Publisher's summary

Grayson

Seven years ago, I left the special forces and my home after a tragic betrayal. I carefully constructed a new life in New York. I thought I had it all. A world-famous boxing trainer by day. A mafia hit man by night. Free to live in the darkness to do what I was trained to do. To kill. I finally felt free.

But one kiss was all it took to shatter life as I knew it. The one woman who hated my guts scaled the walls I built around my black heart. My ray of sunshine.

Just when I believed I could have it all, life blows it up right before my eyes. I know how far I’m willing to go to fight for her. But can she truly love someone who could never give her the fairy tale she so desperately craves?

Maddie

I was sick of being the family disappointment. The one who could never get a man to stick around. So I kissed a lot of frogs to try to find my prince. Instead, I fell in love with the villain. The last man on earth I thought I could ever love.

He might call me sunshine, but I crave his darkness. I wasn’t meant for his world, but he took me anyway, and I never wanted to leave. Sometimes, life doesn’t give you a choice. Can I give up on my search when I have the monster offering me the world? Even if loving me puts us both in danger.

So Emotional, Love It

Maxine and Robert are two of my top 10 performers. They are so emotional, and everything comes with them, tears, laughter, shock, they're they best together. The storyline was good that I got through this book in a day or two, great while driving home.

Even better than the first book...

Loved this story. This one was even better than the first! The FMC is so enjoyable and I found myself laughing often with her comments and actions. The MMC is yummy with his typical alpha behavior. He is not a "good" guy but you can't help but love him and route for him.
Narration was on point and the steam was S-T-E-A-M-Y!!! Enjoy and don't even think about the credit spent. You won't care!

Morally Grey MMC

This book was an enemies-to-lovers romance with the mafia and sports. The FMC, Maddie, was more likable with each chapter, but I was all for Grayson’s morally grey character.

Great narration + yummy MMC + action packed plot!

4⭐️ 3🌶️ 4.5🎧

Producer: Blue Nose Audio
Narrators: Maxine Mitchell + Robert Hatchett
Narration type: Dual
Standard length: 8:23
Listening speed: 1.7x

Tropes: dark, mafia, ex-military, frenemies to lovers, touch her and ☠️, possessive MMC x feisty FMC

📖 This was my first Luna Mason book, and I was definitely able to start on book 2 but I’m itching to go back and hit up book 1 now. Grayson is such a great MMC — he’s tough, but a bit broken, and has sworn off love and really anything more than a one night stand after a brutal betrayal. Then Maddie enters the chat and changes everything for him. He goes from wild tiger to purring house cat, but don’t worry, he’s still FERAL for her 🥵
The plot in this one was action packed and really enjoyable! I’m looking forward to Luca’s story in book 3.

🎧 Maxine and Robert did an excellent job with the narration in this one. I would describe Maxine’s voice as medium to deep in pitch (for a female) with a smooth timbre. She paces the dialogue really well with natural pauses and makes clear transitions from narrator voice to speaking voice. Her emotional expression and male speaking voice was on point too.
I would describe Robert’s voice as medium to deep in pitch (for a male) with a rich, smooth timbre. He has a very natural sounding cadence and modulates his voice to clearly indicate narrator voice vs MMC speaking voice vs other speaking voices. All around fantastic narration!

“I needed the darkness to set fire to my soul.”

Detonate is yet another outstanding audiobook.

Detonate is yet another outstanding audiobook.
Oh, how I've waited for this one. I finished reading the ebook ages ago.
But the wait was so worth it. The audio narration by Maxine Mitchell and Robert Hatchet kicks up the heat, tempo, and overall brilliant storyline. Making it one of my all times must-have audiobooks.
All I can say is give me more~!!!!!!!
