Dark, intense, and absolutely addictive—Lights Out by Navessa Allen is a book that had me hooked from the very first page. This story masterfully blends the grit of a dark romance with the unexpected warmth of a golden-retriever-like male lead, making for an unforgettable experience. The protagonist, Aly, is a trauma nurse barely keeping her head above water when she stumbles upon a masked man posting provocative videos online. What starts as curiosity quickly spirals into something much deeper, pulling her into a world that’s as thrilling as it is dangerous. The chemistry between Aly and Josh is electric, their banter sharp, and their connection undeniable. One of the standout elements of this book? The audiobook. Elena Wolfe and Jacob Morgan deliver a duet narration that doesn’t just bring the story to life—it enhances it. Their performances perfectly capture the emotional intensity and raw attraction between the characters, making the experience all the more immersive. With fast pacing, morally gray elements, and just the right balance of humor and heat, Lights Out is a must-read for dark romance lovers. If you’re into intense passion with a touch of unpredictability, this one belongs on your TBR.
