Zane

De: Jo Raven

Narrado por: Sebastian York, Anna Riordan

They call me Zen-man, the cool-headed one, the protector. I keep an eye out for everyone, take them in, find them homes. They think I’m the calm and collected one, the self-assured one, the one who knows the way. They think they see me. They think they know me.

But they’re all wrong, because inside I’m broken. I have a jagged hole in my soul I can’t fix, a festering blackness. I’ve been to the pits of hell, and nobody comes back unscathed. Life in foster care fucked me up, and now a thread is all that’s holding me together.

So I sleep around and never date, keeping chicks away. One day I’ll snap, and when I do, there’s no telling who I might take down with me.

All the same, there’s this one girl who won’t be scared away. Dakota. She’s hot, and I won’t deny I want her. But she keeps coming back, pushing me, trying to get me to talk, to open up to her.

She has no idea she’s playing with fire. When the demons come, she’d better be far away from me, just like everyone else.

Stand-alone novel. No cliff-hanger. Warning: this book contains graphic language, sex, and violence. Mature listeners only. Not intended for young listeners.

Bonus! Includes What I Want for Christmas, a Zane and Dakota short story.

Love this series

I absolutely love the Inked Brothers series. Thoroughly enjoy it and I love seeing men vulnerable too. They are not always the strongest and they need that one woman that can hold it all together for them. The queen behind them and that is everything.

intense is an understatement

it's like dang we understand he is hurt like bruh. get over it. and she is annoyingly to understanding to me. like girl it's to much at times.

A little on the darker side

This is a bit of a darker romance but told with some hope. I really love the whole group of characters and how they've made a found family with each other. Narration is done well.

Great series love the author Jo Raven wonderful

wonderful story teller love love this series these stories are real life. this is a must

Okay series...but....

I didn't dislike the series, but I did not exactly love it either. The thing that annoyed me mostly is the age of all these characters.
Every single one is under age for what is IMO logical in the storylines.
Storylines that began '4 or 5 years ago' when characters were 14 or 15 and then to 'now' when they are barely 20.
I am in no way saying that it isn't possible for some things to have happened as written - but to me it would be much easier to swallow if this group of friends were all 25 or so in the 'now'.
Also, no tattoo artist is going to be 18 or 19 and running his own shop. This is something that takes years of apprenticeship to learn and become licences for. (Fully tatted here...so trust me)

Narration was decent, but again these voices are NOT 19 or 20.

Overall if you can suspend your disbelief over parts it isn't a waste of time or credits.

Zane

love the book and all of Zane's books hope to read more very soon thanks

A Little Disappointed

Overall I thought it was a good story but it could have been better. We don't know anything about Zane's past except he was in foster care and he was abused/attacked. There were very little details about what happened to him and I just found that unfinished.

You saw glimpses as to what happened but the story was incomplete, was it other foster kids, foster parents. He said someone tried to drown him, was it after the burns or was he set on fire. Were these 2 different instances, I also understand that he couldn't remember everything, but then it seems as if somewhere in his story he could have remembered so he could truly move on. Other than that large piece of the puzzle I enjoyed the story and will listen to the others at some point.

Loved

I loved this one Zane and Dakota can't wait to her more from them in future.

Highly recommended

I’m loving this series! So far, I’ve flown through every book because I have to know what happens. One of my favorite series in a long time.
Sebastian York is amazing as always & I enjoyed Anna’s narration. They did a great job portraying the characters!

Loved this book!

Think i have read this series like 4 times. i just LOVE it. might be the bad boy persona or there bad childhoods and life that i can relate to kind of in a way but this might be my ALL TIME favorite series.
