About this listen
One, two, he’s coming for you.
Three, four, better run some more.
I never would have accepted his help if I’d known what he’d do.
When the stranger who got me out of a mess in Springwood turns the town into a slaughterhouse in my name, I do the only thing I can do.
I run.
Not far enough, though, because I can feel him in Akron, looking for me. But he wants to take me home, and I can’t go back. Not after what he did.
Especially when I know that more than anything, he wants me home with him.
But when his words betray how he really feels, instead of violence from the monster of Springwood I get something completely different. Will I be tricked into going home after all?
Or will he drag me away, kicking and screaming, with his claws so deep I’ll never be free?
Vicious is a contemporary dark romance stand-alone set in the Pleasure & Prey universe. This is an MF romance. Please see author’s note at the front of the book using Amazon's "look inside the book" feature for a full list of content warnings.

Story
I'm careful not to show my face, so why do I feel like I'm being watched when the camera turns off? No one should know who I am or be able to find me, but they do—and things quickly spiral out of control. The two unhinged men who fill my cam chat with all the deplorable things they want to do to me are closer than I think. To them, I'm just a pretty little tease. Their obsession turns into something so much more than I bargained for. I should have run away when they found me because now it's too late for me to be anything except theirs.

Story
Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

I love flowers. Being a botanist has always been my dream, but life got in the way—and, nowadays, I have a job at the flower shop near my crummy apartment. So that's something, right? Maybe it's not in the best neighborhood, but it's a bright spot in a dirty city, and at least there are usually cops around. I've noticed one in particular lately, keeping an eye on the shop.

From a poor underground street fighter, I rose to fame as the world heavyweight boxing champion. No one knew I was also a monster who hunted in the shadows. Trapped in the mafia until my debts were paid. A simple deal held my freedom—unify my belts. It seemed simple until an enchanting British firecracker landed on my lap, knocking me sideways. Wanting her was dangerous for us both, but I took her anyway. Leaving me with the choice, fight for my freedom or hers. When the truth is unmasked, could she still love me? Would love be enough to battle our demons and come out on top?

I’m Amethyst Lily Tatum, and up until this point, I’d managed to maintain a fairly low-key life. I’m what you would call a socially unacceptable hot mess. Instead of partying, I’m skating, flipping ollies over guys who loved to underestimate me. Then I started college, met a wild girl who I would soon call my best-friend, had my first drunk one-night stand, left my phone at his house, and then, when I finally managed to meet my mom’s new boyfriend, I found out that my one-night stand was now my new stepbrother.

And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

He’s fixed on making this a Christmas Evie will remember forever. If she gives him a chance.

Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

No one should know who I am or be able to find me, but they do—and things quickly spiral out of control. The two unhinged men who fill my cam chat with all the deplorable things they want to do to me are closer than I think. To them, I'm just a pretty little tease. Their obsession turns into something so much more than I bargained for. I should have run away when they found me because now it's too late for me to be anything except theirs.

Vicious
Vicious is the third book in the Pleasure and Play series. I have enjoyed every book so far in this series, so I was super excited to get my hands on this one. This book is about Quinn and Gabriel and is told from Quinn's point of view.
This book was hilarious. I was laughing so much. The banter between these two characters was great. Gabriel is Quinn's therapist, but when something happens Quinn wants to get away from Gabriel.
However, Gabriel keeps showing up in her life wherever she goes. Quinn is scared of Gabriel, but Gabriel has deep feelings and ownership of Quinn.
Can Quinn get past what Gabriel has done and will still do? Will Gabriel get his happy ending with Quinn? I loved every moment of this book, and can't wait to listen to the next one.

A Dark Contemporary Romance
Vicious by AJ Merlin is a contemporary dark romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Allyson Voller. This is the third book in the Pleasure and Prey series and can be read as standalone.
I love AJ's books. I was pulled in from the first chapter and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. I really enjoyed the relationship between Gabriel and Quinn.
I can't wait for the next book in the series Delicious to be released on January 31, 2024.
Allyson did an amazing job on the narration. She really knows how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of her work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you like dark romances, stalker romances, serial killer romances, or romantic suspense.

Vicious
This is the third book in the Pleasure and Prey series. This book is about Gabriel (Freddy) and Quinn. At the end of book two we got a glimpse of Gabriel. I wish it would have tied back into the storyline with the other characters that we have already met in the series. This one can definitely be read as a standalone. I liked that Quinn has a dark side just like Gabriel. This book may have triggers for some. I truly enjoy AJ Merlin’s books. Allyson Voller did a great job narrating this book.

Fantastic!
4/5 ⭐
4/5 🌶
5/5 🎧
The Pleasure and Prey novels are some of my favorite guilty pleasure books. They are short, not so sweet and oh so spicy. Vicious had a little mystery aspect to it too which I thoroughly enjoyed. I really loved Quinn, she was smart and capable and it took her a while to fall for Gabriel which made me love her more. It was kinda a slow burn compared to the other books in the series, but when we got there it was out of this world HOT. The somno scene was absolutely E V E R Y T H I N G, just so so good.
I thought Allyson Voller did a fantastic job narrating Quinn and the rest of the cast. I loved the audiobook and will definitely be listening again.

I’ve never read anything like this before.
There were parts of this book that actually had me lol
My only complaint is that there were a few parts I had a hard time distinguishing when it was a male pov.

3 star listen
I was expecting more from Gabe I thought he was meant to be the deadliest? I don’t know where that came from. In this one we don’t hear from the others and their partners and we don’t hear of much killing actually haha
There’s quite a bit over the three novels that has come about but not concluded upon so fingers crossed there will be a forth novel to wrap it up.

This book kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.
I love the banter between Gabriel and Quinn. How he was always inserting himself in her life.
This story is dark, gruesome and funny at times.
I'm looking forward to listening to more in this series.
Allyson Voller narration is very good, bringing this story to life.
