This was my first R.M. Demeester’s book. This is an interesting thriller. Piper and Nicolas’s story is filled with danger, murders, secrets, and twists and turns. The characters are complex, and the plot is intriguing. Ri Paige did a good job with the narration.
Narration
Story
I listened to this book. The narrator did a pretty good job. I didn’t like piper she was pushover. She let everyone at work walk all over her but is short with her mom! I thought it way on too long about where she would stay now that my roommate was found dead. She is very emotional. 2 girls dead in the same apartment building. It was very pleasant to listen to.
Not too fond of this book. Didn’t really care for any of the characters. It does have a good plot. I thought I knew who done it, but turns out I was only partially right. Not enough romance for my liking.
I was gifted an Audible version of this book and this is my voluntary review.
The narrator was very pleasant to listen too.
Letting in the Dark
2.5 stars – I made it to chapter 5 before I was ready to throw in the towel. Piper annoyed me early on and Nicholas just…. Let’s just say that he didn’t strike any happy chords with me. Before walking away, I skipped to the epilogue. There were a few things that didn’t surprise me and a couple of items that caught enough of my attention that I decided to bite the bullet and finish the book.
I wouldn’t categorize this as a romantic suspense. It’s more like a suspense where a bit of physical release occurs.
I listened to an author copy of the audio. Ri Paige was the narrator. She was OK. Maybe in a book I liked better, I’d enjoy Ri more.
Story: 2.5 stars
Narration: 3 stars

This is the first time that I read a book by this author,
I had to come in for a moment. The story takes you everywhere you go sometimes you don’t know where you stand because it is just different than you think.
I had expected more from Piper that she would not let him walk all over her ..
In the end she does what is right, the end takes a surprising turn I didn’t expect,
read this book through arc team and through Booksprout i and in exchange I would voluntarily give an honest review
This was an interesting read. There were some twist and turns and it didn’t end like I thought it would. I just didn’t care for Piper. She was too much of a doormat.
