X's and O's

De: Elle Thorpe

Narrado por: Kelsey Navarro Foster, Sean Crisden, Gregory Salinas, Theo Sinclair

One minute I’m cleaning toilets for minimum wage.

The next, I’m waking up from a drug-induced nap with a monster staring down at me.

Kidnapped and seconds from death, I think I’m done for.

Until masked men burst in, murder my attacker, and turn my world upside down.

They call themselves Murder Squad.

A secret brotherhood of broken men who only kill the worst of the worst.

And one of them thinks I’m his wife.

X is unhinged, obsessed, and deadly. A psychopath who hides behind bad jokes and bloodstained fingers.

Whip’s older, grumpy, and used to women paying him to worship them. But when he finds out I’m a virgin, he can’t keep his hands off my plus-size curves.

And Levi? One year of handwritten letters was all it took to fall in love with a man I’d never met. My prison pen pal turned killer, fighting his darkness for a second chance.

But they aren’t the only psychopaths in Saint View.

Someone’s playing a twisted game, leaving rhyming threats and promising to end us all if we don’t stop them first.

With every lie we uncover, every secret we expose, the danger mounts.

Until there’s only one thing we know for sure.

There’s a killer out there.

And this time, he’s hunting us.

X’s and O’s is a dark rom com. It’s an adult, why choose romance, meaning the main character has more than one love interest. You can expect a plus size, tall heroine, psycho heroes, a murder mystery, and a spicy club. This book contains romantic suspense and triggering themes. It is the first book in an ongoing trilogy.

I mean this with the UTMOST respect....

...but DAAAAYMN! That was one serious DOUCHE CANOE of a cliff hanger you just b1tch slapped me with girl!!!
I might have called you an a$$hole when it happened...but only because I was LITERALLY sitting on the edge of my seat, 100% FULLY FREAKING INVESTED in the story!!
It was seriously like getting slapped with a cold fish.
I had to blink a couple of times, just to make certain you were reeeally being serious and cutting it off RIGHT THERE....!!!!!😂 😂 😂
Well Done You Ms. Thorpe. You had me by the neck and I was there for it.
An outstandingly exceptional jib

Amazing

in true Elle fashion this book is amazing! It made me LOL so may times! X is quite the character!!!

Amazing!!

I laughed SO hard during this book!!!! The comedy and the spicy scenes were incredible!! Literally can't wait to listen to the other two books whenever they come out!!

Engaging and funny

I loved this book! The narration was perfect, the story funny, sometimes laugh out loud funny, the characters perfectly developed. A definite must read (listen)

the male characters, the narration, the story. are greate

love the male characters. they are sweet and funny and lovely, but my God I got very frustrated with the main character. her insecurities are selfish and self absorbed so much that she's judgmental and rude to the male characters (Levi specifically) without and before they can explain their actions and she never apologizes for her behavior. she never considered the point of view of others or puts her in their shoes. she has very little empathy if she had assumed the worst about what people think of her already.

So good!!!

OMG…X!!! I love this story so much!! The voice actors are amazing as usual!!

Vince is back!

Vince is my favorite character and I love that X is a mini version with ADHD

can't wait for book two

another great one from Elle Thorpe. I can't wait until the second book comes out.

Perfect Cliff Hanger

Everything about this was sooo good! I’m just mad I have to wait for the other books!

Amazing story but ends on a cliffhanger 😮

Well written story with very good narrators. Can't wait for the next book 📖 definitely recommend. All characters are believable and the story has definitely spicy 🔥 moments and laughter 😂
Love X but Levi is definitely biker hot and steamy 😉 can't say more and it would then spoil it for others ❣️
