Well written and tasteful expectations

Story line was enjoyable and different. Sexy and hot with just enough anticipation without over doing it. Hats off to the author. ☺

Deadly sins at work.

Although the men in this book have a caveman mentality, the story will suck you in. But since they are suppose to have been around awhile, that is to be expected. There are many bad reviews about the narrator, which is surprising to me because I enjoyed listening to him. My day at work went by fast while listening that is a measure of how good audios are to me. Also good by Gena Showalter is Catch a Mate the book is hilarious although I have not listen to it yet, only read it.

Big thumbs up!

I have the physical book amd have read it multiple times. I don't read as much, bit I listen quite often. So, I just had to get my favorite book series. Maddox is my favorite. There is something about having a guy erupt into violence of someone were to look at his woman the wrong way that I just find so damn sexy.

great introduction to audio

i loved every minute.. could've have been more thrilled to find an author that has stories i can dive in and enjoy.. Thank you

i was hooked

Would you listen to The Darkest Night again? Why?

i was hook on this book from the start. one you start reading there are today 9 more books to go so it will take some time

sexy.....

ok only listen to this series if you are NOT weak of heart....its hot sex & voilence all wrap up in a great storyline. All 4 books were great listening to, a little raw in some parts, but hey thats what headphones are for, I know I blushed a few time...and giggled ...enjoy..

loved this book

I must say I can not tell you how much i enjoyed this book.... I thought it would be a fun book but did not expect to not be able to put it down.. this book is steamy in places and it is not very realistic with the time line of falling in love but this is very fun and it was all that i would want it to be and will lesson to this book again I hope you enjoy this book I loved it,, it is very different than I had expected much better.....

It Put A Smile On My Face 😃

Bored, I went back through my library looking for something to listen to again and decided to listen this book again. It's just as good the second time around!

This story does remind me of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, a group of warriors living in a fortress fighting hunters who want to destroy them. These warriors have their own demons and personality but there is commdorie between them. I loved listening to each of their stories and fell in love with them all. It was too hard for me to chose a favorite!

I hope Gena writes another story soon. 📚

Had potential...

I think this story is really unique and really interesting. But dang, this story DRAGS! Why does the author need to remind us of the same thing in every chapter?! I get it! Maddox is violence!

Also, 13 hours and almost nothing happens. Like really only 3 hours tops of anything actually happens. The rest is just fluff about how horny or tortured the characters are.

That being said, I love these characters! I’d like to read more, but I’m hesitant. If the rest of the books drag like this, i’ll lose my freaking mind.

Also, the caveman talk when these characters are sick or banging was also really annoying.

I’m so conflicted...

🌻3 1/2 stars, overall!🌻

I stumbled across this series in the Escape package and was reminded that I had purchased this book, some time ago. However, I couldn’t remember why I had not progressed, through the series. I decided to listen to this book again and decide whether to continue with the series, since several books are included with the Escape package. I was reminded, rather quickly, what I didn’t like about the book.

First, I love paranormal romance but, Greek mythology isn’t my favorite sub-category. I prefer shifter stories and vampire-like stories. However, since I first listened to this, I have broadened my pallet, so the subject doesn’t bore me like it used to.

Second, there were many times, during the book, that inner dialogues went on and on and on, and I found myself getting frustrated and thinking, “Get on with it, already!” I also got bored with some of the drawn out explanations about the characters and background story. I know that this is this first book, in this series, and that all the characters needed to be introduced and the series needed to be “set up”, but I kinda felt like the explanations were written at a junior high level.

However, since I can try more of the series, without spending any credits, I’m going to move on to book two.
