Reckless Audiobook Novels & Stories

My pulse pounded so loud it drowned out everything else. Behind me, sirens multiplied. They were good. I’d give them that. Two cruisers, then three, hugging my tail like bloodhounds. I weaved through traffic, cutting corners too sharp, missing bumpers by inches. Horns screamed. Someone yelled. I didn’t look back. I couldn’t afford to. My mind raced faster than the car.

I gasp, my own breath starting to come fast, my pulse pounding as my hands go flat against the door. “Reckless,” Auden growls, shaking his head sharply at me. “Anything could have happened, Everleigh! You’re – you’re a fucking Queen – or may as well be! You could have been kidnapped and ransomed – you could have been killed!
