Unethical is a MEDIUM GRAY dark romance novella standalone.

It's only unethical if we get caught

Maxim

I see her jotting down notes in her little notebook. Psychopath. Deranged. No empathy to be found. She doesn't yet understand just how right she is, but she will.

I'm obsessed with her. She consumes my every waking thought. The problem is, she's my therapist.

Can she break through to me, or will I end up breaking her?

Tropes:
Age gap
Therapist x Convict
Forced Proximity
Stalker
Unhinged MMC

The female voice was like listening to people learning to read. Even speeding it up was awful. It lacked chemistry and passion in the narration. I wish I would’ve just read the book because the story was good.

Great story line terrible narrators

So I feel like for a book like this to be successful, it can’t be a short read. There’s too much dark and not enough “redemption” (or what redemption there is feels really hard to believe). This happened for me. I just didn’t buy any kind of love story and instead felt myself asking if the doctor needs therapy. Gave major Joker/Harley Quinn vibes (if they both didn’t go full psycho). Audio note: very well done! Enjoyed both narrators greatly.

Not my fave

If it has Lauren Biel's name on it, I'm reading/listening to it! I questioned my own sanity too many times to count and I regret nothing.

If you're a fan, you already know what you're in for with this one. If you're new, make sure and check the TW.

Unhinged and Unethical

I really liked the idea of the therapist/convict dynamic. But the characters and story line fell flat. Like it was mimicking scenes from other popular dark romance and not coming close to the quality of that writing. NGL... kind of felt like 3 popular books were given to an AI model and told to write a book.
Narration was meh. Editing was obviously done to make it longer. Unnecessarily long pauses made me think something was wrong with my device.

Interesting Concept, Flat Execution
