About this listen

There isn't a monster D'Angelo Kumar can't destroy or a crisis he can't manage, until he meets Angel Bai. The insane attraction he feels toward the sexy waiter is unwelcome, because D'Angelo doesn't have room in his life for relationships. A solitary path is the only option for a man like him, but fighting his growing feelings for Angel may be the first battle he can't win.

Angel's abilities extend beyond memorizing the menu at D'Angelo's favorite Italian restaurant, but he knows better than to trust anyone with his secret. When a vision reveals that D'Angelo's life is in danger, he will risk everything to save him. The only thing scarier than monsters and demons to Angel is never knowing D'Angelo's touch.

To say the demon hunter is reluctant to form a partnership with the psychic is putting it mildly, but D'Angelo needs every advantage he can get when the world's very existence is threatened. As darkness looms nearer, D'Angelo and Angel's unexplainable connection grows stronger. For a chance at happiness, the two men will need to call upon unlikely allies for an epic showdown between good and evil.

Contains mature themes.

It's okay

I am divided about my feelings for this story. I liked the concept but the execution was lacking. If Joel Leslie wasn't narrating I most likely would have stopped listening half way. Joel is the reason I picked up this book so even when I was bored and feeling uninterested I carried on. Overall it's not bad even though instead of proper world building we got a lot of information dump. I didn't connect with the characters much and didn't feel the spark between D'Angelo and Angel. I will listen to the next story in the series because Joel is narrating and I am hoping it will be better and less boring; after all how much information is left to be thrown at the listeners.

Not for me

I thought it started well but lost me by three quarters in. The narrator was good, and I love a fated mates storyline but I just thought the religious but was a bit too much. I don't think it's a bad book, but it's possibly longer than it needs to be.

Brought the book to life.

I love the narrator its an instant buy for me with him, so for him to narrator circle of Darkness it was a given for me.
That said, I have made that same mistake, bought books because they are narrated no mistake his time. I loved this as much as I was reading it.
I even chuckled to hear the same things read in ways I do in my mind when reading. Loved it, hope Joel does book two also his Lorcan is all kinds of sexy..
Brilliant, another amazing combination from both these Authors and Joel narrating can't go wrong.

there is a good story in here somewhere

I always love listening to Joel Leslie narration so I found it easy to listen to, my issue is with the story. The premise is good, a monster hunter is on a mission to stop a demon summoning which if completed threats to destroy the world, he bumps into a psychic who has predicted his death and now must work together to save humanity; and they fall in love. I like the premise but the story keeps taking detours to explain about everything, how different monster society's work from vampire to werewolf, how hunters are trained, how they hid this from normal people, everyones back story, most item and spell used and so on. This constant explaining really breaks the flow of the story its kinda jarring at times as it really doesn't feel natural to the flow of the story; its just and exposition dump that happens frequently and a lot which gets boring and repetitive quick.

Something else I didn't like is that the both main protagonist talk a lot about sex, like a lot a lot and not in a consistent manner. First the hunter is all 'no we can't be together because my worlds is too harsh for you' then the next chapter (with not much happening in my opinion that would change it) the hunters like 'I need him in my life, I can't live without him' then they talk about waiting till the demons been dealt with to see if they have a future afterwards so the sex means something, to literally the next sentence is 'no we need to have sex when we get back home as we can't wait'. there doesn't seem to be much of a relationship between them except that they think each other is hot and they wanna have sex, thats it really. its kind of explain by them being soul mates which felt sort of out of the blue. I understand why the author put it in there and the importance of it to the hunter especially with his up bringing but I don't know I just felt like it didn't need to be in the story, that they could of focused more on building a proper relationship between the two.

there's a few other nit picks but overall there a good story here, somewhere under all the explanations and sex talk.
