Story
It was supposed to be a harmless kiss at a lavish debutante ball. A clandestine moment with a handsome stranger. But unlike his namesake, my Romeo isn’t driven by love. He’s fueled by revenge. To him, I’m a chess piece. Leverage. His rival’s betrothed. To me, he is a man deserving of poison. A dark prince I refuse to marry. He thinks I’ll accept my fate. Well, I plan to rewrite it. And in my story, Juliet doesn’t die. But Romeo? He perishes.

Story
I had a plan to escape the friend zone. Step one: sneak into Reed’s room. Step two: sleep with him. But when the lights turned on, it wasn’t familiar blue eyes I saw. These were dark, angry, and full of demons. And they belonged to Reed’s much-older brother. Four years later, Nash Prescott is no longer the help’s angry son. I’m no longer the town’s prized princess. At 22, I’m broke, in need of a job. At 32, he’s a billionaire, in need of revenge.

I've been faithful long enough. I never claimed to be a good man, but I've always done what was expected of me. Find a nice girl. Get married. Have children. That was my duty as a good Christian man. And everything was going as planned when I met Briar. Beautiful. Charismatic. Sexy. But marriage is hard, and after seven years, I feel like I'm failing. Then, a figure from my past enters the picture.

Story
From the outside, I live a charmed life: hockey legend for a father, my own promising future in the league, a great family, awesome friends. It’s not untrue, but it’s not quite that simple either. My dad’s advice has always been to make hockey my number-one priority—at least until I make it to the pros. So going into my senior year of college, I have a plan. I’ll put in the effort required to pass my classes, play hockey like my life depends on it, and avoid relationships. All I have to do is stay focused on the end game. It should be easy.

He was the talented bad boy everyone wanted. I was the irrelevant geek everyone hated. He was the sun...drawing all of us in. I was a black hole...taking up space. He was destined to be a star. I was destined to remain an insignificant no one. Until he made me believe I was special...and then he destroyed me. I never thought I'd see Phoenix Walker again after he broke my heart, but fate had other plans. One tour. Eight weeks. Forty shows. Countless opportunities to make him pay. The world thought he was a god...but I know the truth.

It all started with an unexpected phone call. Two years after my fiancé passed away in an accident, his father died suddenly, leaving Brad’s adult special-needs brother with no one to care for him. The next thing I knew, I was on a cross-country drive to New Hampshire where I’d be moving in to look after Scottie until I could get him into a group home. The last thing I ever expected? I wouldn’t be taking care of him alone.

If anyone ever said being an adult was easy, they hadn't been one long enough. Diana Casillas can admit it: she doesn't know what the hell she's doing half the time. How she's made it through the last two years of her life without killing anyone is nothing short of a miracle. Being a grown-up wasn't supposed to be so hard.

Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

I was never supposed to see him again. Him being the man wearing the perfectly tailored suit, who oozed an intoxicating mixture of wealth, rebellion, and sex appeal. One night. No strings. No names. Still riding the high from last night, I walk in to meet my new client, and he’s wearing that same dangerous smirk. Yes, I’m consulting for Callahan Sharpe. That Callahan Sharpe. Billionaire heir who abides by no rules, bucks convention, and is determined to complete one final project to honor his late father’s legacy. Luckily, and unluckily for me, I’m tasked to help.

So of course she isn't interested in legendary team captain Alex Waters or his pretty, beat-up face and rock-hard six-pack abs. But when Alex inadvertently obliterates Violet's misapprehension regarding the inferior intellect of hockey players, he becomes much more than just a hot body with the face to match.

With wedding planning underway and a short timeline, my best friend, Lia, has recruited me to help her battle the snarly beast that is Mrs. Beaver. Not scared at all, I accept the challenge as her man-in-waiting--aka, man of honor--and take matters into my own hands. The only problem is, with every second we draw closer to the wedding, I'm starting to see my best girl in a different light. She's always been beautiful to me, but now . . . I find myself staring a touch too long. My hand lingering for one more minute. And when she's upset? Allowing her to sleep in my bed.

Excellent Narration, Blah Story
- By Allie Pompu on 2024-02-01
Written by: Meghan Quinn
Publisher's Summary
My first love ended in tragedy.
My second began with his brother.
From Wall Street Journal best seller Parker S. Huntington comes a broken love story laced with angst and forbidden romance.
I wasn’t supposed to be on that roof on Valentine’s Day.
Neither was Kellan Marchetti, the school’s designated freak.
We met on the verge of ending our lives.
Somehow, the tattered strings of our tragedies tangled and tightened into an unlikely bond.
We decided not to take the plunge and agreed to check on each other every Valentine’s Day until school ended.
Same time.
One roof.
Two restless souls.
We kept our promise for three years.
On the fourth, Kellan made a decision, and I was left to deal with the consequences.
Just when I thought our story ended, another one began.
They say all love stories look the same and taste different.
Mine was venomous, disgraceful, and written in scarlet scars.
My name is Charlotte Richards, but you can call me Venom.

AN UNEQUIVOCAL EXQUISITE MASTERPIECE!
This rivoting love story ends up occupying a large chunk of real estate in my psyche. It's the kind of story that 'stains the brain', so to speak. A word of caution -- do not start listening to this audiobook unless you are prepared to have your heart gutted, but in the most exquisite way. I am not ashamed to admit that I ugly cried while listening to this poignant, hauntingly beautiful, intricate and soul-wrenching story of regrets, guilt, forgiveness and love.
IMO the incomparable Sebastian York, who is my favourite narrator of all time, is absolutely phenomenal in breathing life into the hero/antihero - embodying Tate Marchetti superlatively. The pain and the complexities of emotions he expresses through his flawless narration kept me enthralled - and yearning for more. TBH - SY's deep soulful voice is sublime, and 'feels' like warm honey. He was perfectly casted as Tate, but he was also amazing as the washed-up, 'has-been' Terry Marchetti (Chapter 23 is brilliant).
The author is brilliant. I wish I had a more impactful word to describe her masterpiece but it is -- just that, a masterpiece. I would love to see this story made into a movie.
Eva Erickson is one of my top three favourite female narrators and she was absolutely amazing as Charlotte (Charlie) Richards. Her narration was flawless, captivating and drew me in from start to finish. Jacob Morgan was his usual talented self - delivering a seamless sardonic, self-deprecating, and heartbreaking performance that helped in driving the story home.
Finally, I hope that this novel/audiobook and/or the narrators win some kind of an award as the accolade will be well-deserved. IMO - is it worth a credit? Abso-frickin-lutely. Trust me - the 15 hours will fly by as you embark on a mind-blowing, evocative literary journey that will be imprinted in your psyche even after you finish listening.

Just…WOW!!!
This was the first book that I have read by Parker S. Huntington and if the rest of her books are as mesmerizing as Darling Venom was then I will be reading every book she has written so far and every one to come! I was either on the edge of my seat with anticipation wondering what was going to happen next or I was in tears because I could feel the emotions emanating from the characters. It was a long book but so worth the 15 hours. Listening to Sebastian York, Jacob Morgan and Ava Erickson made the time fly by. Their voices are so easy to listen to and made the book more enjoyable if that was even possible. Can’t wait to read another one.

So many tears
I don’t believe I’ve ever cried so deeply or often while listening to a book.
Amazing narration by all 3 narrators who truly brought the laughter, frustration and heartache alive especially Jacob Morgan who’s character was the cause of most of the tears.
Thought provoking, frustratingly painful at times with a slow and sometimes reverse burn romance which was tastefully more in the background than the foreground.
One of my new faves- the only thing I don’t like is the cover, that doesn’t suit or reflect the book in anyway and really throws me off when I see it.
