Pure Lust: The Complete Series Box Set

SADLY DISAPPOINTING & VERY ANNOYING

First, when a book is entirely told from the heroine's POV you'd think that they'd get a female narrator - right? wrong!! and I just don't understand why not as it would've been a far better listen if they had. Next comes Gabriella the frustrating heroine.. she was so weak and not at all likeable - she had mind blowing sex with Flynn then shortly after that got engaged to his half brother Edward WHILE thinking about Flynn. She moved in and continued to physically commit to unsuspecting Edward while mentally dreaming of and secretly panting for Flynn.. and eventually she cheated. Third.. descriptions were lacking and my mental images had gaping blanks. Fourth.. Gabriella's bff was no friend - although I don't blame Edward at all!! Fifth (and final).. the title (and cover) were deceiving.. this was not pure lust - yes, there were sex scenes but they were only sprinkled throughout the plot.

Worth a credit? For me NO it wasn't - but just because this book didn't ring my particular bell who knows - it may well be your next great listen.

Typical Bad Boy Trope

The twists were as interesting as they were predictable. Of course the a-hole bad boy with a hidden hurting heart begging to love is the irresistible secret half brother of the charming alternative love interest who is WAY too good for the main character. Honestly I don't know why the male characters bother with her. Other than her looks the author didn't lend much else to the character - certainly no depth other than omg he's so hot I want him but oh no his brother is such a great guy. PASS.

Happy Ever Ick

It was weird to have a male reader for books told from a females POV. The whole time I was hoping that this is the chapter we get the male POV. As for the story it seemed to get drawn out. I think I was just getting frustrated with the cluelessness of everyone. Gabiella was a mixed bag for me. I liked it when she stood up for herself, but I hated that she was so self righteous. The book was just good enough to keep you listening while thinking when's this going to end.

not for me

Couldn't finish this one. Spoiler alert - once she found out she's slept with both brothers and did not tell her fiance I had to stop. She wanted to make it on her own but would marry a man with that kind of secret. Nope that was it for me.

Why do you have a man reading a female's POV?

This entire book so far has been about Gabriella. It has been her point of view completely, yet a man is reading it and not trying to sound at all like a woman. He has a nice voice and had this book included Edwards POV I may have enjoyed him but I just can't listen to this book anymore. I never quit on books but I didn't even get through the first one in this series.

Dry mouth narrator Yuk!

There should be a boycott of narrators that don't hydrate before reading!!! Not trying to take away from the story though. That's pretty good.

love it . hope they make another book after this.

narrator was awesome make a next book . sad its done. Please make another book.
