His Kingdom

Owning Vegas, Book 1

By: Kylie Kent

Narrated by: Duncan Cole, Amanda Stribling

Louie
My mother taught me one valuable lesson that I’ve used to get to where I am today. And where am I? Las Vegas.
Who am I? Well, that depends on who you are. To some, I’m the king. The judge, juror, and executioner. To others, I’m just another rich asshole who owns a few casinos.
But I own more than that. I own the strip and the streets surrounding it. I own this city, and it’ll have to be wrenched from my cold, dead hands before I hand it over to anyone else.
When I spot her, I don’t sense the desperation that wafts off the usual crowd. No, she has a loneliness that rivals my own, a sadness that I want to soak in, and a body made to sin with.
What was that lesson my mother taught me? Trust no one. The thing is, Charlotte is taking a wrecking ball to that lesson because every fiber of my being wants to trust this woman.

Charlotte
When you don’t want to be seen, find a crowded place and blend in.
That’s exactly why I came to Vegas. To not be seen. I figured with all the flashing lights, alcohol, drugs, people… no one would notice me.
But he did. And I don’t know how to get him to unsee me. Or if I even want him to.
This city was supposed to be my sanctuary, a place to forget who I am. Or should I say who I was? A place to let go of the past. A place no one would ever think to look for me.
It was supposed to be just one weekend. But now I think it might be so much more…

Louis & Charlotte

I almost didn’t download this book, but ended up buying the audio version and am so glad I do. It was a super fast, easy read & although light on the suspense, the store was good. I am moving on to book 2 of the series, but honestly, I’m excited for Evie & Emmanuel's book to be narrated. Their story has me so intrigued.

love it.

Love that it was realistic. I love how all her friends are supportive. I can't wait to hear the rest of the books. I kind of want to skip to Evie's story.

That was fast. lol

It was definitely a quick MMC falls for FMC very quickly like extremely quickly like married in 3 days quickly LOL. The audiobook narrators were great the storyline was kind of rushed in my opinion but it was still good all together.

pretty good. 3.5 stars

Though it's a little on the short side, it's a good story. Duncan sounds like one of the Baldwin brothers, but pulls it off as the voice of Louie. The ending felt a bit rushed and Louie got annoyingly possessive, but overall, I enjoyed it. Only flaw was her getting STD tested the day after unprotected sex. She wouldn't be positive for anything that quick. Also, Louie hated anyone touching her. How exactly did he expect medical staff to treat her at the same time threatened to kill them if anything happened to her?

narration is excellent

My first book by this author and she has a very simplistic repetitive writing style. One dimensional storytelling. Sweetly romantic in a very short time line.
Would listen to anything by these narrators and look for more of their work ❤️
