About this listen
When darkness wants to claim you, do you run or do you step into the light, daring it to catch you?
Forensic Pathologist, Harper-Rayn, is no stranger to darkness. She has seen it all in the cold silence of Blackstone's one and only morgue, revealing the mystery of death on her autopsy table—until the bodies start speaking to her in eerie, calculated ways.
When corpses begin to reveal chilling, hidden messages meant only for her, she realizes she's been playing a twisted game she never intended to play. The game intrigues her, drawing her in, but if she takes one wrong step, it's game over.
The line between fear and obsession wavers, shifting this game from one of desire into a terrifying, murderous lust, the strings being pulled by a cryptic masked killer with one unforgiving intention—to claim her as his own, dead or alive.
The shadows are real. The fear is crippling. But the lust is wild and ferocious.
Fear sends her spiraling into the arms of the delicious SWAT team leader, Knight Slater. He's everything she's ever desired, but everything she shouldn't want. He's more than off limits. He's her step-uncle, but she draws him in, and protecting her becomes more than just duty. It becomes a relentless need.
As this deadly game tightens around them, Harper must decide: Is she ready to risk it all for her heart and put everything on the line, or will she literally die trying?
The Hide and Seek Duet is a pitch-black stalker romance and is suitable for mature listeners. Narrated in duet style.

The intimacy after violence isn’t presented as healthy or romantic healing. It’s a maladaptive response tied to fear, control, and emotional detachment — something the story clearly frames as dangerous rather than desirable
.
If you expect tidy grief and rational behaviour in a dark romance, this won’t work. If you understand the genre as an exploration of psychological damage and morally grey desire, this book delivers exactly that.
Uncomfortable by design

So, the female character and backstory is “washy”. The first time her mother is involved she looses it. But the story is not strong enough to accept that kind of reaction as a listener straight away.
Spoiler, then there is the murder of a best friend and lover. But the next day she lets the killer have sex with her and she enjoys it….because she likes the fear! Eh, NO, that is a storyline I can’t and won’t get my head round, especially after the mutilated a friend and lover.
I like the job she does, I like the fact she has a large and varied sex life, far too often, even now the female characters are virgins!!!
So I have 5 hours left and I’m going to delete the book….because my sanity needs it.
It’s the fear, I like the fear!
