Soul Songs - Bad Boy Series: Audiobook 2

Jake Stryker is the bad boy of country music. Tall, dark, and ruggedly handsome, he has the reputation of a party animal and enjoys all the perks of celebrity. His idyllic lifestyle was rocked by the news of his sister's death at the hands of her husband, Bobby. Jake took responsibility of his sister's twins, whilst Bobby was sent to jail.

Marty Donahue makes her living painting murals for people. She lives and travels in a 30-year-old RV accompanied by her one-eyed old cat Gruff. She loves her carefree life, traveling around the country, creating unique murals for all types of people.

When Marty was told her next job was for Jake Stryker, her initial response was "no." She wasn't crazy about men, and she especially disliked musicians, due to her father's mistreatment of her mother. If it hadn't been for the sad tale of the 4-year-old twins, she would have never taken it on.

Marty committed to doing not one, but two murals at the home of Jake Stryker. She wanted to help the kids, but she wasn't prepared to become another notch on the bedpost for the sexy superstar.

The next few weeks were filled with painting, kids, and Jake. She doesn't want to get close to him, she knows he's bad news, but she can't keep fighting the chemistry that's brewing between them.

Then they get the sickening news: Bobby has escaped from the jail where he was being held for trial. Word is that he's headed to Tennessee to get his kids back.

Will Marty and Jake be able to work together to save the kids from their maniacal father? And will they be able to save themselves from their attraction to each other?

Soul Songs

Soul Songs is a pretty good book. It's a quick listen with no real angst to speak of. There are minor spikes of tension in some scenes but they resolve quickly. The narrator does a pretty good job but the accents come and go a bit. It's not super noticeable so overall not a problem. My overall rating is a 4 because while there's certainly nothing bad about the book at all, it also wasn't something that kept me glued to my headphones. A good story though!

One Major Flaw!

Let me say first that I love Simone Carter's stories. I really enjoy how she creates a wonderful tale in a short amount of time. This story was wonderful before and after Chapter 5 where the MC vividly describes her rape. I do not understand why author's think they have to tell every detail of such an atrocious act. Generalities would suffice or just a simple statement that a character has gone through such a horrible ordeal would be fine. It's this chapter of why this story has three stars instead of five. I loved it except for that particular detail but it's a big detail! I have stopped watching movies and the like due to a rape scene being played out, to never finish it. The narration was excellently done by Lissa Blackwell, as usual. I love how she brings the story to life, giving the characters their own voices and emotions.

The kids are adorable and Jake's an awesome guy. Marty tries to fight her feelings but Jake's just too adorable....there's bad weather & a bad guy to make it more interesting.
