Summary
Monster.
That's what they call me.
Lock your doors, hold your loved ones tight. The Carver is on the loose.
Except I'm not. I was caught.
The days of allowing my inner depravity to run wild are over. I've been sent to prison for good, something of a celebrity in this dark, dank hell-hole they call Alabaster Penitentiary. The only thing I have left to offer the world is my story, and unfortunately for me, the Warden has the rest of my life to get it out of me. Being poked and prodded, examined and tested on isn't something I enjoy very much. Until they send him...The new doctor is here to study me and my crimes. And I'm beginning to think we might not be as different as it seems. He craves knowledge the way I crave the blood of my victims. Despite his robotic nature, there's just something about him... Something I want.But I'll have to be careful not to smother it to death. After all... It's kind of my thing.**Brainwashed is a dark MM doctor-patient romance, an interconnected standalone in the Alabaster Penitentiary series. While it follows a new couple, we strongly recommend you read Volumes 1-2 first to avoid spoilery situations. This book has true crime elements that may make some readers uncomfortable. Please proceed with caution.**"

Awesome Story & Listen🎧 Engrossing & Addictive!
It is great to be back in Alabaster Penitentiary for another amazing romance novel, a dark and twisted mind-blow that is addictive and hard to pull away from because you just need to know what happens next. Nyla K. is a gifted author with a brilliant mind, a deviously brilliant mind, and I mean that in the best of ways. Her descriptive writing and details take you right alongside these characters, giving you a bird's-eye view of everything they are thinking and experiencing, putting you in the room where it happens. This third book is Felix Darcey’s story, Alabaster’s resident serial killer, aka the carver. Alabaster is an unconventional prison and a lot of unconventional things go on, and Blanco, the ward in charge, recruits another doctor to work with Darcey. Dr. Lemuel “Lem” Love is tired of his life and when offered an opportunity to work with one of the most notorious serial killers, he couldn’t refuse. Lem did not exactly fit in with the other doctors, but he avoided them as much as possible. Felix was not a fan of the other doctors or their treatment either and was looking forward to working with the new doctor, Dr. Love. OMG, it was great to watch Lem get into Felix’s head and hear everything he did, his logic in regards and his fixation on killing. Felix is crushing on the doctor who is straight, but there is no doubt about the chemistry between them, though Lem denies it and refuses to go there. Felix gets into Lem’s head and he questions his own needs and preferences. I loved how everything played out in this book, the writing, plot and world building are phenomenal, as are the character growth and development. This book may take some out of their comfort zone, and the author warms to proceed with caution. I say go in with an open mind and enjoy the wild ride. I got some Silence of the Lamb vibes, except Clarice was a male and Hannibal had a crush and was looking for more, and then add some more insanity to the story and kink, too. Nyla K., thank you for another amazing story and wild ride.
🎧📚🎧Walker Williams and Brent Billings did a fantastic job bringing these characters to life, giving each a voice that was fitting and believable. Brent Billings is a “new to me” narrator, while it took me a while to get used to his pacing and delivery, and once I did, I was hooked. He nailed it as Dr. Love, grasping every aspect of his personality, transformed as his character did as the story went on. Walker Williams delivered in his role as Darcey, playing the perfect sociopath. Both were great performing the roles of the secondary characters, too. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These two versatile voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this fantastic listen.

An absolute masterpiece.
I didn’t think I could get more obsessed with this book but here we are.
This book is dark and has morally black characters so do look up the trigger warnings.
I went into this having read the book before so knew the story and characters are utter perfection but the narrators did and absolutely perfect job of bringing Felix and Lem to life. The acting (that’s the only word I can use) is so good, every emotion and mood change can be felt through the tone and delivery.
Mild Spoilers ahead - Felix is such a complex and unapologetic character, he’s killed and doesn’t have remorse, it makes him one of the most fascinating fictional characters I’ve ever read. Also him melting at Lem’s attention is so sweet!
Lem’s robotic and emotionless counter balance to felix’s desperation for love and attention is so beautifully balanced. I loved their first meeting.
The world of Alabaster Pen is one I think about daily, this series has me in a complete chokehold and I cannot wait for more.

Darkly delicious
This book is dark. There are trigger warnings. That being said, this book will leave you panting. The story was very interesting and fascinating. The dialogue left you addicted to listening and the end will leave you wanting more. Definitely recommend.

Another amazing story from Nyla K
Wow, I’m a bit stumped for words. This book is insane in the best way. Only Nyla would make me fall in love with a serial killer 🤣 Lem & Felix’s story is dark and a bit of a roller coaster ride. But I thoroughly enjoyed it. Walker Williams & Brent Billings were the perfect narrators for this story. Well done!

Want & Need
You never know what to expect at Alabaster Penitentiary. I absolutely loved getting to know Felix, his thoughts, doubts, desires. He’s such a uniquely complex character. I loved getting glimpses of his side of things with Dasha from Fractured.
Dr. Love was another complex character, he definitely had a lot of soul searching to do, to understand himself and his desires.
This was so hot and twisted. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen next.

Dark MM Doctor-Patient Romance
Brainwashed by Nyla K is a dark MM doctor-patient romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Walker Williams and Brent Billings. This is the third book in the Alabaster Penitentiary series.
I absolutely love Nyla's books. I don't want to give any spoilers away. So, I will just say WOW! This book pulled me in, and I couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. This is definitely one of my top reads for 2023!
I can't wait for the next book in the series Fragments to be released on audio so I can get Warren and Luthor's story.
Walker and Brent were absolutely amazing for this book! They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would highly recommend this book if you're looking for a MM romance, dark romance, doctor-patient romance, or romantic suspense.

Amazing
Felix isn’t how you see other serial killers portrayed he’s not full of himself like most are he’s just someone looking to be noticed and Lem notices him. Love how Lem can read Felix and vice versa even though Lem wouldn’t admit Felix was correct . I am hoping Trevel will get his own book and I’m looking forward to see how him and Felix interact because Trevel hates Lem and it’s only a matter of times before that bomb explodes.
The narrators were absolutely perfect and I will be listening to it again in the future .
