Kai

Alpha Heroes, Book 13

By: Anna del Mar

Narrated by: Guillaume Dubois

Kai King has been assigned a difficult and problematic mission. The legendary Marine Raider must find a brilliant heiress who doesn’t want to be found.

But he’s not the only one hunting for her.

Cece Astor is a single-minded, dedicated scientist at the brink of the discovery of a lifetime. She has cut all ties with her family to escape her father’s stranglehold. In devoting her life to her work, she has no room for errors or distractions in her life.

The skilled, good-looking operator who breaks her seclusion and shatters her little world falls squarely into the “distraction” category.

Under attack, Cece doesn’t have any options. She must rely on the extraordinary Marine who risks his life to protect hers, the same remarkable man who might yet disprove her lonely life’s “no love, no distractions” hypothesis.

Definitely Not My Favorite

I usually like Anna's stories even though sometimes they are a little over the top. However, this one is not only way over the top but there is no real lead up to the attraction, sex, anything. And for being a smart "Aster Sister" the way this one acts in the first half of the book is just silly. I have never been a fan of Guilluame's narration because he has no female voices so half the time you don't know who is talking. His portal of CC is so over the top it is almost like you are listening to a slap stick comedy. The second half does get better but CC's character changes. It kinda gave me whiplash. One minute she is this ridiculous person and then next she just magically does a 180 and becomes a rational normal person. It was tough getting through the front half. I am glad I finished it because it continues the story line with nuggets about the next book that will hopefully be better.
