About this listen

As a prostitute living in London’s East End, Marie is no stranger to doing what she must to survive. Offered more money than she could ever imagine by a handsome stranger, she agrees to his unusual request to be her one and only client. But it’s a dangerous time to be a lady of the night. The Ripper murders are splashed on every paper and whispered about behind the backs of hands.

In the arms of her client-turned-lover, Marie feels an adoration and acceptance she’s never experienced before. Unfortunately, contentment can’t root out the dark questions clawing their way into the light. Is it possible the man who has stolen her heart also prowls the streets of Whitechapel in search of his next victim?

Consumed by doubt, Marie finds herself questioning the man she thought she had come to know so well. Could he? Would he? Did he?

From best-selling author Amy Cecil comes Ripper, a sizzling romance laced with spine-tingling suspense!

Jack the Ripper is credited for killing five victims in Whitechapel. This book follows one of the known victims. Marie's family disowned her after she married someone they forbid her to marry. She is forced to do what she must to survive after his sudden death. I started this book and was excited and nervous because I was convinced it was going to be very creepy and very graphic. It wound up being more erotic than anything. I was still intrigued by the book. It was very intense. It had this pull that I just couldn't resist. Rest assured, the horror and gore is in the book. Stick with it. I really am not sure how to go about stating my opinions on the characters. I wanted to like Marie. I connected with her. I admired her passion greatly. She was just very quick to judge and didn't really take the time to fully think things through. I adored Jax. I can see why anybody would become so smitten with him. I wish the rest of the characters in the story had more of a prominent part in the story. This narrator. I can't even. I had chills down my spine as she did the creepy parts. She knows how to perform and execute a very creepy dialogue. I was terrified! Her name is Marina Barrett. I can't say whether or not I've listened to anything by her before, but I can tell you I'll try to make sure I find and listen to more. This book was intense. It was full of passion and desire. It was also full of blood and gore. I never thought I'd find a book that mixed horror with sex. I never thought I'd enjoy such a book. But here we are. This is a nice and short read. It's definitely not for the faint hearted.

Well written and narrated this book gives a different side of the story of Jack the Ripper in that is follows the story of a prostitute living in Whitechapel at the time of the killings. It is sexual explicit, which I wasn't expecting, and at one point I did wonder exactly what I had downloaded !, but the overall story is good. Good twist at the end and I understand there is a follow up book that hopefully will appear on Audible.

Enjoyable.

Who would think that a story about Jack the Ripper could be sensual and alluring? Amy Cecil weaves a romance around the horrific murders sure to keep you entranced, full of doubt and falling in love. Marie is at a low point. A prostitute making her way, she is propositioned by a handsome rich gentleman to be exclusive to him. Jax is taken by Marie and has to have her. Now with the murders happening, and unexplained absences by Jax, there is doubt lingering in Marie's mind. Is it enough to make her believe he is the murderer? Fast paced, steamy and completely surprising even at the end, we all wonder and we all doubt and we all fall in love. The twist is unexpected and left me wanting to know more and am anxiously awaiting the next story Cecil has for us.

Marina Barrett brings this story to life with an amazing performance. Her accent, her voices and her inflections kept me intrigued the entire time. I loved her portrayal of the story, a perfect fit as the narrator.

Audiobook review. This book had me riveted from the very start. I absolutely loved it! I went in not knowing what to expect and was soon invested in Marie and Jax. Their suspicious beginnings, their unbridled passion, their unlikely love, their conflict and THAT ENDING. I’m still digesting it weeks later.

This was great story building from beginning to end. The plot, characters, prose, pacing, foreshadowing, conflict and climax were executed phenomenally. I couldn’t put it down.

The narrator, Marina Barrett, could not have been more perfect for this story. She did a great job with her accent, tone, pitch, pace and I couldn’t imagine a better Marie.

I am definitely looking forward to what happens next.

Complementary copy received and voluntarily reviewed.

LOVED IT!

Umm..... WHAT! This book will have you questioning everything and everyone and even in the end you will be wondering. I believe I know who it is, but can’t say for sure.... all I can say is if you like mysteries that may not be solved this is the book for you! I really hope there will be another book in audio soon.
