Another excellent installment in this series

Revisado: 11-16-23

Similarly to other reviewers of this book, I will only say that the rooftop scene was a masterpiece. I've known for a long time that the author excels at crafting the fictional world, intricate characters, and authentic dialogues, but that scene...*chef's kiss*

Furthermore, in this book, we get to know additional characters more closely. In several instances, I didn't think I would come to like some of these characters and completely stop liking others. I wonder if the author will continue to mix things up in my head in the upcoming episodes :).

Overall, I highly recommend the series. The romantic thread is evident, although it unfolds very slowly, but the entire action happening around the characters and their colleagues is as gripping as the best Netflix series :)

brilliant

Revisado: 11-15-23

At the moment, I'm already on the 6th book in this series, and I still haven't changed my mind: this series is brilliant. However, don't buy the first book if you're trying to save money – I already know that a significant expense awaits me for all the subsequent volumes in this series :)

Liam DiCosimo never disappoints, but...

Revisado: 09-05-23

I love Tor Thom's voice, but darn, his flat intonation really annoys me. Moreover, all the voices he uses here are so similar that sometimes I don't know which character is speaking and when the dialogue ends and the character's thoughts begin.

So:
Liam DiCosimo - 5/5
Tor Thom - 3/5

So, Zane Daniels reading the role of Zercy...

Revisado: 08-27-23

I'll start by saying that if proposing to Zane Daniels was possible solely based on how brilliantly he sounds as Zercy, I'd totally do it.

I love this book, to be honest, much more than its first part. The plot is much more intricate and truly engaging. Congratulations to the author for creating such a vivid fictional world.

I'm eagerly awaiting the next volume (well, a few more to be precise :>)

Surprisingly good audiobook

Revisado: 08-22-23

There isn't too much dynamic action in this book; it's a typical romance focusing on the emotional lives of the main characters, and that's exactly what I needed today. I really enjoyed the relationship between the main characters, the evolution of their feelings, and their self-awareness throughout the entire length of the book. And even though I usually prefer more plot in a book, this book is just fine the way it is, it's very good.

Separate congratulations to the narrators, both did a great job.

I'm impressed by the narrator!

Revisado: 08-21-23

I read this book a few years ago, and since I like revisiting books I enjoyed, this time I went for the audiobook. I really enjoyed it, but to be honest I'm writing this brief review just to say that it's the first time I've listened to a book narrated by this narrator, and I almost fell off my chair when he started singing at the very beginning of the book and he did it well <3. Actually, I liked every aspect of the work done by the narrator in this audiobook: the voices he chose for the characters, the accents, and the dynamic dialogues.Congratulations!

Mixed feelings

Revisado: 07-16-23

I'm sorry to say this because I love both Tal Bauer and John Solo, but this audiobook was not good. Actually, from about a third of the book, I couldn't stand the main character whose thoughts were exhausting and on an emo-teenager level, and unfortunately, John Solo chose a very irritating voice for those thoughts (as well as for the dialogues with those thoughts). On top of that, the main character's daughter behaved more like a 9-year-old than a 16-year-old for most of the time.

At some point, I even wished the author would break the rules of romance and pair one of the characters with someone else entirely.

I still plan to read all of Tal Bauer's books and buy books narrated by John Solo, but I think this one might be better to read instead of listening to, and even then, I don't know if the book wouldn't end up in the pile called "didn't finish."

surprisingly good books (and hot as hell)

Revisado: 05-23-23

I approached this series with the expectation that it would be simple erotica with a plot. I wasn't entirely mistaken, but I didn't expect the plot to be so well-crafted and superbly written. I thought I would be rolling my eyes, but instead, I found myself truly immersed in the characters' lives. I couldn't find any faults in the quality of the prose either; these are genuinely good books.

As for the erotica aspect of the story, my husband called and asked for the author's address to send her flowers and a thank you note :).

Eastern European Charm?

Revisado: 05-23-23

In this installment of the series, I still greatly enjoy the voices chosen by Michael Lesley for the characters, although at times I felt like banging my head on the desk while listening to Edin's slight Eastern European accent. Perhaps it's because I myself am from Eastern Europe, and the mixture of Polish and Russian accent and the addition of magical "yes?" or "no?" at the end of sentences reminds me of the stereotypical portrayal of a Russian villain in Western movies. Nevertheless, this choice suited Edin.

As for the book itself, in my opinion, it's slightly weaker than the first book in the series, but still a very enjoyable read.
