A fantastic book

Lost Bastard Audio Book by India Kells is a Dark Sparrow Novel. This is one of those books that has a bit of everything - action, romance, bad boys and so much more. The story kick straight off with a bang and barely gives you time to catch your breath.
I was drawn to each of the characters for such different reasons and they really make the book interesting.
For me however what really tops this audio book into fantastic is the narrator. He absolutely nails all the different accents and personalities. I could clearly tell each of them apart and really got a feel for them all. I couldn’t stop listening to him narrate the book.
This is fantastic book by a brilliant author and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Excellent story and narration! 5 stars!

I love this author so was really excited to listen to an audio book by her and I wasn’t disappointed. Th story was expected fantastic, full of twists and turns and the narrator really brought the authors words to life. I found it really easy to listen to. The passion between the two characters, Deva and Alexsei, really came alive and I could feel the connection that they had was so pure and genuine. I’m pretty sure that Alexsei is now my new book boyfriend! He was everything I love in an alpha male!

Overall a fantastic audio book and one that I would highly recommend!

A brilliant book

When you get drawn back into the life you thought you have left behind, will she have the courage to loss everything for love.

Deva owes everything she has to one woman who she promised in return one favour, but she she receives a phone call activating "Dark Sparrow" Deva gets worried that she will be drawn into the world she left behind.

Alexsei has fought hard in life literally as he is involved within the underground MMA fighting scene, until one day with the gym he sees her from the ring. He doesn't know why he is so attracted to this formidable woman but he needs to get closer to her. The only problem is he is dangerous and she is innocent how can he involve her within his world.

Until one night when both worlds collide and will they ever be able to pursue the love and attraction which is there for both of them.

I loved this story as the first in the series it lays some of the groundwork for the series but it is gripping from the first word written. The story is full of twists and turns with gangs and mobsters, killings, manipulation in buckets.

The secondary character provide a great arc within the story and I loved how they all interacted with each other and love the way the story weaves and finishes off brilliantly. This is not the first book I have read by this author but this maybe the best series I have read in a long-time. I recommend this book if you love Mob bosses, strong men but even stronger female heroines.

Very interesting and intricate storyline

I really enjoyed the story in this book. The way all the different threads weaved together kept me reading to the end.
Lots of planning must have gone into this book and there were lots of side characters involved and they really added to the story. They were introduced at a pace so you can get to know them and I can see lots more stories to come involving them.
Deva was a character I really struggled to like, and I don't think I ever did for the entire book. She escaped the brutal MC life and knew she couldn't safely go back. Yet she exposed herself to the MC groups when she didn't need to, opening up a huge can of worms that could have easily stayed hidden. She also constantly put herself into dangerous situations she didn't need to, causing unnecessary problems to the group. I also felt that she inserted herself as the MC expert, even after claiming to have been kept in the dark due to being female, and staying away for 10+ years.
I was quite shocked at Deva's first interaction with Alesei, but it did set the stage for their relationship, which was extremely fast paced from the beginning.

I enjoyed the narration voice, however some of the accents weren't consistent, especially during conversations where he had to keep switching from British to American. I also found the audio slow, and listened at x1.5 speed, which seemed to suit me.
