Best series since the Womens Murder Club.

I love the series. I cannot wait until the next one. It has outstanding story lines and unique characters. Never a dull moment. Must read!

Not nearly as good as the first book in the series.

The storyline was ok, but I didn't like the performance at all! His voice was weak and shaky at times. I didn't care for the different character voices either. I don't know if I'm going to purchase another book.

Any additional comments?

The music came at weird times & wasn't necessary - it added nothing to the story. I found myself rolling my eyes quite a few times because of how arrogant the main character is. Got kinda tired of listening to how great, good looking & rich he is. It got old fast.

Come on

The evil twin is too much . Too predictable. Either kill him off or send him to the chair but spare us another get away with it evil twin.Reader was not at all good, felt last key he did not like the story either.

Great listen for a long drive !!

I purchased this book to assist in a 24 hour drive to Colorado, It kept me awake!!
