The carnival rolled into town, bringing an obsession so powerful that it threatened to unravel my entire existence.

Seeking an escape from my monotonous life in Willow Creek, I eagerly stepped into the carnival's vibrant chaos, unaware that everything was about to change. I was simply chasing a thrill, never expecting to stumble into the arms of Lars—a captivating mechanic shrouded in mystery.

But a dark underworld of secrets and shadows lurks beneath the carnival's dazzling facade. The deeper I fall into Lars's enigmatic world, the more I realize that love can be as intoxicating as it is dangerous. Lars teeters on the edge between passion and obsession, and our connection threatens to overwhelm us.

With each reckless adventure, I'm torn between the exhilarating allure of his world and the terrifying fear of losing my own. As our relationship intensifies, I'm forced to confront a haunting question: can love survive amidst the chaos, or will I be lost forever in his darkness?

Step right up, if you dare, because this thrilling ride is about to begin.

Carnival Obsession is a dark romance novella with heavy subjects that some listeners may find triggering. There's a full list of the trigger warnings on my website. This story has no cliffhanger and ends with a HEA.

This is a fetish rape fantasy ~ love story between our two sensational lead characters, LARS and Alice. Beautifully written by the one and only Selena Winters. I would like to say thank you to Selena for her hard work on this unique topic. Can't be easy to put a book together without offending people. Even though I'm not into stalker romance books, I decided to try your series out because I am a huge fan of the carnival thrillers and horror movies. You eloquently put everything together in a beautiful package with a pretty bow on the top so it gave this fetish life a easy relaxed view from the outside to someone like me who is not in that world.

Let's talk about characters. LARS is a bit more laid-back in character comparing him to CADE from the first book. I really did like LARS character and was rooting for him and Alice. The love of his life. At first, I was a bit shocked when listening to both of the books part one and two because I am not into this world of fetish however, understanding that this is for entertainment purposes, I went with the flow and got into the characters minds.
I felt a bit of compassion for LARS and all that he had gone through in his very difficult life.

ALICE is a very intelligent woman and has a good job. However, her life seems to be a bit mundane and unsatisfied until she meets LARS. Sparks fly and caution is thrown to the wind. If you are in the market for a heart throbbing vein pumping, white knuckle ride, intense romance, and unique fetish scenes (that Ive never experienced )... This is your book! Look no further amigas!

I could feel the passion and compassion between LARS and Alice I was rooting for both of them to find their happily ever after. And complete each other as friends lovers and soulmates. The stars aligned with these two met and overall, I must say I enjoyed the book. Thank you, Selena for your creative and effervescent writing. Bravo to Heather and Troy our sensational narrator. You're beautiful words brought the characters to life! AHHH!

Since I'm intrigued, I am going on to book 3.....book-sha-ka-la-ka! Thank you all for making my nights QUE RICO!!

The heroine: Alice - she works in an attorney’s office, for a man who is condescending and entitled. She needs the job but hates it and her boss. One evening when a carnival comes to town, she goes with her friend Lily. After riding on the Tilt-a-Whirl, she sees a handsome, muscular, tattooed god. He asks her out the next night and she agrees to meet him. Though she ends up standing him up when Lily has a stalker that broke into her apartment.

The Hero: Lars - he is a worker at a traveling carnival. He is good friends with Cade from Carnival Nightmare. Lars works on the rides, fixing and maintaining them. He also works closely with Ty, the owner with their illegal side hustle and he loves the rush. There are hidden compartments in many of the trailers, and they make pickups and deliveries all over the country, doing it right under the noses of the local authorities and nobody suspects a thing.

The story: Lars isn’t happy when Alice stands him up. He finds out where she lives and sees that she is just watching a movie with her friend. He is determined to make her pay for playing him. The following day, he “accidentally” bumps into her and they make another date for that evening. Alice likes the mystery and danger that surround him, so she plans on finding out. Later while at work, she gets an envelope from an anonymous man which holds a photograph of her and Lily last night, taken through the window. She thinks it might have been from Lars and is a bit worried, but she doesn’t plan on getting scared off.

This book gets steamy pretty quickly and like the first book in the series, Lars doesn’t care too much about following social norms. He inserts himself into her life and they spend time together and their chemistry is sizzling hot. There are a few triggers, so beware, but I like dark romance, and I liked these characters.

The audiobook was told in multiple points of view and narrated via duet narration by Troy Duran and Heather Johns. Heather has a nice, clear voice and she sounds the right age for Alice. Troy Duran is one of my favorite male narrators. He has a deep, sexy voice which is perfect for Lars. Overall, the narration was extremely good.

Carny Anti-hero!

I only got this book bc I needed something to listen to while doing some work, this was a bit much, I hated the mmc, he was too otp and possessive, the fmc was too much of a pushover and let the mmc run over her and push her around and I really didn't like that, had to DNF
