Who am I?

I've forgotten the answer to that question long ago. Ever since I ran from that house, so desperate to escape, I left with only the clothes on my back and socks on my feet. After that day, I've only ever walked in stolen shoes.

Could I be a girl who is searching for the meaning of life in faceless men? They were all so forgettable. Until he came along. He took me under a waterfall and made me forget my name, and in return, I took his instead.

Enzo Vitale.

An enigmatic man who will only ever love the deep sea. Or rather the predators that inhabit it. Turns out, he's not so different than the monsters he feeds. He lured me onto his boat like a fish in the ocean, seeking vengeance for my crime. Had I realized his intentions, and that a massive storm would leave us shipwrecked, I would've run.

Now, I'm a girl who's seeking refuge in a decrepit lighthouse with a man who loathes me almost as much as he craves me. He wants to hurt me, but the old caretaker of the abandoned island may have intentions far more sinister.

It's no longer a question of who I am, but rather, will I survive?

Fabulous duel narration

I love H D Carlton and this book is no different. Her type of spice is totally up my alley.
Definitely a dark romance (breath play, non-con) and she manages to make both FMC and MMC Likeable and funny.
Troy Duran's voice is the deepest most incredible listen.

good narration, not so compelling story

there was just something missing in this story for me. not enough tension or strength to the story. I like spice but prefer if certain things were more believable than just completely unrealistic

Falls a bit flat

I'm not entirely sure if I liked or disliked this book. I had really high expectations based on the blurb and having read the Cat and Mouse duet. I thought it was going to be more of a thriller but the so called plot twist fell flat with me. This was touted as enemies to lovers but I really didn't feel the chemistry 😕 Performance was top notch especially the male narrator

Very Spicy

The performance was great, very listenable. The beginning was quite slow, took a while for the story to go anywhere but once it did, it was great. thoroughly enjoyed the character development.

never thought I'd say this

I never thought I'd say that a book has too much spice... but here I am! The story line was forgotten I feel, and it was just S scene after S scene. But not even H.A hot...
.. more slightly vanilla. Only got good towards the very end.

3 star listen

This one was one of the recommendations to me for 2023 it’s 2024 and I’ve finally got around to it because book club wanted to read something with a question on the title. I was expecting a little more from the storyline.
I didn’t really think it was overly seamless. 3 star listen. The narration was done well but the storyline is so so. It’s a bit spicy which I enjoyed but yeah I think the storyline was a little bit of a let down.
