Story
Farleigh is just an orphanage–at least, that's what the church would have the people believe. But beautiful orphans Nox and fae-touched Amaris know better. They are commodities for sale, available for purchase by the highest bidder. So when the madame of a notorious brothel in a far-off city offers a king's ransom to purchase Amaris, Nox ends up taking her place—while Amaris is drawn away to the mountains, home of mysterious assassins.

Love in its purest form
Reviewed: 02-08-2024
I loved reading about two women coming into their own power, in ways that they did not expect. The love, loyalty, and friendship between Nox and Amaris is evident in every action and reaction to the vsrious challenges that are thrown at each of them.
I have already purchased book 2, and am loading it up to play next.

Story
Moving to New York City is supposed to prove cynical twenty-three-year-old August right: magic and cinematic love stories don’t exist. But then, she meets this gorgeous girl on the train. Jane. Dazzling, charming, mysterious, impossible Jane. Jane with her rough edges and swoopy hair and soft smile. August’s subway crush becomes the best part of her day, but pretty soon she discovers there’s one big problem: Jane is displaced in time from the 1970s, and August is going to have to use everything she tried to leave in her own past to help Jane.

It never ends
Reviewed: 17-01-2024
Every time I felt like the story was coming to the end, I would check the timer and see I still had at at least an hour left of listening time. Every plot hole was filled, every angle explored, and every expectation exceeded. This is a good book.

Story
Brooke Chapman-Powell takes her position as the Earl of Englefield’s personal secretary very seriously. This job is what keeps her sister in the university for the deaf and the town from completely shutting down. But the earl is dying, and they have only one hope: an American, from some place called Salvation, Virginia. Now she will have to teach the in-all-likelihood-uncouth-and-lazy half American how to be a proper earl if they hope to save the village. God help them all.

I adore Avery Flynn as an Author and she's had some pretty fantastic Narrators for her books on Audible. I was especially impressed with the subtle ways in which John Lane showed Brooke's character through her accent. If you listen carefully, it changes depending on how she is feeling throughout the book. Clipped and proper when in control, but her Yorkshire accent slips though slightly. I loved how immersive it made the story.
This book in particular I was a little sceptical about at first. I wasn't entirely sure what to expect because I have been reading Avery Flynn's Ice Knights series, and The Hartigan's series. This was different. The essence of a Flynn book was still there in her characters though. They all had a stock character stereotype, they all broke that stereotype and became fully fleshed out characters that could 100% exist in the real world. The side characters were more than just plot devices, they grounded the main characters in the "world" Flynn was cresting.
5/5 Stars.

Story
Moving in with my half-brother Xander, I had no idea what to expect. But nothing could have prepared me for this. My brother's friends are wild, protective, secretive, always around. And drop dead gorgeous. Out of all of them, there's something about Reid Knox. Brooding, temperamental, guarded... And I want him more than anything I have ever wanted in my life.

Unortunately this book appears to be tje authors self-indulgent wish fulfilment. I forced myself through 12 chapters waiting for a plot line that doesnt seem to actually exist. DNF

Story
Putting a woman on her knees before me is what really makes my cock hard. I f**k with dominant force and absolute control. I demand complete surrender from my conquests. Savage man, loner, warrior... I am dangerous at my core. I have lived amidst the untamed wild of the rainforest, in a society that reveres me and where every woman falls before me in subjugation. Now I've been discovered. Forced to return to a world that I have forgotten about and to a culture that is only vaguely familiar to my senses.

Maybe it's just my ADHD but...
Reviewed: 09-04-2021
I felt like Kristen Leigh narrates too slow for the book. In the preview alone she drags out the words so much that I was close to not even bothering but the other reviews made me give it a chance.
The sex scenes are hot, and get better as the story continues which is good, and I enjoyed the modern Tarzan-and-Jane-esque vibe the story held. The exploration of Zach's tribe was fleshed out enough to show the significance of it but his acclimatisation to the modern world barely had moments of non sexualised discovery. I know it is in the erotica section but given the length of the story I would have liked the time to be spent on that rather than the unnecessary side plots.
Lee Samuels has a nice deep voice that is perfect for Zach's dominating character but the two narrators had such different voices for secondary characters as well as each other it caused me to lose the immersion. There was also a background noise at times which (again it could be my adhd) was distracting.

Studio Ghibli made me read this book
Reviewed: 10-09-2020
I loved it. The performance was fantastic as Kristin Atherton is able to give each character a distinct voice. The story flows on well and shows many different levels that the beloved movie did not (that's the way with movies I guess. Some of the aspects would ruin the immersion of Studio Ghibli) The ending wraps everything up with a ribbon on top and it is absolutely a story that my future children will read.
