About this listen
He collected beautiful things. Rare things. Ripped them out of their natural environment and preserved them in all of their dead splendor.
The problem was I wasn't beautiful. I was all of the hideous and ugly realities of the world packaged into one broken human being.
He came to kill me. That was his business. Death.
He ripped me out of my natural environment, the prison I'd created, and locked me away with all of his beautiful dead things. I hated him. I still hate him.
But if I was given the choice and the ability to leave this cage, come back to life - I'd stay dead. In all of my hideous splendor.
Because my murderer can only possess dead things. And I can only be possessed by someone more broken and ugly than me.

I loathe Alastor Shaw. The city of San Francisco thinks we’re rival artists. In truth, we’re predators battling for hunting ground. We never chased the same prey. Until the night we both laid eyes on Mara Eldritch. Shaw wants to use her as a pawn in his twisted game. I’m fixated on her for a different reason.

I never thought I'd step foot in Royal Manor again. But four years later, here I am...back to finish my senior year at Royal Hearts Academy. And forced to face Jace Covington. My first friend. First crush. First kiss. The one I left behind. Only - he isn't the same boy I gave my heart to. This new Jace is as cruel as he is gorgeous. And he's determined to make my life a living hell. Along with the rest of his glorified family and crew of tyrants. They expect me to worship the ground they walk on like everyone else, but I'd rather eat dirt.

Story
Triple Falls wasn’t at all what it seemed, nor were the men that swept me under their wing. But in order to keep them, I had to be in on their secrets. Secrets that cost us everything to keep. That’s the novelty of fiction versus reality. You can’t re-live your own love story, because by the time you’ve realized you’re living it, it’s over. At least that was the case for me and the men I trusted my foolish heart to. Looking back, I’m convinced I willed my story into existence, due to my illness, and all were punished.

I didn't mean to star in a sex tape, okay? It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds. It just happened. Now, my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston's nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan. The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family's oil company. Little does she know, that's not the only pipe I'll be laying....

Virtuous. Kind. Patient. These were words never associated with Gabriel Saint. He was a monster. The devil that haunted the city of Redhill. And he had found me. I managed to hide for a while from my past, present, and future. But I should have known they’d come looking. After all, I had the heir of the city in my arms, and if I know anything about the ruling crime family of this city, it’s that family comes before all else. When Gabriel comes for me, I fight but know it’s useless, and when he forces me to be his wife, I vow to make his life as miserable as possible.

3 1/2 STARS
Forced marriage 💍
Agoraphobic heroine
Abusive relationship 💔
Unaliver
Hero/anti-hero is a k!ller for hire and collector of sorts. He’s sent to do a job but the heroine isn’t what he expected. He takes the heroine away from her safety and forces her to start living. I found it a bit repetitive and I didn’t feel the connection between the two MCs. I did like how he would k!ll anyone who would harm her and made her stronger even though his methods were questionable.

Wow!
This was a great story and great audible. The female lead is Elizabeth. She has been beaten down mentally and physically by her family and husband for many years. To a point where is ready to give up and die. And when the killer comes, Oliver/Luthian, she is ready. This is unusual for him because she doesnt beg for her life...she is ready and this shocks him, intrigues him and eventually, they fall in love. This story was deep, passionate and dark. When they first confessed their love for each other - OMG is was very dark, but so passionate. I love this book and now I am a fan of this author. The narrators - GREAT JOB. Loved them both. I hope there will be a part two involving the siblings. Can't wait.

Narrators carried the story.
The storyline had great potential, but then it froze. With the help of great narrators it did keep me intrigued enough to finish it. if you are looking for a psychological thriller this isn't for you. This is more of a dark romance with hints of psycho/mystery.
Full of possible triggers for some, so be cautious before reading/listening.

What did I just listen too???
This one is darker than dark. It was hard for me to conjure in my mind what the characters were actually saying because everything for the most part goes against “norms”. They spoke a language that was so foreign in concept it was difficult to follow.
Lots of blood play, constant talk about death. The MMC was really next level freaky and I’m not just talking about in the sheets, which by the way the sex was hot but mostly rough and dangerous to a certain extent.
Narrators were amazing and really carried this story. I would have definitely DNF this one if it wasn’t for them.
