Headcase

Necessary Evils, Book 4

By: Onley James

Narrated by: Liam DiCosimo

Length: 8 hrs and 38 mins

Publisher's summary

Asa Mulvaney is half of a psychopathic whole. He and his twin brother live together, party together…kill together. In the Mulvaney family, murder is the family business and business is good. So, when an experiment separates Asa and his brother, Asa is forced to navigate the world on his own for the first time in his life.

Zane Scott is a small-time crime blogger and amateur sleuth, but he dreams of a byline in a major paper someday. When he winds up at a boring fundraiser beside Asa Mulvaney, they share an intensely passionate encounter that leaves Zane with an ache in his chest and a story idea that could make his career dreams a reality.

At a nearby college, a cluster of suicides isn’t what it seems. When Asa’s father asks him to look into it, he sees the perfect opportunity to see his little crime reporter again. And Asa needs to see him again. Zane’s suspicious of Asa’s motives, but he won’t say no to a chance to peek behind the Mulvaney family curtains.

As the two unravel a sinister plot, Asa’s obsession with Zane grows and Zane finds being Asa’s sole focus outweighs almost anything, maybe even his career—which is good for Asa because loving a Mulvaney is a full-time job. Can he convince Zane that he’s worth navigating a family of psychopaths and his pathologically jealous twin, or will Zane learn the hard way that the Mulvaney boys always get what they want? Always.

Headcase is a high-heat, intense, lovers-to-frenemies, psychopath romance with an HEA and no cliff-hangers. It features an obsessive, calculating psychopath and a wannabe reporter who will stop at nothing to earn himself a major byline. As always, there’s gratuitous violence, very dark humor, enough killers to fill an auditorium, and enough heat to melt your audiobook player. This is book four in the Necessary Evils series. Each book follows a different couple.

Unique and Thrilling

I absolutely love this series. From the beginning of book one I was hooked. I had been really looking forward to the twins’ stories and this book exceeded my expectations!

Great choince of the voice actor

I’ve already been enamoured with the story when I read the the ebook but there’s something about hearing it that makes it even better. The narrator does a great job portraying all characters without falling into the pitfall of doing silly voices. It’s very easy to listen to, even at 1,5 speed. Highly recommend.

Great listen, excellent series!

Highly recommend! This series is amazing and I loved Asa and Zane, their predator and prey dynamic is super compelling and their chemistry is off the charts. I really loved the mix of danger and sweetness with this couple, especially how Asa makes it his mission to help heal the damage Zane carries from his brother’s death and his parents disregard. The narrator does an excellent job bringing both the relationship and mystery to life. This one has an excellent mystery for the Mulvaney’s to investigate and bad guys that are really terrifying. Fun, steamy and engaging listen.

Aw

This book was so cute. loved how the romance went, it was like a whirlwind. everything hit hard and fast and lasted. Also, I completely love how it described the twins and how their twinning works with them specifically. It seems really cool and really makes u wonder...

My guilty pleasure

Fun , over the top, silly , fluffy, with gratuitous violence and lots of steamy encounters sums of this story. One listen/reads books as this one just to escape from the everyday.

Liam DiCosimo narration was good.

This series keeps on rolling!

Another great book in the Necessary Evils series. Asa and Zane are a great couple and the exploration of their relationship is great. I loe how Asa is explored in relation to his twin and how their differences and similarities are defined more and hopefully will roll out into more detail in Avi's book. Zane is loveable and has a massive amount of sass and Asa is dark and charming.

I have read both the digital and audio versions of this book and the audio version is excellent. The narrator does an amazing job and is incredibly easy to listen to and doesn't distract away from the story at all. I enjoyed reading the digital copy I bought but for some reason the audio version just feels like "more."

Asa and Zane

Holy smokes. I loved the chemistry between Asa and Zane. The kink was hot as well. I absolutely love this entire series. The narration is , as always, spot on.

Amazing!

This book is everything. I'd been waiting for Asa and Zane's story since the teasers started flowing, and it didn't disappoint! Avi and Asa are some of my favorite characters in this series, so finally getting the chance to delve into their heads, their unique relationship, and how they end up finding their people has been an extreme pleasure.

The audio version of this book was amazing (as usual)! Liam DiCosimo always does a fantastic job, and I'm extremely fond of his voice for the twins.

Asa and Zane's relationship is fantastic, and Zane may be my new favorite love interest character in the series. He's honestly so sweet, and there's something so relatable about the way he feels and loves.

I was also a big fan of the storyline for this one. It was a wild ride and enjoyable from start til end!

Things I loved:
Murder Twins
Zane is honestly the most precious thing.
Amaaaaaaazing spice.
Primal? Did I mention primal?
The romance/relationship development!
We get to see more of our favorite characters from the previous books, and I'm living for it.

Enjoyable

This listen was really good, I enjoyed Asa and Zane story.I like how quickly Zane fell into Asa life once he learned the truth. I love how Thomas ( the father) bring each new love interest into the fold, his tactics are made for each individual man to understand for their level of comfort. So far still Adam is my favorite brother.

my favorite

Asa is definitely my favorite Mulvaney ever since he and Avi were described as the murder twins. I'm so glad this has come to audible. I love Asa and Zane together so much, their banter is the best. I'm so happy this series exists.
