Narrado por: Adam Gold, Bridget Bordeaux

Sell your body or your mind?

When forced to make an impossible choice, would you sacrifice your pride or your morals?

I’m Amorette Monet Black, and I was abducted. Funny thing, I have a choice. One that most women don’t get. I could stay here and be forced to share my body...

Or, I could let four questionable men take me away. Only there’s a price. It doesn't matter how much time I don't have, the choice is slipping through my fingers.

Victim or accomplice?

I know the choice I need to make, but will I be able to live with myself?

The FMC is as close to insufferable as a character can be. Her self-righteousness is giving me a headache.

Amorette Black, an attorney for victims of abuse, gets abducted. She wakes up in a living nightmare, surrounded by other women who are just trying to survive as well.

The MMCs are Lafe, Grey, Parker and Andre. They are brothers who run different businesses and live together. While Lafe is doing a walk through of the institution, he notices Amorette and decides to take her with him. This decision causes several problems for him and his brothers.

Pros: The story is really interesting and has me wanting to know what’s going to happen next. All the brothers seem interesting as well.

The narrators did a fantastic job in my opinion. Adam Gold continues to impress me with his wide range of different voices. This is the first time I’ve listened to a book with Bridget Bordeaux. I thought she did a great job. The narration style is duet.

Cons: The FMC is as close to insufferable as a character can be. Her self-righteousness is giving me a headache. I completely understand wanting to escape, so she can get back to her life, especially if the opportunity presents itself. But Amorette is still healing, has no money or identification, is wearing next to nothing (the first attempt), surrounded by men with heavy artillery, no vehicle, and doesn’t even know what country she is currently in. She also doesn’t know who she can trust and who is a danger to her. As smart as Amorette is suppose to be(we are told this several times as the reader), she continues to make the stupidest decisions. These stupid decisions not only put her in a bad/horrible position, but also could hurt the brothers as well.

amazing variation in narrators

I love the changing narrators for each individual character. it added to the depth of the story.

OTT

I Eye rolled the majority of this book...the FMC was wayyy too much trouble than she is worth.......so not worthy!!

Definitely reading the next book

This story is really interesting. A complete different perspective of how that kind of life plays out.

Good but dragged in some parts

Overall the story was great. It started off strong and ended with a great cliffhanger. Part of the middle started the drag on when she was with the brothers and it got a bit repetitive. It wasn’t as dark or spicy as I was hoping it would be- but it was a good introduction of what will likely be a great overall series.
