I frigging LOVED IT!!

This book had it all. Star crossed lovers with lots of drama, sex, plot, and new paranormal creatures! The characters were my favorite part but keep in mind that this is a long story with fast pacing. I read some of the reviews and it did not feel all over the place for me at least, it was actually pretty easy to follow. I think if you like pages of details about a room or place this may not be the book for you, this one is detailed but moves right along and focuses on the plot and characters which I personally like.

I picked up a sexy Angel and Demon vibe from Serene and Tristan. She’s innocent and sheltered and he is everything her society views as evil, but the way he softens up around her and the way she becomes stronger around him made for some sexy chemistry. The summary for book two start with the words ‘stronger, darker, hotter’ so hopefully this means Serene will break the chains of her society and kick some butt! I can’t wait to read it!

loved it

Listening to this book was absolutely awesome! I was hooked right from the start. Tristan has a life of bad habits so it was interesting to hear about his softer side. It is always nice to read an alpha male evening out when they meet their special someone(s).

This one will draw you in and have you wearing ear buds doing simple things just to keep listening. It is definitely worth the read my friends.

Emotional Story

This is a very creative story. It centers around Tristan and Serene. Tristan has been dating a group of Krov women without knowing it. The women manipulated him. Tristan also had a virus. The humans don't know anything about the existence of Krovs. I don't think I could've forgiven all of those women especially Cami. Tristan lives in the dark sector. Tristan himself is in a dark place until he meets Serene. Serene lives in the light sector. Serene embodies goodness until she meets Tristan. Once Tristan and Serene meet everything spins out of control. I would like to see both of them stand up for themselves and be happy. I'm looking forward to the next book.

If you like dark romance, I would highly recommend

Well that was a hell of a ride! If your looking for an audiobook that will keep your attention I highly recommend this book. It's Smut, romance, Sci-fi and horror all put into one and you will find the plot and the narrator sucking you into this carefully created world between Light and Dark sectors.

Krovs is about a man who lives in a corrupted Dark sector and he doesn't know he's being used for sex by a large group of supernatural Krov women. He has actually never slept with a human and he was also trained to be extremely rough sexually so when he meets innocent and gentle Serene (who's from a Light sector) he instantly knows there is something different about her. There is also another reason he is drawn to Serene but... I don't want to give out any spoilers. Their chemistry is fire and you want nothing more than a happily ever after for this couple.

My favorite characters were Lea and Serene, but Tristan grows on you too. Serene is a very likable innocent character from a Light sector. She comes off sweet and sheltered but not stupid and she grows stronger mentally as time goes on. The writing here is phenomenal! The characters are well rounded, the plot is deep and well thought out. The narrator did a great job giving each of them that additional touch via their unique voices and mannerisms. The way he voices Tristan sometimes is *chefs kiss*. Sometimes it honestly felt like I was watching a movie instead of listening to a book.

Over all really loved this story and I can't wait for more.

Interesting

This audiobook was interesting. The story was different to the norm and honestly felt all over the place. It was hard to keep track of everything that was going on and you don’t really get a good grasp of the world until later. The story was told in the third person and was kind of annoying. It took me awhile to get into it and honestly the spicy scenes are the only reason I finished. I might read book 2 when it comes out.

Just to note the narrator did a great job with the story but you can have the best narrator in the world and if the story is lacking then there’s nothing to be done about it. I enjoyed the book regardless it was just hard to get through because of the point of view.

Okay

This story held an element of intrigue but was initially difficult to immerse myself into, perhaps it part due to the storyline itself and a bit due to the narration. The storyline did not pull me in, was a bit direction-less at the beginning until the love interest arrived on the scene, and the hero demonstrated some unexpected behaviors (hinted at in the beginning). The plot line seemed to find its way at that point. Once the society’s secrets started to unravel, the story took off.

With the story being in the third person and lending the impression of omniscience, the voice performance felt curtailed. The story sounded as if the characters were talking about themselves rather than telling their own story. Also, I wasn't a fan of the voice acting of the male tone and cadence, in particular. Actually, voicing the women roles were more appealing.

Overall, creative fantasy particularly after midway, but I think the delivery would have been stronger in first person and with a compelling grab at the beginning.

Just okay for me

I know Serene will probably change in time, but I could not stand her character so far. Her naivete and just plain ignorance about literally everything drove me insane. I understood the reasoning behind it with her being sheltered and all, but it's interesting how she looked at things from the outside and was able to piece together how she didn't want a life in the light sector and then just continually caved over and over again as soon as she was around her family and Alex. She was so easily manipulated by Tristan, Alex, and her mother, it was pathetic. I would love to see her become a Kroc and eat Alex for breakfast. I will try the next book to see if she becomes a bad b**** but I'm hesitant. This book was so much longer than I felt it needed to be; the constant back and forth with Serene changing her mind and Tristan continually thinking he's ready to see her then realizing his training hadn't prepared him enough yet... it was exhausting and kind of boring to listen to at points. The narrator did a pretty good job, I've heard novels with his narration before and while I always liked his voice, it would have been nice to have a female narrating the female voices because while I know he's doing it unintentionally, the women sound nasally, snotty, and just plain stupid sometimes. Leah was a great character that had a lot more to her than we realized at first, and her bimbo voice didn't do her much justice, not that it's the narrator's fault that he was told to speak her voice that way. Cam's voice is another that would have been a great one to be voiced by a woman. Regardless, I don't think I can make a verdict on this one until I hear the rest of the series. I honestly thought this was a standalone until I got to the end, I probably missed it in the summary or something before buying it. But it has time to redeem itself, maybe.

Intense!

This story is intense! The steamy scenes are great and the story is good. It just felt all over the place to me. And I had a hard time staying invested. The plot has alot to do with morality and the scale of it, plus a whole star crossed lovers feel with a paranormal edge.

Amazing plot!

I absolutely loved the plot! M. Lee Woe has created a fantastic world in which paranormal creatures, Krovs, exists. The Krovs are powerful, dangerous, ruthless, and bloodthirsty.

Tristan has always lived a life full of drugs, sex, and danger. When he meets Serene he can’t help the intense attraction he feels for her and vice versa. Serene has lived a life full of rules and regulations. Serene and Tristan are from different worlds and we're left to see if and how things work out with them. I'm rooting for Serene and Tristan to get their HEA and I am so excited for the next book after where this one left off!

I devoured this audiobook once I got used to the narrator’s voice. This book was phenomenal and it had me hooked. If this narrator narrates another book I’d listen to it, but I wouldn’t run to listen to it.
