The Darkest Temptation

Made, Book 3

By: Danielle Lori

Narrated by: Regina Marquez, Daryl Mayfield

"This story is dark romance at its best. Simply perfection!" (Charmaine Pauls, USA Today best-selling author)

A fortune teller once told Mila she’d find a man who would take her breath away. She refrained from telling her it would be literally while Mila ran for her life.

Having always done what is expected of her, Mila dresses the part, only dates college boys with exemplary backgrounds, and doesn’t ask questions. Not about her papa’s absences or his refusal to let her set foot in her birthplace - Russia.

Suffocated by the rules and unanswered questions, Mila does what she’s always wanted to.

She boards a plane to Moscow.

She never expected to fall for a man on the way. One with unexplained wealth, tattoos on his hands, and secrets in his eyes. But it doesn’t take long for his caress to become a rough grasp muffling her screams.

Revenge is a dish best served cold. Unfortunately, a Russian winter is the coldest of them all, and Mila soon learns the only way to escape intact is to do the impossible and thaw her captor’s heart.

Loved it but

You have to be okay with really toxic behavior. If you aren’t, skip this series. NOTE to writer: It isn’t physical possible to have an intact hymen after an IUD is inserted.

j'ai aimé, aimée, adoré cette histoire
I loved, Loved, Loved This Story!

Danielle Lori outdid herself in this book! The Darkest Temptation book was by far my favorite book in this series. She took this to the next level and I absolutely loved every bit of it.

First of all where can I find a Ronan? Because this mama wants one!

I was hooked from the very start and couldn’t get my next hit fast enough. I was so high on all the chemistry, emotions, sarcasm, and hotness! That I couldn’t get enough and never wanted it to end.

The chemistry between Ronan and Mila was off the charts. Like so hot you’ll need to fan yourself…

”Ronan rested his forearms on the back of my chair, caging me in, and watched while I fucked his fingers onscreen. ”

”When I f#@$ you, kotyonok, I promise, you’ll use ‘f#$@’ in more ways than I ever f&$#@*& have.”

So even tho this book contained off the chart sexy scenes the story wasn’t just about sex, but how two people found family within each other. Ronan may have been the D’yavol (the Devil) at first, but Mila showed him that not all people are sick and twisted and that you can let your guard down to the people that want to cherish and love you.
If you don’t fall in love with this story you will definitely fall in love with Ronan…

Audiobook Review: If I could give 10 stars to the narrators I would. They both were phenomenal! I’ve listened to my share of audiobooks and these two knocked it out of the park!
Amazon audible shows this was Regina Marquez first time narrating and If that is true well she did outstanding job! But I’m not sure if that’s true because she sounds familiar.
This was my first time listening to Daryl Mayfield and WOW he blew me away! I could listen to his Russian accent all day long….Both narrators definitely need to be picked up for more audiobooks.

Great book

How much did I enjoy this book? Well, when I finished reading it, I bought the audiobook and listened to the last 2/3rds of the book. This story has many layers and I enjoyed how each layer is explored and uncovered. Danielle Lori has a unique writing style and I look forward to reading more from her.
Some people don't like the FMC because of her naivete, but the character's backstory sufficiently explains her naivete. I normally can't stand such naive FMCs in romance, but when there is a good explanation for it, it's acceptable to me. I can see why the FMC's personality would be a good match for the MMC.
The path to love for these characters is so full of angst and turmoil, it almost made me want to bite my nails as I was reading. I enjoyed every moment of their journey.

It was an ok book, unnecessarily long. The Russian was so bad that it was grating !

The narrator did a great job reading with emotion and the right inflections. However, the Russian parts were so bad that it sounded like gibberish. I don’t think the narrator even attempted to find out the right pronunciation.

Perfect narrators.

Best book in the series and absolutely perfect narrators! Just the right amount of angst and love.
