His

Good if you don't look to deep.

I enjoyed this how do you. It was easy to follow and the story was quick. It was predictable and a little blasé at times. If you enjoy a story where there's a dark obsessive need for a woman who has no other choice but to submit with out much work from her captor and does so quickly than this is the story for you. There were points in the story where I found it needed a little more explanation. Then narrator was good. I just enjoy a little more dark in my dark reads.

+5 star narration & a unique story

STORY: 2.75 stars
PERFORMANCE: +5 stars
OVERALL: 3.5 rounded up to 4 stars

HIS is the unlikely love story of a serial killer and a librarian. In HIS, Ms. Dark takes us off the path leading to the typical abduction turns romance story by changing things up just a tad. In addition to creating a unique story, I was very impressed with the way Ms. Dark brought the uncommon characters to life. Without excessive or large amounts of content or terminology overtly describing either of the main characters, Dark's characters were so well-developed that I could picture them in my mind, I felt connected to them and I wanted them to succeed.

Despite all of the positive factors about this book, unfortunately there were several negative aspects to it as well. For me, what detracted from this book most were the unrealistic and unlikely things the characters did and/or said. I understand that this is fiction yet far-fetched events and actions detract from the believability of the story. Overall, I was entertained and did enjoy this book. I'm actually jumping straight into MINE (the next book in this series) right now!

I listened to this Audible audiobook and have nothing but positive things to say about narrator Carly Robins. She was absolutely superb and I will be seeking out more books narrated by her in the future!

Excellent, but not for everyone

To understand and appreciate this book, I believe a person needs a few specific qualities. This is one of the first books I've read with some real Stockholm syndrome seemingly introduced. Even so, I loved it. The characters had such darkness in them and the way they relieved it in one another was a long, hard journey to understanding. The end didn't wow me as much as I had hoped it would and although I wouldn't call it a cliffhanger, there was a lot of unfinished business and I have so many questions. I suppose those questions are still there for a reason though, for the reader to answer themselves. I would definitely recommend this one to others and I plan to read Mine next.

horrible

waist of time. even the "sexy parts" were not entertaining at all. would not recommend.

i found it very refreshing and captivating

i found it very refreshing and captivating. i had a good time listening to it

Almost good

Okay, so if I'm going to listen to or read an erotic novel, it's because I enjoy the fantasy. I was okay with Kat's ass being a bit wide. But when the killer said she wouldn't fit into his pants I was done. While I accept a fat ass and thick thighs in every other area of life, these are not traits that lend themselves to sexual imagery. No thank you.

Seriously Dark!

Would you try another book from Aubrey Dark and/or Carly Robins?

If it's like this one---and I was totally unimpressed with the narration.

Would you ever listen to anything by Aubrey Dark again?

No. I give her credit for reaching out there to add a new spin on a romance.

What didn’t you like about Carly Robins’s performance?

It was annoying. Her male voice was gravelly and not very male sounding.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

No.

Any additional comments?

This is so dark. The suffering, they psyche, what they consider love ... it is all dark. This is not worth a credit or a sale. I thought about returning it before I got through the book.
