Sexy, alluring, ruthless, and oh so complicated.

West Moseley is known as the "charming" Dark Dweller. With his cheeky grin and southern drawl, he can charm anyone, especially women. And does.

But after being held prisoner and tortured by the cruel Seelie Queen, West's past comes back to haunt him. His memories of a tragic event and the truth of what happened on the Light side goes deeper than anyone realizes. Things he wants no one to know about.

Struggling with his own demons, he battles the very essence of what he is - a Dark Dweller - a terrifying beast from the Otherworld designed to hunt and kill.

When the Unseelie King sends him to Ireland to uncover a dangerous artifact, West's entire world takes a dangerous turn.

When a treasure lands in his hands, one he never suspected, nor wanted, he learns one crucial thing: you don't steal from the Demon King...not if you want to live.

West is a spin-off of the Darkness Series. It is a standalone adult urban fantasy romance, but it would greatly benefit the listener to start with the Darkness Series (1-4) first. West contains storylines, world building, and spoilers from previous audiobooks and characters. It's highly recommended starting with Darkness of Light (Book One).

Sexual content, language, alcohol, violence, death, and other mature content intended for listeners 17 and older.

I was so excited for West's story after getting small glimpses of him in the Darkness series, I was even more excited because Aaron Shedlock was the narrator. West was exactly what I thought he would be and Aaron brings him to life and makes him even more intriguing than her was in Darkness.

I loved that West's story is about healing and finding your way again. West and Rez both have a past that they need to overcome. Together they have a job to do but they find along the way is even better. This book has all the elements of the Darkness Series and some visiting characters too! The way it ended left me wondering if West and Rez will have another book, if so YAY!!!

The narration was PERFECT! Aaron has that deep gravely voice that was exactly West, add in the touch of a southern accent and DANG!! Oh and there is also an Irish accent...WOW! He really does a lot of great voices for all the different types of Fae too. Couldn't have made a better choice when picking the narrator.

Great Story and Perfect Narration!

I chose to listen to this book because of the narrator. The author is new to me and, thus, I have not listened to the first four books in the Darkness series - my mistake. I decided to listen to West and if I couldn’t understand it, I would stop and go listen to the first four books. I had no problem getting into the book, enjoying the story, the characters, however, I think I would’ve enjoyed it much more if I had listened to the other books first. I now intend to listen to the entire series in order and listen to West again once I get to it chronologically. That said, I already really love this book. It’s full of action, magic, drama, romance, intrigue, everything you need to keep you coming back for more. As I stated previously, I listened to this book because of the narrator; Aaron Shedlock is one of my favorite narrators and, like all of his other performances, this one is nothing short of brilliant.

Great listen...probably even better if listened to in order....

The Narrator did a great job with the execution of this story. I really felt every emotion and the voice fit the characters so well. The story itself was even better. I’m an addict.

Great Audio and story

This was my least favorite book in this series which really bummed me out because I love WEST. It just felt so repetitive, the same thing kept happening, he kept on being attacked, he kept on getting angry, his beast wouldn’t come out, he would get hurt, others with him got hurt, he could not defend anyone. It just took so long to get to the action part of the book, I understand the whole slow burn romance part that’s fine but it just took so long. And then what happens at the end of the story Lars becomes a complete and total jerk, Then the end predicts what everyone thought was going to happen is about to happen even though he swore he wouldn’t do anything to Kennedy. Lars is getting just as bad as Aneira was.

Not my favorite

As I worked my way through the first 4 book of this series, I saw in other reviews that a lot of people got excited when they learned that West would be getting his own book; it seemed like he was a fan-favorite.

I just have to say, besides being the guy locked in the dungeon for a large part of the series, I couldn’t for the life of me remember where or when he had actually been introduced! So jumping into this book, I was hoping to learn more about him, and why he is so loved.

Let me just tell you, this book turned out to be my favorite of the series. Maybe it’s because there’s a fresh couple, a fresh setting, or maybe I just really enjoyed these characters.

Both West and Rez have experienced extreme trauma in their past, and both are dealing with it in different ways.

I loved coming along on the adventure, and also witnessing these two characters getting to know one another, and growing closer as the book progressed. The epilogue introduced a new quest for our MMC, so hopefully this isn’t the last we see of West.

I’ve been listening to these on audiobook, and I missed mentioning how much I enjoyed Michelle Sparks on the last 4 books. I thought she did a great job, especially with the pixies.

Since the POV switched to West for this one, we also got a new narrator: Aaron Shedlock. I though he did an admirable job with both southern and irish accents and ALMOST pronounced Aisling right! (That was one thing that bothered me over the last 4 books; it was pronounced incorrectly each time it was mentioned! But that’s just because i’m a snob! 😘)

Typical for me I read the first book in the series then the last. I’m so hooked now I need to go back and read the middle three books then move to the Lightness Saga series

The narrators voice and accent truly brought West to life and West’s favorite term of endearment (Darlin) was perfection for a man raised in the South.
That alone had me swooning for West.

Rez…classy, confident, insightful and stunningly beautiful is the perfect partner for West. I loved her character. She stood by West through thick and thin.

West is a dark dweller and Rez is a siren.
I’m not going to give spoilers. You definitely need to read this series!

Book 1 - Darkness of Light
Book 2 - Fire In The Darkness
Book 3 - Dwellers Of Darkness
Book 4 - Blood Beyond Darkness
Book 5 - West

Now go grab you a book and fall in love with @staceymariebrown and her books.

Wow Just Wow! I read this book when it released last year and I patiently waited for it to be released on audio. OMG it was so worth the wait.

The story continues with West after the two worlds merge. West is left broken and full of secrets. Lars decides to send him on a mission with Rez to recover an ancient artifact. The journey of the story of discovery is unmatched. Not just the things they learn on the surface, but the shocking things brought to light from their pasts.

Aaron Shedlock delivers a powerful performance in West. I've listened to him before in other genres, but this book allowed him to delve deep into his bag of tricks. He is so talented and I could not be happier with him as the narrator. He performed each character to perfection. From the humor and slow and sexy drawl of West, Rez's confidence and snark, to Lars's commanding tone. And oh let's not forget the Irish accents!!!!!!!!!

This is a MUST listen, but be mindful, it is book 10 in the series. I recommend listening in order.

Ten Glorious Stars!
