Hunt Me Darling

A The Darling Games Standalone

By: Maree Rose

Narrated by: Lucy Rivers, Jameson Adams

FBI forensic profiler Agent Alexandra Darling is known for her unsettling affinity for murderers and their victims.

As she joins a task force assigned to capture a notorious duo of killers, her forbidden fascination with the twisted motivations behind their crimes takes a dangerous turn.

Delving deep into the darkness, she finds herself entangled in a dangerous game that blurs the lines between hunter and hunted, love and obsession. One that would forever redefine her understanding of desire and the depths of her own soul.

She quickly learns nothing is what it seems. Alexandra's journey will test the limits of her sanity at the same time as it challenges her perceptions of justice.

Will she be just another victim? Or do they have something different in mind for their little Darling?

Hunt Me Darling is a why-choose MFM dark contemporary romance. It contains explicit sexual content and straight-up smut. The male leads are not Prince Charming. They are villains with psycho tendencies, and therefore there is stalking, obsessive and possessive behavior, unaliving people, and lots of dark and twisted content. Intended for mature listeners.

HOTTEST.BOOK.EVER!!!!!!

Oh my gaaaawd! CHECK THE TRIGGER WARNINGS! Dub/non con, knife play, stalking, drugs, psychotic possesive MMC, human trafficking, Primal play, graphic violence, graphic murder, forced pregnancy, child abuse (the bad guys, obv not the good...ish? guys) and that's not even the tip of the iceberg. SO, if you are overly sensitive and/or easily triggers then this book is not for you, save your money and walk away. If you're looking for a sweet bubbly romance... then I honestly don't know how the hell you ended up here but you need to do a 180 right now because this isnt your cup of tea dearie, this is the good russian vodka your mom tried hiding in a mt dew bottle and pass it off as such so she can get through a 12 hr workday then deal with you lil'tude when she got home. I usually dont react or even blink with these types of books, but oh this one gave me a run for my money. This book 🥵🤤❤️‍🔥🔥🔥 I loved the Haunting Adeline books and never thought I'd find something to compare, until this book! I've lost count of how many times I had to pause and smack my face to calm myself down. I love how messed up they are. Judge all you want, it's hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and I know what I like. Usually the FMC is a timid lil pretend rebel who is actually a major push over. Alex was a badass even when the MMCs were in control she kept up a fight,.. and then proceeded to make the smut even more intense 😋. When the first stalkers mask came off I paused immediately when she said his name and lost my shit. I definitely am planning to have a round 2 with this book!

So crazy sexy

This book is so wild and definitely has lots of epic events
It’s bloody and hot

OH MY GOD

I wish there was more of the guys voice but OH MY GOD!!!!! This tickled all of the places in my head that needed a scratch

It Isn’t Bad

The book isn’t bad but it’s so similar to the Hollows Row series that I couldn’t finish the book.

Plot Was Overall Enjoyable

The plot was honestly really good. My only complaints were that there was so much repetition of phrases and words that it got a bit annoying, but I ignored it most of the time. No hate to the voice performers but I ended up cringing at some parts and wished that the male voice performer performed the male lines instead of just the chapters.

Yes and UGH LOVED IT,

This was everything and the performance was perfect on this book! The flow of the story - THE PLOT TWIST! I cannot wait for the next one!

Their little Darling 😍

This story was interesting. I did guess early on who was who which kinda sucked, but the story still pulled me in. These guys are definitely colored on the Grey side 😆. Go in blind and enjoy the hot ride!

if you took a shot at every 'little darling' you'd be tipsy.

Not a bad story not going to lie I did get one of the stalkers right from the start the other one was a great surprise. their jewelry was a great surprise. it was a little monotone from the readers but hey when it was good it was great when it was bad it was a little mono tone. I would still listen again.

SOOO GOOD

I’m honestly sad it’s over. The spice was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. The spice wasn’t what captivated me. It was hot and so dirty, but the entire story kept me guessing. I cannot wait for more of the delicious depravity!

Good but wished it had been better

Definitely mixed feelings about this one. I’m glad I listened to it and it wasn’t a waste of a credit.

Pros:
- I enjoyed the story, the suspense, the stalking, etc.
- the spicy scenes were excellent and often. 🔥 🔥 🔥
- the killers/stalkers were well written.
- there were some touching moments between the MMC’s and the FMC.
- the MMC’s had a good balance of being dominant, scary, possessive and thoughtful.

Cons:
- too many descriptive shower scenes that the FMC took. We get it, the author is big on hygiene and cleanliness but the scenes felt copy and pasted throughout the book.
- the FMC did t have a lot of common sense and went along with whatever the serial killers asked. It would have been nice for her to have more defiance and not go along with everything.
- the female narrator and partly the way it was written was very awkward and robotic. It was distracting.
- there were only a couple chapters from the MMC’s point of view. I would have liked more.
- it felt like the author was overdoing the criminal minds and CSI lingo.

I wish there had been a better editor to catch some of this, that there was a different female narrator and it was duet narration. Still I enjoyed it and have re-listened to certain parts as they were well done.
