Can't Believe It!

So mad right now - I swore I would not listen to another audible book that was a duet, trilogy, series, etc., until all books were available. How do you avoid this, when the publisher, author, or whoever doesn't announce this fact before you purchase. What I thought was a stand alone obviously is not - I read the audible reviews and no one mentioned it ended completely unfinished, left me hanging and who knows for how long - probably until I have forgotten what I just listened too, as I devour audios at a rate of 5 -7 per week. The book is amazing - the narrators are amazing - you will enjoy it, however you will be left hanging - I wish someone had warned me - I feel I needed to pass this on. No clue when the continuation will be available. Love audio, but getting really burnt out on being deceived.

Forbidden romance?

I love this book but I wish it was mentioned in the blurb that it’s a cliffhanger... Great storyline with good progression Characters descriptions is good, they all feels familiar after a while. There’s lots of feelings and the author has a way of getting the emotions through in her story. Steamy love scenes Samantha is strong and Liam is stubborn, it’s a turbulent relationship growing between them. Narrators: Very good voices that has clear pronunciation and passionate reading. If you like a hint of forbidden love and a cliffhanger I recommend you listen to this. Even with the cliffhanger it’s worth it. Next book please!!! 5 stars 🎧 AudiobookObsessionReviewer

The Perfect Push Out of My Comfort Zone

I'm not generally a fan of age gap or taboo romances, but Liam and Samantha's story really sucked me in! Skye Warren really took me out of my comfort zone with this forbidden love story between a ward and her guardian. Even though there are 16 years that separate Samantha and Liam, I found myself amazingly rooting for them by the end. The fact that I was able to look past all the things that would have warning bells going off in my mind as a parent, is a true testament to Skye Warren's brilliant storytelling. The angst is super high in this one, but it's balanced well with the suspense and mystery surrounding Samantha's past and the more intimate moments. I'm very intrigued by the North siblings and hope that we will see books for them in the future as well. Teddy Hamilton's narration is wonderful as always, but I'm more used to him as the sweeter hero, so it was an adjustment to think of him as the ultra-alpha and gruff Liam North. Grace Grant's performance was good, but I felt her voice was a bit too mature for 17 (almost 18) year old Samantha. Hamilton and Grant worked well together though and overall, it was a pleasant listening experience (though I enjoyed Hamilton's narration more). Listeners should note that this is book 1 in a trilogy, so be prepared for a cliffhanger. As far as cliffhangers go, it wasn't terrible at all, but it's something to keep in mind. I'm excited to see what's next for Liam and Samantha! 🎧 Audiobook Obsession

Overture

*This book ends in a cliff hanger* I wasn't aware of that before starting the book but the second book is soon to be released. Samantha Brooke is an almost 18 year old child prodigy. She has an amazing talent with the Violin and is soon to start going on tour. When her father died 6 years ago Liam North took her in as his legal guardian. Now that the clock is ticking down to her 18th birthday, a lot of things are about to change, secret revealed, and the temptation between them both is starting to become unbearable. This was an amazing read (listen). Liam is dark, and captivating. The whole story has a seductive and forbidden feel as Liam is 16 years older than Samantha, but there is so much more to the story than the forbidden fruit story line as there are many twists along the way that must be revealed. All throughout both Liam and Samantha feel wrong about their desire for each other. Can not wait for the second book to be released. The Audio for this book was beautifully done. This was the first audio I've listened from Teddy Hamilton and Grace Grant but they did a wonderful job matching the voices for each of the characters. #AudiobookObsession 🎧AudiobookObsession

4.75 STARS

Forbidden, steamy and mysterious! I love age gap romances and this one did not disappoint. The H pushes the h away for most of the book making this a very slow burn. It's a trilogy and does end in a bit of a cliffhanger that I did not see coming. The secondary characters were great! Narration Teddy was fantastic! His voice is perfect for the alpha characters. 5 stars Grace Grant is also great but I did feel that she her voice sounded too old for a 17 year old. 4 stars ☆Audiobook Obsession ☆

A true masterpiece

When the one thing you crave is the only thing you can never touch. Overture is an addictive listen. Absolutely everything you could want in a forbidden romance. It’s well written and perfectly narrated. I would recommend this for anyone who enjoys forbidden/taboo, OTT Alphas, steamy angst and suspense. I can’t wait to continue on in this series. 🎧AudiobookObsession

Hit me right in the feelings.

Samantha Brooks, child violin prodigy, has had to deal with more in her short life than anybody should. At the age of 17 she has traveled the world, perfected the violin, lost her mother and then later her father, been uprooted and is now living with her guardian Liam North. She has always done whatever it takes to please everybody, including Liam, she’s scared he will kick her out if she ever steps out of line. She’s getting ready to leave on tour after graduation and she’s slightly torn about it since she has feelings for Liam that are no where near parental. Liam North owns a security business, he took Samantha in when she was only 12 and he has been raising her for almost 6 years now. Samantha doesn’t know the story as to how Liam became her guardian, that’s one of his darkest hidden secrets and he knows it’s best that she never find out. Samantha has an unrequited crush on Liam, but is it really unrequited? She thinks so, but truth is Liam feels a carnal need for Samantha that he’s never felt before with any other woman. Hell, any other person at all. Liam had a hard childhood, he isn’t capable of love but he can’t help his desire for Samantha even knowing it could destroy the both of them. This book is dark and ominous, I knew there was something bad that connected the two but I wasn’t expecting the turn of events in this book. There are still so many questions left to be answered and when I finished I just sat there knowing there was no way she would leave it like that. The cliffhanger was unreal! It’s like walking down the street and then the earth just all of a sudden ends and you are free falling, just waiting to hit the rocks at the bottom. This book left me breathless and exhilarated. I am so ready for the second book to find out what happens. There are so many hidden clues that once they are revealed I had to stop and wonder how I could’ve missed them! This was my first Skye Warren book and I am definitely hooked! This was a fast read for me but it did not lack anything! It was so good I just devoured it! I couldn’t walk away, I just had to know what was next. I definitely recommend this book. Teddy Hamilton and Grace Grant brought life to this book! I thought I loved it when I read it, but I had no idea it could get this much better!

Taboo and Fabulous!

This a story about Samantha & Liam. Sam is a violin prodigy and Liam's ward. She has been since she was a child. Now Sam is turning 18 and getting ready to go on a world tour. Both Sam and Liam are anxious about the tour. We see pretty early on that both are very attracted to each other and by the end of this book they act on those feelings.. Liam is very possessive with Sam. He owns a security agency and he keeps a tail on her at all times. Liam is less than forthcoming with many question's Sam has, which leads to turmoil in their relationship. This books ends on a little cliffhanger. I love that this has duel narration. Teddy & Grace do an amazing job of bringing the characters to life. I love Skye and this is probably the 10th book I read by her. She is amazing! #AudioObsessionReviwer.
