Publisher's summary

Seven deadly sins. Seven souls that must be saved. One more no-holds-barred battle between Jim Heron, a fallen angel with a hardened heart, and a demon with everything to lose.

Isaac Rothe is a black-ops soldier with a dark past and a grim future. The target of an assassin, he finds himself behind bars, his fate in the hands of his gorgeous public defender, Grier Childe. His hot attraction to her is a totally wrong-place-wrong-time kind of thing - and that’s before Jim Heron tells him his soul is in danger. Caught up in a wicked game with the demon who shadows Jim, Isaac must decide whether the soldier in him can believe that true love is the ultimate weapon against evil....

Crave: A very good listen.

I very much enjoyed Crave. It had lots of humorous moments, sad, and climatic moments more so than its predecessor Covent which I enjoyed, but not nearly as much as Crave. If this means that the book series will be getting better as the stories progress then this will be another very successful series for J.R. Ward. I absolutely love each and every one of the books in the BDB (Black Dagger Brother series) If you have not read or listen to the BDB series then your missing out! (worse maybe even depriving yourself!)

Great Listen

This narrator is Dynamite! I read the first one, Covet, and liked it, but I listened to Crave and loved it.

I crave Crave!

Crave was awesome. I liked it better then Covet, which was excellent! Isaac was adorable, hard and totally alpha. Grier was the perfect match for him. Of course, Jim is really shaping into a super angel. I am eager for the next 5 souls.

Where does Crave rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Crave is as good as all my other audiobooks. Can't really pick The Best, they are all great.

What other book might you compare Crave to and why?

I have most all of of J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood and all of her Fallen Angels in audio.

What about Eric G. Dove’s performance did you like?

His performance was good, very expressive.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No, I listen to them in my car mostly or cleaning house. I've got all the paperback books, too.

too much narration of what characters are thinking

What did you like best about Crave? What did you like least?

some interesting characters and story line..... but the tedious and repetitive narration about what is going on in the heads of the main characters made me want to scream.
More action was required by the story as a whole

Would you ever listen to anything by J. R. Ward again?

possibly

very entertaining

I'm not sure why there have been negative reviews of Eric Dove. I think he does a great job with the different voices.
If you liked the first in this series, you'll not be disappointed in this one. The action continues! Davina is bad, bad, bad.
Looking forward to the next in the series!

You always win with her books!

I love her books as always and the narrator and I could not put it down, or stop listening.

Very good

I'm not a fan of the sappy girly romances...this is a perfect example of a manly (if that is possible) romance. The narrator is wonderful as well. When is the next one coming out????!!!!

Another Fabulous JR Ward Series!

Anyone who loves JR Ward's BDB series will also fall for these angels. I think this one might be even better than the first.

A Wicked Angel, You'll Love

Although this is not the typical novel that I nomally read, I decided to check out "Covet", the first novel during a sale. I tend to read more romance and suspense novels, but I'm a fan of the TV show SuperNatural, so the subject of the Fallen Angel, Jim, trying to save seven souls for good over evil interested me. I did not anticipate the graphic nature of the novels since it's not my normal read, but I was so caught up in the exitement of the characters and Jim's battle with trying to lead his "soul" on the right path while keeping them safe from demons, that the graphic nature did not bother me. Don't think that because the book is about Angels that it will be G rated and about God. If that is what you are expecting, you will get the shock of your life. Crave is the second chapter for Jim, trying to save the 2nd of his 7th soul. Both Covet and Crave are R rated, with graphic language, sexual content and violence. Which is why I loved the characters to much, because they are so real. Jim, the Fallen Angel, and his two buddies Add and Eddie, are Warriors sent from haven to fight for the souls of seven people that will decide the fate of the world. Free will let's them decide to choose good or evil, but only Jim has been given the power to persuade them on which path to take. He has the past to satify Hell, but the heart to satisfy Heaven. Both novels make you fall in love with this wicked Angel, that keeps showing bit by bit why he is the Chosen One. Eric Dove as the narrator is PERFECT and his voice gives just the right tone to each character so you feel every emotion. I can not wait for the next chapter of Jim's adventure. If you are daring... neither can you.
