You’re either the hunter or the hunted. The lion or the lamb. Bound on an altar. Belts of deceit. Tangerine skies. Taunted by time. Scorch. Stack. Salt.

Gage

She’s my nightmare. My weakness. My Wicked. Ainsley Morelli was everything I craved, the breath in my lungs, my only home. But she sent me to die, and threw dirt on my grave. That was another life. When she had the upper hand. In this one, I’m the lead enforcer for KORT. And she’s on the run and in my backyard. I’ve waited years to ruin her and her family. Her smoking gun might do it for me. No need to rush. I’ve always enjoyed playing with my prey.

Ainsley

My life as a Morelli has been full of duplicities. Betrayal traded for loyalty. Becoming a fugitive for freedom. And Gage Porter was at the center of every unraveling thread. Only he wasn’t Gage then. And he didn’t survive—or so I thought. Until a man three times the size of the boy with amber eyes pins me to a wall in the shelter where I took refuge. That tracks. I sought protection and became a prisoner. But times are changing. In this story, the burnt offering rises to be the butcher. Freed by the very hands that counted my fleeting breaths. Until the ticking stops. Family means sacrifice.

This is book four in The KORT Series. It’s best to start with book one, BURNING IVY.

Significant character growth, world building, and events occur in the first three novels, so books should be listened to in order for the best experience. What to expect:

Mafia/Secret Society

Jealous/Possessive hero

Action/Suspense

Second Chance

Enemies to Lovers

Forced proximity

Trauma healing

Obsessed MMC Found family

Touch her and unalive

Morally Gray MMC and FMC

This was an AMAZING series! The writing was impeccable and the stories weaved together seamlessly. The narration choices were superb and I wish there was more. I knew Gage and Ainsley's storey was going to be my fave AND IT WAS! They were all amazing. I can't say more for fear of spoilers. My opinion is coming from a decades-long listener and reader of the romance genre. Highly recommend! Totally worth the credit/cost. Can't wait to see (or hear?) what comes next for Ms Hynes. ALL THE STARS for this series. Thank you for your words Brandy Hynes

EPIC!

Charring Bones is the fourth and final book in the KORT series. The books in this series are best read in order, as each one contains significant world-building and character development. I can't even begin to explain how much I loved this book. I truly didn't know what to expect from Gage, but the way this man came in and completely stole my heart has me GAGGED. I seriously could not put this book down. Gage is the ultimate broody, closed-off guy with a soft side he tries (and fails) to hide. Ainsley is a fiery and fearless badass who gives Gage hell in the best way. She turns his life completely upside down, and I loved every second of it. These two together? I can't even handle it! Their chemistry was electric, and their banter was so ridiculously good. The tension was thick, and the enemies-to-lovers dynamic between these two was strong.

I love that these characters have so much depth. Ainsley and Gage have complicated pasts, and I loved watching them heal. They had both been through a lot, and it wasn't easy to work it all out, but they fought hard for happiness. I love the KORT crew so much! The found family element in this series is top tier, and I love how they all will do absolutely anything to protect each other. Brandy's writing is phenomenal and has kept me on my toes with unpredictable twists and turns. I’m so sad this series is over, but Charring Bones was the perfect way to wrap it up. I cannot wait for the Noire Brothers! If you’re into dark romance stories with morally grey characters, intense emotions, and a found family that will steal your heart, this series is a must-read.

Narration:
Samantha Brentmoor and Jacob Morgan perform this audiobook in duet-style narration, and I can't imagine anyone else as Ainsley and Gage. Samantha and Jacob ARE Ainsley and Gage. They brought all the delicious tension, heartbreak, and chemistry between the characters to life so well. Charring Bones is a very emotional story, and Samantha and Jacob's performances made me FEEL everything. This was an unforgettable immersive listening experience! I highly recommend reading and listening to this entire series in tandem.

Phenomenal Story!

That was really good. It’s not an ending though. It was very much open ended. Who the heck was on the phone? What a cliffhanger.

Who was on the phone???

Jacob Morgan and Samantha Brentmoor were phenomenal in this duet narration audiobook.
Gage’s character goes through a wide array of emotions and he was able to portray them all perfectly along with the other male characters he voiced. And Samantha Brentmoor really was able to make you feel everything Ainsley was feeling from being determined and strong to look out for herself down to the moments she was feeling the most vulnerable. This audiobook was so easy to listen to and I absolutely loved these two for this audiobook.

What a way to end a series. I’ve been so excited for Gage’s story and it was so unexpected. I did not see Gage and Ainsley having a second chance romance coming. This one is an emotional rollercoaster and takes you for quite the ride.

Ainsley knew Gage before he was erased and that really added a new aspect to the series. Seeing how they were supposed to not have contact with anyone from before they were erased. When they met again was by chance. I loved the push and pull between these two. Both were so strong willed and independent. She had something to prove even if some of it was only to herself. The growth both Gage and Ainsley made in this book

Both were hurt by the other for different reasons but even with that the chemistry was off the charts even when they didn’t want it to be. This book like the others in the series are plot heavy but the spice is just right for the story.

The ending of this really gave some good closure to the whole series not just this book. Getting to see where all the couples were when it ended and how they all interacted being in this unconventional family they made was the best. It has me so excited for the next series which will have ties to this series I think.

Duet Narration - Jacob Morgan & Samantha Brentmoor
Two of the most amazing narrators. So good!!

This is book #4 in the KORT series

Gage “big guy” finally gets his story and a second chance with the woman he thought he lost.

The FMC is a badass strong women she is a survivor if nothing else.

This was an amazing listen and conclusion to the story. I still think there could be more… perhaps Brandy will give us a spin off series?!?!? That would be amazing!

Soooo good!

Brandy Hynes created an amazing world for these characters. I loved Gage and Ainsley’s story of sacrifice and finding love again. This series has been absolutely phenomenal and one that I have recommended numerous times. Brandy has a way of explaining things in such detail but never going too far that it’s monotonous. I suggest starting from the first book in the KORT series, you won’t be disappointed.

Great finish to the series

This series literally was top series I’ve ever listened to!!

GAGE && AINSLEY

Samantha Brentmoor and Jacob Morgan brought down the house and so much more with this audio. So authentically emotional from start to finish. The way these two dig in deep into their roles as Gage and Ainsley is nothing short of spectacular. When I saw the reveal that these two were the narrators I literally squealed for joy at work! Lol Samantha’s voice is like coming home to a summer breeze during the day and like fine wine in the evening by a raging fire. Jacob’s voice is a perfect bend of rough and tough, purse sensual, and humerous joy! The chemistry and spiciness between these two is a combination of a live wire and a slow burning chill that makes your toes curl! This series is my Roman Empire, but this story really sealed the deal!

Book Review;

What a way to end the series in the best way possible. Gage is everything and more. Morally Grey/Big Teddy Bear! He really does give a whole new meaning to Independence Day/Die Hard vibes! Ainsley is definitely the match for Gage and the spark that lives on. I fell so in love with these two and had the roller coaster heart wrenching ride of my life! This book sealed the deal to become my Roman Empire forever!

Roman Empire!!!
