Fun Read

This was a fun concept and a fun book to listen too I personally cannot stand male narrators doing female characters but other than that it’s a solid enjoyable read.

No spoiler review

First, I started listening to the author starting with the fourth monkey. I first encountered the narrator Edoardo Ballerini with Proxima Rising. So for me this was an easy purchase. The story was fun. It was a great listen. I listened to the entire book in one sitting. You just can’t go wrong with this pair.

Unhinged in the best way!

The story line will have you in a chokehold from minute one! This book is action packed yet still a touch a romance. By the end you’ll be questioning all your life decisions.

JD is back with a vengeance!

It’s a JD Barker novel?!

Is there anything to dislike…?

Another incredible title from one of my favorite authors.

If you have never read one of JD’s books or have been a fan since the beginning like me, you will love this and all of his other work and collaborations!

You will thank me later!

Fast paced thriller with a naughty twist

Behind A Closed Door by J D Barker

Abby and her husband Brenden Hollander have been financially struggling as well as having marital problems. Believing that Brenden cheated with a coworker, they agree to see a marriage counselor. When the counselor suggests an App to help them work on their relationship, called Sugar and Spice, they download it. Almost immediately, their relationship heats up in a way that it hasn’t been in years, as the app is a version of Truth or Dare.

But as their Dares become more risqué, so does the game, which has access to their photos, history, and more. What would you do if you were asked a naughty date? Would you do it?

This book was extremely hot, with a mix of thrilling twists and some naughtiness that makes you wonder what is next. I found myself not wanting to put this book down. It was my first read by JD Barker but if this is the way his books are, it definitely will not be my last.

Captivating

I enjoyed this very much. The story was fantastic. Narration was perfect. The story had everything. Humor, suspense, love,. It was real page Turner.

Very Enjoyable Listen!

I've read J.D. Barker's 4MK Trilogy, and it's definitely one of my favorites. Even though this book is very different from that series, I thought this was also excellent. It was quite different from anything else that I have read. This book was a very fast paced, fun, thrill ride. It has definitely made me think twice before downloading an app. Also, as always, the narration by Edoardo Ballerini was amazing.

The dark parts 😂

BEHIND A CLOSED DOOR
J.D. Barker
Genre: thriller, action, mystery

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3.5/5 stars

Lots of action. It seemed very unrealistic at times but really not that far fetched since our world is so reliant on technology. Very eerie and disturbing on many levels!

Pretty good

Good storyline. I’ll check out the authors other books, first time reading this author author.

Absolutely Creepy!

I love Eduardo Ballerini as a narrator, but not even his excellent performance of this book can entice me to finish it. The concept of a phone app 'controlling someone's sex life, and instructing for a murder' is even scarier than 1984! I suppose it could be possible in our age of nothing is impossible with technology. I hope that a crazy with accompanying technological prowess does not read this. It is what nightmares are made of! I have read several books by this author and his skills are impressive. I hope this idea does not reach the mind of the above mentioned crazy!
