Eighteen (18)

Based on a True Story

By: JA Huss

Narrated by: Ava Erickson

Length: 7 hrs and 12 mins

Publisher's summary

Eighteen is hard. And so is Mateo Alesci. Hard to read, hard to predict, hard in every way that counts.

He wants things from me. Dirty things, nasty things, forbidden things. And I have to give in. His attention is completely inappropriate, but I can't say no. The way he looks at me...the way he watches me through my bedroom window...the way he drags me deeper and deeper into his completely forbidden fantasy just...turns me on. He knows it turns me on. He holds all the power. He holds all the cards. He holds my entire future in his hands.

And I have to give in. Because Mr. Alesci is my teacher. And I need everything he's offering.

Some inconsistencies

Very, very hot but the second time around I picked up on a few rough edges that should have been cleaned up by an editor of no one else. Otherwise, a great story.

I had tears in my eyes as she described the cramping stomach as she starved, and the elicit sex scenes never repeated themselves. When the plot started to thicken, the sex scenes petered out altogether. I like that.

Ava did a good job but I often had difficulty differentiating between the characters' thoughts and dialogue. Otherwise, a very good job.

5 Smoking Hot Stars!!

What made the experience of listening to Eighteen (18) the most enjoyable?

Other than the fact that J.A Huss is very talented and knocked it out of the park, Ava Erickson"s narration was perfect.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I have to go with Mateo, he's just so demanding (I like the alphas) and I like that he pushes Shannon even when she doesn't want to be pushed.

Have you listened to any of Ava Erickson’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to several and this one was just as great. One thing that I love about her aside from really drawing you into the story is that her voice is able to switch between male and female seamlessly.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I really wanted to, but real life was calling.

Any additional comments?

I didn't think that J.A Huss could top 321 (my first audio of hers) but boy was I wrong! While 18 is a forbidden story it's also so much more. I was able to connect not only with the characters but the story as a whole. Shannon just wants to skate by on life, too bad for her Mateo has other plans. It's hot and sexy so be sure your headphones are on properly if listening in public!

Another Great one by JA Huss

JA Huss always has a great story to tell. 18 is a book about the troubled life of a girl that was a senior in HS. Trying to graduate and navigate helping to take care of her niece she ends up in a relationship with the teacher tutoring her in Trigonometry.
I love the drama that is usually in JA’s books she knows just how to capture a persons interest to keep them reading. I always look forward to her books. Narrator was also great.

love.
