Last Hit

Hitman, Book 1

De: Jessica Clare, Jen Frederick

Narrado por: Iggy Toma, Kasha Kensington

Nikolai: I have been a contract killer since I was a boy. For years I savored the fear caused by my name, the trembling at the sight of my tattoos. If you saw my eyes, it was the last vision you'd have. With her I am the mark, and I am ready to lie down and let her capture me. Opening my small, scarred heart to her brings out my enemies. I will carry out one last hit, but if they hurt her I will bring the world down around their ears.

Daisy: I've been sheltered from the outside world all my life. Home-schooled and farm-raised, I'm so naive that my best friend calls me Pollyanna. I like to believe the best about people. Nikolai is part of this new life, and he's terrifying to me. Not because his eyes are cold or my friend warns me away from him but because he's the only man who has ever seen the real me beneath the awkwardness. With him my heart is at risk...and also my life.

Contains mature themes.

It was ok

Language is crude. If you like Russian accidents this is the winner for you. Good originally in the storyline. Ok read

Better than REACHER

Absolutely love and can't stop listening. Actually I'm only 3/4 the way through but these 2 authors have won me over and I can't wait to explore the style of Jen Frederick because I love learning the history and wisdom of different cultures. Jessica Clare has been one of my favorite romantic authors because of her deep stories which gives us more pearls of wisdom in relationships.

So merry Christmas to me with both of your gifts of putting some of your books in the plus libraries ❤️. Thank you

This book is also a HOW TO an oral sex, or oral sex for dummies, and I mean no Offense to anybody, but I always go to those types of books when I want to learn in detail about something and I think this would be really helpful to those like the character who are inexperienced, and/or have never had a partner that knew how to do it. I am typically not into erotica? And usually fast-forward through those parts in many romantic books, but not so much with this book and Jessica's writing.

So as a patron and definitely not a writer I think you both so much and I'm curious how people write books, and hope I might be able to find an interview that maybe you have done together about this, regardless you are on my top 10 favorite author list as I no longer can read due to Long-Haul Covid but listen to many many audiobooks and educational tools ❤️

Great Anti-Hero Story

I thought this was a great "mafia" style story. The story itself is compelling and the voice acting is top notch. I especially loved the performance of the male voice actor. Pretty good!

Last Hit is a Hit!

Great easy listen, can't wait for the next installment to find out Regan's story. Funny, sexy, sad, serious all in one book.

really good

this is my first listen to these two authors but it definitely won't be my last! excellent story and excellent narration!

Good book

I brought this book quite awhile ago after I got done with the Scarlet Scars by J.M. Darhower. The narrators were Iggy Toma and Kasha Kensington and I really enjoyed that series so much that I went and looked for another series they had done together. So, I picked it up on mere chance.

I'd give this book a 4, possibly a 3. 5. There were a lot of things I absolutely loved, and there were things I'm not particularly fond of. Like stalker love is not my thing, and the narrative in the beginning relied heavily on it. And then when Daisy was like stop watching me, then things turned sideways. Which is also something that was a little weird. I wasn't sure if it was the authors' intent to make stalking out to be a good thing, but it was a little creepy.

That said, Daisy does have a lot of control in the relationship and it makes the the balance of their relationship better. That's the major thing I loved about the book, is the level of comfort of the heroine is never pushed and she always has a say when and how far too go. Which kudos to the writers. That balanced worked for me. I do wish she would have pushed a little bit on asking for his background because of what happens not just to her but her best friend and roommate, Regan. Like really could of helped if Nikolai was more trusting to Daisy as Daisy trusted him. But alas, they found there happy ending. Well, not one person, but that's the next book.

The the overall story is pretty good, I did have difficulties getting through the beginning, but I'm glad I finished.

Excellent Read

Made me laugh out loud at times. Loved the subtle humor. Good character development and a great pairing.

Great 'Bad-boy' hero with a heart of gold.

Any additional comments?

This is just a really fun book about a Ukrainian hit man who stumbles on to a young girl who, has lived her life with her hermit father. She's recently left and is now discovering the world so she is incredibly native, and he is so NOT. But he is really a nice guy at heart.
Not only is there an excellent love story in there, but the sex scenes are so sweet and hot all at once. I'm only 3/4's done but I can say already this is one of the best erotic-romance novels I've listened to this year. Can't wait to get them all.....I've going take my time and slowly get a new one every few weeks this summer!

Fantastic!!

This is one of my favorite books and the audio version is fantastic. Both the male and female narrators do a great job!

Great story and narration

I’ve had this book on my bookshelf, ereader, and on my TBR for ages. When I saw it available in Audible’s romance package I decided to listen and I’m SO glad I did. Great narration and story kept me well entertained during long commutes!
-4.5 Stars!-
