Kailee has done it yet again! This prequel captivates you at once and pulls you in quickly and you can’t stop reading. Intense, thrilling, heart-breaking and very dark in true Kailee style. Buckle your seatbelts and hang on!
If you want the best experience and to fully immerse yourself even further with the main antagonist in “Unspoken”, please do read the duet “She/He” and do heed Kailee’s warning in the foreward, these books are very taboo and very very dark but so worth it if you can handle the subject matter.
On pins and needles waiting for “Hey Pretty”!
This book is all kinds of dark, sick, twisted goodness! If you have read Kailee’s books then you know what you are in for. This story picks up after the She/He series and is an intense look into the mind of a nutcase that is Martin “Red” Blum. With Sal taking the case on, he is looking for answers but what he gets is the actions of a psychopath. And just when you think you may feel bad and understand…BAM more crazy! We get this whole different side of Sal’s role as agent unlike his Dom and the Juliet world which is so amazing and you can just see his growth. And as is pure Kailee, she throws us another gut twister and ends with our hearts and minds breaking! This is a must read in the series and I am anxiously waiting for Hey Pretty!
This is the first book I’ve read by this author and thought it was a safe bet being a prequel. Firstly, I don’t normally read book reviews before I read the book because I don’t want my opinion influenced by what someone else thought about the author’s writing or direction of the book. Secondly, I wish I had read the reviews before hand. Then I would’ve known about this being a branch off from She/He and could’ve gotten the backstory first. That being said, of course, I was a bit lost at the beginning while trying to put together the pieces of the puzzle Kailee Samuels has so cleverly laid out. Not to worry. Just go in with the mind set knowing this is an interview with a damaged man. We do get the background on the characters, I just had to really pay close attention because I was learning them for the first time, rather than returning to find out something new about someone I had already met. verall, this was a gripping, dark thriller about an agent who tries to uncover the pieces of a case. I was quite intrigued with not only the storyline but characters as well. The twists and turns absolutely made it impossible to put down until I finished. I can’t wait for the next one.
Unspoken
This is an intense twisted read with so much
personal insight, that the hours flew by. I
almost felt sorry for Red, but my man will
always be Sal. Sal is one man I would never want to cross. I just love this character so much!
Holy dark and delicious and everything my brain needed. This book truly captured my soul in a dark psychological way and my mind is left here reeling and anxiously awaiting more. I have no idea who to really trust and my heart is right here in the mix of everyone trying to figure this all out. Red is a true psychotic and is keeping Sal on his toes in a delicious game of cat and mouse.
This book is NOT for the faint of heart as it is dark and loaded with triggers however if you are open to a deliciously dark book you have found it
This is a shorter story that’s a prequel to Hey Pretty. It involves Sal interrogating Red. It’s not as dark and messed up as I thought it would be, but I’m sure the next book will have it in spades.
I kind of figured what happened would, but I can’t wait to peel back all the layers of this underworld to see what’s all involved. Knowing Kailee, what we think we know, is probably totally backwards.
Twists and turns and expect the unexpected ride of chasing demons. This Author does a fabulous job of capturing the audience, surprising twists, and keeping you on the edge of your seat with anticipation and suspense. Cannot wait for the next one!
OMG!!!! WHAT did I just read. This story is emotional, grimy, scary, and intense. It was just to much to handle all at once. To get in the mind of two people one a Monster and the other a Psycho is brilliant. Kailee you did a great job of that. You had me on edge from beginning to end. I truly enjoyed this ride. Great job!!!
This was a well written book with plenty of twists and turns and suspense in the world of Sal. There are so many questions to be answered and just how Sal will get those answers will be an interesting read. This by far was a very suspenseful read. Kept me interested and wanting more the entire time. The taboo sexual interactions between the characters had my heart pounding and the fine line between good and evil is blurred. It shows the broken and twisted and how the interaction between the two can be a torment for both Red and Sal. Loved this book.
“My heart is terminally pitch black and radiates for one—my sister.”
Salvatore Raniero is back in this gripping new thriller. Unspoken is a spin-off novella of the beautifully dark She/He duet. We follow Agent Sal Raniero as he tries to uncover the missing pieces in the mysterious case of Martin “Red” Blum, Jr. Kailee Samuels is never one to stay inside the box so expect shocking twists and turns that will leave you speechless. At times I caught myself feeling for Red, which is not an easy task with a character of his nature. Whether you are new to Sal, having only read She/He, or are a Sal lover for life, you will be enraptured by this tale and left desperately yearning for more.

WOW!!! This was a dark twisted captivating no holds barred, what ever your thinking think again. To be inside Sal and Red’s heads would be fascinating as these two go head to head into the darkness. Red is the abuser and predator and I had mixed feelings as he tells pieces of his story with all the feelings and pity then BOOM things start happening and your biting your nails, I loved Sal’s character and every action he took it was so exciting, he is a force. The writing is amazing as its draws you in and doesn’t let go and leaves you wanting more and I cant wait.
Dark, twisted and definitely not for the faint of heart. This story was a fantastic ride. Sal and Red are two sadistic characters that I actually found myself wanting to sympathize with based on circumstances. I wanted to really dislike Red but could see him as a relatable character even if it is not in the best light because of his struggles. Sal had me feeling all kinds of emotions as well on both sides. A hell of a read and Kailee has such a way with her writing that never disappoints and always makes me want more. I cannot wait for Hey Pretty.
KRS has done it again! She was able to give me some dark read that didnt make me want to shy away. I was like an addict sucking up every word on the page till I hit the last one and went thru withdrawals. I cant wait to get my hands on the next KRS work of art. She gets me….she loves me…she gives me what I need in a story.
wow i dont even know wwhat to say about this book other then OMG. this book was a very dark twisted intenst read that just had me hooked. i almost through my phone at the ending because iu was wanting more of this intense read. thius is a must tead if you like fast pace moving books that will have you hooked from the very begining.
Unspoken takes the reader on a dark, intense and twisted ride with Sal and Red. This story picks up after the She/he duet so I highly recommend you read them first to understand what’s going on. I loved getting to know more about Red and his life and learning why he is the way he is. Plus we get to see Sal in a different light as an agent. Another captivating prequel that I couldn’t put down until the very last page leaving me anxious to read Hey Pretty.
Absolutely love it, KRS has yet again blown my mind with her twists and turns, leaving me breathless with anticipation for her next book. Unspoken is about getting a look into Red’s mind with the incredibly delicious Sal interviewing him, I seriously need more. A must read
Must read She/He duet. As always I’m left wanting more. I can’t wait for the next book! For those that are fans of this author & Sal we are going to finally see him do what he is trained for. I almost feel for Red.
Kailee Samuels is a phenomenal writer and in Unspoken (Hey Pretty Prequel), she has outdone herself again. This book will keep you on your toes. With her genre-blended writing style you get a dose of reality, because not everything is perfect.
Unspoken is a really intense dark thriller in which you get Sal’s and Red’s point of view. You’ll learned more about the relationship of Red and Natalie. When Red tells about his life story I couldn’t help feel bad for him even though he’s a psychopath, a rapist and a murderer. Then I’ll remember that he wants to see Sal’s demise and stop feeling bad for him. Give it a try is a great book that would get you enthralled and wishing you had (Hey Pretty) to start reading as soon as you finish this one. Someone once told me that when the book is great, it’ll pass days or weeks and you’ll still be thinking about it and let me assure you I’m obsessed with this prequel.
Kailee Samuels has blown me out of the waters once again!
“Red cautioned this would change me, he never said it would break me.”
Wow what a ride into Sal and Red’s delicious, calculating minds!
The author makes you feel every little emotional detail in these men’s minds. Agent Sal’s mind is that of the holy man and the trained killer. Red’s mind is of a sociopath that sucks you in wanting sympathy by the way he was raised and his actions. His sick and perverted obsessions. The devil himself toying with your mind.
Unspoken is a dark and twisted thriller prequel to the full length Hey Pretty. I can’t even imagine what Kailee Samuels has in store.
Definitely not for the faint of heart.
Dark ,Twisted and psychological it pulls you into the mind of a psycho.From the 1st page to the last,I couldn’t put it down.
Red is still sick and twisted as he always has been.His parents and older sister Heidi are dead and his obsession is on Natalie .He won’t let her go and will do what he has to get her back.Taking out anyone who gets in his way.
Sal is tasked to interrogate Red,what he would really like to do is take him out.They want information and will keep at Red till they get it.
