The White Rose Painted Red audiobook? I’m straight-up obsessed.
I already loved the dark, emotional, twisty AF storyline… but hearing it come to life? Next. Level!
Lessa Lamb absolutely embodied Aurora. Her delivery was raw, vulnerable, and fierce in all the right places—there were moments I genuinely choked up. And the guys? Grayson Owens (Seven), Sean Masters (Atticus), and Devon Ryder (Elijah) delivered standout performances. Each voice was distinct, every emotion landed, and the chemistry between the cast was unreal. The duet, full-cast narration made the tension hit even harder, especially during the 𝘰𝘩, 𝘴𝘩*𝘵 scenes.
This audiobook didn’t have sound effects or music, but honestly, none were needed.
The pacing was tight, the character work on point, and I never once got pulled out of the story. If anything, I fell deeper. Whether you’re here for the spice, the obsession, the betrayal, or the revenge... this audiobook hits. And that ending? Wrecked me. Again. I'm dying for book two.
If you love morally gray characters, found-family chaos, and narrators who own their roles, this one’s without a doubt a drop everything and listen.
