Publisher's summary

I never thought I could love a monster. Then I met Machi.

I shouldn't have been there that night. I shouldn't have seen that man die - or the face of his killer. Every part of me wanted to run and hide, to escape and forget what I saw.

But then he caught me. He stole me and pushed me into his world. He said if I listened to him, he could give me what I wanted...my freedom.

He forgot to mention that freedom comes with a price. I'm going to be auctioned off and there's nothing I can do to change that.

He wants me to believe that he isn't the bad guy. But I know better. Except...his hard jaw and full lips are hard to ignore, his voice makes my heart flutter, and his hands - his hands are purely toxic, unfurling my body with one touch.

He's a monster, and monsters lie. They lurk in the dark and rain hell on your soul.

I never thought that loving one was possible. Until I met him.

Note from the author: Pushed is a full-length, dark romance novel with no cliffhanger. This book has material that could make some uncomfortable. It's gritty and raw in the best way, but you won't know until you step in and listen to it for yourself.

I just wanted to scream

I just wanted to scream at the girl to SHUT UP ... I'm all for standing up for yourself but damn there's a time and place and she chose the wrong time and place over and over.

Goes nowhere... very slowly

DNF. 4 hours in and nothing is moving forward. Same conversations and internal thoughts over and over and over... glad I didn’t waste a credit.

Worst MC ever

I really wanted to like this book but I just couldn’t, the heroine is just so freaking stupid. Her thought process on how she should act is all kinds of dumb. The entire first few hours of the story are literally her fighting her kidnappers orders of eat this food, and don’t talk around the REALLY bad people and for some reason she doesn’t listen. It’s like whatever a normal person would do she does the opposite and it’s infuriating. Like I get fight if the orders were painful and sexual but he literally like orders her to take off a blindfold or to eat and the book spends ten minutes in her head of why she won’t, it makes no sense.

I also just want to point out that while the female narrator is okay the male narrators voice is to gravelly and low to understand.

Totally unbelievable. No one would act that way in this situation.

Terrible writing but the voice actors were good and did the best with what they had to work with. As for the story, I could not make it past Chapter 6 as the female character was SO poorly written. I had zero sympathy for her and it is beyond unbelievable that he would tolerate her behavior or that a woman with an ounce of self-preservation would react that way in her situation. And her constant one liner filled with expletives was completely overboard.

Hard to keep reading- no sympathy for her

it is hard to keep listening to thus story that begins with such stupidity. Why would a woman who just escaped possible kidnapping go looking for trouble? Very hard to sympathize with her.

A dark, but not too dark story

Any additional comments?

This was an enjoyable listen. Usually I find parts of audiobooks that seem to drag or not hold my attention. This story was well paced and did not slow too much. Liked the characters and liked the way their story was told. The narrators were also good. Always love Aiden Snow - great voice! Hope to purchase more books from this author.

This was an okay listen.

It may just be me, but them coming together seemed jarring because there wasn't any chemistry beforehand and she was ALWAYS so hostile, to the point where she could get them both killed. 🤨 The story wasn't so much about Machi and Imperial (🙄) anyway. Truths come out towards the end.
Oh well, I love the sound of Aiden's voice.
Trigger warning for kidnapping. She does not get raped, abused, or harmed in any way, just a firm talking to by her kidnapper.

Leah Holt I need more!

This is my second Leah Holt story and I so wish there were more! I loved it. I was drawn in and totally absorbed from the very beginning. I tried to stop. I had things I needed to get done. Nothing got done. I needed sleep. I was up all night. I needed to know how it ended. It’s hours later and still it has stuck with me. This story could be real. This story probably is real, somewhere, somehow, to someone. Word to the wise, while this story is a romance, it is a very dark romance. Beautifully written and narrated, it is disturbing, hot, engrossing and will twist you into knots. It will also make you cry and make your heart soar. I know mine did.

Leah

Leah,
Loved the story. It could be a five star, but, needs to be edited. Description is so important, but not to the point where the reader is screaming, " COME ON, MOVE ON." I almost didn't finish the book. I'm glad I did. I hope you take this as constructive criticism. I look forward to your future stories. Good luck.

Awesome Listen

Amazing love amidst a dark situation.

Great narrators! Aiden Snow is my absolute favorite male narrator, so listening to his voice in this book makes the character that much better.
