About this listen

I’m running from the LAPD and my evil stepfather. I wasn’t expecting Aiden, Andre, Gareth, and Casey.

My mother finally calls to tell me she’s ready to leave my abusive, corrupt-cop-of-a-stepfather. I planned our escape down to T. I planned for everything except Jake being there when I got to her house. I shot him...with his own gun...in the worst place you can possibly wound a man. He yelled that he was never going to stop looking for me and I would pay as I fled my life in LA. Jake always wanted my trust fund. I knew if he ever found me, I wouldn’t survive the encounter. He’d probably torture me first for what I did to him with his own gun.

I fled to New Orleans, thinking to hide among the tourists. The first thing I did was go to a salon to change my looks. There’s a huge, sexy, tattooed man sitting there getting a pedicure. He’s probably one of the most infuriating men I’ve ever met, trying to dictate my makeover and trying to convince me to come stay with him and his probably equally infuriating buddies. I underestimated the rum content in the drinks at the restaurant I agreed to go with them because I was starving. And I wake up in their huge fortress.

I make the best of my situation. I get to know Andre, the billionaire software developer who owns this huge house; Gareth, the wisecracking security guard; Aiden, the sensitive artist; and I don’t even know what to make of Casey. Casey totally avoids me. I jump at the chance when they all say they want to get to know me better. It’ll get my mind off my secret, and they all want to protect me without asking what it is.

But how can I pick? What is Casey hiding? Will Jake find me here and hurt my new friends?

Fugitive: Misty

well good start, poor girl had it ruff since she was 16, thats sad . then to find out her mother betrayal, man that cut deep. Then what the drug addict cop wanted to do to her that was not cool, I'm just glad the boys came in time to rescue her. I'm glad she found these boys to help her and protect her. the narrator did a really great job too.

Fantastic characters & narration!

I thought this was a great audiobook. It was recommended to me to try this on audible and I was surprised there were negative reviews, The narrator was fantastic, the characters were great!! Pretty engaging and I thought the scenes that were really hot were really done well. Glad it was recommended.

Narrator

I enjoyed the book but the narration was very bad. Especially the males in the story. I feel that they sounded like girls with nasal congestion, squeaky mouse. Get men to do the narration if you can’t or don’t have a female that can do both really well!

Need a different narrator.

The story was great, but I struggled because of the male voices. The men lived in New Orleans, but they all sounded like immature surfer boys. Whenever there were sexy times, I couldn't help but think one of the guys was going to say, " You got boobs, haha, cool" or " that's rad" . I had to insert a different male voice in my head, just to get through is with out giggling.

Just wow!

I love this start to this series! Misty and her relationship with Aiden, Andre, Casey and Gareth is so compelling. I love how these big strong men, practically strangers, saw her and wanted to take her in and protect her without even knowing her story. Especially with Casey being a cop and wanting to help her no matter what happened. And these guys don't disappoint when the jerk Jake takes their girl and they do all they can to find her, but misty is no damsel in distress she kicks ass and thinks quickly on her feet which i love. Mistys relationship with all 4 guys is amazing and I cannot wait to continue this series with books from the guys POV.

Fugitive: Misty

The story was good, but the narration—not so much. S.L. Crawley did a fair job with the narration. The story would have benefitted by having a better narrator. I received this free copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Like the story but the narration was horrible.

I read this story on my Kindle and liked it. When I got the chance to listen to it I was excited. But the reader ruined it. The guys who were all from New Orleans had these weird voices....and she did not even keep the voices consistent. Some of the time they sounded like brainless surfer dudes then at other times like a 40-year-old uptight anal accountants and then different at other times. Not like 4 sexy guys in any way. Honestly glad I read it first because no way I would have continued if I had just listened to this alone. Her voice for the mc was ok.

Not a fan of the audio unfortunately 😞

I went through my audible library and looked for one last book for the year and picked this one, a first from this author for me. I picked up this series during the big audible end of summer sale and I am on the fence about it honestly.

The story isn't bad, I am not a huge fan of instant love like this one in a contemporary romance. I can get onboard in a paranormal setting because of the fictional world and premises (especially like mates and all that), but for me contemporary, while fiction, has certain not rules or boundaries but you have to be more realistic if that makes sense. Like what women, on the run for shooting a cop, would befriend these guys and stay with them after getting randomly drunk with them. I don't know, the story just didnt connect with me. I liked the different guys and how they each got days with her and time (which all got steamy despite their no sex rule haha). Overall it was ok, not sure if I will continue the story to be honest.

I think the main thing that is holding me back from continuing is the audiobook part. I might try and read this on ebook because I want to know what happens but I cannot do the audiobook unfortunately. I thought the narrator did a great job with Misty but her performances for the guy was painful at times. She gave some of them like a surfer vibe half the time, the voices weren't consistent, the voice she tried to do for the cop made her sound like she was holding her nose and trying to talk as low as she can. At that point, it would have been better just speaking in her normal voice because it was good. It just took me out of the story when half the guys were talking. I have the rest on audio and I would never try to return them because that is horrible for the author, but I will not be listening to the rest unless I read some reviews saying the narration gets better.

Save yourself the credit/eyeroll...opt for the book instead.

This is a standard-ish RH, fun story, insta-attraction, a little intrigue. The story works if those are your thangs.

S.L. Crawley, however, does not. She made the story cheesy and so anything funny fell flat. Anything that was supposed to be sexy sounded like my grandmother reading an instructional book on how to sew. And her male character voices are embarrassingly terrible. Like when you're mocking a guy, so you pucker your lips and frown and pretend to have a deep voice.

Just comically bad.

I'm positive I've written a bad review for a different story this narrator performed. I need to figure out a way to skip past audible books that are performed by narrators on my "nope, never again" list.
