Thrill Ride

Black Knights Inc. Series, Book 4

By: Julie Ann Walker

Narrated by: Abby Craden

He's gone rogue

Ex-Navy SEAL Rock Babineaux is as Cajun as they come - spicy, sexy, and more than a bit wicked. But would he actually betray his country? Even his best friends on the special-ops Black Knights team aren't sure they can trust him. Now the target of a massive manhunt, Rock knows the only way to protect the team - especially his partner, Vanessa - is to run.

She won't back down

Rock might think he can outmaneuver them all, but he hasn't counted on how stubborn Vanessa Cordero can be. And she refuses to cut him loose. Sure, her partner has his secrets, but there's no one in the world she'd rather have by her side in a tight spot. Which is good, because she and Rock are about to get very tight.

Critic reviews

"The feisty heroine and her honorable hero will be impossible for readers to resist. Walker's best yet." ( Publishers Weekly)

Yummy! Hot and action full

This entire series is magnificent. Thrill ride had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end! Rock and Vanessa had me rooting for them since they were introduced. Thrill Ride just made me a bigger fan! Highly recommend!

Thrill Ride

I really enjoyed this story. It was refreshing to meet a heroine who was strong yet couldn't control her tears. I also liked the mystery of Rock's "side job". It was very well done. My only complaint is the narrator didn't do his Cajun accent justice, lol.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Thrill Ride

On a couple of ocarina A detachment of SEALs were aboard ships I served on in the Navy and afterward as a CIVMAR on Navy civilian manned ships. The last time was 9/11/2001. A rubber boat came out of Sardinia to take them off. The personalities of the Black Knights are so much like team members I knew. This book was so good.

I want more.

The Best

Loved loved loved best in series so far, but hate the words #required for review

Another great book!

I super adore this series, and it's almost like I can't wait for the next one when I start the current one. LOL. I ADORED Rock and Vanessa. I feel like book 3 is my fave, but I really liked this one as well. So, a close second for me. They keep getting better and better. I love how the overall arc lets more characters in, little by little, and the stories are just more awesome as we go. I can't WAIT for the next one!

So as far as the narrator is concerned, I still wish for a new one. Her male voices just aren't there, and some of which are super cheesy, and 2 sound the same. I love the stories, so I can bear them, but she's not awesome. I don't HATE it, but I really wish for a change.

Great to listen too

This is about Rock and Vanessa. Rock gets himself in trouble leaves BKI to save them from his past but he did not know that his friends would coming looking from him. Rock was also trying to keep his feeling for Vanessa because he does not think he can love anyone. Now would be the best time to get the book to find out what is going on with what is happening. I will be buying more from this author.

poor narration and the female lead cries ALOT

I struggled to get through this book. The storyline would have been okay with the exception of the very poor narration and the fact that the female lead cries through almost two-thirds of the entire book. it is very difficult to believe she works for a clandestine operation when she cries at every single thing.

I think I will exit this series!

Overall opinion: ugh!

1. The Narrator voices, especially whining or overly upset will make your ears bleed. She is good but some of the voices are a bit much!

2. The women always feel small to the men!

3. Every story in this series is seriously dragged out. It could be told in 4 hours and be so much better!

Brief Summary: No need to expand on the author's summary.

Narrator(s) good but some voices are too much!
