About this listen

If the lights go out forever, can love survive?

When four women from different walks of life are brought together by fate to witness the end of the world as they know it, each must find a way to survive against the odds as well as learn to rely on each other.

Jackie Scott wields incredible influence as a magazine executive in Seattle. As she plans a smashing party for her 40th birthday, everything is precisely as she wants it. But when a solar storm lights up the night sky in a dazzling display, it not only ruins the party, but destroys power around the planet, and Jackie must turn for help from the one woman she has tried so hard not to want: Taylor.

Taylor Barnes is an Army veteran new to Seattle and wants nothing more than to find some peace and quiet working as a rent-a-cop in a corporate high-rise. When she is asked to attend the birthday party of the building's powerful and sexy CEO, she can hardly say no. Little did she realize every skill she ever learned would be put to the test to save the woman she can't seem to stop thinking about: Jackie.

Anna Patten is a nurse practitioner who has returned one last time to the town she ran away from to pack up the house where she grew up. Trying to avoid any drama, she cannot get away fast enough, or so she tells herself while her heart wonders about her high school crush. When fate lands them together in Seattle at a birthday party, suddenly, Anna must lean on the woman she once left behind: Lexi.

Lexi Scott has built a simple life of writing novels and remodeling her farmhouse, but when she runs into a long-lost friend, her world is turned upside down. It's not until she attends her sister Jackie's birthday party that she is forced to not only face the apocalypse, but now she must decide if she is willing to risk her heart again to save the only woman she ever loved: Anna.

The end of the world is only the beginning.

If you like a story with romance and adventure, mixed with conflict and heroism, then you will love KC Luck’s pause-resisting new audiobook. Explore the world of Darkness Falls today!

Note: This is a full-length, stand-alone novel with a science fiction/end-of-the-world theme, but it is significantly more focused on strong female characters in a loving lesbian relationship.

A good LGBT+ story that goes beyond romance.

FINALLY!

This was a story first. It's hard to find a good LGBT+ story that GOES BEYOND ROMANCE. This one did and it was refreshing.

The characters could have been straight, but we're lesbians instead. As a lesbian, I was looking for that. Just as black actors can play parts other than those based on slavery (why did that take so long?), "the gays" can do more then just fall in love.

STORY:
This story was realistic, believable, adventurous and perfectly paced. Oh, and it was HOT too, just say'en ;-)

NARRATION:
The narrator is great; actually I loved her. Usually, I rate the narrator on their diversity of character voices. While I could easily tell who was who (mostly contributed to the author), the narrator's skill was in her delivery of emotions. It sounded like she enjoyed reading it, thus, I enjoyed hearing it. There was REAL emotion there. I heard joy, panic, passion, fear etc in her voice.

5 stars because it delivered. It was true to it's description and worth every minute. It's not an earth shattering drama or exhausting action/thriller. It was an adventurous, fictional story in the LGBT+ genre. Well done.

It was a decent

Good setup to lay the foundation for the book, decent story line, but it was honestly the narration that made it somewhat irritating of a listen.

The inflection in Dixon's voice seemed inappropriate at times. For example, she would exhibit an excited and smile-in-your-voice inflection, when it should have sounded exasperated and irritated instead.

To me there were some really stupid gaffes on the parts of the main characters that made me groan horribly. However, there were some amazing feats and creative ingenuity to balance it out. So the story was decent.

Now the saucy scenes, were very ... NICE :D ... to say the least!

This isn't a bad read, but the narrator's performane almost ruined it for me. I started looking at how much time I had left about halfway through just to see how much more I had to push through to the end, or just give in and change to give my head a rest and a break from listening to her for a while. The storyline was enough to help me stick through it though.

Incredible!

Great story, even better characters. I loved the story over all and how the characters pushed through each new situation. Great balance of action and romance. Can't wait to listen to the next book!

Good story, terrible narration.

I have no complaints on the story so far, and maybe I should finish the book before writing a review but I might not be able to finish. The narrator sounds like she’s reading to a kindergarten class and it’s just cringe. Maybe I’ve been spoiled to the narration of Abby Craden and her ability to create different voices and inflection but this woman makes me want to buy the paper copy.

Sink your teeth into a post-apocalyptic adventure!

If you like post-apocalyptic tales full of strong women characters who are lesbians, you are in the right place. I really enjoyed getting to know the four main characters as they developed from the beginning of the book and continued to evolve in their new environment. Darkness Falls has a main end of the world plot as well as developing or rekindling long lost love story which enhanced the human side of not only surviving, but thriving in a new world. One of the women is also a military veteran which lent more realism to some of the nastier business of survival. As an Army veteran, I love lesbian veteran characters! I have listened to all three books and would highly recommend taking the plunge and listening to them all back to back. I am placing these on my annual re-listen list.

Narrator: Violet Dixon was great. I saw others throw shade on her. I have been a subscriber to Audible for over 10 years and have been listening to audio books since cassette days. Violet is a great narrator. Better yet, Violet narrates all three books!

Enjoyable listen.

The content of the book is good. Author does a good job at detailing the characters. The story is unique although, as an engineer I kinda found myself wanting to know more about why and how the disaster happened. theres no technical story. Whatever, the drama is fun. The narrator takes a bit to get used to. Her inflection is weird sometimes, but she does a decent job at telling the story. overall, a decent read and worth the time.

Love this book...

First in a series, this book jumps off the high dive and plunges you into a crisis fully invested in the characters. All the notes are hit with new relationships forming and long lost loves reunited in the midst of worldwide blackouts. These women are strong, brave, tender and kind. Set in the Pacific Northwest the tone is set where the cities are surrounded by rural areas. At times a bit surreal due to rush on stores we’ve seen during pandemic. So it’s definitely very timely. What would you do?

I love this book.

The only complaint I have is that the narrator sounds like she's smiling while reading the sex scenes.
it's a little bit off putting.
Otherwise it's great. Stronger smart women surviving an apocalypse. Nothing better then that.
