About this listen

Payton

Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds.

When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified.

I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

Nero

The first time I took a man's life, I knew there'd be no going back, no normal existence in the cards for me. Instead of walking away, I climbed a mountain of bodies and created my own destiny by forming The Alliance. And I was fine with that, content enough to carry on.

Until I stepped through those open doors, and into her life.

I should've walked away. Should've gone right back out the door I came through. But I didn't. And now her life is in danger. That's the thing about being a bad man. I'll happily paint the streets red to protect what's mine.

And Payton is mine. Whether she knows it or not.

It’s disappointing that they have a male and female doing the voices, but still have the male do that horrible female voice in his chapters.
Found it hard to get into his parts, especially the spice… terrible mocking sooky voice - compared to the strong actual female voice

He does a really lame female voice

It started off well. I laughed to myself about how wrong her initial thoughts were when she was wondering if she looked alright and silently praising his popcorn eating skills.

But there was too much unnecessary sex for me, and many parts were plain creepy.

The narrators did a good job, but I don't think the male voice assisted me with picturing the MMC to be as sexy as he was supposed to be. I think I just couldn't stop picturing a creepy version of Danny DeVito (despite the opposite description) with a clumsy version of Ugly Betty. I seriously hope this is just my own warped opinion from being too burnt out. Pls check other reviews.

I can't tell you what it was, but I enjoyed some aspects that compelled me to finish the whole thing, even though I skipped a lot of it.

It had potential, but didn't nail it for me

Great story once again by S J Tilly. Both performances were amazing and brought the characters to life.
