About this listen
From the author of the Audie Award-winning and the New York Times best-selling Marriage Games comes a deeply intense new series.
Everything is going to be perfect. Greyson comes home from deployment to live the life she and her husband Caden dreamed of. He has a surgical residency, and she has a psychiatric practice in the basement of their Manhattan brownstone.
Caden loves his wife more than he can measure. But he starts hearing whispers. Someone else loves her. Someone else wants her. There's someone else, and though whoever's behind the whispers will move mountains to have her, Caden will move heaven and earth to keep her.
Greyson will never break her vows, even as their marriage snaps apart one piece at a time; even as the line between reverie and reality blurs; even as Caden demands control, and Greyson cedes it. She will never, ever turn her back on him. When their marriage crumbles, her resolve shakes and love becomes the one thing holding them together.

There’s a lot of disturbing stuff here, so it’s a tough read. It can become overwhelming at times, even without any trigger. Emotions are deep and beautifully described with details, evoquing memories and sounds and scents. There’s love and pain, courage and surrender, determination and despair… You have to let the words take you under the surface.
Here the SM isn’t really fetishized. They both need that kind of relationship, but it’s brutal, violent, and although there’s pleasure, there’s also a lot of pain. Both physical and psychological. I didn’t feel it was sexy, it was mostly heartbreaking.
I enjoyed reading about mental illnesses and trauma. Not because it was pleasurable, but because it was interesting and educational–sort of. Everything about PTSD and Caden’s struggles was fascinating.
The duet narration of the audiobook was perfect for this story. It gives another dimension to the book, and the narrators did a great job with all the emotions–or lack of sometimes. A difficult book, but one you don’t want to miss.
