Second generation Cynster male

More erotica per hour than most of the series but still an interesting tale. I wouldn't have expected a murder mystery attached to this Cynster, but it took long enough to occur.

Very nice mind candy for multi tasking

Distracting music

It’s always a hit or miss when listening to the audio version of a book you’ve already read. I enjoyed the story enough to want to listen to the audiobook but I found the music played during breaks was weird and distracting. Most of the time it was still playing when the narration started again. Overall it was a good listen but be forewarned of the music.

Good book, wrong narrator

I love the story but I wish the same narrator that did the 9 books before, would have done this one. His character's voices make me believe I am in the story. Katie Carr's voice is nice but all the characters sound the same.

Abridged so short and to the point.

loved it I have the unabridged. didn't realize this was abridge and audible let me buy it. I think audible should warn if you already have the book title
