Publisher's summary

She agreed to play. She agreed to be mine. I won't let her change the rules of the game.

Violence has always been part of my life. I was angry as a child, underchallenged and neglected, with no outlet for my dangerous rage.

Years have passed, and I'm no longer a victim of my own aggression. I'm in control now. A control that many seek to surrender. Just like her. My pet. The beautiful blonde who agreed to submit to my will. She agreed to be kidnapped and locked away until our contract is over. She's here to play a role.

But her defiance seems too real, her terror too honest. Watching her struggle is bone-chilling. She's getting to me like no one ever has before, seizing a heart that cannot love. Or so I thought....

Violent Delights is a dark romance with themes of kidnapping, captivity, and steamy BDSM scenes. Intended for audiences 18+ and not for the faint-hearted. Contains situations some listeners might find objectionable. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed HEA.

AMAZING, POWERFUL & BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN!!!

It is rare to find a story that truly connects you to the characters contained within, but the Author has created such a depth to them, with focus on what they are going through and how it is shaping them. She has a talent at capturing human emotion and conflict. Which is powerfully woven in between a creative drama and suspense, it is a encompassing story that I highly recommend you experience.

Both Narrators did an Amazing Job! They were entirely convincing as the characters described and greatly added to the story with their performance.

On a sidenote...
My only changes would have been to add greater detail to each of their backstories and a longer conflict during the climax of the story, so it would better compliment the intense build up.

I cannot wait to discover more by this Author.

On eggshells

This one will have you on the edge of the cushion - the coat, the mix up and the submission ... it's erotic.

Holy dark deliciousness🔥😍🔥😍

I need to steal a fake fur coat to get me my own Joseph. If this was the reward for stealing every woman would do it😁. Intensely dark and erotic. This is how a BDSM novel should be. He slowly breaks down her walls and gains her trust without abusing his pet. I was able to connect with both characters seamlessly, the only thing I wish for was more backstories on both. The narrators did an amazing job, especially Jean-Paul Mordrake, his voice was sexy and captured Joseph perfectly, I enjoyed every moment of his narration. I recommend this book and will be reading the next in the series.

Psychology at Play

Joseph has one outlet to control his aggression and it's by selecting a girl out of a catalog that agree's to be kidnapped and kept for a month. The agency arranges this girl to play by his rules as per the contract they both signed. She will remain nameless but have certain attributes. Once he has the element of surprise by kidnapping her, he will lock her away until their contract and role play is completed.

Kidnapped off the street, after stealing a fur coat and locked away in a room, Joseph has no idea he has kidnapped the wrong girl, until after he has done kinky things to her. Now what?

Jean-Paul Mordrake does a good job at delivering the warped and controlled mind of Joseph. I enjoyed Holly Warren's voice, but wasn't convinced our pet was terrified.

Was great till the end

The ending of the story seemed a bit rushed to me. The entire book was so detailed oriented and the end everything somehow works how. Seemed a little unreal.

A Dom/Sub dark romance

This is a dark romance that is definitely not for the faint of heart. While it does have a happily ever after, it definitely could trigger some listeners and is not the light, fluffy type of romance. This story takes you into the world of Dominant and Submissive type relationships with dark role play and punishments. The story was decently written and the narrators did a decent job of presenting their characters.

Just okay for me

I happened to read this series out of order. And unfortunately for me, the only other book that I had read previously was book 4, which has an intertwined beginning with this one. They were so similar that I thought I was reading the same story. But I figured out what was going on and all was good. Until I realized that they were just too similar for me to enjoy. I don't think this would be a problem for anyone else, just my bad luck for picking up the other book first and not being able to separate them in my mind.

🤗Great story mediocre ending 🤦‍♀️

I really enjoyed this book and the concept behind it. I enjoyed the closeness of the two main characters and the fact that there were no other distractions. I only have one negative to this book. It is that the ending was a bit rushed and not Thoroughly developed as the rest of the story. It just felt like the author wanted to quickly in the book. The narrators could’ve been better but once you get over the expectation then you can get into there storyline.
