female narrator throws the story off

the female narrator's voice sounded more like a 45 year old snobby British royal than a 17year old girl

Good story but terrible narrators

The story is pretty good as far as these types of stories go. But the narration is so bad it’s hard to listen to. The female narrator sounds like she’s 40 and her voice for the male character is almost creepy. The male narrator is better but his Irish accented voice for the female character is just bad. I say all of this because it really does detract from the enjoyment of the story. If you read actual books rather than just listen to them, I’d recommend that for this book.

Dangerous hot alpha=GOOD listen !

Ignore the one review that said this wasn’t worth the listen, I almost didn’t download because of that but glad I took a chance! I’ve been on the lookout for a series as I feel like I’ve listened to them all. This one reminds me of “fear me” as it’s set in high school with primary characters being 17-18yrs but has very adult themes etc. and at times is a little young but definitely not the hot steamy moments!
“Treacherous”has danger, misunderstandings, miscommunications, evil jealous sleezebags, and an enemy to friends to lovers romance between the main characters Noah and Teagan. Btw, I would be Noah’s ANYthjng lmao!
Okay so the story is about the meeting and eventual relationship between Noah (hot, dangerous, bad boy) and Teagan, a 17yr girl who moves to Colorado from Ireland. There is a lot of back and forth between the 2 of them as well as a slutty step sister. They are neighbors and a fued begins which at times was entertaining and at times cringe worthy, but from there stems the unlikely duo of Noah and the thorn in his side (Teagan). I did find Teagans behavior silly at too many points, as if she were 13 and not 2 months away from 18. But again the female narrator when speaking 1st person for Teagan, made her sound like a total spaz at those points and that was difficult. HOWEVER, once the story got going I was so into it I overlooked those parts, the male narration worked and as long as 1st person Teagan wasn’t speaking the narration worked and I was thoroughly engrossed In the story. I’m sooo happy I hung in there, as the story got more exciting as the book progressed! And some chapters were absolutely FANTASTIC listen!
If you liked “fear me”, the “bully” series or Amo Jones Elite Kings series you’ll be happy to find another trilogy for escape!
This first book is a cliffhanger, but I just listened to 2nd and downloading 3rd as I write this! Second book even better!

Sigh....

I had just listened to “Binding 13” and was looking forward to hearing more books by Chloe Walsh because I had been immediately drawn in from the first chapter. Sadly, I’ve barely made it through the first hour of narrative for “Treacherous” and want to throw it out the window! I think the story line will be okay but I cannot get past one of the worst narrations I’ve ever heard. The male perspective isn’t horrible but the female perspective is painful to listen to. The cadence of her reading has no connection to what is actually happening. She brings out Teagan’s Irish accent when Teagan is “speaking” but the rest is just the same up and down rhythm in an English accent that doesn’t match the character’s personality or mood at all. I didn’t leave a better feedback on the story itself because I just don’t know if it’s a good one having not been able to make it further. I have never left a review but was so disappointed in this one that I decided to stop where I was and get my first one on record. Buyer beware. It’s possible this is actually a good book but I recommend maybe reading it and saving yourself the painful frustration of listening. I love audiobooks because I can get so much done while listening and rarely have time to sit down to just read. Sigh.....

This is a cliffhanger

I think this book is ok but I don’t like cliffhangers. I don’t like to be forced to read or listen to another book to see what happens.

Terrible female narration

Heed all the warnings!!! The female narration is god awful. Won’t be listening to the audiobook anymore. I’ll read the book instead.

I’m horrified.

I love this series so I thought I’d download it and listen to it while I was weeding the garden. The narration was god awful. Teegen sounded screechy and whiny in every conversation. And then when Lulu “growled” indicating Noah’s part of the conversation it was even worse. I don’t think I’ll be downloading anything else at this point.

Hated this narrator

The narrator had the most annoying voice especially when she would get that high pitch whiny sound for the heroine . I had to DNF this one and I’m not picky. I allow my kindle to read to me and the voices never bother me .

didn't like it

I don't know if my problem with this book was only because of the female narrator or the story per se.... I couldn't stand the attitudes of the female main character.
