Complete disappointment

After "Chasing the night" where Iris finally gave her readers a strong woman that was sexy AND smart, she gives us Eve, the Eve that tries to protect a man that has spent the last 11 books rescuing her from her own stubborn stupidity. She doe it by running away with the father of her dead child. And just to show how much of an idiot she is, she thinks that Joe (her lover and hero) won't come after her.

Iris does her best to make the old lover (the father) appear dangerous and sexy--and all the time, the reader is screaming, "WHAT ABOUT JOE???"

The only hope a reader can cling to is that Eve gets shot and joins the only creature she truly cares about, her Bonnie--Joe runs away with Katherine, or that Eve ends up with her ex and leaves Joe to find someone who will love him back.

For anyone that cares about Joe--and Bonnie, skip this one, don't spend your credit on it. Wait for "Joe" and see if Joe finally gets something for all his devotion.

Dont waste your time or book credit on this one!

I completely agree with the other reviews, and wish I had waited to read them before I picked up this disappointing book. The narrator's voice was dreadful, the plot unremarkeable, best left on the shelf!

Rubbish

What disappointed you about Eve?

The whole story line was rubbish. If it had been a hard cover book, I would have thrown it away.

Has Eve turned you off from other books in this genre?

No

What didn’t you like about Jennifer Van Dyck’s performance?

I think she did an excellent job with bad material

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Eve?

Bonnie, Bonnie, Bonnie. Plus the constant asking if whoever, had killed her. I would have knocked her on the head. Eve, that is.

Awful

"Audible hopes you have enjoyed this book". I DID NOT! Eve is getting dumber with each book and I found myself rolling my eyes over and over at the dumb, dumb antics and the even dumber dialog. I am sick to death of hearing about "her 'Bonnie" and now an entire book that revolves around this over worked subject. And did we really need to spend most of the first half on the crazy, unbelievable teenage sexual relationship? Seriously, thinking she is not going to get pregnant by taking one pill? I cannot believe the shoddy work here. The other reviewer was correct with her comments "what about Joe"? And this is the worst narrator I have heard. As soon as the book started I remembered why I did not want to get another Eve book. She emphasizes the wrong words and frequently each word of a sentence. Her sinister voice is just plain ridiculous. I could barely finish the book and then was sorry I wasted my time with that ending.

Not my favorite

This book spent a lot of time revisiting Eve’s time as a teenager. Was ok but not what I expected or was needed for the story line. Also the ending was blah. I know this is a series and I am listening to the series but I dislike it when the books do not have any closure at the end.

amazing writter

love it. in love how it keeps me wanting to listen to more about eve and ill he twists and turn

love it!

always enjoy this series and the journey it has taken me on can't wait to listen to next book.

eve doesn't think

eve is thoughtless and jumps to conclusions and for some reason thinks is capable as Joe or smarter. then she almost gets people killed that is busy protecting her from herself. I wish iris johansen would have made her smarter and understand her limitations

Loved it !

So caught up in the lives of Eve & Joe!!! I Can't put 'em down!
