How Dark is Your Love

You thought you knew what dark love was after Kieran and Lake, but you don’t. Sheldon and Keenan are about to smoke them out of the water and make you love every second of it in the process. It’s dirty and gritty and intriguing and mysterious. Everything that the first 2 books have been. However Keenan and Sheldon take this enemies to lovers to a whole new level that will make you cringe and not even know how you want it to end.

But B.B. does, she knows just how you want it to end. That is the most perfect thing about this series. B.B. understands that her readers don’t want to be left alone on a giant cliff feeling frustrated. She puts you back together again and makes you feel snug as a bug but also continues the storyline in a way that is so intriguing, you have no choice but to continue on. B.B. is a true “author to the readers”.

If you are having a hard time with Teddy and Ava being the narrators for the entire series, even though the characters change, there is no need. Teddy Hamilton has a voice for all. How he manages to have a conversation between 4 men and I can tell who all of them are distinctly, is beyond me. He is greatly talented and perfect for this role. His Keenan voice was so dismissive and aloof, perfection. Ava also manages to pull off a different tone and different inflections for each female character. It makes it such an enjoyable listen. This series is quickly becoming a favorite audio of mine.

AWESOME SERIES!

This review is for all 5 books in this awesome series. B. B. Reid did a fantastic job sucking me into this series and not letting go until I finished all 5 books back to back. Book 3 we get to find out more about Keenan and Sheldon and their relationship. This book showed a dark side to Keenan. There was some hot sex scenes. The story just keep getting interesting as it goes on. If you like dark read with crazy, possessive alpha males then this series is for you.

Aggreviated

I listened to this entire story just in case I missed the part where the deprivation and cruelty towards the female character was acknowledged and she got some well deserved payback and kicked the guy in the balls and to the curb.

Shame on the author for writing this crap.

I really don't get it.

the relationship is horrible. abusive. immature. childish. I just frowned and kept thinking ...WTF? the whole time. this is not a romance. this is an abuse story. If you are into that... go for it. now if you want a great book about a troubled soul L J Shen Vicious.

You were acting like a child...

So I treated you like one. Okay, so if dude is putting kids in the trunk then he does not need to be a father. I just can't with this guy. Kieran was a killer and he had a dark past. He also hurt Lake when he pushed her off the monkey bars but he even admitted he hated seeing bruises on her. I mean I get Keenan went through some shit but not near as much shit as Kieran. Not to mention they are making sex more important than the kid. I mean the writer obviously never had to go through kidnapped kid bc the last thing you are thinking about is sex. I don't really understand why Keenan cannot stop being an abusive bastard and putting her in the trunk was too much. She could have suffocated on her own vomit and he was driving crazy and throwing her around. Kieran gained control through sex but Keenan (who by the way I really loved in the first two books) was just a fuckin psychotic dick. I guess the writer is more invested in the abuse than being true to the characters. I know the dark romance is a popular thing but being true to the characters stories is more important, especially in a series like this. It just really kind of makes me feel like the same story is being repeated with new names with more violence thrown in. I hope the next book with Willow and Dash story does not follow this pattern.

Ahhh Keenan and Sheldon

I fell in love with Keenan and Sheldon in the first 2 books and I was so excited to finally get to their own story, but as soon as I started I was filled with such anger and frustration with Keenan. He had become such a disappointment with the person he became after he took off and left town after prom. He was filled with hate and anger at everyone as he felt abandoned and betrayed. Don't get me wrong, I was totally frustrated with Sheldon the way she did abandon him when he needed her most when he was dying in the hospital in book 2 even after he kept asking her to come visit. At that point, this is your first and only love (for 2 years) and while he did make mistakes he was dying! It's time to grow up, put on your big girl panties and go visit the only man you've ever loved before he dies. Drop the petty mistakes that young loves make and visit him. I know she did eventually go, but she went when he was sleeping so he didn't know so it doesn't count. For that reason I completely saw the reason he shut out everyone and got so angry and hateful, but dang...he really did a complete 180! He was practically Kieran 2.0 from the first book. I kept waiting for him to go back to his old fun loving and goofy self from the first 2 books and was happy when he finally did; even if it wasn't until the very, very end. This was a good book, but I missed the real Keenan I fell in love with in the other books and would have liked more of that Keenan here. Glad they got their happy ever after and an adorable little girl to finally make them a family.

Another fantastic story!!!

I love Kennan and Sheldon's story. And Kennedy knew who her daddy was. An amazing story of love and forgiveness!!!

Meh

Narration was great.

However, I was worried that I wouldn't like this installment to the series and my worries unfortunately were accurate.

The "romance" just left me cold.

I also got tired of Keenan constantly putting blame on Sheldon for "leaving" him and keeping Kennedy a secret, but he had constantly cheated on her in the past and then disappeared before Sheldon knew she was pregnant. Why should she continue to give him chances? I get he was going through stuff but his constant whining got on my last nerve.

I didn't really like this one at all. I'm still excited for Dash and Willow's book though.

Not as bad as Keiran and Lake's book but

... it was still pretty sh*t. I was interested in reading this because I wanted to know why Keenan kept cheating on Sheldon, but wow his explanation is the dumbest thing ever.
