The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . STEPPING STONE (Stone, #2) . . . Krys and Alex are back in another installment to their relationship. There was still intensity in their connection and uncertainty in the possibilities of a relationship future. Stepping Stone picks up very close to where Heart of Stone ended. We find that the both of them are having a hard time with this separation.
I was able to knock this audio out in a matter of hours. I may have taken one break and that was it. I wanted to know how things progressed for them and if there would be another stone to turn over. Well, I don't want to give that part away. This was a read that lived up to the first book maybe more so because we get to see more of both Krys and Alex. They both have deep demons and need to open to the other. This was angst, drama, heartache.
I am looking forward to the next chapter in Alex and Krys relationship. The Stone series has risen to the occasion and I find it to be a success. This was more than a battle for the heart. It was the next step forward for them both.
Narrator Review of . . . STEPPING STONE (Stone, #2) . . . Lucy Laurel was amazing,yet again. Her diction clear, strong, and held that hint of allure that draws me in to her voice with each new audio I experience with her. She adds that something extra that makes you feel.
Jeffery Kafer can pull of sexy male oh so well. His female characters live a little bit of imagination investigations. I feel that female sounds too hard.
With all that said the clarity and the smooth flow of the audio was there. I found no hiccups in the recording and no issues with the speed controls.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Dakota Willink. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
The story of Krystina and Alexander continues
in Stepping Stone, book two of The Stone Series.
Krystina Cole is flawed and damaged from a
traumatic experience. A relationship with Alexander Stone will never work. She
knows that her capacity for love is limited, and that only she alone can repair
the pieces of her shattered heart. But Alexander is everywhere she turns. In
her mind. In her heart. And in her soul. She cannot deny him. He is her
addiction and she is unable to stay away.
Alexander Stone has accepted the inevitable.
If he wants to hold on to Krystina, he must bare all and release the secrets in
his past. There were risks, but she is worth it. No woman has ever affected him
the way that she did. She is the sunshine in his darkness. The lightning to his
thunder. She is his angel.
Bound by their passion to be together,
Alexander and Krystina fight to let go of their pasts. Together, they embark on
journey of self-exploration, relying on trust to be their ultimate bond.
Falling completely into one another, there finally seems to be a beacon of hope
for their future. But as they test their boundaries of desire, fate takes an
unexpected turn, threatening their only chance at survival…
