Fire burns the worst sins. Trust is overrated.

Killing for pleasure is messy, bloody, chaotic....

He was supposed to die.

But now I have him where I want him, I can’t help but taste him a little.

All of them.

They've gotten under my skin. These Sacred Heart boys.

The way they look at me, a need, a hunger clawing inside, I recognize it in the mirror. It’s their eyes. They tell me they don't give a fuck if they live or die. That I’m the prey and they're the carnivores. That they're soulless.

But in the end, they all beg.

Violent, bloody, and raw.

Because I’m the real monster.

They just don’t know it yet.

Y’all this book, it’s crazy y’all! I’m gonna say it’s way, way out of my typical reads.. BUT y’all this mess was wild! Mallory Fox does not disappoint! This chick knows how to write and will keep you on your toes! Talk about fast paced and NEVER a dull moment. Straight out the gate I was like, No way did that just happen!!

The twists and turns of this book will keep you guessing! You never know what’s going to happen next. Viola the FMC, that heifer is CRAZY, unhinged! You wouldn’t want to come up on her in a dark alley. There’s lots of trigger warnings in here, mainly because of Viola, lol. I cannot wait to see where this story goes with all her men, it ends on a bit of a hanger and makes you wonder what could possibly happen next!

The audiobook, Hannah Hedley and Lucas Webley were fantastic! They deliver a spectacular performance with all kinds of emotion that will keep you gripped to the fast paced storyline. With he cliffhanger ending, you will be wanting to binge this series.

Great voices. They both did a great job.

Be sure to check your triggers. This is dark.
Book #1 A Violent Agenda series

I really liked that the FMC is strong and independent not weak damsel in distress. Her relationship and chemistry with the guys was fire.

Dark and twisty romance.

Lucas Webley and Hannah Hedley brought these characters to life. I am so hooked into this story and Viola and the men whose attention she has caught were so vibrant and interesting. Viola taking things into her own hands while investigating is so bad ass. I canot wait to see where this goes. there were twists that keep you wanting to know more. I'm keeping it vague cause I don't wanna spoil anything. Lucas did great showing each characters perspective and personality. Hannah was perfect for Viola.

Captivating Plot and fantastic narration

In A History of Violence: A Violent Agenda, Book 1, Mallory Fox plunges listeners into the dark and compelling world of Viola, a self-reliant assassin who thrives on doing things her own way. Narrated by Hannah Hedley and Lucas Webley, the audiobook truly brings Viola’s audacious personality to life, making it a captivating listen for anyone who enjoys a fiercely independent female lead.


Viola is a "baddie FMC" in every sense of the word. Her internal monologue, which the narrators expertly convey, is a highlight of the audiobook. When she’s assigned a mission at an elite high school, she anticipates a routine hit. However, things quickly escalate as she not only catches the attention of her target but also his intriguing circle of friends. This unexpected development throws a wrench into her carefully laid plans and adds layers of complexity to her mission.

As Viola delves deeper into her investigation, she uncovers a web of secrets far more intricate than she initially imagined. Fox masterfully weaves a narrative filled with twists and turns, dispensing clues in a tantalizing manner that keeps listeners on the edge of their seats. The slow reveal of the bigger picture is incredibly effective, building anticipation for the next installment.

The dual narration by Hannah Hedley and Lucas Webley is a standout feature. They skillfully navigate the varying tones and intense emotional landscapes of the story, enhancing the raw and violent atmosphere. Their performances ensure that Viola’s lethal charm and the dark allure of the "Sacred Heart boys" are palpable, making the audiobook a truly immersive experience. A History of Violence promises a gritty, bloody, and unpredictable journey, and listeners will undoubtedly be eager to see what unfolds next.

Viola is such a baddie FMC assassin, who does things her own way and doesn’t take sh*t from anyone. I absolutely loved being in her head

She is assigned a target at an elite high school but soon realized she got a bit more than she bargained for when she catches the eye of her target and his friends

As she investigates her target she realizes that there is a lot more to the story than she originally thought.

The story has some twists and turns and you’ve given bits and pieces of the full picture as the story continues. I really cannot wait to see what the next book has in store

I received this as an audiobook and really enjoyed the narrators. They really brought the story to life!

Dark romance. Why choose. Baddie FMC

Great book but I bought this book thinking I hadn’t listened to it. It was previously released was a different cover. Google it and it will ring a bell if the story sounds familiar. Returned with no issues though.

So I was kind of confused at first and wasn’t sure where this was going but man did it twist and turn and get wild at points! I loved the idea behind this story and how it was told. I was confused at points with the amount of characters introduced and who and what was happening to them, but to be fair I was also working at the same time so I don’t blame the book at all and it becomes evident of what is going on. The ending is a great cliffhanger of information that I can’t wait to be answered. The narration was phenomenal with Lucas, as always, and new to me Hannah. At first I thought Hannah’s narration dragged on and was cold but then I realized that she was truly embodying Violas characteristics. She was did such a great job switching between character personalities and depicting each one. Lucas is amazing and never ceases to amaze me with his talents of voice modulation and accents. All around phenomenal and I can’t wait for the next one!!!

Twisted and awesome

This FMC is a baddie! I absolutely loved how strong she was.
I was a bit confused when it would go between multiple men’s pov and multiple women’s pov but only one female narrator and one male. So I would sometimes have to go back and realize wait this is “so and so” talking. But other than that I think the narrators were great, love the accents.
The story line is great and come on now having a dagger on you at all times, calls for some good times!

Strong fmc

5⭐️ 4🌶️ 5🎧

Producer: Audio Sorceress

Narration type: duet
Standard length: 6:21
Listening speed: 1.6x

Tropes: dark, why choose, serial unaliver, touch them and ☠️, prep school, criminal underground, reverse age gap

📖 This was a dark and twisted read that I absolutely devoured! Viola is my new girl crush — she’s an absolute bad ass! As a contract unaliver, she’s sent undercover into a prep school to take out a student that happens to be the son of one of the city’s criminal overlords. But she is immediately drawn to him… and two of his friends. As a girl with absolutely no feelings… in general or for anyone, this is odd for her. Before she can take care of the job she feels the need to investigate a bit further and uncovers much more than she bargained for. There are twists and turns and hanging threads that are yet to be pulled. This is quite dark, so please check the TW. And this is not a standalone — so be prepared for this to end on a cliffy! I can’t wait to dive into the next book when the audio comes out!

🎧 I REALLY enjoyed this audio! It was the last audio I listened to in 2023 and it made its way into my top 23 audiobooks of ‘23!
Lucas Webley is one of my favs and he crushed it as usual. He can do so many different accents perfectly, making him such a great narrator for why choose. In this book he voiced multiple MMCs with unique British accents — I won’t begin to try to describe where they each sounded like they’re from since that’s not my region of the world. But I will say I could tell that each character sounded different, some a little more posh sounding than others. And he does a fantastic job with pacing and emotion, really keeping me engaged throughout.
This was my first time listening to Hannah Hedley and I was impressed. She did have a different British accent than I’ve heard before but I enjoyed it! At first I thought her narration sounded a little emotionless, but then I thought more about the character she was portraying and it was absolute perfection. Viola doesn’t experience human emotion like others and often describes feeling nothing, so that vocal performance was spot on. But don’t worry, you absolutely won’t be listening to a monotone performance, she is fantastic!

Fantastic dark why choose + great duet narration!
