Summary

There are sensuous pleasures that can only be tasted in the night....

He comes to her in the twilight between sleep and consciousness to fulfill her secret desires. Lyssa Bates has never experienced such ecstasy, brought to her by a man whose deep, soul-penetrating blue eyes hold the promise of tempting intimacies and decadent pleasures. But this stranger, this lover, this immortal seducer is only a dream - a phantom of her nocturnal fantasies - until he appears, inexplicably, at her door in the flesh!

Lyssa aches for the reality of him, but there is grave danger in surrender. Because Captain Aidan Cross is on a mission, and the passion that consumes them both, body and soul, could have dire consequences in a world of dreams...and in the waking one as well.

One of the worst readings I've heard.

Appalling accents by the readers let down this interesting novel and the characters are let down by these

👍enjoyed the story. narrator read well

I personally would have liked a man to have, read the part of the male characters. I feel that it would have made a better listening experience, thus the 4* for performance. Always enjoy Sylvia Day's work. 😊.

Compelling listening

Would you listen to Pleasures of the Night again? Why?

I loved this story and would happily listen again. It had me breathless at times and nearly in tears at other times.

Good story, terrible accent!

A good fantasy story and writing as you expect from Sylvia, but the narrators accents were awful and I struggled to click with the characters. Not a comfortable listen.

Poor narration

Narrator’s attempt at an accent is shocking - how you’re supposed to envisage the lead male as attractive sounding like that I have no clue. I couldn’t keep listening. If she’d read his part in her normal reading time it would have been far better.

Awful!

I'm sorry to say this audiobook was terrible! not only was the story lame but the narrator could not do accents which made the story painful to listen to. I stuck it out for 3 hours of listening then gave up. I have listened to the Crossfire saga by the same author and found it a good follow on to the Fifty Shades trilogy. However this was a waste of time!!
