About this listen
Alyssa Jackson is one of the lucky ones. She has a thriving business, great friends, a devoted husband, an adorable daughter, and a scorching hot sex life that would be the envy of any married couple. Then, one tragic loss flips her world upside down. Floundering and unsure of how to cope with their grief, Alyssa and her husband drift apart until they are living as roommates instead of a deeply connected couple. Alyssa will do anything to get the intense passion back into her life and marriage, no matter how far out of the box she has to step.
If there is one thing tattoo shop owner Derek knows, it's that once he set his sights on his wife, he never wanted another woman. Years together haven't begun to put a dent in his desire for her. But everything falls apart when the anguish of loss barges into their lives. Adrift in his own suffering, Derek doesn't realize how damaged his marriage is until his wife forces him to confront their issues. Now, he'll do whatever it takes to get their lives back on track, even if the plan seems outrageous.

Story
After ten years away, Marcie finally ventures back to where she grew up. She isn’t in town for twenty-four hours when she crosses paths with Hook and Striker, the two boys who kept her safe and happy as a young girl. Only they aren’t boys anymore. They are fully grown, muscular, alpha men. Members of the No Prisoners Motorcycle Club. All through her teenage years, Marcie’s heart belonged to Hook. Not that he ever seemed to notice. And it appears that as an adult, not much has changed with regard to her feelings toward the sexy biker. But a bossy, alpha man is not what independent Marcie is looking for. The moment Hook lays eyes on Marcie, it’s as though the last ten years apart never existed.

Emmett Lasker is impossible to work for. He might be model handsome and stupidly wealthy, but he also has it out for me. He’s given me more last-minute and weekend requests than anyone else, ruining any plans I make. I should quit. And I will. Just as soon as I hit my two-year anniversary and earn out my signing bonus. But after a particularly awful day at work, a breakup (via text!), and my computer crashing, I’ve had enough! So at 11:59 Friday night, I barge into Emmett’s office to tell him what I really think of him. Only, that’s not what happens. AT ALL.

Jenna tried to get out of our corrupt town, but it pulled her back in again. Now she needs help. I'll do all of that for her, if she'll just shut the hell up and let me. She can even keep all of her secrets, except for one.

A couple torn apart by grief
Let me start by saying that Lilly Atlas is one amazing author and Noah Michael Levine and Erin deWard for an amazing pair of narrators. So when combining these three persons it is more than obvious that the result would be at least great!
I went into this book with so many expectations, knowing the author’s talent to create drama and to bring comfort in the end to the characters. All went well, with one small exception, which I will comment later in this review. But first let’s start with the good points. We have husband and wife trying to find each other after the loss of their only child. Their grief and inability to communicate brought them to the point of not being able to connect again. We later find out that, through the help of a psychologist, they have a series of dates in which they should pretend to be other people, meet and have an evening that should end in … a steamy situation, if you know what I mean! And so this happens, until one point.
Alyssa and Derek have managed to survive so much in their years as a couple, even PTSD. However, they were not able to stand the passing of their daughter. The author managed to express so well their pain and the process of coming together, it was impossible for me not to shed a tear or two. We have a step-by-step description of the phases they go through and that’s perfect. We have some extremely hot scenes that would increase your heart rate and, as mentioned, two narrators that are simply perfect!
However, I am missing from the story some information regarding the two years they have been apart. For me, not knowing how exactly the distancing happened makes the story a bit incomplete. By the end, I understood that the focus was more on how they come back together, but still, I wanted to see them fighting, or arguing or something like that.
All in all, I cannot but give 3.5 stars to Lilly’s book and I am so waiting forward to read/listen to more of her books. She is an author that manages to touch my heart and her stories contain life lessons for us all. Congratulations to her and the narrators for such a great job!
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Lilly Atlas. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.

Are you ready for Alyssa and Derek's story?
I was given a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review so here we go...
A few minutes into the book and we have an AMAZING sex scene that will leave you thinking: "whoa what I mean holy smokes!" And although Escapades has great steamy sex, it's much more than that...
Dealing with the loss of a child especially in such manner must be devastating for a couple. We'll see how the characters face their pain, their fears and their current situation. Will be their immense love for each other strong enough? Is there hope at the end of all this?
Sometimes this book wasn't easy to listen to, but I loved every comma. And I surely want to know how the series continues.
Narrators did an amazing job bringing it to life!

Another Winner From This Author
I thoroughly enjoyed this story from beginning to end. The only issue I had and it must be with my iPod, that while out working in the garden had to bend over and something seemed to happen. It would jump, it seemed like the narrators were stuttering, and it sounded like the sound was bouncing off a metal wall. That didn't stop me from enjoying what the narrators were reading to me though. It also won't stop me from listening to this book again. I'm just not sure that I would try and read the book because I wouldn't be able to do justice to the emotions these characters are feeling.
The story is sexy and hot but underlying all that is a lot of hurt and I mean emotional hurt. Alyssa and Derek are still dealing with something that hurt them to the core. It may also touch your heart and wish that you could do something to help alleviate their pain. It's a reminder that we can't always try and fix something by ourselves. There are certain times where we need a little help where we don't give up on our loved one. We just need direction to show us that love is there even though our heart may say otherwise for a little while. You almost stop thinking of our couple as fictional. You feel like you need to do something to show you care like making a donation in their name. But since they're fictional you can't do that but you can in honor of the author.
I already love Mr. Levine and Ms. DeWard as narrators and this is just another book to add to my ever growing list. They do a great job in humanizing Ms. Atlas' characters. I could almost picture who our main characters are - this is what narrators help the reader to do. This book is the only one, currently from the Trident Ink series that's available in audio. I don't see any more books in this series yet but our author has several others in another one of her series so I have a lot of catching up to do. And maybe by then we'll have more stories that revolve around Trident Ink.
I voluntarily reviewed an Audiobook copy of this book.

A poignant, roller coaster ride of emotions, HOT
A very gripping, poignant, sensual, HOT, & roller coaster ride of emotions.In the beginning, the author pulls you inside of the story & you'll be hurting over Alyssa and Derek's devastating loss and the toll it's taken on their marriage & self-esteem. If you can keep the faith through the 1st few chapters which is giving you the backstory of how their marriage has disintegrated to almost the lowest of the low. Keep your mind and heart open so you'll able to feel their pain, loss, fear of possibly losing their connection/marriage. I can't say anymore without giving the ending away,other than to say this is the most emotionally spent I've felt in the past many audios/books I've read.in years.You'll love this story and may relate to parts of it (as I did, which made it harder to separate my circumstances from this story). It was WELL WORTH IT SO WE COULD ALL COME OUT THE BEST PART OF THE DARK ABYSS!!!!! I was given a free audio book for my unbiased, honest review.

I’ve read a lot of the authors work and this book took me by surprise; I didn’t read the summarization!of the book before reading it so I had no idea what was happening. It was a heart warming emotional roller coaster that was thoroughly enjoyable.

Emotional well narrated story
This is the first book I have read by this author; as well as, the first time listening to the male narrator. It is not my first with the female narrator. This was an emotional story and not the easiest to listen to because of this. The narrators did such a wonderful job bringing this story to life. I found there were times when I did need to take a break from listening, yet I didn’t want to stop because I needed to know how the story was going to end.
Alyssa and Derek suffered a tragic loss and how they each dealt with the loss was different. There marriage suffered because of this loss and even though personally I haven’t suffered that particular loss there were several elements of this story that I was able to relate with. This was a roller coaster of emotions for me, while listening to this story.
Both of these characters are strong, yet weak and I loved how the author was able to show that and the narrators were able to voice these emotions from the laughs, tears, sorrow, and even the steamy scenes. They were easy to understand especially with changing their voices with different characters. The duet narrations was an added plus for this listener, making the narrator's' voice appear in each chapter. It made it feel more like I was listening to a play. I am looking forward to more from this author as well as these narrators.

A Wonderful love Story!
This is the first in a new series and deals with a very sad subject. Derek and Alyssa have always been happy and madly in love. Then everything falls apart.
Their daughter Katie dies of cancer, and the couple are devastated, and after both grieving separately they find they have drifted apart.
This is the story of how the couple find their way back to each other.
Alyssa finally decides to try an unusual ways to connect with her husband. This is a very sad story, but is told in dual POV so we realise how the couple work their way back to each other. Alyssa and Derek finally realise how much they still love each other. I have to say the sexy parts are HOT, but you will still need tissues for the sad bits.
This story stayed with me, well after the recording had finished
The Narration is superb with Noah and Erin, who are so versatile they bring this story of hope and love to life.

too many sad scenes
If you want romance, don't bother. There were too many sad scenes. It was understandable why this couple suffer so much. However, I couldn't finish because life is already hard and sad sometimes, why listen to a sad story to escape?! The performance were awesome but they couldn't save it for me to continue. I thought the writing was good and flow well from the start to the time i stopped.

very emotional book
At first I was a bit confused about this book. It opens with a hot sex scene between 2 people. Then bounces to Alyssa a bereft woman. After a few minutes I figured it was role play type sex. The book is actually about Alyssa and Derrick. They are a married couple who have lost their young daughter to cancer. In the 2 years since the death of their child they have become room mates instead of husband and wife and neither of them actually realized this was happening. The story basically follows their healing. Alyssa finds a counselor and asks Derrick to go with her. The counselor requests that Derrick moves out for 2 weeks and during the first week he is to set up 2 dates with Alyssa, they are to go on these dates as strangers, with different names and different lives ad the dates should end with sex, and during the 2nd week Alyssa is to take charge.
Can Derrick and Alyssa pick up the pieces of their lives and move on together or is this really the end for this couple?
Lilly Atlas has done an amazing job with this story. You will go through multiple emotions while reading or in my case listening to this book. The book is narrated by Noah Michael Levine and Erin DeWard. They both do an amazing job bringing all the characters to life and the telling of the story.
