About this listen

How toxic can love really be?

Meeting Aaron was the biggest mistake of my life. Not the addictions or my career choice, but the man I chose to marry. He wanted men to hurt me so he could ride in on the white horse to rescue me and take me away from the person he commanded to cause me all the pain in the first place. He was no hero. No white knight.

Aaron took it too far when he brought a man to our home who looked past the bruises and saw the broken woman beneath them. Ryan was fiercely protective from the moment he laid his eyes on me and received his assignment. His dark confidence was more intoxicating than any drug, and I found myself wanting more of it.

Even though he saved me, I was still fractured. Broken. Craving all the wrong things despite the right thing being in front of me. I didn't know how to love or be loved. I wasn't sure who I was when I was forced to be sober. I had to be taught my worth when I felt worthless.

But Aaron wasn't going to give up that easily. He wanted me back, and he would stop at nothing to get me. Ryan was strong and smart, though, and he made me feel safe. He was my savior. My hero. At least, that's what I hoped he'd remain.

Would Ryan be everything I ever needed?

Whoa nelly

Um, ok. I’m glad they were shorter novellas because that was kind of intense. My main critique is the male narrator. No matter which character he was voicing, they all sounded like old men. Not experienced old, just OLD old.

Extremely descriptive

This was a well written story. Almost like you can see a movie before your eyes.

loved it.

I loved the narrators. they were the perfect fit for this story. While it was dark and had non-consentual moments I enjoyed this book. Scarlett's downward spiral and then her growth was well-written.

Absolutely needed this!

Quick read! I did listen in one sitting. I was sucked in right from the very first chapter. Love how raw and uncut this book is.
Definitely recommend

5 stars for me

I finished this book last night, it was really good how it all played out. You really get to see the struggles of Scarlett and what Ryan is willing to do for her. Even though I've never listened to Dom or Teena before which is surprising with the number of books I have, they both did very well. I always enjoy when you get pulled in, not just a boring reading voice. Definitely recommend for those without triggers.

Not for the faint of heart

DESCRIPTION:
Scarlett is a paid escort per se, she ends up doing a job and meeting a guy named, Aaron. She ends up leaving the hotel after seeing Aaron bruised and battered. He shows up at her place a week later and makes her his. Three eyes later they get married and he is free to do whatever he wants with her and his friends. Scarlett ends up meeting Ryan one night during Aarons’s “parties”. Ryan ends up saving her from Aaron and steals her away.

MY THOUGHTS:
These two books are definitely dark romances. The stuff that happens in these books is kinda intense. This series is not for the faint of heart. I don’t have much thought on the series just because its main focus was on the dark part and there was no real storyline.

Abuse and Addiction

2.5 stars. This novella was a lot to handle, so check TWs. The FMC, Scarlett, goes through a lot of abuse and battles addiction. When she finally meets the MMC, Ryan, and is in a healthier relationship, she doesn't know how to deal with it. Together, they face her demons. I would've rated this higher if Aaron and his brother got what they deserved.
