Dolly by Measha Stone, narration by Michele Blackstone
I purchased the audio and paperback of this book.
I bought this paperback a year ago?? Like right when it came out. I like dark books but I gotta work my way up to reading them. I know I am weird. ANYWAY! I finally decided this was the time. I saw the audio was available and since it was 5 hours that would only take me a day to read.
I want to start out by saying the narration was not my favorite. I would have loved to have a female voice it AKA Dolly vs having a man AKA Ken Doll voice the story. I also didn’t get drawn into the story with Michele voicing the characters and the story either. I pushed through because I wanted the story. The story was where it was at.
Ok yall. This book is a little slower to start but I wanna say PAY ATTENTION to the beginning 10-11 chapters because once we hit chapter 12-13, ITS GO TIME!!! I was there for it. Dolly and Ken Doll are trapped and being abused by 2 horrible humans but why??? WELL, we soon discover why when they get free and go on their bloody revenge tour. I was there for that as well. The stuff we learn in each chapter had me saying YOOOOOO WHAT. And also, a big GASP with “I did Not see that coming!!” I mean I knew stuff would be flying outta closets but it got me good with the twists.
The story of Dolly/Abigail and Ken Doll/Brian was a good one. The relationship between the 2 characters was sweet and loving one minute while total Bonnie and Clyde murders the next!!

Who could possibly lose her job, apartment, and boyfriend in one day?
This girl.
I won’t lie. When my boyfriend took me out for a fancy-shmancy dinner, I was thinking jewelry not “please return your security deposit” the weekend I was moving in. Which, can we just talk about the fact I was going to move in with a long-term boyfriend who wanted a security deposit?
Instead, I got a lecture about not being able to pull my weight and a breakup. In public.
I’m over it. I’m over the good-paying job that kept me trapped in the wrong spot, the fear of moving on…and men. New rule: World Domination Without Men.
Period.
There’s only one thing slowing me down. That cop.
Yeah. Okay, so I may have accidentally broken some laws this weekend. Nothing big. But that hot cop has shown up everywhere. Now he’s living across the street from my new place and doing super hot cop things like cooking and salsa dancing.
I can’t help but wonder: Can I do the Single Girl Takes on the World thing and let Mr. Hottie Officer in or do I need to put him in the slammer of my big picture plan?
Now I just need to decide: Take over the world solo or risk another heartbreak with Officer Hottie?
I want to start by saying RomCom and sweeter romances are not typically my thing. However, I found these stories from Bria and fell in love with them. I also admit her narrator is on point. She makes me feel like “Hey that totally sounds like me and my friend’s reactions” when she tells the story. She is the perfect voice for the women in the series. They are all kinda a fun hot mess if that is possible. LOL
Kasey’s entire world is falling apart. Her boyfriends dumps her…she loses her apartment…she loses her job….I mean what else could do wrong. Oh yeah having to deal with the police a few times in a 24 hour period. Until Kasey rolls into the Brew and John is there like a guardian angel to help her with a couple issues she fears for her current situation.
Kasey meets a great cast of characters like Jessa, Ben, Hailey, Dean and Max….grumpy Max. Max who has seen her in her undies. Max, who is so alpha, he can’t help himself. Max who is also scared to death of sweet Jenna. Those were the best convos!!! LOL Jenna is a sweet evil thing.
Max has seen enough to know Kasey is not the girl for him. She IS the definition of Hot Mess Express and yet he can’t stay away. He is drawn to her with every encounter which makes him so mad at himself. Yet he still makes her dinner and takes her to the movies. Also seeing a jealous Max was kinda fun!!
Kasey refused to look at the reasons why Max does the things he does for her. Until all of a sudden, she can see him for him and that sends her over the edge (due to a couple extra drinks the bartender gave her) into confused heart land.
These two cracked me up. They both are so stubborn to see what could be because they both are NOT into the other for XYZ issues.
Bria Quinlan is an award-nominated bestselling author of eight Romantic Comedies and YA Issue Books (that she swears are funny…really. They are.) Her books make you snort Diet Coke out your nose or tear up and curse her name.
Addian Hevir doesn’t want a mate, he needs one…to save his clan, and himself before the beast within consumes what’s left of his humanity. As a berserker, it’s only a matter of time before one, or both happen. Time is perilously short.
Fynn Barrow has had more than her share of Mr. Wrongs. A strong, independent Mer-woman, she’s not going to be content with just any man. She needs to be wanted by one who can meet her challenges in return. She’s not interested in playing the damsel in distress, or the dutiful housewife, to anyone.
Gerri confidently pairs them, but it only takes one meeting for them both to have doubts. Can two dominant personalities find the balance to come together before others interfere and send one to their death, and the other back to square one? Or, will it take the imminent threat to drive them where they need to be?
I have had the pleasure of knowing this author for a few years and was like I NEED TO READ HER…so I scrolled through her Goodreads list of books and this book just jumped out at me. I love Paranormal and I Love Shifters sooooo yup I one clicked it and jumped in. I sat on my butt and devoured the book in one sitting.
I have not read a mermaid book, so I was excited to read about Flynn and the Lore in regard to mermaids. I have read about a Berserker or two in paranormal books previously but something about Addain I liked. I think the initial dinner failure was so awkward that I loved it…weird right??? Who loves to read that? Oh, just me!! LOL
Like Addain I think Mermaids are cute little sea creatures but hearing all about Mermaids and then seeing them in action…YIKES New found respect. Flynn is a bad a$$ Lady who will protect what is hers and Addain is ALL Hers!!
Berserkers are pretty intense people. Addain is not initially attracted to Flynn until he sees Her strength and command in situations. Then he realized that maybe, just maybe, this mermaid can handle him and his clan. Ya see, Addian needs to find a mate and find one soon or he will lose his clan to people trying to overthrow him. The couple meet through a specialized dating match maker for paranormal beings.
The reading of their journey to them meeting, getting to know one another, mating and then protecting Addains station in the clan is a quick read but I really did enjoy it. I would love to see Fil get a book because I feel as though she will be a riot!!
A lifelong lover of words and reading, Savannah Verte hasn’t quite figured out what she wants to write when she grows up. Born and raised in the upper Midwest, Savannah’s gypsy spirit and never quit attitude keep her busy and seldom idle. For so many reasons, Savannah considers herself a ‘Contemporary Vagabond’ when it comes to writing and hopes that others find her diverse offerings as enjoyable to read as they are to write.
As the primary owner and driving force behind Eclectic Bard Books she considers herself immensely fortunate to see writing from varied perspectives as she endeavors to publish the authors rostered there. Working with other writers, Savannah gets to expand her horizons every day as someone brings a new idea to the table and the brainstorming begins. There is something addictive about the creative process for her and helping other authors embrace their dreams make hers a reality daily.
That’s the official Savannah, the unofficial version is just this: a girl who loves experiencing life with every twist and turn it takes. When she was born, she had such fine, light hair that her mother used to tape bows to her head so people would know she was a girl. She’s had a host of crazy unrelated jobs- everything from cake decorator, dry cleaner, and insurance agent to Emergency Room assistant, bartender, crime lab tech and bouncer. Savannah loves air hockey but completely sucks at it. She loves good jazz, good scotch, and antiques but also old rock, a quiet tea, and a tidy home. She’s completely technology impaired and can get it after she’s broken the computer or done it ass-backwards a few times… Thank Gods that there are some amazing meme creators that let her pilfer images or she’d be lost. Lime green is her color, the rhinoceros is her logo & philosophy, and she’s completely mad about seeing new authors try.
An action-packed, second-chance rom-com about two rival spies who must join forces in order to stay alive, from New York Times bestselling author Ally Carter.
Ten years ago, they joined the CIA.
Six years ago, he left the game.
Five years ago, they fell in love.
One year ago, she ran out into the cold with absolutely no intention of ever coming back.
And two minutes ago, they woke up, bloody and bruised and handcuffed together in the dark.
They don’t know where they are. They don’t know how they got there. And they have absolutely no idea who is after them or what this nameless, faceless villain wants.
The only thing that’s clear is that, after ten years of covers and chemistry, secrets and lies, these two rival spies have been sucked into their greatest mission yet, and now they’re going to have to team up to stay alive. (If they don’t kill each other first.)
Ally Carter is the bestselling author of novels that have epitomized action-adventure YA romance for more than a decade. From the spy-centric humor of I’d Tell You I Love You, but Then I’d Have to Kill You to the globe-trotting glamour of Heist Society, Embassy Row, and Not If I Save You First, the name Ally Carter is synonymous with hilarious action and heart-pounding romance.
She is also the author of The Winterborne Home for Vengeance and Valor and The Winterborne Home for Mayhem and Mystery for younger readers; as well as DEAR ALLY, HOW DO YOU WRITE A BOOK–which Booklist describes as “What Stephen King did for adult writers in ON WRITING…Carter does for aspiring teen authors.”
She lives in Oklahoma, where her life is either very ordinary or the best deep-cover legend ever. She’d tell you more, but…well…you know…
