Adapt. Survive. Sustain.

The entire Desperate Times trilogy in one collection with a new epilogue!

Dom’s life was never easy.

Forged in the fires of poverty and neglect, he’s spent years building a life for himself. And it seems like everything is finally coming together. He lives on his own in a decent house at the edge of town, he works for himself, he’s debt-free, and, most recently, his relationship with his attractive best friend seems to be heading somewhere....

But everything is about to change.

When a catastrophic solar flare fries the electric grid, Dom and the two women he cares about most will be forced to walk hundreds of miles through chaos to a safe location. Bad weather, dangerous people, and a world gone crazy stand between them and sanctuary.

It will take everything everything for them to survive.

A good end of the world adventure.

An interesting take on the apocalypse. I, however, had a few issues with the protagonist. He acted against common since sometimes. But what really got me was his demanding and brutal nature with the girls. A situation like theirs, I suspect, would feel more tender at times. Zac Zaba and Erin Bateman performed very well and I really enjoyed that partnership.

Well done. Well narrated. will be looking forward to the next from this author. I received this copy free in exchange for an honest review.

Fun listen with a decent story

I think the story is a bit heavy on the smut, but despite that its still pretty fun with a great MC. Erin bateman did really awesome with the more exotic accents and impressed me a lot. I didnt love Zachary Zaba, but he wasnt bad, All in all I consider this a good story and another success by Lara.

Really good

This is a great series in one book and it’s got great real characters that work together really well and the interaction between them is very realistic and interesting and I fully recommend it

loved that he picked up so many women and they were all cool with being with him..

very suspenseful and seductive/sexual story about a post apocalyptic time that has a good story line and content. It has suspense, sex and real potential humanity situations. I liked it, just didn't like Dom's voice.. Otherwise a good listen, for sure!!

5 stars

Another great series by Lara X Lust. You will not be disappointed. Also the dual narration really brings the story to life. I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

This was a good series

This was my first series from this author and I have to say I enjoyed it. The setup was interesting and the characters were great. I have always found it interesting to see what people will do to survive in an apocalyptic situation, how some band together while others only look after themselves. All of them fighting over limited resources or safe shelter. Seeing how the author interprets these instincts is always fascinating. As for the narration both Erin Bateman and Zachary Zaba do a great job with this series. They both help bring this world and characters to life. I am glad I gave this series a try.

enjoyable

an enjoyable post apocalypse type book with fun times and action. If you enjoy sexy time, action, and a feel of protecting the ones you care about, you'll enjoy this book.

An easy and fun series.

I really liked this series and might even go back through it when I need to just have a easy story to listen to. The relationship between them feels like it fully and truly solidified in this one. The thing that is annoying though, especially with such a drastic drop in the species… is that their family isn’t ever going to grow… no descendants… no hope with children and their children growing a clan or something. Becoming something that will help the world out of its chaos, and find a way to restore order.

But despite that, it was a fun series. It doesn’t seem like there will be anymore, at least for a while.

The narrators do a great job as well. Bateman is definitely one of my favorites. She did a great job with Anya’s accent!
The last scene ending with Anya was the best! The love there was a nice finale for it all!

The Epilogue is a nice addition that wasn’t at the end of the third book. It adds some better closer for the series than how the single third book did.

I thank Royal Guard for the code to this boxset and to be able to leave a review for it.
