Love Burns

Caged Love, Book 2

De: Mandi Beck

Narrado por: Wen Ross, Kai Kennicott

Love.

It's my name. It's what I fight for. It's Frankie.

I'm a fighter. Trained to always keep my cover. To anticipate, see the next hit coming. I never expected her past to come at us swinging like it has.

I'm about to take on two of the most important fights of my life. My girl and the belt. I know that I can handle it, that I'll never stop fighting. But what do you do when your life, your love is threatened and you can't take the hits - she has to? You shut your eyes and f--king pray like hell that she's strong enough, fierce enough to come out on top.

I went to war for her. Now it's her turn.

Heart Breaker

Would you listen to Love Burns again? Why?

In time, I might. After I've forgotten some of the details.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Indy. I loved her sense of humor.

What about Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott ’s performance did you like?

I loved how they could change their voices or accents enough that you could easily tell all the characters apart.

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

Yes. I cried for the last few chapters. I don't deal well with character death, especially when it's caused by a TSTL decision by the hero.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed this audiobook, but my heart broke near the end. Expect an ugly cry. I have to say that Ross and Kennicott are superb actors, and it really showed in the tear-jerker scenes.

✫✫ 4 Stars ✫✫

This book picks up right where book 2 ends... thank god!!! I loved that we got complete closure at the end of this book. It was sad, sweet, happy and dirty all together. Deacon grew on me more with this book for sure. I didn't dislike him in book 1 but he was just hard to love. Frankie was a little childish in the last book and towards the end of this book she really showed her strength! It was a little high in drama but I get it completely.

Love the narration <3

MY POOR ACHING HEART!!!!

Who was your favorite character and why?

I loved Deacon. Strong, demanding, yet soft and gentle for the woman he loved.

What does Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I have read a few ebooks before they did the narrations and let me tell you it is not the same at all. They bring so much emotion to the stories and you feel every word they utter. They make you laugh, they make you cry, they make you angry, yet the whole time you're routing for the hero and heroine to overcome their obstacles.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yes, I cried my eyes out plenty of times listening to this book. My heart will never be the same.

Any additional comments?

Mandi Beck was a new author to me, but I'm so glad I found her. She has quickly become one of my go to authors and I can't wait to see what she has in store for us next.

Another Great Story

What made the experience of listening to Love Burns the most enjoyable?

Love the way Wen and Kai get into character. I also enjoy listening to them tell a story.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Love Burns?

When Deacon and Frankie were in the cage. HOT

Have you listened to any of Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to quite a few and I just love how they tell a story.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I git teary eyed when they had the big fall out with the mob and the hospital scene.

Any additional comments?

Very enjoyable. Excellent follow up from Love Hurts.

Wow! Hard to quit listening!

I loved both of the books in this series but this one was fantastic. LOVED Deacon and Frankie. so sweet. not sure if I'm a fan of anyone being called the 'princess' but it worked. liked the whole cage fighting story! the narration was great. NICE steam level on the sex!

Deacon "The Hitman" Love comes back swinging!

What made the experience of listening to Love Burns the most enjoyable?

Kai and Wen are amazing! These two have chemistry like none I've heard before. I love listening to this duo.

What other book might you compare Love Burns to and why?

Love Hurts for obvious reasons, but also Sacrifice by Adriana Locke. There is something about those fighter novels that keep me interested. Those alpha men really know how to woo a girl.

Which scene was your favorite?

I can't get into my favorite scene without spoiling the end. THAT ENDING! Wow! It's perfect!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Stick and Move.

Any additional comments?

Mandi Beck writes a great fighter romance. Kai and Wen bring the characters to life. This book is an emotional roller coaster and I didn't want to get off the ride.

Adrenaline Rush!!!!

This team did it again! Wen and Kai flowed flawlessly as ever. The ending was perfect!! This was more emotional than the first but that made it all the better. Thank you Beck for an amazing Duet, I can't wait to read or listen to the next!

Stick and Move, Hitman style!

What did you like best about this story?

There are so many things I loved about this story, but what sticks out to me the most would have to be, Frankie and Deacon's love. It is like this living thing that they both have to figure out. They know what is it, but it is so much bigger than they are that they have to grow into it.

What does Wen Ross and Kai Kennicott bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Life!! I've said these a million times I am sure, but they bring the characters to life. You can always think what you want about the voices and the characters when you are reading a book and that's awesome, but to hear a voice and the emotions of a character is just breathtaking.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES!! And I pretty much did because I just had to know what was going to happen in the end.

Emotional doesn't even begin to describe it......

Must have tissues!!!! I fell in love after book one and continued to this book and WOW! I have no words to describe the heartache contained within but even so I am glad that I completed it. I sat listening and sobbing and going through tissues as my heart ached at the scenes playing out before me. Simply must read these books but have tissues!!!

...sigh...

So I may have jokingly called the author names in my review of Love Hurts but it was warranted. This book on the other hand had be constantly sending her messages. (I cannot discuss them based on the spoiler potential, just know that vengeance will be mine.)

If you learned anything about Deac and Princess, it's that their relationship is beyond explanation. Words are never enough. Probably because communication is not their strong suit...

But these two are fighters! The question is will they ever stop fighting each other so that they can fight side by side.

The feels...sigh, the feels.
No spoilers though so you to will have to grin and bear it.

I had an absolute blast with these books and will continue to explore more of the author's works.
