Karma,. It's what they call me and the very essence of who I am. When I died young, I was recruited by the agency that keeps the universe running smoothly. As someone with a human past, most of my coworkers consider me inferior.

But not everyone. Something evil has been stalking me for centuries. It's been biding its time, waiting for the moment when it will strike, and it needs me to do it.

Its methods of recruitment are tearing apart every aspect of my life. I'm slowly losing myself, both mentally and physically. I don't know who I can count on, but I'm finding out how much I'm willing to sacrifice to save the ones I care about.

I'm a PNR junkie and am very critical of the books that I run across. They are usually formulaic tropes or something very cool and original, so I usually have about a 50/50 shot of liking the book and having not read the first book in this series, I was pretty resigned to not liking this one but the narration was very good and after a few chapters I was able to figure out what was going on and enjoyed the ride enough that I purchased book 3 before book 2 even ended. It's definitely a different twist on a slice of PNR that isn't explored in this same manner. Very original 👍

Surprising not bad

For a romance, it has quite a bit of suspense! You'd be jinxed to mess with Karma! By the end I started to become concerned for the welfare of all the characters. (Even Harold...)

Angel's narration brought all of the characters to life. I enjoyed it, now for some tea to relax my nerves a bit!

...Wow!

Would you listen to Jinxed again? Why?

I liked the story, I really did but the narrator is not my favorite. I would probably listen to it again because I did like the story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The Jinxes ... they crack me the hell up.

What aspect of Angel Clark’s performance would you have changed?

ALL OF IT

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

The book was pretty long, so one sitting is a bit much. However, I was eager to get back to the story each time.

Any additional comments?

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.

Karma can be a bummer

The story is really a decent story and it's the only reason I continued listening. S much time as gone on in the story one would think the character would "get it " by now and quit whining and arguing with EVERYONE she comes in contact with. Also, the sexual tension and the feelings of "I cannot believe I am attracted to him but I am" the author tries to keep between the main characters is annoying and monotonous. It's too late for the author to read my pleas of "No more" but not too late for you to move on to the next book you may be considering.

Monotonous. Still a whiney/argumentative character

What made the experience of listening to Jinxed the most enjoyable?

I am addicted to Karma's afterlife story - the good and the bad - through her point of view. As listeners/readers, we get to experience what she is experiencing... meet the characters from our dreams, nightmares and fairy tales with her,

As an example, one of my favorite scenes from this installment was when Karma met and rode a Night Mare. To say I was in awe is an understatement. Following please find a short snippet setting up her mind-blowing ride:

"She's the queen of the herd."
"May I touch her?"
"If she'll let you. She doesn't take to strangers well."
I took a hesitant step forward and reached out my hand. Terror approached me with confidence, then ducked her muzzle beneath my palm. Once she came closer, for a moment, I feared she was going to trample me. But then she brushed gently against my side.
"She wants you to ride her." Jockey looked at me. "This is an honor."
All thoughts of bailing out quietly went to hell with that statement. Why not? How often did you get a chance to ride a Night Mare?

What did you like best about this story?

I love the colorful assortment of characters in this series. In this installment, we meet Night Mares and Santa and more. Cupid is still playing his lusty tricks. The Tooth Fairy, Lady Luck, Murphy's Law, Death, the Jinxes and more from the first book return. The Jinxes are some of my favorites characters in the series for the comic relief that often accompanies their antics.

Have you listened to any of Angel Clark’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This audio was narrated by Angel Clark. She had also ably narrated the first book. As before, she delivered a solid performance. Her voice for the villains was so spot on that it gave me the chills over how evil they were. She delivered the wonderful spots of humor with aplomb. I didn't focus too much on her characterizations as the story riveted my attention. I confess to squeezing in some extra workouts as I did with the first book - so I could enjoy some more listening time.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

There's still humor - thank goodness - but there's an horrific villainous element in this one. Sadistic torture is just one of the creep's tools and I could only shudder during some parts.

Any additional comments?

This sequel is a darker, much more intense installment than the first book and finds Karma in some seriously big trouble. Kitty, one of Karma's co-workers, has been kidnapped and Karma feels responsible. I hoped that Karma would rise to the occasion as she is truly an impressive kickass heroine, but she really needed help herein whether she knew it or not.
Thankfully, she has Fate in her corner. Fate is still sexy as hell, just as obstinate as before, but, this time, we are treated to a caring side of him and I like it. In Karma's words:
“To sum it up, Fate was like the Universe’s experiment in extra credit. If the rest of us were a scoop of vanilla ice cream, he was a sundae, with extra fudge and a cherry.”

Karma is in some seriously big trouble...
