree. On the last book now!
