About this listen
A new series of stand-alone full-length novels from USA Today best-selling author Kathy Coopmans.
For years, I pretended to be something I’m not. Drowning the beast living inside of me in copious amounts of alcohol and women. Not that I complained.
And then Victoria Hughes walks back into my life and took me by surprise.
The woman stunning me clear out of my mind the minute my mouth touched hers.
After tragedy strikes and knocks her off her feet, I expected her to come to me, yet she didn’t. She pretended we’re nothing. But I see her. I’ve watched her, and she’s fighting grief while battling an all-consuming need for vengeance.
If anyone understands that, it’s me.
Deep down, she knows the only way to ease the pain is to give in to me and let justice bleed from her enemy’s veins.
And she will. I’m the type of man to make sure of it.
But there’s a problem. We have no idea who the enemy is. All we know is they want to destroy the Diamond Empire.

The narration of this story certainly amped up all the suspense in this one! Alexander Neal and Lynn Barrington are perfectly cast as Seth and Victoria. Neal knows how to delve into the darkness, yet keep a bit of warmth in his heart. Barrington proves just how strong Victoria really is with her bravado, yet gives her the vulnerability to make her real. This team enhanced the story and made it a fantastic listen.
Great start to this romantic suspense series!

The story itself wasn't at all what I expected from the description and cover. I didn't realize the Diamond Empire was a crime syndicate, and that plays a huge part in this story. It's also a spin off series from books I haven't read, so there was a lot of overlap with characters that obviously had their own stories.
I would recommend this audiobook to listeners who like crime syndicate/mafia stories with organization members who liberally execute their own type of justice. I'm okay with characters protecting themselves, or situations where a death prevents others from getting hurt, but the characters in Concede accepted murder as the obvious outcome for any perceived slight against them and it just seemed extreme/brutal. I also felt like the relationship between the main characters didn't develop over time, it was just kind of assumed. Kathy Coopman's Sweet Sins series was a better fit for me.
I received a copy of the book at my request, and the opinions here are my own.
Great narration, but more crime syndicate than romantic suspense

The characters seemed to go in circles. Back and forth like kids. it drew me away from the story. repeating the same thing in each chapter. I still forged on. take that out the story would be even better
the Narrators were great loved listening to them bring these characters to life
brutal and broken
