    About this audiobook

    A standalone prequel to Shivaree.

    Shane thinks he's simply auditioning a new musician for his bar, but when Gabriel saunters into the Shivaree it becomes clear the man has more to offer than just his talent. Gabriel's got sexual charisma potent enough to make a straight man such as Shane lose his senses, lose sleep, lose himself to dark desires and not want to find his way back to reality.

    What follows is not a love story. This is a story about an unforeseen attraction that brings a strong, sane man to his knees, and about lovers tangled up in each other too deep to know who's in control and who's helpless. 

    Editor's Note

    Erotically Charged...

    In this “Shivaree” prequel, Shane finds the lazily sexy guy who’s auditioning at his bar is able to unlock things within him he didn’t know about. The story is brutal, messy, and very sexy.

    • 3/5
      It was just OK. Hot and steamy MM, but not much substance.
    • 5/5
      Crazy, scorching hot, spicy, dark, dirty, sexy. WOW!! A must read.
    • 5/5
      Not usually into MM but began this one not realizing what it was, and I was very happy I did. This novella is an angst ridden spice fest! I like that it's kind of an origin story, so it gives insight into a dynamic that may have been hard to understand otherwise. Look forward to learning more about these hotties in books 2 & 3!
    • 2/5
      The narration was horrible! The accent used made characters seem the opposite of sexy. Storyline would've been OK with different narrators.
    • 4/5
      My only complaint is about the accents, which were very fake and not sexy. They pulled me out of the story at time

      That being said, the story drew me in and the spicy scenes were HOT AF.

      The sex scenes were hot but I didn’t like the direction the story took towards the end.
