When Edward Cullen and Bella Swan met in Twilight, an iconic love story was born. But until now, fans have heard only Bella's side of the story. At last, listeners can experience Edward's version in the long-awaited companion novel, Midnight Sun. This unforgettable tale as told through Edward's eyes takes on a new and decidedly dark twist. Meeting Bella is both the most unnerving and intriguing event he has experienced in all his years as a vampire.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 13,660
LAPD cop Scott James is not doing so well, not since a shocking nighttime assault by unidentified men killed his partner, Stephanie, nearly killed him, and left him enraged, ashamed, and ready to explode. He is unfit for duty - until he meets his new partner. Maggie is not doing so well, either. The German shepherd survived three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan sniffing explosives before she lost her handler to an IED and sniper attack, and her PTSD is as bad as Scott’s. They are each other’s last chance.

Definitely not for me
Reviewed: 01-13-19
I gave the story 3 stars because I actually don't know what's going on with it so I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. The performance is below grade in my opinion and I feel like someone is reading it to me rather than telling me a story. To be honest, I chose this book because it had a Scottish or Irish narrator (at least that was my assumption) and I love the accent of both and I love crime novels. Not a good reason to pick a book, I know, and I did consider the reviews as well. I realize I'm not going to love every book I read but this one was just hard to stick with for me.

For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand.

Slow starter
Reviewed: 12-20-18
I really want to give this five stars but I wouldn't be honest if I did. The sound quality was too soft and low; I had to turn my iPod up all the way. The sound improved as it went along. The narrator, in my humble opinion, was not a good fit and I struggled to stay with it until Tate came into the picture. That's where things started piquing my interest and by the end, and I do mean the last three hours, I was totally involved.
The story hit home with me in unexpected ways and I'm so glad I stayed with it. I hope someone makes a movie from this story so others can see the world from a different perspective and hopefully learn something.

The world of Dematr had been locked unchanging for centuries by the Great Guilds, most people living in a world of oil lamps, crossbows, and horse cavalry, the Mechanics reserving to themselves the technology for steam locomotives, rifles, and far-talkers while the Mages treated all others as if they were nothing - until Master Mechanic Mari, dragon slayer and pirate queen, and Master of Mages Alain raised the army of the new day to free their world.

Terrible performance
Reviewed: 08-23-18
I bought this book based on the reviews and its cover. Unfortunately, I can't get past the performance of the narrator to even get an idea of what the story is all about. Personally, I prefer to hear a female narrator if the person in the book is female, but still, this person's voice and intonation doesn't do the story justice. I would probably give the story more stars but I just can't listen to it long enough to form an opinion.

Story4 out of 5 stars 12,601
In a future so real and near it might be now, something happens when women go to sleep: They become shrouded in a cocoon-like gauze. If they are awakened, if the gauze wrapping their bodies is disturbed or violated, the women become feral and spectacularly violent; and while they sleep they go to another place.... The men of our world are abandoned, left to their increasingly primal devices. One woman, however, the mysterious Evie, is immune to the blessing or curse of the sleeping disease.
