SEXY, HOT, EXCELLENT LOVE STORY

This Book did NOT disappoint!! The spicy chapters are HOT af & the emotional chapters will have you in tears. This is my 1st time hearing Lessa Lamb narrate & she is Phenomenal!! Of course Joe is always Phenomenal, but the 2 of them together - SUPERB!!

One of my go to’s

I listen to this story often. The plot is great and the voice actors are amazing!!

The Story draws you in

This is my 1st read from this author and over I enjoyed this story with a few exceptions
Not sure if it’s just me but I’ve not enjoyed many women narrators & since the 1st half of the story is told by the female lead, was so excited when it finally got to my fav guy Joe Arden as he is amazing !
I would have enjoyed much more if the whole story were told by him as the way she spoke was a bit annoying at times and especially at the end.
The story was well written and I enjoyed the journey she took us on in their lives
This story does have spice but I’d give it about a 2 out of 5 as the fo

surprisingly sweet

this was a good book, sweet, dark, really went in depth into really understanding why he was the way he was and really went into depth about her life, it was just a really sweet story,it was spicy but not as detailed in the spicy scenes as I like but I would definitely read this again if I had a choice

Utterly captivating and delicious!

I’m beyond lucky as heck! I to have read and listened to OBSESSED by Serena Akeroyd!! Heck yes!!!!
Both are just utterly captivating and delicious!


OBSESSED is a complex broody love story, with so many brilliant layers woven into it, yet so sexy and hot at the same time that it will captivate you from the very first paragraph till the very end. Just Brilliant!

Holy Hotness!

So I haven't gotten into stalker type books before, but this book is absolutely fantastic. The narrators are amazing and I absolutely loved how they brought the story to life. Nicholas is amazing and I need a guy like him in my life. Phoebe is a sweetheart and an amazing mom to her little brother and I loved that dynamic. Such a great listen!

Hottt

Great story and lots of spice. There are triggers if you have some. But it’s so worth it. Such an amazing read.

Forbidden Romance - May Change Your Perspective!

I went into this audio book completely blind and it definitely surprised me! The characters were extremely complex- shaped by years of trauma, neglect and abuse. The story had me feeling one way about the characters at the beginning, and a completely different way by the end. The duel POV was done in a unique way. Instead of flipping back and forth, chapter by chapter, almost the entire first half was in Cora's perspective, and the second half in Nicholas'.

Without giving anything away, this is a forbidden romance between a professor and student. There is stalking, blackmail, and some degradation. The reader may feel very strongly about these things at the beginning of the story, but the author does an incredible job of exploring these characters, building their relationship, and making you feel more accepting and understanding by the end. (But please mind any trigger warnings.) On the one hand, it feels more like a slow burn, but it also has a lot of self-pleasuring scenes, so be aware of that going in.

The audio book was incredible. This was my first with Lessa Lamb and won't be the last. Her voice was beautiful to listen to and very soothing. She had me tearing up and feeling deep sympathy for her character's life situation. Joe Arden gave humanity to a character I was not fond of at all in the beginning, and then slowly began to understand his motivations and perspective. And as always, his performance was stellar- emotional and believable.

4 Stars. 4 Peppers (for spice). Highly recommend!

Loved it!

Holy Possessive, Stalker Romance! This is a such fantastic and HOT book! I loved every minute of this non traditional love story. The characters are s*xy as sin and the narrators of the audiobook did an amazing job bringing the hotness to life. I absolutely consider this a Must Read and/or Listen and highly recommend it in paperback (did you see that smexy cover?), ebook, and audiobook!

Delicious Dark Romance!

Being a lover, and a connoisseur of non-traditional dark romance love stories, let me tell you. This is one of my favorite books of the year. Serena just has such an amazing range in her writing style. There are so many things that were such pleasant surprises throughout this book. The way she wrote the first half of the book from the female POV and the second half male POV was genius. Professor Nicolas McLean has an obsession, and her name is Phoebe. He’s been watching her from a far, stalking her, protecting her for years. His obsession got kicked up a notch when Phoebe enrolled in his creative writing class. It was hard for him to be so close to her. One day he had an opportunity to blackmail her, and to have her under his thumb. To do his dirty, sexy biddings. Phoebe is just a young woman going to college full-time, working two jobs to support her infant brother and her non-functioning alcoholic mother. She’s just a sweet girl, loyal, and and naïve to her beauty. There are some of the most erotic and sexy scenes! This man makes just watching so darn sexy and erotic. I was totally not expecting some shocking revelations about his past. Phoebe’s character growth was amazing. She was both equal equally terrified of him, and half aroused by him.
Lessa Lamb and Joe Arden both gave stellar performances. Lessa portrayed Phoebe perfectly! Lessa was able to make you feel Phoebe’s determination, disappointment, rage, confusion, and love and lust. She had to play pretty much all the the spectrum of emotions. Lessa was phenomenal. Joe Arden was the perfect choice to play Nicholas. Joe has a perfect voice for the Professors dark characters. Borderline psychotic at times. His low rasps were bone chilling. The whisper groans, HOT! Joe also gave such great vulnerability as well. The amount of filthy dirty talk he delivers was exceptional. He made you root for their eventual HEA.
