voice actors should be chosen with the bias

there were moments I wanted to gouge out my ears when either of the voice actors took over. sometimes the female voice actress would pause after every single word, like she didn't know how to read a sentence, or like she was some kind of robot. it was exacerbating. as for the male voice actor, he wasn't bad... but he wasn't all that good either... kind of had some kind of weird whiny golden retriever type energy.

horrible narrarators

the male narrarator did not sound mean and gruff enough to be an mc member. just really unbelievable character. i couldn't finish it.

Great story but I didn’t really care for the voice acting.

I would have found the whole story more appealing if the voice actors weren’t voicing characters of the opposite sex. It’s a bit of a turn off hearing a guy trying to talk in a female voice especially in a romance novel, it just doesn’t feel very realistic. Would have been better if the voice actors just spoke their own characters lines regardless of who’s POV it was. And I would have picked a more rougher sounding voice actor for the guy. He sounds more like high school jock than a MC club member.

Too fast paced, bad dialogue

The plot itself is a good premise, unfortunately the dialogue and pace was not well done. The dialogue was very immature for the characters to be in their mid 20’s. While I don’t always need a slow burn, there was no “build up” at all. I’m not sure if it’s because there were two authors but there were a few discrepancies with timelines in this story. While I do love foreshadowing, this book was too apparent, so the ending of the book became obvious very early on.

Wonderful narrators

The audiobook narration brings the characters to life in a way that makes it hard to stop listening. If you’re a fan of suspenseful, steamy romance, this one is for you!

meh

This was a very mediocre story. Nothing really stands out that makes me remember it above others. No kinks, straight vanilla.

Instalove and awful female narrator

This is a short book so you know the love part happens quickly. But I have seen it done much better than this one. Where they have more than 5 sentences and are inseparable. Also, there is a real threat to the heroine. But the author keeps trying to throw in how dangerous the hero himself and his biker club is. But they aren't doing anything illegal or evil. They are trying to be vigilantes. So the continuous "he's dark and could ruin me" repetitive commentary is dumb and useless. They are not a typical "1% outlaw club". I also have got to remember how I hate Stephanie Rose's voice every time I hear it. She sounds like a stuck-up princess you can't stand no matter what the character she is trying to portray.

Quick Read

The story moved at a fast pace, no angst or cheating, mystery, some drama, great communication, MC brotherhood had a compassionate for abused animals and saving them. Not your typical Brotherhood story. Epilogue with a HEA with a promise for a future.

Great read

Even though it was very predictable, I enjoyed the read. Happy she found her happy ending. They deserve all the happiness.

One of my FAVORITE TROPES😝😝😝

I love a vigilante storyline. And this storyline was executed perfectly for me. I love how the. FMC quickly accept that how the MMC did what he did for the good. The last 10 chapters had me on my toes, forcing me to stay up all night and listen to the rest of the story😅😅I LOVED this book. And both narrators did a fantastic job executing the audiobook. They are the main reason why I chose us to listen to this book in the first place. Being a fan of both of them. This book is a perfect combination of humor, thriller/suspense, and spice.🔥🔥🔥🔥
