Lights Out: An Into Darkness Novel

Written by Navessa Allen

Narrated by Elena Wolfe and Jacob Morgan

The viral TikTok stalker dark romance, burning with high heat, hilarious banter, and a love story like you've never seen before. Can you handle the ride?

I want someone with a soul as black as night. Someone who would burn the world down for me and not lose a single minute of sleep over it.

Trauma nurse Aly Cappellucci doesn't need any more kinks. She likes the one she's landed on just fine. To her, nothing could top the masked men she follows online. Unless one of those men was shirtless, heavily tattooed, and waiting for her in her bedroom. She dreams about being hunted by one in particular, of him chasing her down and doing deliciously dark things to her willing body. She never could have guessed that by sending one drunken text, those dreams would become her new reality.

I want things most people don't, craving darkness and depravity instead of light and love.

Josh Hammond has spent his life avoiding the limelight, but his online persona is another story. At night, he posts masked thirst traps for his millions of fans to drool over, but one follower has caught his eye: Aly. After reading a comment begging him to break into her house wearing a mask, he decides to take her up on her offer.

Together, Aly and Josh live out their darkest fantasies, unaware that Aly has captured the attention of someone else. Someone with far more sinister intentions than a little light stalking. As Josh turns from predator to protector and the stakes heighten, he must ask himself how far he's willing to go for the woman he's obsessed with.

Lights Out is a fast-paced dark romance with a morally gray male lead. Some themes and scenes may be disturbing to readers. Please check the TWs at the beginning of the book.

Funny, sexy and i was kicking my feet and giggling

[swansonc99 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Jacob Morgan, the man that you are. Literally brought Josh to life. He was so funny and witty when needed to be. And all his voice effects really brought me into the book. I love it all!


And Fred was my favorite of all??

I was only mildly interested when I "picked" up this book . After listening to it I freaking love it! Love the banter, humor, and characters. Honestly one of my favorite MMC ever.

[Iris Zibenberg · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The voice actors made all the different for me!!! So good!

[oxsmutxo · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

The book is PHENOMENAL, the MMC Narration? PHENOMENAL, the Fmc narration? I would cry actual tears of pure joy if they would just rerecord it with a different voice actor. It was so close to being perfect so damn close. But she drives my brain batshiz crazy

By far my favorite book ever I really don't ever read books or listen to them but this got my heart

[mari.escotopinto · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Best flirty banter I've read in my entire reading career ?

[blogsdon8908 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Absolutely amazing! I normally won't touch a book that isn't fantasy. Lights Out makes me want to look into other non fantasy books. Thanks Navessa Allen, I can't wait for the next one!

This was ridiculous ?? so bad, but funny. Male narrator is excellent. Female narrator lacked the sensuality for the role.

[shanicesmglobal · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Loved it! Must listen/Read. 10/10 ???? spice level. The narrators! Especially the male! 10/10

[teegigirl · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Okay, Jacob Morgan please ?? This was a great listen, fast paced, no third act breakup and had me laughing out loud funny.

[b6wrxjvd76 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

it was great- stressed me the fuck out, barked laughs and screamed about how they were driving me insane (was legitimately worried for them a few times too) 9/10 minus one point for the stuff that made me cringe lol

[juliediacont · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I am soooo glad I listened to this book, I've heard from other ppl that it is amazing and that is 100% the truth.
Ok now the very unconventional meet-cute, the obsessive behavior from both and the banter was the best mix ever. I loved it and can't wait for Caught Up!!

I normally don't love audiobooks but it was amazing 10 out of 10

I'm trying to keep a neutral face at the gym with my headphones on!

[aida martinez · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Sooo good! The spice, the banter, the story… everything ?‍??️ !!! I already have my best friend reading it! HIGHLY recommend

[Nikki Haithcock · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Yes please,

Oh you mean rate the book. It was, uhhum, very funny with many wicked acts. You had me, when he called Fred his son!!!! Shut up ovaries and no you can't wear war paint.

[Rebecca Pointe · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The banter is bantering. I haven't laughed this hard at a book in awhile. Chef's kiss.

[KC Cruz · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Just the right amount of spice! Keeps you on the edge of your seat nothing like a good chase to keep you going.

[Tanisha Johnson · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

What a good time with laugh out loud twists. Excellen performances also. Josh is a new MMC fave!!

[Amanda Redmon · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

LOVED EVERY MINITE OF IT!!! AMAZING BOOK. Can't wait for the next.

[Kristen Warner · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The trigger warnings almost scared me off on this one but I’m so glad I stuck with it. Cute and hot in all the right ways!

Josh gave Deadpool vibes and Aly showed so much growth.

The narration was spot on - every snarky line hit. Jacob Morgan and Elena Wolfe are really top tier. The duet performance helped bring the chemistry home and make it palatable through your headphones

[Darci · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Amazing storyline and enough consent to make it palatable for those not into dub-con. Even better duet narration!!

[Ėva Szarka · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I enjoyed the descriptive sex scenes. The backstory involving a hacker, serial killer father, mafia ties, break-ins, murder and cover-ups, felt unnatural given the characters’ prior innocence (beyond hacking) and everyone’s too-casual acceptance of these events. But overall i liked it and finished it in 4 days!

[nicole.r.gentsch · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Dark, spicy, and full of Banter. Absolutley loved it! The story and the narrators!

[Little Arcia · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Absolutely loved it! The banter and chemistry between the two is undeniable. Thank the gods for a finally smart FL and an absolutely adorable ML. Would want to read more about them, but this was a perfect palette cleanser before I diva back to fantasy.

[smcdavid16 · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Absolutely loved it so much!
The thrill of everything, the dual narrators made everything worth listening. The comedic relief was hilarious as well. The spice was so spicy it was amazing.

[Louise Stanley · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

If your looking for funny and innocent then keep going. If your looking for dark aggressive carnal moments with hourmor then by all mean enjoy the hell out of this book. Now pardon me as I prepare my throat for surprising my husband. ;)

[Ashley Copeland · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book got me over a major reading slump. Spicy, funny, and all around enjoyable. The voice actors killed it too.

[Tamika Keese · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Omg!!! Now I have 5 new kinks! This was flipping amazing ?
