About this listen

A stranger online. Dark hair and even darker eyes that knew my dirty desires before I did. A fantasy that should never be spoken. But he pulled the confession from me. And now he's coming for me. Rough. Dirty. Dangerous. It's supposed to be one night to get me off and make me forget. He'll make me his and I'll pretend I don't want him to. I'll run and he'll chase. Because I asked him for this. I begged him for this. Tonight, in the darkness, he's the hunter. And I'm the bait.

Wish I read this, not listened

I enjoyed this story, after listening to one of the other books by this author. I don’t know if it was the same female narrator but both were HORRIBLE! The male narrator was good, maybe a little deep or older than I expect but I could listen to him most of the day.

The two main characters are so compelling, well-written, deep, etc. I was really afraid that the sex was going to be crazy, not crazy hot, but just blooming crazy, but there have been BDSM books I’ve read with much worse sex than Bait.

This author writes some pretty kinky stories but this and Call Me Daddy stories were actually good. There were reasons each character had the kink they did and they each had to deal with their histories.

Overall, i’d Like to buy more of west’s books but I think i’ll Get them on Kindle, not audible, especially if it’s the same female narrator.

Jade, thanks for the stories, this one was a nail biter. So glad I stumbled upon you.

Fantastic Performance - Humanizing the Fringe

First off - HUGE trigger warning.

Second - wow. Amazingly written, beautifully performed and ultimately I know this will be a repeat. DEFINITELY worth a listen.

Bait

Bait is a twisted but sexy as hell game of cat and mouse.
Abigail wants a monster, but will Phoenix be able to fulfill her darkest fantasies?

"I’m seeking my monster in the darkness. I’ll run but you’ll run faster. We’ll play cat and mouse until you catch me. I won’t know you, and I’ll pretend I don’t want to. You’ll pretend you don’t care. I’ll tell you I don’t want it. You’ll tell me you’ll take it anyway, and then you will. And it’ll be rough."-Abigail

Love it

I listen to this book because of a TikTok. And it was the best do. Jay cannot write a bad book like at all. The only thing that I would change would be the female narrator voice wasn’t the right fit for the story. But overall it was a great buck highly recommend

Niche kinks

Struggled with the female narrator until nearly the end. Story wasn't bad, despite triggers.

If you’re looking for CNC, this is it

I enjoyed this! Even though the idea of playing “hunter/prey” with a stranger you’ve never met before could pan out very differently irl, it’s a fun fantasy and was executed well here. I liked that the characters had depth and development throughout the story.

Would have loved duet style narration, but it was still good.

Anticlimactic

I’m left wanting more of something. I don’t know what it is but the story was just missing something. The scenes were hot as hell, and there were a lot of it. But it just didn’t deliver what I hoped for after reading the description and all the comments.

Love even more than the book

I don’t even know how it is that this last wave of audiobooks by Jade West has made me an even bigger fan, but they have. Even though I have read all of the books, the audio upgrade was cheap so I went ahead with it and I am so very glad I did. The audios are amazing. Although the storylines are unconventional and not for the average reader, I’m not the average reader, so we are a match made in heaven.

The narration is perfect. I believe these are new narrators to me since I don’t listen to many audios with British accents, but I loved them so much. Perfect for the characters. I was easily lost to their voices.

Dark and steamy

I had heard some rumblings about this book, so thought I would give it a listen. If you like dark romance, you will enjoy the story of Abigail and Leo. Each of these characters has a dark back story. Leo's stems from a crazy girlfriend who ended up dying in a fire, leaving him with his distraught brother who calls himself Ash, and a delightful son, Cam. We get to see in depth the ramifications of the relationships and where it is taking Leo. Abigail is trying to rebuild her life after a bad relationship and unforeseen circumstances. These two meet online and make a date for Leo to hunt Abigail. And their connection begins from there. The scenes are hauntingly erotic, the chases are dark, masochistic and full of pent up aggression and passion. I loved learning about Leo and thought Evan Garrett portrayed his character exactly as expected. His voice for Leo is rough and slightly raspy, and holds all the angst, frustration and emotion that Leo has. Abigail is a little harder for me to understand, her story is not as fully developed and I had some difficulty relating to her motivation for this type of relationship. There is definitely more to her than is said. Posey Clifford voices Abigail and for this type of role, I found her not to fit the darkness that Abigail felt. Being my first Jade West listen, I will definitely look for more when I am in the mood for a dark romance.
