Touch of Regret

Collectors Series, Book 1

By: Autumn Reed

Narrated by: Hayden Bishop

The day I truly started to live, I sentenced him to die.

At 24, I'd resigned myself to a simple life following in my mother's footsteps. I would manage the antique shop she left me and marry a kind, stable man. Most importantly, I would never tell a soul about my psychic abilities.

But with a single, intentional touch and a vision of the past, I set events in motion that expose my secret. I'm part of a world I never knew existed, and my new allies are dismantling my carefully constructed walls.

Except, those walls had a purpose - they kept me hidden.

Now, my abilities make me a target. And my mere existence is endangering everyone I care about.

My name is Adele Rose, and I know nothing but regret.

Contains mature themes.

WHYYYYYY?!

Seriously...?! That's where it ended?! Whyyyyyyyy?! Onto the next book IMMEDIATELY. What in the flying monkeys did Autumn Reed do to be?!

no audio control

the story itself was good and i will probably buy the paperback to read. the voices were done well but there is zero audio control going from can barely hear to hurting your eardrums with every voice switch...it makes it really hard and annoying to listen to. hopefully this is something they can fix as the story really is interesting and the voices are done very well....just that volume change :(

Surprised by this story!

Honestly, I hadn't read the book before I listened to it on audio. I think that was actually a smart move on my part because I think Hayden did a good job bringing this story to life and helped bridge what others thought was a slow backstory. I enjoyed it to be honest, but I think the narrator actually helps with invigorating the characters and storyline.

Let me first talk about the story. I fell in love with Adele in this book! Also the guys are amazeballs and I can't wait to see what happens in book 2 between Adele and her 3 guys. I am seriously in love with Stowe and Noah and have added them to my book boyfriend list 😍😍😍. I kinda knew what was coming so I had to stop myself from listening to the end of the book on my way to work and during my lunch break in case I cried and I did tear up, so be warned haha. I am intrigued by the Collectors and what Adele is going to do to get her revenge. Also, her ex needs to stop and just be with the teacher haha. I wanted to be like duuuude move on!

Now for the narrator. I thought overall Hayden did a great job and I would listen to more audiobooks from her. My only critique that made me cringe were her overdramatization with the laughter. I really did not like how she would pause and super laugh and it felt so fake. If she cannot do that in the future audiobooks, I would definitely give her 5 stars. I thought the inflections and feelings were spot on for the storyline and character relationships. I really loved how she brought Adele to life and especially her relationship with her partner and her dad.

I definitely recommend this audiobook and book series! I can't for book 2 to be out in a couple weeks ❤️ I couldn't wait to find out what happens in the story so I am already 50% through book 2 but I definitely will be getting book 2 when its available (to listen to before book 3 comes out hopefully this summer!)

No volume control!!!

The book is just ok. I thought it would be better than it actually was. There is still a possibility for the story to get better if the writer is able to take it in the right direction. The narrator takes away from the story. She goes from quiet to loud in a second. She sounds as if she is losing her voice all the time. At times when you should be feeling a certain way you just end up feeling annoyed that she is so damn loud. I will think long and hard about rather I will continue with the series.
