*Audiobook Review*
Kelsey Navarro is quickly becoming one of my favourite narrators; her performance as Shayne in Heathens had me completely sucked in and was on edge for most of the audio. Shayne goes through a lot in Heathens and after the rollercoaster of book one that is saying something. There is drama, angst, so much tension and (not nearly enough) groveling. There are also some really harrowing parts in this which took me by surprise but the dark humour is still there as it was in book one with Dill and Doe replacing Tarzan as my highlight.
I also really enjoyed more of the male POV's especially after some of the revelations about the men's pasts; Blake Lockheart only had one chapter in book one and I'm hoping we see more of him book three as after the absolutely bonkers finale I need to know Roman's thoughts from his own mouth!
My interpretation of the star system;
3 stars - I enjoyed it; would read the author again
4 stars - I really liked it; I am invested and definitely want more from this author/series
5 stars - I loved it; I engaged with this book completely until I finished it and it is one I will re-read
