About this listen

Wanted is a DARK GRAY romance novella with high spice and low plot. This home invasion story will leave you questioning if you should leave your door open at night.

I'm wanted.

On the lam, running from the law and my mistakes. The house tucked into the trees seems safe—an excellent place to hide out.

Once inside, I find something unexpected. A nurse that can do more than heal my wounds. But the longer I'm awake, the more reality starts to blur, and I can't tell what's real and what's not anymore.

Plagued by ill fantasies and temptation, I try to keep her safe from me. It works until the lines between us also begin to blur.

Vanessa, like her home, will never be the same once I get inside.

Wanted is a dark, spicy novella with a plethora of content advisories. It’s part of Lauren Biel's “after dark” collection, and warnings on LaurenBiel.com should be taken seriously.

delicious depravity

I know without a doubt when I am in the mood for dark and unhinged lauren is the first author I think of.
this one wasn't any different. the way she finds the tiniest miniscule way to add humanity back into the I humane male leads is an art.
the narrators were perfection

Short but really gripping

I really liked this one. Duet narration but only from the male POV. I actually wouldn’t have minded if this one was a bit longer. Pulls you in from the start and keeps you intrigued all the way through.

A Dark, Gripping, Raw, unflinching Novella

Lauren Biel really did an incredible job making us feel for the villain, even though his actions were so dark. The way she delved into the haze of drugs and how it affects someone’s behavior was both chilling and fascinating. It gave such a raw, honest look at the fight between good and evil.

The entire story is told from his POV, and honestly, I think that made it even more intense and gripping. She didn’t shy away from the horrors of addiction and its control over people, which made it all feel so real and unsettling. But of course, there’s a HEA at the end!

If you like dark, twisted stories that are quick but hit hard, this one’s definitely worth checking out. It’s the perfect read for anyone who enjoys a good, deranged tale.

Loved it

I’m a true crime and dark romance junkie so I loved this. Truthfully, I wish the story had been a full novel instead of a novella so we could’ve gotten more backstory on Cole, what happened that lead up to his wife’s affair, where him and Vanessa ended up after he came back. If it had been a full novel, I still would’ve wanted the story from predominantly Cole’s POV. It’s hard to find books that are primarily from the MMCs POV and those are my favorite for the most part. I’m glad Lauren wrote this with very little from Vanessa because I’m a dark story like this, I feel like she would’ve come across whiny and repetitive which would’ve ruined the story for me.

Overall, great story. If you like dark romance with the MMC being a fked up man, highly recommend.

Vanessa (Little Girl) and Cole

Pretty good short story about Cole breaking into Vanessa's home after he commits murder. He had it rough when he comes home and catches his wife in the middle of the act with another man. He spirals out of control and becomes addicted to drugs. As much as I hate drugs, for some reason, it is easy to root for Cole. It is a shame the book was not a little longer so we find out how things worked out for them down the road. Kayden Lukakis and Angelina Rocca did a very good job with the narration.

Spicy short listen

I loved this spicy short listen. It was just what I was looking for. I loved the story line and the characters. The narrators were great too. I do wish the epilogue gave more insight to the future. I want to know if Cole got his life back together.

Wow.

So much packed into a small story. Would have loved more of a life after but it was still captivating.

Engaging story despite being a novella

I am surprised how Lauren was able to include so much depth in this novella. It worked really well and I liked the book a lot! I think the narrators were a great duo for these characters. They did an amazing job with the emotions of the MCs.

Great Dark Romance

I listened to this audiobook in 1 go. The narrators did a fantastic job and I thought they performed their roles well. I loved the book. I have been meaning to make time to read Lauren Biel books and I wish I had made time sooner. This dark romance did not disappoint.
