Haven’t made it through the book

Revisado: 11-07-23

I’ve had this in my library for nearly a month and haven’t made it past chapter 6. The problem isn’t the narration or the story but every time I go to start it I see the cover art and for some reason in my mind it looks like a highly constipated guy trying to work it out. When that is the first thing you see every time you try to start the story it’s hard to get into it. It’s disappointing when I really liked the other books in the series. I guess this is the first time I really realized how important cover art is. After I realized what my mental block was against this book, I would strongly suggest to any authors choosing cover art: Avoid anything that looks like someone in the middle of a difficult dump. It’s literally the one thing you see before hitting play. I’m intending this as constructive criticism not just for these authors but others as well. It’s at times like this I wish there were “conversational” reviews where a response might change my mental picture.

Hate to say anything negative

Revisado: 09-13-23

I’m visually impaired so I hate to complain about a narrator. But this sounds like a reading at the library I still rated high stars because I need the audio but I got the feeling the narration was only to be paid. Apologies for honesty but I am sensitive to indifference

I liked but didn’t love

Revisado: 09-13-23

If you are looking for an extension of Kelly and Blue, this is a great substitute. Unfortunately the more the series goes on the more ridiculous the Kelly component becomes. By the end of the series Rain is a flippant ass that I no longer have patience for. I rated it high because the story is solid but I wish I could take away 3 stars for the deterioration of Rains character. In the end he’s so flippant …. Aggravating. But there is a good and solid story. In the end I took away stars because the main ghost character, who I truly appreciated, that resolution wasn’t played out. He deserved a full resolution. Not the disappointment of 15 second he arrives when summoned and an article was written.

Overall an OK book

Revisado: 06-05-23

For full disclosure, I read other’s reviews before I purchased this and agree with some and disagree with others and I am from Tennessee. My initial thought was to give this book a 2 or 3 star rating, but I figured that wouldn’t be fair because typical audience is probably not southern and wouldn’t catch typical southern nuance that is completely missing. As far as narration, I’ve become completely spoiled by the likes of Sean Crisden, Alexander Sendece (hope spelling is correct), Iggy Toma, and Shannon Gunn. Every narrator (voice actor, actor, performer… is there a consensus on how to refer to them?) has a few mistakes and I always wonder if it’s a typo on the page but they have to stay true to what’s written or mispronounced. In this situation, the story would have hugely benefited from a southern narrator. As someone visually impaired, I won’t complain about it. Glad the book was available as an audio book. And if you listen to copyright info, most things in this genre are self published so the author is having to fund the audio version making me add two stars. If I haven’t lost you already in this review my biggest complaint is the you can sacrifice for me but I should sacrifice for you and both people fearing resentment. This weekend I listened to 2 books like that and it’s annoying that something that would be a 5 minute conversation turns into chapters if 13 year old angst. That age group isn’t supposed to buy these titles. I’ll continue with the series. Hope I made it clear I did not get a free copy of the audible and I did pay for my own copy.

It took a second listen to know why I dislike

Revisado: 02-22-23

Author has perfect previous books but this went past . If you were there from the time of “Fake Out” this doesn’t compare

The narrator’s tried.

Revisado: 01-29-23

I really wanted to love this book and thought I would but 90 minutes in and I didn’t really like any of the characters and wasn’t engaging in the storyline. And that’s with repeating 2 chapters. Had to return this book. Absolutely nothing against Jacob Morgan or Teddy Hamilton. They really did try to bring this story to life but I just couldn’t get into it. This is only my opinion and a single point of view.

Huge disappointment

Revisado: 11-07-22

In the description of this book it does say “firm hand” and I took that to mean tough love. But no. It’s a ridiculous spanking/light BDSM trope. And I do mean ridiculous. Wish audible had key words so I could have avoided buying this book.

3rd try and I still can’t make it through.

Revisado: 10-24-22

I make the mistake of buying this full set. Made every excuse in the world for why I couldn’t relate. Not in the right mind space, maybe narrator is not so great, a character I can’t identify with…. None of the above. Because I actually bought this and it’s in my library I’ve tried 3 times and I always quit between book 2 and 3 and never happy I even went that far. I haven’t pinpointed the exact problem but I wish I hadn’t bought this set.

Why?

Revisado: 06-04-22

Why on earth does it seem every m4m book written by women have to include elements of bondage? Literally the last 14 books have had it. Are you all thinking everyone is in to “50 Shades” nonsense? I’ve been with the same person for 27 years and can say there are much more interesting ways to keep the spark plug sparking. Truly wishing there was a filter to screen out what you are sick of. Utterly over the BDSM/ bondage.

The description for this book is misleading.

Revisado: 05-31-22

If I’d known this book would literally take a dive into the paranormal, I’d have been less ruthless with rating. The way the description reads I was expecting a haunted by memories tale. I was not expecting “The Exorcist” with gay leads. If I’d known where this was going ahead of time with the dive into paranormal, I would have been sure I I was in the right mindset before listening. Performance got a higher rating because that’s the only reason I listened to the end. I took one star off for 2 reasons. 1- took me 2 chapters to get into the British accent and 2- seems like the voice for side characters changes. As someone who is visually impaired and can’t actually read the books myself, I’m extremely grateful to nearly anyone who will put a voice to books and I’ll definitely search for more titles narrated by the same person. (As if audible makes that easy) Bottom line is… it was an interesting story but know what you are getting into before you start. I listened because it was included with my membership but I won’t include it in my permanent library. Hope this is helpful.
