About This Audiobook

Jessica Hawkins delivers a razor-sharp tale where passion and payback collide in a way that’s equal parts thrilling and toxic. The story follows Beau, a man who built his empire on casual conquests, only to find himself helplessly ensnared by the one woman he’s spent a decade trying to forget. Lola’s razor tongue and iron will make her an unforgettable foil to Beau’s relentless charm, and their chemistry crackles with the kind of tension that feels both inevitable and dangerous. Hawkins doesn’t just write romance—she crafts a psychological chess match where every move is a gamble, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. If you crave stories where love is less a solace and more a battlefield, this one’s your battlefield of choice.

What sets this audiobook apart isn’t just the plot—it’s the execution. Christian Fox’s narration is a masterclass in vocal alchemy, sliding effortlessly between Beau’s smug arrogance and Lola’s icy fury with a precision that makes every insult and invitation feel like a physical blow. His performance elevates the material from steamy to searing, giving these larger-than-life characters the depth they need to feel real. The pacing is brisk, but never rushed, and the production quality ensures the tension never flags. If you’ve ever wished a romance could be as sharp and addictive as a thriller, *Obsession* is the audiobook you’ve been waiting for.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Christian Fox should be on speed dial for every Jessica Hawkins fan—his narration is the secret weapon that turns this already addictive story into something you’ll binge in one sitting. He nails Beau’s transformation from predatory playboy to desperate supplicant, his voice dripping with that infuriating mix of arrogance and vulnerability that makes the character so compelling. Even better, he captures Lola’s razor-wire wit with a bite that feels almost audible, making her the perfect counterbalance to Beau’s relentless pursuit. The production is clean and polished, but never sterile; every gasp, smirk, and snarl feels intimate, like you’re eavesdropping on a fight that’s way too hot for public consumption. That said, the story isn’t without its flaws. Hawkins leans hard into the ‘tortured hero’ trope, and by the halfway mark, Beau’s refusal to take no for an answer starts to feel less like determination and more like a red flag waving in your face. The resolution, while satisfying in a cathartic way, also skirts the edge of contrivance—not enough to ruin the ride, but enough to make you pause and wonder if Lola’s agency gets a little shortchanged in the final act. Still, if you’re here for the journey and not the destination, Fox’s performance alone makes this worth the credit.
