This was my first story by Elizabeth Hunter and it will definitely not be my last. I was engaged from the first minute until the last. Listening to the narrator made this story come alive for me. I saw these characters, felt their emotions and lived on the edge waiting to see what fight was next.
Four-star instead of 5?? Well, my friends, I DID NOT SEE THAT ENDING COMING AND I CRIED ON THE TRAIN AGAIN!!! Yes, I can hear you all saying...Toughen up Buttercup!! But, seriously, I really was a little bamboozled by the ending. IT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN THAT WAY!!!!
Ok, I've got that off my chest now. My tears were at such an awkward time too. Mind you, any time you cry on the train is a bad time, but in this case, I was just pulling into my station to get off. So, then I had to walk down the road with my head down and sniffling.
I survived and then went on to finish the story and I have hope that everything will work out in the end.
The Scribe has been on my radar for years and when I saw it on Audible, I had to give it a go. This story was fast-paced, interesting, sexy and thought-provoking. The characters were unique and very appealing to me. The baddies too were unique because they are of the beautiful movie-star looks variety. Sure, we get a few shallow and vapid villains in our reads but can you imagine an army of beautiful men setting out to kill you in the sack...hmmm...maybe not such a bad way to go. ;-)
I'm a little hesitant to move onto the second book considering where things left off, so if there are any fellow readers who've read The Singer and can give me a heads up, I'd love it.
