Benga's Rise

Book Two

By: L. Ann Marie

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Book Two shows us Raid and a not so typical start to his all-in with Lorelei and her son. Gangs, dicks in dishes, casts, braces and Cort make this one of the funniest books yet. Jump into the Phoenix laughs and the tears for our alphabet kids.

Love this series,

Raid, is VP at Phoenix and has been friends with Cort and most of the inner circle since childhood. Raised by a single dad, his friends mom's treated him as their own. Like Cort he is college educated, though his focus is on business management.
Loreli's ex abandoned her and their son. Her new job as Phoenix Raising director of HR, is getting them back to good. Her ex puts her in the hospital before she even starts. Cort and Raid intervened. Cort puts them with Raid for safety and her healing.
Raid and Lorelei develop an easy friendship. Her son L/Leo/Daniel and Raid become close. Everyone can see they belong together. Raid is in no rush. Lorelei 's insecurity 's may end them before they begin.
Fast paced sweet and steamy with plenty of badass. The brothers of Phoenix make some powerful alliances, who help they with an unexpected betrayal. Web takes on more responsibilities, he an his boys will need even more protections. The FBI, Princes and Badass have put their hands out and pledged their support.
Loved the change in the virtual voice used for Raid, just what I thought he might sound like. Would fit Trask too. Hoping to see the rest of the series make it to Audio, Falcon is a favorite of mine. Hoping to see the related series as well.
