Good listen until the ending

Revisado: 06-29-24

I liked the story overall. Typical romantic suspense story but i hate it when the characters do dumb things at the end. In what world would you not wait for the actual cops to confront a killer? I guess author’s do this dramatic effect. It’s just unrealistic and makes the characters seem dumb.

Trying to like this story

Revisado: 05-02-24

I’ve read all of Karen Rose’s books (some multiple times). Kit and Sam’s story is by far my least favorite. I like the fast paced, more intense relationships in her other books. This feels like a school yard romance. The characters spend little to no time together which makes for a lackluster love story. The procedural part is as good as other stories but what usually makes these stories standout are that both the romance and the police procedural are both well done. Kit is annoying and acts like a child. It’s unattractive. It’s hard to get past these overly altruistic characters when there’s no chemistry between them. If there’s a 3rd book, I hope it resembles her other work more closely.

Not good

Revisado: 10-11-23

The main female character was an idiot in too many ways to count. This was not a good read. The narrator sounds like the person who voices Brain, from Pinky and the Brain. There was clearly no research into organized crime. It was a bad detective story and an absurd romantic plot. I do not recommend. Well maybe if you’re looking for a nonsensical story.

All over the place

Revisado: 09-14-23

This had potential that was completely lost in annoying characters and miscommunication. This should not have been labeled as romantic suspense. There was nothing suspenseful about unless you count characters that make rash and terrible decisions. It was way too long for situations to be resolved. The whole time spent with the male character’s family in Florida was quite ridiculous. Perhaps I made it to the end to understand the point of this very weird story.

One of my favorite stories!

Revisado: 05-17-23

I love the character development (both protagonists and antagonists). Karen Rose takes the time to help the reader understand each character’s perspective. I love that I get to revisit characters from other stories as well. The romance and suspense are nicely intertwined. This is a go to when I’m between books.

My least favorite Karen Rose book

Revisado: 03-14-23

This is my least favorite Karen Rose book (and I’ve read them all). I’ve never experienced such lack luster romance between the characters. I’ve also listened to this narrator before and she usually does a wayyyyy better job with the male protagonist. She uses the voice she usually uses for her teenager characters (she’s narrated other Rose books). It made for an unattractive protagonist. I’m very disappointed in this one.

Really liked this book

Revisado: 09-19-21

Although there were some plot lines that I could see coming, I loved how it came together. I wanted to keep listening to hear more. I love the heroine. She is fierce and the definition of a survivor. This book is not for the squeamish. It is well written and enthralling. I’m looking forward to reading more by this author.
