The Perfect Gentlemen, Book 1

De: Shayla Black, Lexi Blake

Narrado por: Kaleo Griffith

From the New York Times best-selling authors of the Masters of Ménage series...

They are the Perfect Gentlemen of Creighton Academy: Privileged, wealthy, powerful friends with a wild side. But a deadly scandal is about to tear down their seemingly ideal lives.

Maddox Crawford’s sudden death sends Gabriel Bond reeling. Not only is he burying his best friend, he’s cleaning up Mad’s messes, including his troubled company. Grieving and restless, Gabe escapes his worries in the arms of a beautiful stranger. But his mind-blowing one-night stand is about to come back to haunt him...

Mad groomed Everly Parker to be a rising star in the executive world. Now that he’s gone, she’s sure her job will be the next thing she mourns, especially after she ends up accidentally sleeping with her new boss. If only their night together hadn’t been so incendiary - or Gabe like a fantasy come true...

As Gabe and Everly struggle to control the heated tension between them, they discover evidence that Mad’s death was no accident. Now they must bank their smoldering passions to hunt down a murderer - because Mad had secrets that someone was willing to kill for, and Gabe or Everly could be the next target...

Drawn out at times

Too much sex, the plot was good but tend to draw out with all the details

Read this first!!

For whatever reason, the didn't read this book first and came back to it at the end. It nicely filled in some of the holes in the series, mostly around Gave and Everly's relationship, but I also knew most of what was going to happen so I got impatient.

I have to say, if you like this series of books, you will probably want to read/listen to them a second (and maybe third) time!!

Sexy, suspenseful

Love this book so much and am losing sleep to continue reading the series. Bravo Ladies. 👏

50% HARDCORE EROTICA 50% MYSTERU

What made the experience of listening to Scandal Never Sleeps the most enjoyable?

It was an eye opener when the sex scenes started and kept on going.

What did you like best about this story?

When the sex scenes started and kept on going - unusual in this type of book.

Have you listened to any of Kaleo Griffith’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I would have remembered. He's good, very good!

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

Yes, and I did.

Good narration, rich boys club, poor ending

It is an easy listen with plenty of romance that seems triggered by lust. Story of rich boys who have access to everything yet treat women as sex objects. Prime female character is smart and bombshell sexy which is somewhat uncommon characterisation. It ends abruptly with a few unanswered questions. I wish the author had included point of view of other than the lover couple.

Enthralling!

I couldn't get to sleep until I got to the end! Fantastic suspense and mystery, with sizzling hest & chemistry between Everly and Gabriel. I need the next book!!

YOU CAN'T STOP ONCE YOU START!!

This book was awesome!!! I couldn't hit pause for long once I started. Suspense, action, thrilling, sexy, murder/mystery. All of my favorites into one! Can't wait to start the next book!!!

Great Narration

I had come to tire of some of Shayla blacks books that she had put out recently so this was a very nice change of pace. I enjoyed this book very much it has her usual sultry aspect to it with a mystery twist, it was a great listen.

EROTIC. INTELLIGENT. HOT. MYSTERY. THRILLER....

I’ve made it as clear as Baccarat, that I love all things Erotic , and I love to read. This offering was far more cerebral than the norm. It was not a rollercoaster plot twist at the very end but throughout, from start to finish. I’m not one to review a book by telling everything about the book, teetering on a spoiler alert. Although, I will say this, because it’s very important to real women, real men, and serious readers…the female lead character, “Everly,” (how cool a name is that!?!) isn’t a weak whiny girlie-woman. She holds her own…I really love that. A woman can be submissive, without having had a lobotomy…the proof’s in this book. Wait…Everly, isn’t all that submissive…except, where it counts. There are enough fine Alpha males in here, to remake all of the Greek Gods.
The authors, and the narrator are superb. There are so many books that I cannot read, audibly, because of a narrator more suited to narrating the ranch and farm report, than romance/erotica. That’s where my burgeoning kindle comes in handy, only thing is I can’t read it as I drive, get a mani-pedi, shop…you get the picture. I’ve been read to since childhood, so setting the timer on the audible app, and falling asleep to a hot read, is a natural. If I really like a book I’ll read it more than once, anyway. At the very least, I’ll back up in the chapter to wear it’s familiar and go from there, the next time I queue it up. This book is exactly, what it claims to be, so if you've mistaken it for a hymnal or a prayer book, fair chance, this aint it. The sex is great, of course, but this book isn’t solely dependent on it. So when they do tear into each other, I was like, "Hey, get up from there and solve this s__t!" HA! No I didn't.
Not only did I love this erotic thriller...I would trust anything offered by this collaboration.
Cheers

great balance of suspense and romance

Kaleo Griffith narrated the book very well. The book was a very good balance of suspense story and romance. It didn't stall anywhere, moved along at a great pace, and kept me looking forward to the next time I could listen. Looking forward to starting the next book.
