Story
When Kylie learns Alex's father's appeal for a new trial has been granted, she jumps at the chance to join the prosecution. There is no way James Wells can go free. Not after he killed Alex's mother and forced a young Alex to watch as his mother die - unable to do anything to save her. But the investigation into the death of Alex's mother uncovers secrets. Secrets which point to someone other than James Wells as the murderer. Could Alex have been responsible for his mother's death? As more new evidence comes to light, Kylie begins to question everything she knows about the man.

Story
Thirty years ago, Wilde was found as a boy living feral in the woods, with no memory of his past. Now an adult, he still doesn't know where he comes from, and another child has gone missing. No one seems to take Naomi Pine's disappearance seriously, not even her father - with one exception. Hester Crimstein, a television criminal attorney, knows through her grandson that Naomi was relentlessly bullied at school. Hester asks Wilde - with whom she shares a tragic connection - to use his unique skills to help find Naomi.

Story
True-crime writer Wylie Lark doesn’t mind being snowed in at the isolated farmhouse where she’s retreated to write her new book. A cozy fire, complete silence. It would be perfect, if not for the fact that decades earlier, at this very house, two people were murdered in cold blood and a girl disappeared without a trace. As the storm worsens, Wylie finds herself trapped inside the house, haunted by the secrets contained within its walls - haunted by secrets of her own. Then she discovers a small child in the snow just outside.

An Irish mobster. A missing friend. Two loyalties, ripping me apart. I had a plan. Get in, get my information, and get out. Easy, right? Turns out, infiltrating the Irish mafia isn't exactly what I thought it would be. I just wanted a soldier. Someone I could flirt with to get me in the door. That's when Lachlan Crow noticed me. Problem was, he wasn't a soldier. No, he was next in line for the throne of the Irish underworld. And he was determined to hate me from the outset.

Publisher's Summary
From best-selling author Anne L. Parks comes both a chilling thriller and moving love story.
Kylie Tate survived a life of dominance and abuse. An up-and-coming criminal defense attorney, she has been assigned to a first-degree murder case that could make or break her career. The downside - the second chair is fellow attorney and violent ex-boyfriend John Sysco.
When she catches the eye of enigmatic billionaire Alex Stone, she can't help but be drawn to him. Unfortunately, John is not willing to let her go - especially not into the arms of another man.
As John's sanity spirals into darkness, his attempts to get Kylie back escalate, along with the abuse she thought she had escaped. The one glimmer of hope she has is the unconditional support Alex provides. Ravaged by demons from his past, Alex vows to stop at nothing to keep Kylie safe.
But the closer the couple gets, the more Kylie wonders if Alex is truly her savior - or as dark and dangerous as John.
Formerly titled Of Demons & Stones.

Too Long
Readers were great. Premise is good, but this went on way too long--by 5-6 hours. The heroine is borderline stupid. A truly horrifying boyfriend rips at her constantly and she never reports him? Chokes her at a large party and she does not report him? Beats the living hell out of her and she doesn't report him? Several times characters ask if she is ok and she says "I'm fine." Really??? I know there are some situations that authors create to make the plot happen--but for crying out loud. Don't insult your intelligent readers who would have pounced on the antagonist immediately. And if you have a billionaire protagonist bf, here is a hint: he can make the problem go away in less than a page. Otherwise, why not make him a waiter or a guy at the local hardware store? I suspect that the publisher asked the author to draw this out for as long possible. What a waste of my time.

a romantic thriller
First time author for me. With a new author I often try and find something out about them. There wasn't much to be found about this author, legal background and wife of a Navy guy was about all I could come up with. The main character went to Michigan Law which made me wonder if that's where she went?
Anyway, in my experience, romantic thrillers are thrillers that have one or two erotic romantic episodes where the sex is really explicit. This one was different in that it didn't have the erotic sex but rather had a sexual tension that lasted throughout the book. It's up to the listener to know and decide which type they like best, maybe both.
On the thriller side, it was pretty good. If anything there was a foreboding of really bad things to happen and you are just waiting for the shoe to drop. The author does a good job and making you wonder if the new boyfriend is capable to the things the old boyfriend brought to the table. Usually I don't mind the suspense and bad things that happen but in this one I cringed a bit about going back to the book knowing/suspecting that bad things were about to occur at any moment.

Excellent Romantic Suspense!
This was my first Anne L. Parks's book, and won't be my last. This is the first book in the Kylie Tate Romantic Thriller trilogy. Wow!! I loved it! Kylie and Alex's story is complex and suspenseful. They both are interesting characters. The storyline is filled with mystery, secrets, danger, and twists and turns. The world building is intriguing. The story ends with a cliffhanger, and I am looking forward to listening to Revenge, the next book in the series. Raquel Beattie and Orcus Auditory did an amazing job with the narration. They are new narrators to me. Their voices are very pleasant to listen to. This is an excellent romantic thriller.

Malevolent
I thought the story line was a good idea. The story just didn’t live up to it. Kylie does everything she shouldn’t do. And why didn’t she or Alex call the police after John grabbed her by the throat and try to choke her the first time? Or go to her boss and report all of the abuse her coworker was doing to her? Alex is a billionaire and could ruin John, yet the abuse kept happening. I just felt aggravated with the story the longer it went. I’m 6 hours in and not sure if I can finish it.

I loved loved LOVED this book!
First, as a criminal defense attorney, I can honestly say this book captured perfectly the working life (especially during a high-stakes trial) of a lawyer. Kylee is a talented defense attorney in a prestigious firm. Having just left an abusive and terrifying relationship with a co-worker she still works with, she’s not looking for love. She throws herself into her career in a bid to keep the haunting demons at bay. A chance encounter with Alex Stone, a wealthy client of their firm, turns into instant chemistry.
Alex has secrets of his own, and a tortured childhood frames the way he views love. He protects Kylee at every turn, but has to constantly check his own impulses of control. Kylee pushes back, but knows that with her ex un-raveling, she needs Alex’s protection more than ever.
The pacing and writing are tight, exciting, and make for an extremely enjoyable listen. Don’t let the long length of the book put you off- you’ll be so engrossed, you’ll have a hard time not stopping for things like sleep.
