Publisher's summary

From best-selling author Anne L. Parks comes both a chilling thriller and moving love story.

Kylie Tate survived a life of dominance and abuse. An up-and-coming criminal defense attorney, she has been assigned to a first-degree murder case that could make or break her career. The downside - the second chair is fellow attorney and violent ex-boyfriend John Sysco.

When she catches the eye of enigmatic billionaire Alex Stone, she can't help but be drawn to him. Unfortunately, John is not willing to let her go - especially not into the arms of another man.

As John's sanity spirals into darkness, his attempts to get Kylie back escalate, along with the abuse she thought she had escaped. The one glimmer of hope she has is the unconditional support Alex provides. Ravaged by demons from his past, Alex vows to stop at nothing to keep Kylie safe.

But the closer the couple gets, the more Kylie wonders if Alex is truly her savior - or as dark and dangerous as John.

Formerly titled Of Demons & Stones.

Excellent Romantic Suspense!

This was my first Anne L. Parks's book, and won't be my last. This is the first book in the Kylie Tate Romantic Thriller trilogy. Wow!! I loved it! Kylie and Alex's story is complex and suspenseful. They both are interesting characters. The storyline is filled with mystery, secrets, danger, and twists and turns. The world building is intriguing. The story ends with a cliffhanger, and I am looking forward to listening to Revenge, the next book in the series. Raquel Beattie and Orcus Auditory did an amazing job with the narration. They are new narrators to me. Their voices are very pleasant to listen to. This is an excellent romantic thriller.

a romantic thriller

First time author for me. With a new author I often try and find something out about them. There wasn't much to be found about this author, legal background and wife of a Navy guy was about all I could come up with. The main character went to Michigan Law which made me wonder if that's where she went?

Anyway, in my experience, romantic thrillers are thrillers that have one or two erotic romantic episodes where the sex is really explicit. This one was different in that it didn't have the erotic sex but rather had a sexual tension that lasted throughout the book. It's up to the listener to know and decide which type they like best, maybe both.

On the thriller side, it was pretty good. If anything there was a foreboding of really bad things to happen and you are just waiting for the shoe to drop. The author does a good job and making you wonder if the new boyfriend is capable to the things the old boyfriend brought to the table. Usually I don't mind the suspense and bad things that happen but in this one I cringed a bit about going back to the book knowing/suspecting that bad things were about to occur at any moment.

Great Rom Thrill!

I found this in my recommendations and decided to give it a try and was shock to find out that Orcusauditory is in it! so that's a plus! But this story is very well written, had me feeling all the emotions when the trial was going and even on the suspense scenes! :)

worth every penny/coin!
