The Rhythm of Blues

Love in Rhythm & Blues, Book 1

De: Love Belvin

Narrado por: Myles Washington, Zakiya

Some believe the old adage, “where there’s smoke, there’s fire". Well, in some instances the smoke is just a coverture for secrets. Dark ones.

Ragee is a successful R&B singer, music composer, and actor who shot to fame and celebrity at rocketing speed. He has the voice, the troubled soul, the seductive look, and the alluring mystique, all of which give him the traditional packaging of a soulful rhythm and blues singer. But he also has an unshakable stigma attached to his stardom that won’t seem to go away.

Wynter Blue thought she was taking control of her world the day she up and quit her job. As a social service professional, she was done with helping afflicted adult men to right their paths in life. She was ready to live for her. Finally. She wanted to pursue her dreams and stretch the bounds of her creativity. Little did she know, the day she walked out of her job was the very one she’d run into the shroud of smoke. His smoke.

Awfully familiar with secrets herself, Wynter questions if she can handle Ragee’s darkness while trying to bring him into the light of truth.

Disclaimer: The Rhythm of Blues is book one of a two-book series. This series is for mature audiences only. This installment is a full-length novel containing profanity, erotica, and sensitive sexual content. It ends on a cliffhanger. If you do not like dark, racy romance, this literary venture is not for you.

narration Jakobi Diem & Wesleigh Siobbah needed!!!

Narration could've been better. Overall great book. When will part 2 be available? Hopefully soon

I've Been Converted!

This was a reread for me. I had sworn off audibles. I tried a few in the past and could not focus, remember and had to continually replay. Listening to this book made me realize that it was NOT audiobooks that I didn't like, it was the narrator. I had no problem following and staying in the moment with this book. The language was clear to understand, etc. I loved the way they made Pastor McKinnon sound. She sounded like a seasoned mother in Zion. I could feel all the feels with Ragee and Wynter even though their story was very dark.

For me, the only downsides were: the long delays in the reading, I didn't know if it had stopped, or it was at the end of the chapter, so I had to keep checking. Then the splicing was a bit noticeable. At one point, I was sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to hear what was going to go down and missed the build up because of the splice. When it came back in, the tense had shifted. And lastly, this is just what I visualized in my head, Ragee and Wynter were both singers, I expected the narrators to be able to blow. I was underwhelmed by their singing voices.

Belvin is my true favorite author. I have never read an author that makes me go dig deep and think about stories on a larger scale and peel back multiple layers. I own all of her books in Kindle and paperback. I have many authors that I've read almost their whole body of works but she is the only one that I own everything. Now it looks like I'll be investing in audiobooks as well. This is her first of many so I know that the only way we are going is up.

Very good despite....

I love this story and this author. The way Love wrote the story was full of detail, and painted a vivid picture. I liked the narrators, but the female narrator needs to invest into sound proofing. It sounded like she recorded her parts in front of a fan. Other than that I really enjoyed the audible version of this book. I can't wait for part 2.

Loved It

This book was wonderful. The story, the backstory the characters & their complexities…all came to life.

The story is amazing

But the performance of the women was horrible. The story is amazing but the quality recording was horrendous.

please release book two

well written story and beautifully narrated. hopefully we can get book two soon. well worth listening.

Always Love Love

I love this story and love being able to listen to it. My only critique is the the sound quality for the female narrator. At times it was an echo. But both narrator did an excellent job bringing Ragee and Wynter to life. Can't wait for the next book

Great start for what's to come...

This was Love Belvin's first audiobook. I love it! I'm very familiar with the story of Raj and Wynter. They are a few of my favorite Love characters. I can't wait for the next Love Belvin audiobook.

Worth the credit

The audio is not good but I was able to get past it and the long pauses to really enjoy the story! Awesome job to the Author I hope we get hear more of your books here on Audible.

Love

I’m a fan of Love Belvin’s books. It draws me in and I feel like I’m waking next to each character.
