Rayne Check

A Love in Mission City Short Story

De: Gabbi Grey

Narrado por: Michael Dean

Everett

I meet an intriguing man at Quinton’s annual Halloween Extravaganza. That wicked smile and the tawny-brown eyes behind his mask hold my gaze. Under his costume, the restless energy of his body promises to do explosive, unexpected things to me. So we indulge in a little fun, but when the clock strikes midnight, the man I know only as Rayne disappears into the crowd.

My straitlaced Mission City friends tell me to chalk it up to experience, but I can't get that man off my mind, or stop hoping we'll meet again one day.

Rayne Check is a smoking-hot 7k word short story about a buttoned-up lawyer who lets go of his iron control for one night, the man he can’t forget, and the friends who have his back. The story is set in the Love in Mission City world.

Short and exciting!

Can’t wait to see what happens in their story! Great performance and spicy short listen.

Mysterious stranger!

I loved this short and spicy tale. Everett is smitten with the mysterious stranger he met at a party. Now I can’t wait to read Rayne’s Return coming to ebook soon.

Steamy Little Short!

A steamy little short, about a quick Halloween hookup. Excited to listen to the follow up in Rayne’s Return!

Good little vignette

A steamy short for Halloween. Everett is very intrigued by a mysterious man he sees at a friend’s Halloween party. I want to know who Rayne really is and why he was there. Very curious to find out more about these characters. And nice to see some from other works by this author.

Great Intro

This short story is a great intro to an interesting story for Rayne. I one night stand, could it lead to more? Really enjoyed the quick story. Michael Dean as always was great (with the exception that his Australian accent sounded more Irish.)

Looking forward to the rest of the Rayne tale.

Wow!

This little snack was just the right length teaser for me! Michael Dean is a wonderful narrator, and the intrigue is exquisite!

Halloween party

This is the short story of how Rayne and Everett meet! It was meant to be a one off. However, there is something about Rayne Everett can’t forget!

Extended Prologue

This is a single chapter, from Everett’s POV, of his one night stand with Rayne. It’s obvious something is up with Rayne, possibly something really sad/bad, and I’m eager to read Rayne’s Return. Michael Dean does a great job narrating. I’ve read most of Gabbi Grey’s Mission City books and have enjoyed them all. This was short but definitely got me excited for the full book.

Cute prequel

I loved the mystery man in this prequel. Having a harlequin mask was a nice touch. Looking forward to their whole story.

A really good Prologue

For a surprisingly short story/listen, this capture my attention right away! Although the beginning was a little flat for me, once it picked up I was all in. It’s a great prologue to the story to come and I cannot wait to delve on it! I like the fact that it leaves you wanting more as it prepares you for the next book, but it doesn’t feel like the story is unresolved or unfinished in a bad way, just an open ending that fits into the next book.

All in all it was a really good read/listen.
