When Gabe Hamilton saw Mia Crestwell walk into the ballroom for his hotel’s grand opening, he knew he was going to hell for what he had planned. After all, Mia is his best friend’s little sister. Except she’s not so little anymore. And Gabe has waited a long time to act on his desires.

Gabe has starred in Mia’s fantasies more than once, ever since she was a teenager with a huge crush on her brother’s best friend. So what if Gabe’s 14 years older? Mia knows he’s way out of her league, but her attraction has only grown stronger with time. She’s an adult now, and there’s no reason not to act on her most secret desires. As Gabe pulls her into his provocative world, she realizes there’s a lot she doesn’t know about him or how exacting his demands can be. Their relationship is intense and obsessive, but as they cross the line from secret sexual odyssey to something deeper, their affair runs the risk of being exposed - and is vulnerable to a betrayal far more intimate than either expected.

Would you try another book from Maya Banks and/or Adam Paul?

I have enjoyed Maya Banks books up to this time but this one seems to much of a poor copy of Fifty Shades of Grey, but not as good and based upon this time of listening to Adam Paul I will not place judgement based upon this book

You should stay with the Highlanders

I love Maya Banks and she didn't disappoint in this first book of a new series. She writes books that grab you from the first page and keep you hooked till the end. I didn't want this book to end and can't wait to start the next one. You will fall in love with Gabe and Mia will definitely be reading this book again in the future.
Warning this is for mature audiences 18 and older

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rush?

Gabe's transformation.

Have you listened to any of Adam Paul’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I preferred Adam Paul's performance in Rush to his performance in the KGI series because I was used to Harry's voices.

Any additional comments?

The story was entertaining. I am not a fan of kinky sex. However, the delivery was not too severe in this case. Not a spectacular story - I much prefer the KGI series. But, worth a listen. Maya Banks is an extraordinary talent. Her range is phenominal!

Nice listen -

Let me just say this is my first “full” review, I never leave comments but I had to on this one.

The story is not my fav and I like all kinds but it could have definitely been to the narrator Adam Paul.

He is absolutely horrible, very monotone, spoke to fast, absolutely can not do female voices well. I literally laughed out loud when I heard the female voices they were that bad!

I won’t even continue this series (and it came highly recommended to me) because he narrates ALL 3 books. At this point I wish I could get a refund.

Horrible Narrator!
