Entangled

Brutes of Bristlebrook, Book 2

By: Rebecca Quinn

Narrated by: Avery Caris, Rose Dioro, Joe Arden, Sebastian York, Teddy Hamilton, JF Harding, Jason Clarke, ZacharyWebber & full cast

These men killed mine, and for that, they have to die

Bristlebrook is up in smoke, my brutes are dead, and Sam’s camp is a powder keg begging for a flame.

Injured and furious over their losses, the surviving hunters are preoccupied with their own problems. Their factions and allegiances. Their internal wars and pissing contests. The new world they want to forge. They don’t look twice at their meek little captive.

They shattered my heart five ways when they killed my brutes, so I don’t care anymore. If I’m to stop the villains, I need to become one.

I need to be smart. I need to be ruthless.

Even if it means razing myself to the ground to do it . . .

We’re bringing her home, or we’re not coming home

They took our librarian from right under our noses—and with Lucky injured, Bristlebrook in flames, and our personal problems finally spilling over, we’re fracturing.

But we need to be better.

Bringing Eden home is the most important mission of our lives.

Followed closely by the second most important . . . building her a home worth returning to.

***
The Brutes of Bristlebrook is a dark(ish) post-apocalyptic, steamy romance series, and Eden will end up with three or more love interests after I’ve appropriately obliterated my listeners’ nerves. Expect complex characters, 1st person present tense, multiple POVs, MM in the harem, angst, lots of laughs, and to encounter material that some listeners may find sensitive.

This book is a big boy at over 180k words and deals with a lot of heavy content. I promise it gets brighter as it goes on (you know... mostly). Please see my website for TWs - your mental health matters.

Wow what a ride

Eden is the real villain…

It's the Narrators That Make this Story Pop

Entangled takes the amazing cast of Ensnared and adds on even more top notch talent; Rose Dioro, Zachary Webber, Connor Crais, and Gregory Salinas. It's been awhile since I've listened to Rose and I forgot how much I enjoy her performances, definitely need to do some rearranging of my TBL. This was my first Gregory Salinas book, and while his role is small in a book that almost 22 hours long, I would definitely like to checkout more of his work. The narrators really bring the feels to life in this book, the character's vulnerability is palpable. I also felt I got to see a new level of Connor's acting.

This was definitely darker than Ensnared, so check the TWs on the author's website. Story wise, I was hoping to see more character growth/development because there wasn't a lot in Ensnared. While I didn't get anything even close to the character growth I was looking for, there was some relationship growth between the men themselves and Eden and some of her men (we see a lot of vulnerability). Eden's naivete is getting on my nerves, there pretty much was no character growth; she keeps making the same mistakes over and over. For a book as long as this, the spice doesn't happen to almost the 50% mark. While it makes complete sense for the plot, for why chose, I was just expecting a lot more spice, though when you get it, it's 5 stars. The story is more of a 2.5 star situation, and I wanted to like it more, but there is way too much going on; too many story arcs, dialogue and inner monologues were too repetitive, too many tertiary characters, some of which don't really move the story forward as individuals. Maybe they'll play a bigger role in the final book or the author is setting us up for some major heartbreak.

love the narrators

love the story , but I hate clifhangers. can't wait for the next one
very awesome cast of narrators

Brilliant second installment, you need to hear it!

This is the second installment in the Brutes of Bristlebrook series, and I was blown away! The narration team of Avery Caris, Rose Dioro, Joe Arden, Sebastian York, Teddy Hamilton, JF Harding, Jason Clarke, and Zachary Webber truly brought this second book in the Brutes of Bristlebrook series to life. Each narrator added a unique layer of depth and emotion to the story, making the complex world of post-apocalyptic romance more vivid and immersive. Their ability to convey intense emotions, from the dark thematic elements to the steamy romantic interludes, was nothing short of phenomenal. I was particularly impressed with how each character's voice was distinct and full of personality, pulling me deeper into the story. This audiobook has undoubtedly set the bar high, leaving me eagerly anticipating the next in the series!

Wowza

The best Audiobook cast ever to perform Rebecca’s books. I have been on edge, angry, laughing, crying, breathless, wanting to kill and so much more! Eden’s choice have consequences and the people she loves will suffer. In this new world there is only the good and evil with no in between. Peace, harmony and love always come at a cost. I can’t wait to see what the Sinners will be up to next. And will Eden and her men recover. Will their love keep them together.

Damn!

Totally a fan of this series. I can’t believe I have to wait for the book. Gawwww. My only complaint is there’s too much inner dialogue by Eden. She can be a bit overwhelming with her slow growth to the point of stupidity.

Stellar performances by all the narrators. Best ever!

🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻

Left off where book one ended. Phenomenal audio cast. Will have more detailed review on IG and GR soon.

My HEART

This series has such a hold on me. I LOVED how long this audiobook was. The characters cracked me up with their quips, and I’m not ashamed to say I cried multiple times while listening at the gym. And the SPICE 🥵🥵 It’s just the perfect cast with the perfect story. I have no idea how I’ll be able to wait until the next book!!

The cliffhanger

This book made me sob, laugh, and jump for joy. The amount of world building and suspense in this book was intoxicating. The complexities of relationship between the characters was captivating and the cliffhanger ripped my heart out.
