About this listen

Raven Monroe

I think I always knew I was going to die young. Like I had this… silent, invisible clock ticking down to my final moments plastered above my head. Maybe that’s why I was so reckless, crazy. Why I sought after adventure. Why nothing scared me… Except, there was always this… feeling I couldn’t shake that something was in the darkest parts of every corner, under every bed, closet, or room, like a ghost watching me. Waiting to take me. My own, personal reaper.

But it was always only during a lightning storm that I could see the outline of my reaper. No scythe. Just a tall, faceless shadow in a hood, staring at me in the dark…

That was the thing though. It was never the storm itself that scared me. Never the loud booming of thunder. Never the howling wind or the way the windows rattled. Never the sound of rain pounding against said windows. It was just that goddamn lightning.

Seems fitting, I suppose, that I’d die before my twentieth birthday during a freak lightning storm of the century… I just always thought I’d die while doing something dangerous—F*ck it. I’d even take a boring death like simply dying in my sleep from a brain aneurysm or even an early onset heart attack.

Anything.

I’d take any other way other than this...

I absolutely love this book. The narration was superb. I’ve listen to it twice with plans on listening again. If you like crazy, possessive MMC, spice, with plots and twist; then this is a must read (audio is the best).

If you are highly sensitive, please check you trigger warnings.

Chef’s kiss😍

PLEASE CHECK ALL OF THE TW'S BEFORE GOING INTO THIS! That being said, this was a five star listen for me and the narrators out did themselves. I was going to go into this blind like I normally do, however the more reviews I looked at I decided to check out the trigger warnings. There was nothing that I could not handle but this is definitely not going to be for everyone. If you are a dark/very dark romance reader/listener and you can handle Rina Kent's Legacy of God's series, or Amo Jones then you will probably be fine. This is very violent from beginning to end, has a secret society, revenge for the FMC (for all that was done to her) and one other, the ones that end up paying the price very much deserve what they get as this is totally fiction. There is also a lot of steam and ends up as a why choose.

I honestly cannot wait for Stutter to come in audio! this story had me hooked from chapter one. it has all the right kinds of spice and the plot just snares you. Heather and Joe are perfect, my ear holes are on fiiiiire! if you questioning it, don't, take the plunge, you'll be happy you did!

I.WANT.MORE!
