About this listen
Book Two in the instant USA TODAY best-selling trilogy!
From the viral TikTok author of the stalker romcom, LIGHTS OUT, comes Navessa Allen’s second book in best-selling The Into Darkness Trilogy, upping the ante with voyeurism and play club kink.
“I wanted this woman, and I was a man who always got what he wanted.”
Nico "Junior" Trocci knows Lauren Marchetti is off limits. She is sweetness and laughter, whereas Junior exists in a world of violence and depravity. Men like him don’t get to have women like her. It’s why he pushed her away back in high school and kept his distance ever since.
But when Junior looks Lauren up online, he discovers the shy, bookish girl he remembers is gone. In her place is a strikingly beautiful woman whose social media is filled with scantily clad pictures of herself and a connection to a nearby play club. Junior’s innocent curiosity quickly turns into a dark obsession. Watching Lauren from a distance isn’t enough; he needs to make her his.
“He’s ruthless; a walking red flag. Good thing red is my favorite color.”
Lauren is intrigued by the mystery man who keeps showing up at her club, who tempts her white-hot desires. But as their flirty online messages stir up a deeper form of connection, Lauren worries she’s developing real feelings for this brooding stranger. As their combined desire ratchets up to a breaking point, who will seduce who?

Story
Welcome to the Lilydale Foundation Center... home of second chances. At least, that's what they tell us it is. It's basically a glorified prison and asylum for the deranged with good alibis. When the police pulled me out of my burning home, along with what was left of my Father, I was deemed broken — even if I was the reason the fire started. So, here I am at my new home. They think they can save us with their fancy facility. But what insane person decided it was a good idea to put a bunch of young, unhinged people together?

Story
The Manipulator. I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go.

Story
I think I always knew I was going to die young. Like I had this… silent, invisible clock ticking down to my final moments plastered above my head. Maybe that’s why I was so reckless, crazy. Why I sought after adventure. Why nothing scared me… Except, there was always this… feeling I couldn’t shake that something was in the darkest parts of every corner, under every bed, closet, or room, like a ghost watching me. Waiting to take me. My own, personal reaper. But it was always only during a lightning storm that I could see the outline of my reaper. No scythe.

My life has been a series of bad decisions. Marrying an abusive man was the first... but falling for a dangerous inmate where I’m a nurse may be the worst. He’s brutal, heartless, and twisted.

After I learn the truth about why he’s in prison, I try to escape, but he finds me. Now I'm his prisoner.

In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother. Any woman who did, ended up dead—or so the rumor goes. Townies call it a curse. But I’ve lived it, and I won’t survive it again. I’m not a cop anymore, but I’ve seen enough danger to know that Laney Young, the beautiful stranger who just showed up in my small town, is running from it. She’s lying about where she came from and what she’s doing here. I don’t want her near my family or the quiet life I’ve made for myself. But my brothers have other plans.

He’s cold-blooded, manipulative, and savage. The worst part is that no one sees his devil side. I do. And that will cost me everything. I run, but the thing about monsters? They always chase.

Story
I’m a golden boy. A genius law student, the heir to the Carson empire, and the dutiful son. Or, at least, that's what it looks like from the outside. Deep inside, I have the urge to set the world on fire. I keep these impulses in check, rarely indulging in mayhem. Until one night of debauchery backfires, and I'm caught by a villain. I bury the entire ordeal with the rest of my skeletons. That is, until that night walks into my classroom in the form of my new professor. Kayden Lockwood.

Editorial Review
Lauren and Nico (yes, that Nico) serve up a deliciously chaotic blend of second chances, forbidden tension, and enough sexual chemistry to power a small city. The banter? Top-tier. The spice? On fire. The plot? I'm going with mafia drama meets late-night forbidden fantasy, sprinkled with a touch of emotional whiplash and just the right amount of daddy issues.
Also, the spice level? NASA called — they’d like to study the heat waves this book puts out. The narration for this book OMG! **top tier** - Teddy Hamilton owes me therapy. Seriously. Lots and lots of therapy.
Plot? Technically, yes. Things happen. People shoot guns. Secrets are kept. There’s betrayal, however, I'm not going to pretend I was here for the storyline. I absolutely came for the slow-burn that forgot to burn slowly and went straight to inferno.
To recap, if you're here for filthy dialogue, morally gray disasters in love, and narration that makes you question your life choices? Caught Up absolutely delivers.
Bad decisions never felt this good
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I also I have a huge complaint that is audiobook production specific… ok so we are introduced to Lauren’s roommate Ryan who in the audiobook is voiced by a separate actor. If that’s the case, why wouldn’t you just do an ensemble cast and have Jacob Morgan and Elena Wolfe come back to voice Josh and Aly?? They both have enough air time in Caught Up that this felt like such a missed opportunity and I felt disappointed by that.
