Publisher's summary

This is not just a love story, it's an obsession...

Grace

The same week every year, he comes to my little resort in Maine for five days, then disappears. His darkness and his demons intrigue me, and I need to know his story.

I hope he shows up again this year, because I’m determined to talk to him and make him see me and not look through me like I don’t exist. Make him realize I’m not just some anonymous person who hands him a key.

No, this year will be different.

I haven’t gotten laid in a long time. So tag, he’s "it".

Nick

For the past three years, I’ve come up to this remote area to forget, to bury my grief. But this year, I don’t need a trip to this run-down resort, this little cabin on the lake, to survive this week. However, there’s one thing I’ve left behind each year when I head back to reality...

Her.

I’ve found the right woman who’ll fill the emptiness deep inside of me, the hole that’s lurked there for years. I can’t get her out of my head. Funny thing is, I don’t even know her name. I never asked. This year that’s going to change. And I hope she’s willing because, I’m taking complete control.

Please note: All books in the Obsessed series are stand-alone novellas. They are intended for audiences over 18 years of age since they include explicit sexual situations.

Wonderful Story & Narration🎧 Sweet & Spicy🔥Hot!

I enjoyed everything about this wonderful story, Jeanne St. James is a gifted author, she fit a lot of story into this novella sized book, the storylines she created are interesting and captivated me from start to end. I adored these two characters, they are realistic and easily relatable. Grace runs a resort in Maine, it is off season but she is expecting who has been renting one of her cabins for the past three years. He comes and hides himself away, does not talk or socialize with her or anyone. Grace has been lonely, she has been running the resort since her parents dies and does not have much of a social life. She has been expecting Nick and has plans for him. Little does she know he has plans for her as well including some play with toys. I loved how it all played out. From the hot scenes, to the romance and them getting to know each other better and their heartfelt moments. Thank you Jeanne St. James for this wonderful story.

I listened to the Audible edition, Ava Lucas and Aaron Shedlock are wonderful narrators and voice artists. They bring these characters to life, give them their own voice and personality. They do a great job capturing the mood& heat of the story and projecting the emotions of the characters into their performance. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another wonderful listen🎧

Sexy as all get out

This is one sexy as all get out novella that brings to mind caramel and hot fudge dripping decadently over a plate of rich chocolate ice cream that you just want to devour as one listens to the dulcet tones of Ava Lucas and Aaron Shedlock. Grace is an only child who was left a series of cabins in nowhere Maine by her deceased father. Due to the off the grid location, she does not get very many people visiting. However for the past few years, there has been one man, Nick, who has been coming regularly over the same week every year to escape from his past. Nick has never really paid any attention to Grace but this year something changed….and neither one will be the same.
Jeanne St. James has combined so many elements into this story that make it engrossing from beginning to end. If you are looking for that one quick listen to get your engines revving then this is the one to one click. I volunteered to listen to a copy of this audiobook.

Needing Him

The story is short I would have loved some actual storyline. The base of the story was really good and had lots of potential, but it is more erotic/bdsm than a regular storyline. The narration team is fantastic and what helped me finish the book.

Needing more!

This book was so good. It’s the first book I’ve read from the Obsession series and it was over too quickly! I will definitely be recommending this book and series for a quick and very passionate read and reading the rest of the series.

Hot, hot and very witty story

Warning: do not listen to this story unless you are alone or better yet, with someone who can meet your needs because this is one hot tale. This short story is told by very good presenters, alternately from Nick and Graces POV. Nick arrives for his annual visit to Grace's isolated cabins in Maine and, unbeknownst to each of them, they are both ready to jump the other's bones. Both are sex-starved and needy. Grace is very curious about the reasons behind Nick's brooding pilgrimage to be by himself in her deserted cabins each fall and Nick is ready to act on his growing desire for Grace. What Grace does not expect is that nick is ready to break out of his moodiness and ready for her. But she also does not expect that nick is a dominant male and he wants her as a submissive. What follows is very steamy and great fun for all, with a few surprises that you will have to discover for yourself. Well done!

Needing Him🔥

This standalone novella by Jeanne St James was a quick, hot listen. While I typically gravitate towards full length novels, St James framed the story so that the listener doesn’t feel like they’re starting the story in the middle or feel rushed toward the end. It was a perfect afternoon dose of hotness!
