About this listen

Addison Godwin is a nonglam - one of the one in 10,000 humans who is immune to vampire glamour and mind tricks. Her gift enables her to work as an auditor, enforcing the law that vampires and humans keep their distance from each other except in a purely nonphysical way. The law is necessary because when a vampire tries to have sex with a human, their bloodlust combines with their sexual appetite, and the result looks like roadkill.

Alec Corbin is a four-star master vampire with piercing blue eyes and intentions to get Addison into his bed. He promises he can be gentle, but Addison has seen way too many vamp/human crime scenes to go for that. She has no interest in the six-foot-four hunk of sexy vampire man candy, even if he is supernaturally hot.

But just because she audits (and sometimes executes) vampires for a living doesn't mean she hates them all. Her best friend, Taylor, was turned against her will. Now living as a slave to one of the crueler master vamps in town, she leads a miserable existence, and Addison is helpless to save her within the confines of the law.

Things come to a head when the vampire inquisitor comes to town, and Taylor is given to him as a sex slave. When Addison sees her best friend tortured, beaten, and burned with silver, she knows she has to do something - even if it means teaming up with Corbin and paying the crimson debt.

Contains mature themes.

Enjoyable but not Awesome

Contrary to the rave reviews, this book was not action packed or very exciting. It took a while for the storyline to develop but eventually was a fairly, if not slow, enjoyable book. It was decent enough to continue listening, but not "edge of your seat" excitement. The main characters were likeable and nice people, that's probably what kept me listening.
Most likely won't bother with next book in series.
Waiting for the book to be on sale is a better bet; over priced for quality of story.

Talk about walking a chalk line

I really enjoy Evangeline Anderson’s imagination. Her world of vampires and humans, acknowledgement with legal documentation (like a bungy ride) and auditors is brilliant. Then to add an auditor who has the hots for a vampire 🧛‍♂️ really set the scene for me to shout at Addison shut ur big mouth”, don’t anger the angry beast. An the submissive roomie? Anyhoo, great job as always Mackenzie

How Can She Be So Stupid?

Chapter after chapter, the main character talks to herself about how dangerous these vampires are and then completely disregards any warnings, rules, customs, or common sense. She constantly insults them and can't keep her mouth shut to save her life, quite literally. This would be fine for one dramatic and emotional moment or early on in the story before she knew better, but it happens constantly, cover to cover, over and over again. At some point, I'd hoped her big fat mouth got her killed like it should have 10 times over. The book is generally well written with a decent plot and the relationship is steamy, it's unfortunate it turns a good character into a biligererant bimbo. Great narrating too!

There were some good parts

Over all the story was ok, and some of the sex scenes were well written and compelling. This book was hard to get through because one of the main Character's was Very hard to like. The Heroine was constantly pushing the Hero away to the point of being just plain stupid and I wish she was going to get killed off just to end it. Which was a shame as the book had real potential. I should have listened to some of the other reviews. The little clip audible gives you to listen to hooked me, but when you get more in depth this one just falls short for me. Just not my cup of tea, plus the way women are treated in the book could be disturbing for many women that have gone through abuse.

Good Story

The story line is great! I'm definitely going to read the next book. I just wish the lead female character wasnt so annoying at some points in her book. I feel like stupidity was being portrayed as bravery and it got really annoying at certain points

Wow, What a Great Story and Performance!

This was a well rounded story with action, suspense, humor, and steamy hot scenes. I find myself laughing out loud and blushing.

The plot was great. Addison needs help freeing her best friend, Taylor, from her cruel vampire master so she turns to the one person she knows she should stay away from but she knows he's the only vampire who can help her save her friend. Corbin comes up with an interesting plot to save Taylor but Addison will have to play along.

I loved how this story ends and it lays the foundation for the next story in the series.

This was the first story I've listen to that was narrated by Mackenzie Cartwright and I thought she did a wonderful job!

This story is so worth the credit and time!

Steamy Romance - Anoying Female Lead

Lived the story line and the narration kept me interested. A very steamy hot ready. The only downside is the Anoying personality of the main character she fought off the relationship with the vampire I felt for to long.

Great story with humor and sex

There is a good storyline pulled together with sexy situations. You end up caring for all the characters, making you want to read the rest of the series.
