About this listen

There’s nothing out there.

That’s what I keep telling myself while I walk back from a campfire to my isolated cabin.

Being kidnapped at 12 years old by my stepfather means even the campground where I work and live is never truly safe from my anxiety. If it wasn’t for my dogs, I’d fall apart completely.

But then Virgil comes into my life.

The masked stalker slides into my room at night and takes what he pleases, making sure I enjoy every second of it. What starts as a fantasy soon becomes something inescapable for us both.

He’s unhinged, psychotic, and utterly obsessed with me. And while those things should be deplorable, I can’t help thinking that maybe they aren’t so bad. I’m just as addicted, no matter what it might mean for my sanity or safety.

Can a depraved serial killer learn to love me, or will I fall prey to the pleasure he brings?

Depraved is a contemporary dark romance stand-alone set in the Pleasure & Prey universe. This is an MF romance. Please see author’s note at the front of the book for a full list of content warnings.

I had a lot of trouble getting into this book the characters didn't really stand out to me and the story didn't pull me in with all the intense things happening I found myself a little bored, the narrator did a good job

it was okay

This was my first read by AJ. This definitely falls under a dark fantasy trope that has a serial killer stalker Insta-obsession thats just too far fetched. Take it for what it is. The whole scene of the group of serial killers talking to Sloane with Virgil (H), not gonna lie, kinda made me laugh. I just wished there was more plot and buildup. Like everyone just seemed like Okay, everything is Okay, carry on. I will give more A.J.'s books a shot.

Narrator Lia Holland did a great job.

This book has somewhat of a concerning storyline, however, for a hard-core dark romance reader this was absolutely perfect. I loved the dynamic of these characters. They balance each other perfectly. A fantastic performance from Lia.

I loved this story so much. It was a humorous dark romance the likes of which I never knew I needed and now am so incredibly happy I found. Sloane and her stranger were so entertaining together. I found myself drawn in quickly and as the story continued to unfold the words just held me tighter. I cannot wait to get more books in this series, and for them to be brought to life with an incredible performance like I listened to on this on. In the meantime I’ll have to check out more of this new to me authors work. I loved the narrator for this. Lia Holland did a fantastic job with this story and I would happily listen to her again on another one.
