Midnight Days

White Nights, Book 2

By: Anna Zaires, Charmaine Pauls

Narrated by: CJ Bloom, Sebastian York

My instincts warned me that Alex Volkov is a dangerous man. My mind told me to run when he set his sights on me with unfaltering determination. It’s not that I didn’t try to resist, but Alex had a game plan. He was always one step ahead of me, skillfully drawing me deeper into his web. Even when he gave me freedom, it was only an illusion.

Now, even that illusion has vanished. I’m his prisoner in the truest sense of the word, whisked away to Russia on his private plane. I no longer have a say, not while our lives are at risk, and maybe never again. Our story balances on a thin edge between disaster and happiness. With each day that passes, I grow less certain of which side the coin will land on...or if we’ll even survive.

Note: This is the conclusion of Alex and Kate's story.

A FANTASTIC, FRICTION-FILLED 🌪🔥 5 STAR FOLLOW-UP

Wow you gifted authors and talented narrators, what a fantastic second book in the White Nights Duet this was with its passion, chemistry, relationship conflicts, climactic challenges, drama, suspense and h..h..heat. Which made it pretty much an unstoppable listen for me as I was immediately drawn back into Alex and Kate’s turbulent world. A world where an invisible enemy and danger threatens Kate and Alex’s reaction is to take his precious kitten to his well-guarded home in St. Petersburg Russia.. leaving her home, her job, her Mom and their peaceful harmony behind. And, in this relationship rollercoaster, Alex is determined to protect Kate at any cost, discover who is out to get him and why.. and then make them pay!! However, the web he begins to uncover runs deep, becomes multi-layered and is built to snare so breaking it won’t come cheap.. or without its blood sacrifice. Meanwhile for Kate, and despite trying to fit in, his mansion becomes her prison, his refusal to share news and information about the threats become red flags and his possessive protection becomes obsession rather than love.

And in their world of lust, passion, protection, threats, good and bad secondary characters, love, heady highs and toxic lows these two supremely talented author’s world-building draws you in as you feel every exciting, emotionally conflicted, tense, suspenseful, dramatic, pleasurable and painful move. This dynamic writing duo leave no questions unanswered, no person unaccounted for and no t or i that hasn’t been crossed or dotted in their skilful wrapping up in this couple’s well-deserved HEA Epilogue. However, it was CJ and Sebastian’s dual POV narration that turned their written words into this exciting five star drama-filled audiobook 👏.

Worth a credit? Yes definitely.. and a happy sigh, because now I want to listen to it all over again 🙂.

Good story

Ok I liked the books. Both of them but Kate did annoy me. She was a bit of a cry baby and complained way to much. Very green. Other than that I loved the story and the narrations.

Lots of Suspense - So good!

Kate was annoying in this book too but I understood her reluctance with Alex. He took her to Russia for her safety but an ex is putting ideas in her head to try to make Kate leave Alex. The ex wants Alex to marry her and Kate knew this but listened to her anyway. So dumb for such a smart woman. Loved Alex. He is my favorite, followed by Peter, then Nikolai. Anna Zaires and Charmaine Pauls are a great writing duo and did an outstanding job with the two books. I hope they continue to write together. CJ Bloom and Sebastian York were excellent. Sebastian York had a larger role in this book.

Book 2 Is So Much Better!

Thanks to Sebastian York making this book soooo much better and I liked it so very much!

Suspenseful Conclusion!

This is the second book in the White nights Duet, a Dark Mafia Romance. I read it and loved it. The audiobook version is amazing! Kate and Alex's story continues where the first book left off. Alex is dark, powerful, and obsessively possessive, and dominant. Kate needs protection, but she isn't a damsel in distress. She is smart, strong, and independent. They are opposites attract. Their chemistry is off the charts. There is a lot going on in this installment. The storyline has suspense, action, danger, and secrets revealed. The world building is intricate, and captivating. This is a suspenseful conclusion to this enthralling duet. C.J. Bloom and Sebastian York did a fantastic job with the narration. They are perfect as Kate and Alex. Looking forward to listening to more books written by Anna Zaires and Charmaine Pauls, two of my favorite authors!

Fantastic work.

From one end of the country to the next you just want it to not end. The dangers that keeps happening is mind?

Wow!

Love these 2 books. The suspense is good. I want to read more! the sex does not override the suspense.

Keep You Warm on a Cold Night

This story had everything. Great story line. Great characters. Great love. Great suspense. Kept me up all night long.

love the story line

but you have a strong lady as the lead actor at the beginning but then you make her look like she is so weak and cannot speak up for herself that's not attractive at all. But making a strong woman look so weak is beneath you. She went from being so strong to so pathetic and just a couple of chapters that is so wrong knowing that you have give the male character and even stronger stance in this novel so sad. I wished you authors would not do that from at least let them be the strong ladies they are at the beginning of the novels but (overall the story is good).

By the way please stop using the food as part of the story we don't have to hear so much about the (food whopping up to your nostrils or the looking so good) it seems like that takes up a lot of the story.

One of my favorites

I have as skeptical at first but I was blown away. I've listened to ALOT of audio books. I compare them all to this one.
