Josh vs Junior? 🤔

Review

Book name: Lights Out/Audiobook 🎧

Author: Navessa Allen

Genre: Dark Rom/Stalker Rom/Rom Com

My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

My review: Rumor has it that the audiobook is a *MUST* and I couldn’t agree more! Josh is so freakin funny, especially his inner monologue and I know that the audiobook 100% helped bring that to life. As a nurse myself (though not an ER nurse) I really related to Aly on sooo many levels. I loved how Josh pushed boundaries but also made sure that boundaries were established and that Aly was always in control (HAWT 🔥)! I wholeheartedly recommend this book and insist you do the audiobook version even if you aren’t usually an audio girly (like me!), it’s so worth it!

Review

Book name: Caught Up/Audiobook 🎧

Author: Navessa Allen

Genre: Dark Rom/Stalker Rom/Mafia-Mob Rom

My rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

My review: Whew this one was *HOT* 🥵! I absolutely adored Lauren and her love for her work and advocacy! 🖤 And her friends?! They were the best. 🥹 Now let’s talk about Junior. He should have groveled more 🤷🏼‍♀️. I ate up their spicy scenes and enjoyed the second chance type trope they had going on but I felt like their relationship (and even their characters, especially Josh) could have benefited from a little more development. Overall I loved this book and absolutely recommend! It is NOT another Lights Out, so keep that in mind as you read. I’m only pointing that out because many have expected it to be the same and it is a different vibe. 💕

... Read moreIf you're a fan of dark romance and audiobooks, Navessa Allen's works are a thrilling adventure. In 'Lights Out,' the humor of Josh shines through in his inner monologue, making the audiobook an engaging experience. Aly, portrayed with remarkable depth, resonates well with many listeners, especially those in caregiving professions. The chemistry between characters and the boundaries they navigate adds a compelling layer to the storyline. On the other hand, 'Caught Up' captivates with its intensity and emotional depth, showcasing a love that is both fiery and complex. Junior's character adds a unique twist to the narrative, reflecting on themes of growth and redemption in relationships. Although he could have shown more dedication, the dynamics between Junior and Lauren create a palpable tension that keeps readers hooked. The shift in tone from 'Lights Out' to 'Caught Up' highlights Allen's versatility as an author, promising diverse experiences for her audience. Each audiobook brings a different vibe, reminding us that while the genre may be similar, the narratives can be refreshingly unique.

Josh vs Junior
Some characters flirt with chaos, others thrive on control.. and that’s exactly why Josh and Junior are such a perfect contrast. Josh brings the wit, the banter, the laugh-out-loud energy, while Junior? He’s all sharp edges, focus, and quiet power. Two completely different flavors of irresistible.
