Publisher's summary

From The New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Katie Reus, the second book in her sexy Serafina: Sin City Series...

I'm ready to move on. Please don't search for me. Please just let me go.

Ellie

The note on the kitchen table shatters Jay Wentworth's world into bits. Ellie is his lover, his soul mate, his best friend...she's the woman who stood by him through the aftermath of a horrible explosion, the woman he's planning to propose to. He'd do anything for her…except let her go. With his fierce protectiveness kicked into overdrive, he teams up with Ellie's Hotel Serafina boss, billionaire Wyatt Christiansen, to find her. Ellie is family at the casino and they take care of their own.

Ellie is devastated when her secret past finally catches up with her. It was stupid to think she could bury the mistakes of her youth and find happiness with a good man. Leaving Jay rips her heart to shreds, but it's the only way she can protect him from the dangerous people she once ran with. And deep down, she fears he'll never be able to forgive her for hiding her past from him.

The closer Jay gets to the truth about Ellie, the deeper he plunges into danger. He'll move heaven and earth to save her, but if she can't trust in Jay's love it might be too late for both of them.

Awesome!!

If you could sum up Sensual Surrender in three words, what would they be?

I want more!!

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved both Jay and Ellie, he is strong, protective and totally alpha male and Ellie is sweet, strong, and tries to do the right thing.

Which scene was your favorite?

I really don't have a favorite scene, I loved it all!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This book held my attention from the beginning, I couldn't wait to finish it so I could find out what happened next.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this book, I love all books by Katie Reus, I loved the audio version of this book as much as I did reading it. Ryan Hudson and Holly Fielding did a great job as a narrator. Ryan Hudson, was awesome! However, I wish that Holly Fielding would have talked a little faster, it seemed to me that she was talking r-e-a-l-l-y slow.

Surrender To Love

Ellie has found happiness. She loves her job and her lover, Jay. He is the best thing that has happened to her. Her life is perfect until she receives a threatening phone call from an ex-boyfriend. He demands that she help him steal from her employer and friend, Wyatt Christiansen. Ellie is trapped. What can she do? Is she strong enough to leave? Ellie and Jay complete each other. They are a passionate couple who need to be together. Their relationship is deeply sensual and very romantic. The suspense-filled plot and strong characters kept me riveted. I love that Katie included people that we've met before. It was like taking a trip back home to catch up with friends. The action is non-stop. I must admit that the ending took me by surprise. Katie Reus is a excellent writer. This story is skillful crafted and left me wanting more.

For me the audio version added to my enjoyment. Holly Fielding and Ryan Hudson added so much to the story with their narration. I felt like I was in the center of all the action.

This is a memorable story with the audio adding more depth and emotion to the action. I'm a fan of Katie Reus and of audio books.

Enjoyed this story. Great series!

What did you love best about Sensual Surrender?

Jay and Ellie have great chemistry in this story of trust, love, and family.

Which character – as performed by Holly Fielding and Ryan Hudson – was your favorite?

All of the characters that Ryan voices are wonderful. But Wyatt is definitely one of my favorites.

Any additional comments?

I love this series. Full of suspense, romance, and plot twists. Ryan Hudson's voice is so compelling and forceful. He masters these characters. While Holly Fielding is a good narrator, I did not connect with her version of the characters, especially her male characters.Overall, a highly recommended story and series.

Good story bad narration. REALLY BAD. IF YOU pay 10$ for a book I don't care if it just sounds. Anything else you better put some effort.

Sensual Surrender by Katie Reus

Sensual Surrender by Katie Reus

2nd book in the Sin City Serafina series. Can be read as a stand-alone romance but better if the first has been read since this has the same characters in the casino in Vegas, but the focus is on a different couple.

Ellie’s past has her wanting to distance herself from Jay and her boss Wyatt. But their soldier backgrounds and support instead turn the situation into a trap for the criminals

High heat and passion along with emotional commitment makes these men so sexy and strong. They step up to take care of the criminals and give to charity as well as wholly loving their heroine. Hero is a good word for them. I want to know men like this in real life.

I alternated between the ebook and audiobook. The audio was Narrated by Holly Fielding and Ryan Hudson who did a great job with the emotions and pace.

4.5. The heroine’s decision to run away was just too stupid.

Love Katie Reus's writing, and this delivers!!

I'm loving the Sin City series...and this audio book just delivered totally! What I'd call novella length it gives us a complete story with all the emotions & romance us lovers of the genre want, without compromising a thing for the shorter length.

It actually picks ups with the hero, Jay, and his heroine, Ellie, having been lovers for about a year. They're completly into one another ~ but Ellie has a past she's not exactly been keeping a secret from Jay, but that she's never bothered to share, either. And that past has come back to haunt her; in the form of an Ex from long ago who wants Ellie to either give him inside info from the Hotel Serafina ( where she's executive assistant for Wyat Christensen, the owner ) or he'll reveal all to not only Jay, but her boss, Wyatt.

In an attempt to shield everyone from repercussions of her past Ellie tries to just dissapear ~ but things don't go quite as planned, and she's got a lot of shoring up w/ Jay after her little stunt and not trusting him.

LOVED it! The narration is excellent ~ it has both a man and a woman narrating, alternating POV from chapter to chapter, and it SO worked for me! I loved that she didn't try to build the whole relationship in the novella, but gave us background for the players, and built us up to where they currently are in their relationship.

I'm such a fan of Katie's books, and love that she continues to write books I not only love, but that as soon as I'm done I'm off to search out the next in the series.

Good , but not great!

I didn't like this one as much as I enjoyed book 1. The heroine left! WTF!!! Why leave when you have all these alpha men surrounding you for protection... I mean... I get it..she wanted to protect her guy...but c'mon!

Anyway.. this was still a good listen. The smexy time was simply great... the action and adventure was not half bad either.

Narration... well I hate dual narration...but other than that.. I was ok... nothing to complain about...

Worth a credit or sale!

REVIEW PROVIDED BY: Kelly
REVIEW:
What is one to do when the wolves coming knocking on your door? If you are Ellie, you run. You run and leave everyone you care about behind. But that was the wrong move. Because Jay is not going to let Ellie run.

Another great story from Katie. Sensual Surrender has a quick start and just keeps going until the very end. Jay and Ellie are a great couple. Although I wish that Ellie would have confided in Jay before she ran. But that was part of what made this story so good.

I had the pleasure of reading this book before I received this audio version. I am glad to say that I did. While I loved the story of Jay and Ellie, I didn’t not like this audio version of the story.

It was not the story itself by any means. The story that Katie wrote was still just as good. I just did not care for Holly Fielding as a narrator. Ryan Hudson again did an amazing job! But with Ms. Feilding her reading style was too slow and withdrawn for me. It. Felt. Like. She. Was. Read. Each. Word. As. It’s. Own. Sentence. My other issue was the voices of the character. They just didn’t fit the voice that I had in my head.

I am sorry to say that I will not listen to any books narrated by Ms. Fielding in the future.

I received a complimentary audio copy of the book from Katie Reus & Audible in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and not a paid review.

A good story in this sexy series

This audiobook is book 2 of the Serafina Sin City series by this talented author.
This one belongs to Ellie and Jay. Ellie is the PA for successful millionaire Wyatt Christensen and Jay is his lead bodyguard.
They have been together for a year and are totally in love. Jay is ready to propose , when he gets home to find a goodbye letter from Ellie. Ellie has left him and her job because someone from her past is after her and will harm anyone close to her. She refuses to have them hurt.
But when her boss and Jay have her followed and rescue her in her first attempt to solve her problems, they discover her secrets. Needless to say, Jay was NOT a happy camper.
It’s a story filled with intrigue, bad guys, hunky good guys, sex and romance.
A good story in this sexy series.
I was gifted this audiobook. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
