Cuddly Murder Mystery if ever there was one!!

Reviewed: 03-19-24

These books are adorable, fun, engaging, and make you want to live in Bunburry! Alfie is such a wonderfully likable character, as are Marge and Liz! The story line develops surprisingly well and completely for such a short book, and you aren’t left feeling frustrated that something was missed. So glad I got the sets because otherwise I would have been frustrated they are over so quickly! (which is probably my only criticism).
The narration is very well done in my opinion and I enjoy listening to Nathaniel Parker. He does a splendid job of giving individual voices and personalities to each character!
Many thanks to Helena Marchmont for creating a new favorite of mine! 💗

Good, but could have been better

Reviewed: 02-21-23

I love this series, have listened to most of them multiple times waiting for new ones to come out. This one had a good story line but I have to admit it doesn’t live up to the expectations that the rest of the series sets. It’s a bit of a high bar, and this one just doesn’t quite make that cut.
The others had so much to keep you on edge, that this one feels ever so slightly boring by comparison. It is still worth the read, especially to get Levi’s story. However, I hope Ms. Wright has a little bit more in store for Larken’s story.

Terrific story as always!

Karen Baugh Menuhin never disappoints me and neither does Sam Dewhurst-Phillips. Together as a writer narrator combo, they make an amazing pair and I am so thankful for finding the first Heathcliff Lennox book several years ago.
I after finishing one book I always look so much forward to the next to be available on Audible. I would read them in book form because it’s available sooner, but I LOVE Sam Dewhurst-Phillips’ narration! It literally wouldn’t be the same without him!
Many thanks to this dynamic duo for the wonderfully dynamic stories and amazing narration that always keeps me engaged and coming back for more!

I love love love these books. They make me feel like I’m going home every time I listen to one. I ADORE Sam Dewhurst-Phillips. No one can narrate like him. He has such a huge range of voices for characters and he just embodies Heathcliff Lennox so well!!
Please keep up the good work KBM, your books are one of my greatest pleasures!

Where to begin…

Reviewed: 02-18-22

I’m not 100% sure where to start for this. The immaturely terrible writing? The insanely unbelievable story lines? The awful narration?
I actually forced myself to listen through all 5 books just so I could give a fair review. Unfortunately, not only did it not get better as the books changed from one to the next, they actually got harder to get through. The story lines got less believable and the writing got more immature.
The narrator makes a great little. That is the only positive I have for the narration. She has no variation in her voice for other characters at all. Which means, when you’re listening to what’s supposed to be an alpha male, Daddy Dom, you’re literally hearing the voice of a little. And her penchant for running on with the sentences and incorrect pausing, makes it sound that much more like a little, so the unbelievable story lines sound that much more ludicrous because you have a little’s voice coming out of a Daddy Dom.

I won’t listen to more of this author. I’m afraid that the writing here seemed juvenile to the point of a high school kid writing their fantasies in a journal. Not an author publishing a book.

Do better Audible. Require better.
Scott Wylder, your story ideas have merit, but they need much better execution. Instead of making them itty bitty stories, they needed to be expanded in order to provide better development for not only the characters, but also their stories. These sounded like what you would use to pitch a story idea, not the finished product.

Annabelle Archer, you need to develop your skill set better. If this is what you enjoy and wish to do, be good at your craft. Get voice lessons and take acting classes. Make an effort.

I absolutely do not recommend this book series. You will be let down. Especially if you’re in the lifestyle. Because I’m then it just feels like the immature ramblings of a kid who fantasizes about it, and wants yo be part of it, but doesn’t yet know what it’s really about.

Great Story

Reviewed: 02-07-22

I’ve decided after a couple books now, that I love this author in most ways but there is just one thing that I don’t love about her style.
She has fantastic storylines and she does a really great job of developing her characters and making you love them. The only issue I have when it comes to her books so far is she has a tendency to hit dramatic parts and stay on them until your anxiety just can’t handle it anymore. At least that’s how it has been for me in both the books I have read from her so far. It just lasts a little too long for my tastes. Some may like this characteristic of her writing! It’s not my particular cup of tea. However, I genuinely love everything else about her stories and writing!
As for the narrators I thought they did a fantastic job. Aiden Snow, as always, is a favorite of mine, always! He did wonderful on this book, he never disappoints me. And Desiree Ketchum did a terrific job on this as well. Overall most definitely worth the read, especially once you get past the significantly long anxious period.

Really bad male narrator.

Reviewed: 12-26-21

The story line was good like the last in my opinion, but I truly don’t understand why they chose Alex Kidd to narrate the male characters. It almost hurts to listen to. I ended up reading a huge portion of it via kindle and only listening when I couldn’t actually sit down to read. This book needs to be re-recorded with a better male narrator. Anastasia did a good job on the female character though.

ALL The Feels!!

Reviewed: 12-10-21

I was excited about this book when I was only halfway through the first one of the series. I’m not at all disappointed! It was so good! Be prepared, it will take you through all the emotions at one point or other.
The narrators did well and the storyline continues and gets better from the last book. Definitely worth the credit!

Keeps You Entertained

Reviewed: 12-08-21

This book surprised me in good ways. There was a little more depth than you usually find in a lot of MC romances. The characters are great and pretty well developed. Enjoyed the story line greatly and am really excited to listen to the next book with Zeus. I already fell for him in this one so, I’m pretty stoked. As an introduction to Giana Darling, I was not at all disappointed.
