Publisher's summary

When Felix lands a job taking care of a man recovering from severe injuries, he thinks his life may have just turned around. Anything has to be better than the place he's leaving. There's something about Lane that draws Felix to him and makes him question if this place could finally become a home for him. But when someone begins stalking Felix, he is left to question who Lane is and what actually happened to him.

Together, Felix and Lane will be forced to see just how far they will go to protect each other. Being chased by cops, kidnapping a man, and breaking into a drug operation seems to be his normal since arriving in Lane's life. Felix may be out of his element, but one thing he is sure about is that he doesn't want to leave, even if it costs him his life.

Editing audio could be better

Joel did a pretty good job performing, but the pauses were annoying.... "he said." Fun story, though. Good job, Alice. Thanks for the entertainment.

Love This Book

This book is hilarious, exciting, action-packed and one of my favorite books. I have both read and listened to it many times.

Action, Humor, and Love

This book had it all – humor, action, drama, love, sex, and snark…oh my, the snark! Felix is snarky and cute with a stubborn streak a mile wide. Which is good, he needs all the stubbornness and determination he can muster to go up against the pigheadedness of Lane, the newly blind cop. Felix is hired to be Lane’s caretaker, but Lane wants nothing to do with him. Felix, however, is not about to lose a good paying job just because his client is mad at the world and wants to sulk alone. Through sheer determination, and a quick-witted quips, Felix manages to build a relationship with Lane that soon turns physical and then romantic. While Felix and Lane are busy falling in love, they soon find that despite Lane being injured and blind, he is still not out of danger.

The story is fast paced and hilarious. This humor may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I drank it up greedily. There was a few aspects of the plot and action scenes that may not have been realistic, but that was okay. This book was not about being realistic and was all about being fun and entertaining.

Narration: Joel Leslie does a wonderful job bringing Felix and Lane alive and I found myself laughing out loud in the car as I listened to the book.

Overall Rating: 5 Stars. I really enjoyed Alice Winter’s writing. She has a fun, easy style that flows very well. I also love her humor and creativity. The plot was interesting and the characters were fantastic. I highly recommend this book.

Great

I've seen lots of ppl give amazing reviews about this series, so I picked it up on sale without much hesitation

First, yes this first book I loved. Was it as funny as ppl said? No, not to me. But everyone has has their own opinion.
However, the story was engaging. I found Felix and Lane as well as the other characters intriguing. The plot was interesting and kept me entertained throughout.
I can't wait to Que up the next one in the series

Joel Leslie did a wonderful job with the narration of all the characters.

Definitely worth it

This made me laugh out loud multiple times and the people at my work thought I was crazy. Worth it. The snark is so ok point, which is a given with Alice Winters. I wasn’t sure about the narrator at first, but he grew on me and by the end I was fully on board. I will be getting the next book in the series no question.

Hidden In Darkness

I liked the book and Joel’s performance although I got used to hearing his narrations of Louisa Masters’ CSG/DEA etc. book series so it was a tad jarring the way Joel paused between saying a sentence and then stating who said it (or the rest of the paragraph). Other than that I really enjoyed it and highly recommend.

Funny and interesting story

First thing to be mentioned is narration by Joel Leslie. He is so great,he changes his voice so good that sometimes I forget that there is only one narrator. He brings characters to life,that I can really relate to them.
I also liked the story, especially humor between Felix and Lane and how they poke each other. Looking forward to books 2&3.

Great Listen!

This was my first Alice Winters read and, honestly, I bought the audio book because I am a HUGE Joel Leslie fan. It was an excellent decision. It's a fast paced read filled with action and humor.

Exciting and humorous crime story.

No one expects great fiction from an LGBT erotic audible book. Sometimes we luck out and find sn unusually good one. Hidden in Darkness was not one of those, but it did provide humor and held my interest until the "Bad Guy" is cought.
The only downside for me is Joel Leslie's narration. I find his voice annoying and try to tune it out otherwise the story is ruined for me.

And Joel Leslie rocks!!!

I bought this audible because I'm a big fan of Joel Leslie job.I found myself laughing a lot with the book, this couple are so cute, my heart aches with Felix life before.They are mean to be and after a lot of dangerous moments only the love can help them heal together.I love again the performance that Joel Leslie did with the characters, he is a genius changing the voices and the emotions with every situation.Love it❤❤Highly recommended to listen.
