4.5 Stars! 💗

As soon as i found out about this audiobook i immediately started looking forward to it! Whenever i get to experience a story again in audio it always makes me so happy! I started listening to it right away and got right back into the Men of Hidden Justice world! I loved this listen!

Having listened to both Maxine Mitchell and John Lane's narration many times before it always makes me smile whenever i get to listen to these two narrators! These two and their voices captured my attention from the start! I loved what these two brought to the story as Raven and Damien! They captured the emotions, suspense, and everything in between in such fantastic ways! I didn't want to stop listening to these two. I can't wait to listen to more of Maxine and John's narration in the future!

Damien and Raven's journey once again pulled me in and didn't let go! One moment can change everything which Damien and Raven sure know. Can these two tackle everything thrown their way, together?

Raven had such strength and Damien's protective ways made me swoon. The chemistry between these two was undeniable and i loved how i felt so much with them from beginning to end! From the moments that had my heart racing to the ones that had me all in my feels, i fell for this story and it's characters even more this time around.

With The Watcher, Ms.Moreland has created such a great journey that'll keep you on your toes and make you feel so much! This is such an awesome series! I can't wait for the fifth installment, The Specialist! Definitely check this series out if you haven't already.

Suspenseful!

This is the fourth book in the Men of Hidden Justice series, and excellent Romantic Suspense. I read it and loved it. The audiobook version is amazing! Damien and Raven are fantastic characters. Damien is handsome, and protective. Raven is beautiful, strong, and smart. The storyline is entertaining, and captivating, and I liked the mystery, the suspense, and the romance. Maxine Mitchell and John Lane definitely are on my list of favorite narrators. They did an outstanding job with the narration. I enjoyed it. Looking forward for more in the series!

Phenomenal Storytelling

I'm completely blown away by this book. Damien and Raven are really perfect for eachother.
John and Maxine the dynamic pair in narrating. The inflections and tone the way I can sense the emotions through my earbuds makes this one of favorites for 2022.

Incredible story!

Every time I listen to one of the Men of Hidden Justice books by Melanie Moreland, I get completely swept up in the story from the very first chapter. The danger, the mystery, the sexiness, the alpha male hero that saves the sweet heroine from distress? Maxine Mitchell and John Lane narrating the story? Yes, please!! I just know that my ears are in for a treat with this duo - John Lane's deep and gravelly tone is absolutely perfect for our hero Damien, and Maxine Mitchell gave another incredible performance as Raven!

The Watcher is book 4 in this incredible series, and this time we get to watch Damien save the girl, after one memorable meet-cute at the start of this story. Raven definitely ran into the right bar and the right arms that day, not knowing that Damien was the perfect man to protect her from the man who didn't understand that no meant no. That kiss they shared seconds after meeting, holy smokes, it was hot......and the sparks flew immediately between them. Raven obviously didn't want to drag Damien into her mess, but he jumped right into protection mode - and she never stood a chance against him. Love how all the other men who lightning struck jump back in to help when one of their own needs it - these men truly have created an incredible bond and family, and I just can't get enough of them.

Seriously, this series is just one of my favorites - highly recommend going back from the beginning so you can fall in love with these characters too! You won't regret it!

Phenomenal

This series get better and better with each book. Melanie gives another phenomenal story which captivates you from the first page and keeps you hooked from the very beginning and keeps you hooked throughout. This is Damien and Raven’s story. From the moment these two meet there is a spark. Raven is dealing with Stalker and with Damien experience and background he feels protective about Raven . The story was captivating and beautifully written and as always both the narrators have done exceptionally well with the narration and have brought the story to life. This is another fantastic addition to this series and I really enjoyed the audiobook. Highly recommend this book

My Favorite In The Series

Wow! She definitely knows how to write. I love the Men of Hidden Justice and this one, book 4, isn’t the exception at all. Damien it’s indeed the best one to protect Raven. That first kiss was totally AMAZING. It’s nice to see “the Lightning has struck” again as Julian would say. All the emotions in this book are strong, the twist and turns kept me on the edge and desperate for more and more. Raven is so perfect and she knows Damien would do anything for her, anything. The trust and love between them is refreshing. Damien as the Watcher knows everything she might need and is always there to please her. I savored this audiobook it is perfection. John and Maxine are amazing. They know how to bring to life this characters. Amazing performance. Melanie’s books are additives and always in my favorites.

A great audiobook!

I am always excited to pick up a new Melanie Moreland book, and I had been looking forward to Damien's story.

He and Raven have an unconventional first meeting when she asks for his help to get away from her stalker. From that first moment there is a connection between them and it was easy to see why they fell for one another. They were both interesting characters who were well matched.

I have enjoyed each book in the Men of Hidden Justice series, but this is my favorite so far. It was a great mix of suspense, romance, and characters you can love. Melanie's writing is excellent and the story is perfectly paced and entertaining with great narration.

A Sumptuous Feast of Romance & Suspense

This book offers a sumptuous feast of rich emotion, tantalizing drama, steamy heat, shiver inducing suspense, mega feels and super swoon. Damien and Raven's story is definitely going to have your pulse pounding as you try to catch your breath. These two make an incredibly sweet, fun, hot and cute couple that manages to steal your heart before you even have the time to blink! I simply adored them!! This captivating and consuming (and kind of frightening) story gets off to an intense start that grabs your interest quickly and then the author lets the suspense and tension simmer and build until your nerves are stretched right to the breaking point and you simply do not want to stop listening, even if you have things that must get done . I myself had to stay up way too late to finish it and I REGRET NOTHING!! This book features dual narration and I found both voices pleasing and easy to listen to. The performances given were excellent.

Raven and Damien

This was a great book. I love this series. Raven has a stalker she met on a dating app and he makes her fear for her safety. In trying to escape from him, she runs in a bar where she meets Damien. Damien is on the case. The stalker thought he was smarter than everyone but he really didn't know Damien. Damien was awesome and I love how he cared for Raven. I hope the next book comes to Audible soon. I love how the people from Hidden Justice come together to assist one of their own. Maxine Mitchell and John Lane did a great job with the narration.
