About this listen
Wren
I always knew darkness crept through this city; like a shadow, it never really goes away, always watching, always waiting. People sin and people kill; it's a way of life. I just never expected to be thrown into the middle of a war I had no hope of surviving. Alexander Silver is as brutal as he is beautiful. A devil in disguise. The man destined to end me. I didn't go looking for trouble, and yet it found me, nonetheless. I could either join it or let it crush me.
Lex
Wren Valentine, my sweet Little Bird. I had no right dragging her into my world of violence and bloodshed, but I did it anyway. I am the king, sitting on a throne of chaos. She was supposed to be the enemy, the means to an end, but she became much more than that. In this life, you take what you want and strike down those who oppose you.
She is mine.
And I'll paint the streets red if anyone dares to take her.
Little Bird is book one in the Twisted City Duet. If you like dark, dirty, and suspenseful romance, this one's for you!
Warning! This is a dark romance and contains themes common in dark romances including, kidnap, violence, drug and alcohol use, sexual content, and strong language. It is not recommended for listeners under the age of 18. This book ends on a cliff-hanger.

Story
It was supposed to be a simple weekend away to forget the heartache caused by my cheating husband. But the man sitting next to me in 1B has different plans. Cash’s whiskey-colored eyes and easy smile beg me to dance beneath the stars, kiss in the moonlight, and walk hand in hand down the streets of Boston. Unfortunately, life has other plans because I’m still married, and Cash James is the billionaire playboy standing between me and my dream promotion.

Story
According to the FBI, I was considered a serial murderer after three kills. What do they call me after fifty-two? They call me the Silencer. One final bullet would have been all it took to stop me from taking another soul, and I would have been doing Meridian City a service by pulling that trigger. An angel crying for help stopped me, and that night, I took three lives for her. Then three turned into eight. Then eight turned into twenty. Twenty turned into twenty-one. Twenty-one turned into twenty-three.

Story
With green eyes and an easy smile, Frank McCabe stole me away from the nightmares that awaited me at home. But the son of the Irish Mob would never be mine. I belonged to the Italians. And the moment my mother sold me to the head of the Italian Mafia, I became the one the people of Boston were warned about. The only person more feared than me in our city is the Irish Ghost. When I finally flee my marital prison with my sons and my sister in tow, I unwittingly run straight into the ghost of the Irishman who died in a fiery explosion years ago.

He’s cold-blooded, manipulative, and savage. The worst part is that no one sees his devil side. I do. And that will cost me everything. I run, but the thing about monsters? They always chase.

Story
Running away from home at 17 wasn't easy. Let's face it, though, nothing before or in the ten years since has ever been easy for me. And I'm doing okay—sorta. I just need to keep scraping by, living under the radar. Staying out of people's way, off people's minds. When a man walks through my open patio door, stepping boldly into my home and my life, I should be scared, frightened, terrified. I must be more broken than I realized because I'm none of those things. I'm intrigued—and I'm wondering if the way to take control of my life is by giving in to him.

Our families believe a marriage pact is the only thing that will prevent all-out warfare. I think I might need to murder him while he sleeps. This would all be a lot easier if Callum wasn’t so damned good-looking.

Dark Romance/Enemies to Lovers
I don't know who needs to hear this...but listen to this book! Even if you've read the ebook or paperback, listen to this audio!! Always remember to check for triggers.
Lucy and Joe completely out did themselves with their performance and the way they were able to bring Ria's words to life! They conveyed the broad range of emotions felt by each character so flawlessly. You could feel their pain, pleasure, anger and so much more.
The world that Ria has created is dark and twisted...but you start to wonder if Wren can bring Lex out of the darkness and into the light...or if it's too late. Will they both be swallowed whole by the darkness?
And the cliffhanger....the cliffhanger.

Both Lucy Rivers and Joe Arden know how to really make you feel what they feel. Cliffhangers are the worst but this just means I’m eager to start book 2 ASAP!

Not really a duet style, I'd call this back and forth blabbering.
The book itself was good, predictable like most books in the plot. But I was extremely disappointed with Lucy's performance. I don't feel or hear the emotion in her voice, she doesn't speak the way I hear wren in my head. The tone/sound in her vocals are the exact same as most of her other audiobooks. It's difficult to concentrate and enjoy a book when it gets to a sexy part then she talks I'm turned off, no sexyness comveyed. It's hard to explain in text, and this is my personal opinion. Joe did another great job, there's something about the way he narrates that just seperates him from the rest. And to audiobooks, if it's a duet it should be back and forth like Bryanne Weavers Butcher and Blackbird. I don't want or need to hear Joe pretending to be a female or lucy pretending to be a male. It ruins the performance in my opinion. I would still recommend the book yo read first and if anyone wants to listen to the audiobook afterwards.
