The Professor

De: Cathy Perkins

Narrado por: Dina Pearlman

The Professor presses his palm against her flank, the warmth of her blood, hotter than her skin. Hot, like the life force that he has claimed. The power over life and death is the ultimate thrill.

Someone is murdering women on college campuses. Agent Mick O'Shaughnessy's mission is simple: stop the killer. Following every lead, he meets Meg, the faculty advisor for one of the victims, who can help him track the killer through her campus connections.

Meg Connelly is focused on getting her master's degree to show her estranged family she doesn't need anybody's help to succeed. There's something about Mick she can't resist, but the last time she let someone get close to her, it cost her everything.

As the investigation heats up, so does their relationship. But Mick's interest in Meg doesn't just endanger her heart—it puts her in the sights of the killer.

Once he gets her alone, he can take all the time he needs....

Disappointing

What disappointed you about The Professor?

While the story line was good, the author did not do a good job with the story ending. To me she left a lot unsaid, no real conclusion to some of the thing that happened

What do you think your next listen will be?

no sure

Would you be willing to try another one of Dina Pearlman’s performances?

maybe

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

disappointment

Any additional comments?

I like books that have a good balance of both suspense and romance, this book did not really concentrate on the romance much, just a lot of insecurity from the heroin (she was week) and begging from the hero (he was not alpha enough).

Great new author!

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

Very good mystery.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Southern mystery...

Any additional comments?

I think Ms. Perkins will continue to intrigue readers. Excited for the next book!

Terrific debut

Ms Perkins created an engaging story that keeps the reader guessing what will happen next. The murderer is smart and creepy...a great villian to counter the hero cop. Mick is the perfect alpha male, tempered by intelligence, patience and understanding. Meg is driven to succeed, but has learned to hide her vulnerability behind a mask of polite detachment.
These two characters not only complement each other, they create enough sensual tension to ignite the pages. I screamed warnings, cheered for, and sighed with relief as Meg and Mick struggled to overcome and survive every obstacle thrown at them.
In summary, "The Professor" really pulls you in. I thoroughly enjoyed! If you like novels by Nora Roberts, Linda Howard, and Sandra Brown, you will undoubtedly enjoy The Professor, too.

This is a great book

She is great she get the characters.

The professor has a member...

Would you try another book from Cathy Perkins and/or Dina Pearlman?

No, I don't think so. Dina Pearlman is a good reader and I would try something she's narrating by another author.

Would you ever listen to anything by Cathy Perkins again?

Probably not.

What does Dina Pearlman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She has a clear, nuanced voice that conveys emotional range.

What character would you cut from The Professor?

The professor's member! I am not a prude but this little character had an enormous role. The author has lovingly described all of his throbbing, trembling, tumescence, his turgid tumidity and his tingling thumps of titillation.

Any additional comments?

At points, this narrative simply became ludicrous and I almost enjoyed its crazy predictability and cliches. But it's too juvenile to please a quasi-serious listener.
