Trouble

This book is amazing. It gives us an insight into the character's life and the abuse she endured. It also shows how people can heal but the long lasting impact abuse has stays.

Reformed Playboy + Abused Broken Heroine

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

Dual narrative, interesting twist but definitely had a dark vibe to it.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Dozer the dog!

Which character – as performed by Sean Crisden and Tatiana Sokolov – was your favorite?

Both equal however not my favorites. Their voices seem a bit old for these characters in this book.

Any additional comments?

Unfortunately, this book has a similar theme to many other books out right now. sudden reformed womanizer meets tortured abused broken heroine...

OK, Not Great

This was a fairly predictable book, would be a good beach read. I did not like Sean Crisden's women's voices. Tatiana Sokolov's voice sounds like another Audible narrator. I found the pace a bit slow at times, and moved the speed up to 1.25%.

Not as bad as other reviews make it seem but not Towle’s best

First off, I disagree with the other reviews hating on the main guy... he is a douche at first but that is the entire point of the evolution of his character. I love Sean Crisden, but I didn’t love Tatiana Sokolov’s performance - it’s too forced. Regardless, Towle’s other books (River Wild and the Hollywood books) are better... this one is kind of anticlimactic and throws a lot into one scenario that makes it almost too difficult to relate (SEMI-SPOILER: two deaths of wives, two abusive perpetrators, with the illnesses both main characters are experiencing...) and it was a tad predictable. Either way, don’t regret listening to it but will not listen to it again.

Dark, Sad, Sweet

How do those all work together? Don't know but they do! This is a great one, a stand alone which I don't always like simply because I really like to delve into the characters and know them but I feel like we did that in this book. We get an intimate look into the lives of both and really begin to love them. I really don't have anything negative to say, the narration was good, but not great. Did not distract from the story at all. Very good. The story moves pretty fast. I cried several times throughout and finished in one go. This would be a difficult one to put down so I'd say don't start right before bed :) Nice sexy scenes, nothing kinky in this one, the story line is what is dark and sad not the romance.

Not my favorite

I've been on a big Samantha Towle kick lately and just loving them all. This one, however, wasn't as good as the others in my opinion. I just didn't quite *feel* the connection in the romance in this one like I have in the others.

Why the DV?

Romance books are supposed to help you escape and this one begins with DV. Terrible. For now, I'm giving this one star for starting with stereotypical abuse and control. I'll update this review if I finish this book and the story line gets better and less predictable.
