Always amazing to listen to one of, if not, my favorite author's books. Every one makes love feel magical and sprinkled with just enough spice to feel gratifying while not sidebarring the story.

A great ending to the trilogy
This was a great ending to the series. It actually had me teary-eyed a few times. The story was great; however, the narration left a bit to be desired. One shouldn't try to do accents if they aren't exceptionally good at it, or you risk, as in this case, bordering on offensive.
One critique of the story itself, verbosity and the over-use of several descriptors. Was it really necessary to refer to Omar, repeatedly, as "the Indian man?" It comes across as almost racist. Use his name, we know his background, and also, the narrator should have skipped attempting the accent. Additionally, a thesaurus would have helped the author's overuse of "Siberian blue eyes" and "billionaire;" we get it already!
I was able to overlook the few technical issues, as the core story was solid.
Does anyone happen to know the color of Bane's eyes? I don't think it was mentioned enough lol.
