Publisher's summary

Walker Easton has chosen a life of solitude, and it's always suited him well. When a young lover is viciously taken from him, he begins to reevaluate his connection with Emilio. Could he have saved the young man had he resisted the deep-seated desire to belong to someone? Lost and uncertain for the first time in his life, his bravado is slipping away.

When he's given his next filthy assignment, he remembers Emilio's final words to him..."Who will grieve for you when you are gone, Walker?" His next choices set him on a dangerous path where there is no turning back, and when an old friend gets in the way, he has an impossible decision to make.

Callum Tryst is a dangerous man in his own right. Young and cocky and undeniably one of the finest assassins alive, he goes after a target not knowing that there is one painted on his own back. When he crosses paths with a career sniper, he finally meets his match...or does he? Callum learns the hard way that perhaps the best weapon against his enemy is another enemy. He finds himself asking the question, "If I've never ever cared about anyone, did I ever really matter?"

Join the pair as they mete out justice as only they know how, in a desperate fight to the finish...and the discovery that the fight is not as they always assumed it to be. Assumptions get you killed...and dead men cannot love.

was OK

Interesting characters and the story line had potential, but it just wasn't one of my Patricia Logan favorites. A little too 'insta love' for my liking and took a bit of concentration to keep track of the entwined story lines but I always enjoy the cameo's of characters from her other books - so that was a bonus.

Rusty Topsfield did a good job on the narration adding to the audio experience.

Great!!!

If you could sum up Verified Kill in three words, what would they be?

Hot, action packed

What did you like best about this story?

That both main characters are alpha males!!

Which character – as performed by Rusty Topsfield – was your favorite?

Walker

Any additional comments?

I always love seeing some of the characters from other Patricia Logan books and how each series is almost intertwined but at the same time each book can be read as a standalone.
I thought the narrator did a great job and I really enjoyed listening.

Good narrator, bad story

To say you would have to suspend disbelief to get through this story is an understatement. I had high hopes for this assassin/revenge trope, and it started out good but ultimately really fell flat with me. It has light D/s, but not overly so and the multiple relationships kind of confused me, but I was still engaged in the first half. The first half of the story was about Walker seeking revenge for his murdered lover. Aside from an overuse of adjectives in describing the men in this story, it wasn't too bad. There are no normal looking men in this book, they are all pretty, beautiful, magnificent, etc. It was a little too much. But then it went downhill fast when the instalove happens. Then my eyes rolls increased a little, but I was still down with giving it a solid 3 stars. The final nail was the "not really epilogue." It was just ridiculous and I couldn't even in good conscience give the story a 3 star rating. The story just made no sense after that.

The narrator did a great job and he got an extra star for trying to sing at one point, which really made me smile. Maybe the 2nd story is better, but right now, I have no desire to find out.

Truly disappointed, like listening to bad porn

I have really enjoyed a lot of Patricia Logan's books in both print and audio format. This is the fist book in this series that I tried and I am unable to even finish it. The plot is ridiculous, the characters are poorly developed and unrelatable, there is no sense of romance or intimacy, the characters seem to constantly contradict previously stated ideals and emotions, and the narration of the sex scenes is so much like awkward amateur porn that it was a total turn off. Go with the Death and Destruction series please! If this is your first experience with Patricia Logan you will be disappointed.
