Insatiable

Vino & Veritas

De: Rhys Everly

Narrado por: Kale Williams

It was just a bet . . . until feelings got involved.

This job sucks but someone's got to do it. My readers expect me to chronicle my very real, very steamy encounters in my novels. I'd never want to disappoint my fans, but the creative well has run a bit dry. Burlington, Vermont, seems like a good place to fill it up. This town offers a tempting array of artists, craftsmen, farmers, lumbersexuals . . . and so many beards.

But no one prepared me for Brody. He's young. He's hot. He's definitely a grump. And he's getting under my skin. Where I want him is under my bed sheets.

When my friend bets I'll never be able to get Brody there, I make winning my mission. Turns out being with Brody is more than a plot device. He's so very wrong for my life . . . but is he right for my heart?

Contains mature themes.

Great listen

Another great addition to this series. beautifully written by Rhys Everly . really awesome narration by Kale Williams, he did a wonderful job bringing this story and all of its characters to life. this series is outstanding!

Kinda short

Not bad but it was too short for my liking. But I still love this series

Helping A Guy Out

Logan sort of sees himself almost as a character and frankly at the beginning of the book I didn’t like him very much. But as he begins to help Brody for the sake of really helping and not just to win a bet I began to see him in a new light. I loved the ways he stepped in and helped Brody see his own potential. I was so upset at the “third act break-up”. I like the way things are resolved in the end. The narrator did a wonderful job voicing both characters.

Wanna Bet

I ugly cried on the final chapter. I can't believe it! This series is taking me through it. I just realized I skipped book 9. Now I got to go back to Turnabout.

Insatiable!!!

I truly enjoyed this auto book. It was interesting, funny, emotional and whimsical. I can’t wait to listen to another book from this author. Also, the narrator was very very good as well.

So good!

My favorite so far in this series. It pushed all the right buttons. Such a great book.

What stood out the most?

The expert narration, the story, and the unique CHaf ("currently happy af.") I despise HEA/HFN.

So much potential, IMO, but it's not very well written (excluding the few intimate bits😍.)
And the characters aren't well rounded and relatable. Chemistry: wobbly at best.

But it's far from awful.

The best way I can describe it: 3 writers were given an identical and detailed outline of the story. One is a good, solid writer and the second is average.

The 3rd didn't take their Adderall.

This story is snippets, paragraphs and pages from all three novelists.

I find this book far more entertaining than many others in the series and definitely reccommend it.

Brody and Logan

Kale Williams is a great narrator…really kept me engaged and made each character distinguishable! I really like all the characters (well except the ex) and the storyline. Again it was a little fast on the being in love, but at least this couple seemed to spend more time together to make me say maybe. Looking forward to Skylar’s story!

Part of the Vino and Veritas world.

I've read this author before, but never as a solo. I listened to the audio book. This is part of the Vino and Veritas world. Logan is an erotic author from the UK who is visiting Burlington, Vermont. Brody is a grumpy local who's world keeps taking hits from his ex. Logan is a bed hopping player who fall in love with a local. Slow burn. Brody is a sweetheart who do not deserve what has happened to him. This book ends in a HEA.

Ugh

Sorry, I’ll try to keep spoilers limited but I have thoughts.

Just when I was fully invested in Logan and Brody - both of whom I really loved and their relationship was sweet, they came through so much together and also had finally dealt with the stupid ex - the ridiculous 3rd act breakup happened and I was trying to tell if the characters were really that idiotic and suddenly blind to their love or if it was just badly written, which I wouldn’t expect from Rhys Everly. But then the way it went down even cheapened the eventual reuniting and ending, which made me so sad!!! Okay fine they’re together because we expect a HEA but ugh. I was yelling at them both so much the last few chapters. Also, the ending was so sudden which didn’t help. As I said, I cared - and wanted *them* to care!

That said, for the most part, I *did* love the book, I promise, and still recommend it. And Kale Williams was amazing voicing both of them and did the differing accents to perfection. I do hope we get to see more of Logan and Brody living out that happily ever after in other books in the series, though.
