About this listen

From the New York Times best-selling authors of the Masters of Ménage series...

They are the Perfect Gentlemen of Creighton Academy: Privileged, wealthy, powerful friends with a wild side. But a deadly scandal is about to tear down their seemingly ideal lives.

Maddox Crawford’s sudden death sends Gabriel Bond reeling. Not only is he burying his best friend, he’s cleaning up Mad’s messes, including his troubled company. Grieving and restless, Gabe escapes his worries in the arms of a beautiful stranger. But his mind-blowing one-night stand is about to come back to haunt him...

Mad groomed Everly Parker to be a rising star in the executive world. Now that he’s gone, she’s sure her job will be the next thing she mourns, especially after she ends up accidentally sleeping with her new boss. If only their night together hadn’t been so incendiary - or Gabe like a fantasy come true...

As Gabe and Everly struggle to control the heated tension between them, they discover evidence that Mad’s death was no accident. Now they must bank their smoldering passions to hunt down a murderer - because Mad had secrets that someone was willing to kill for, and Gabe or Everly could be the next target...

Great Narration

I had come to tire of some of Shayla blacks books that she had put out recently so this was a very nice change of pace. I enjoyed this book very much it has her usual sultry aspect to it with a mystery twist, it was a great listen.

EROTIC. INTELLIGENT. HOT. MYSTERY. THRILLER....

I’ve made it as clear as Baccarat, that I love all things Erotic , and I love to read. This offering was far more cerebral than the norm. It was not a rollercoaster plot twist at the very end but throughout, from start to finish. I’m not one to review a book by telling everything about the book, teetering on a spoiler alert. Although, I will say this, because it’s very important to real women, real men, and serious readers…the female lead character, “Everly,” (how cool a name is that!?!) isn’t a weak whiny girlie-woman. She holds her own…I really love that. A woman can be submissive, without having had a lobotomy…the proof’s in this book. Wait…Everly, isn’t all that submissive…except, where it counts. There are enough fine Alpha males in here, to remake all of the Greek Gods.
The authors, and the narrator are superb. There are so many books that I cannot read, audibly, because of a narrator more suited to narrating the ranch and farm report, than romance/erotica. That’s where my burgeoning kindle comes in handy, only thing is I can’t read it as I drive, get a mani-pedi, shop…you get the picture. I’ve been read to since childhood, so setting the timer on the audible app, and falling asleep to a hot read, is a natural. If I really like a book I’ll read it more than once, anyway. At the very least, I’ll back up in the chapter to wear it’s familiar and go from there, the next time I queue it up. This book is exactly, what it claims to be, so if you've mistaken it for a hymnal or a prayer book, fair chance, this aint it. The sex is great, of course, but this book isn’t solely dependent on it. So when they do tear into each other, I was like, "Hey, get up from there and solve this s__t!" HA! No I didn't.
Not only did I love this erotic thriller...I would trust anything offered by this collaboration.
Cheers
Vy

great balance of suspense and romance

Kaleo Griffith narrated the book very well. The book was a very good balance of suspense story and romance. It didn't stall anywhere, moved along at a great pace, and kept me looking forward to the next time I could listen. Looking forward to starting the next book.

I love Gabe, no I don't, but I do, but I can't, I

The story is about extremely strong wealthy men... and accordingly a strong intelligent woman. This was a great change. Love the fact that Everly had brains!! Having said that, she would make dumb decisions at times. She was a bit too wishy washy for me. Back and forth... wouldn't let Gabe speak and would come to the wrong conclusions. I hate it when there are misunderstandings... that could have been easily prevented. At times, I wanted to stop the book so I could grab Everly's shoulders and shake her really hard!! Does she love him? Does she not? But she can't? But she wants to? OMG!!! My head is spinning.

I miss Maddox. He dies in the very beginning. No spoiler alerts there. However, he seemed like a great character who we will never know about. RIP Maddox.

I do love the way Gabe and Everly's chemistry is developed into love. The scenes were very hot! Over-the-top. Loved them. And Kaleo made them very erotic. Perfect narration!

The story line is good and it ended as predicted. I'm not sure if I'm going to grab the next book in the series. I'm assuming it will be the same as this one with different names.

Enjoy!

great story. narration good except female voices a

I really like the new series and think there us a lot of potential. The narration was good but he just doesn't do a good female voice. Sounds just the same as in Dark Fire by Christine Feehan and does disappoint a bit when listening but overall a good listen. mature content. nice steamy sex scenes and romance and mystery was good. look forward to next book. would suggest the narrator just work on a good female voice, even if only one thru out.

Couldn't put this down

I loved this book and lost sleep over it.
I listened to the sample of this book and the narrator had me immediately!
I wanted to smack Gabe more than once for being pig headed.
I've already bought the second book in this series and can't wait for more!

Lots of action both in bed and out

Fast paced 1st book in series but sad to start with kids and then kill one off, especially as he was to be a father and probably broke up with his pregnant girl to protect her. Maybe the 5th or 6th book will be Mad not really dead and reunited with his buddies, his baby momma, and his newly discovered half sister.
