Passion Rising

Original Sin, Book 4

By: Johnathan McClain, JA Huss

Narrated by: Tad Branson, Ava Erickson

Old demons are back.

Maddie’s dealing with the fallout of her choices. Safety and happiness are relative, elusive things she’s desperate to have. But they will forever remain out of reach until the demons of her past are laid to rest.

Tyler’s mistakes resurface to haunt him, and he’s just beginning to understand that money can’t fix a broken relationship. He must open his heart and search for answers he’d rather not find.

She wants peace in a world made of chaos.

He wants to rid himself of a lifetime of guilt.

They’re soul mates, but that’s no guarantee. They’ll need to rely on each other to find their happily ever after.

Because the fight never ends - it just gets easier with someone at your side.

WOW.. IMO IT DOESN’T COME BETTER THAN THIS

Julie and Johnathan have truly written something special with this amazing four book series.. it’s utterly unique, sexy as sin, passionate and romantic, angst drama and suspense filled and each and every book is 100% enjoyable, compelling, entertaining and addictive. From the first book to the last, the range of feels within each are breathtaking, the twists are torturous wonders, the characters and storyline are multi-layered and deep.. and the banter is free-flowing perfection. Then there’s the hero and heroine’s lol inner monologues/dialogues (which I’m not usually a fan of).. but these mental musings are so humorous, amusing and insightful and I longed for more. The vast character development along their rollercoaster four book journey was mesmerizing and it led them into becoming the people they were always meant to be. Before the visible and invisible scars, before tragedy had struck, before duty had been served, before the years of hurt and rejection, before the loss of loved ones.. and before life-threatening danger. Forgiveness, understanding, a soul-to-soul bond.. and a sigh-worthy toe-curling love would eventually lead these soul mates into the beautiful calm waters of a HEA.. but they endured white-knuckle waves, raging seas, shark infested waters and a tsunami of feels before reaching them.

From Maddie and Tyler’s introduction in book 1, you learn of their very different lifestyles, their damaged haunted souls, their bitter and broken backstories, their beliefs and their fortuitous first meeting. And, while their heated attraction, seismic chemistry, invisible bonds and panty-melting sexy times pull them closer and closer, Fate, Destiny, Karma.. (and maybe even God himself) are all solemnly shaking their heads, waggling their forefingers from side to side in negative admonishment and collectively warning them and the listener to beware.. because there will be no happy ending for Maddie and Tyler until the last few chapters of book 4.

Worth a credit? One thousand x YES.. binge-worthy listening at its absolute finest.. each book leaves you craving the next and there’s no wonder it’s going to be made into something compelling for tv. Stupendous writing, talented authors, a well-paced flawless and unique plot line, twists and hooks, suspenseful and tension-filled drama, sensual passion-filled romance and some very hot sex scenes. And the entire dual POV series was stunningly brought to life by two well-loved narrators whose voices created the magic that mezmerized.. from the dusk of broken yesterdays, through the highs and lows of uncertain tomorrows.. and on to the new dawn of endless possibilities.. they captured, crafted and conjured every emotional scene.

smh

all I can say after listening to these 4 books is...wow! I loved Tyler so much. I personally love a man with a serious sense of humor and let me tell you, this guy had it all! And I loved Maddie who tried and failed so many times but never gave up! I mean, you always knew they'd be together at the end, but the road they traveled to get there was a long and winding one, and their journey was one of discovery for both of them and that's the best part! Julie and Jonathan, you are the best of the best and I can't wait for the next book! Also, the narration was the absolute cats meow! Ava and JM were awesome together!

A Dynamic Duo

I’ve read many of JA Huss’ books and have enjoyed some but not all. But I have never laughed and enjoyed such characters as Ty and Maddie as well as the supporting character in this series.

The story line was different and the narration was outstanding. At times Ty and Maddie both sounded crazy AF and it was hilarious. Some of the the monologues that went on in their heads were the funniest and the ones that had you on the edge. Not to mention that the sex was pretty hot and steamy.

Kudos to both of you for a job well done.

Loved! Loved! Loved!

All I can say about Julie and Jonathan’s first collaboration is ....you guys killed it!!! Never a dull moment, excitement throughout each of the 4 books. The characters were f...ing kick ass!!! Can’t wait to see what these two story tellers come up with next!!!

Where Do I Start...WOW!

JM Check the box... EOBS- you achieved what you set out. EVERY.SINGLE.THING. I never really knew what other books were missing until now, that depth of thought. I've read LOTS of books and come to love JA especially. Your dynamic really works. Tyler- the voice, the humor, all of it. He is just shy of out shining Maddie. I always rate, rarely comment but this series is....just different. I look forward to more!
