Summary

Mattie Jackson is a content, single woman living a quiet life in a charming suburb of Pittsburgh. Fate steps into her life one night tempting her out of her uncomplicated existence. During this thrilling transition she meets a novelist, the handsome, sultry-eyed Kyle Bruno. Rousing passion rapidly ignites her body and soul as she becomes deeply ensnared by this new, intoxicating excitement.

What she never imagines is that an invading, hidden menace preying upon the local residents has now focused its sights upon her. And where the compelling danger intends to take her may not be a destination Mattie will ever escape. Only the keeper of the pendulum will decide the next move. Set in the rolling hills and scenic valleys of southwestern Pennsylvania, Only for You is a thrilling book for adult listeners who enjoy a mix of mystery, action, suspense, and romance. This book is intended for mature audiences.

Absolutely fabulous!

This was the first book that I’ve listen to by Maura Burd and is is a fabulous story. The story is a shorter but packed with an excellent storyline. It has murder, corruption, suspense, rapists, cheating spouses, intrigue, violence and abnormal (dysfunctional)family. This is a wonderfully well written story that will have you on the edge of your sit wondering what will happen next. This book will have you suspecting a lot of the characters.
This writer has a way of building up the anticipation of the story.
The narrator bring the characters to life with her narrations of this story. I think she does a fantastic job with the telling of this storyline and I’m looking forward to more by this narrator! Fabulous story with a fabulous narration!! I definitely recommend this book.
My only regret is that it isn’t a longer book.

Intrigue, suspense and romance

Maura Burd's Only for You has a little bit of everything. I was in the mood for a good romantic suspense and this delivered tenfold. Maddie Jackson meets Kyle Bruno from an online poetry site. From the minute they meet, something is suspect. I could feel it in the story with nothing being said! Is Maddie being watched? Is Kyle a good man? What is up with Maddie's co-worker? As I listened and got to know the different characters and their overlapping relationships, it became harder and harder to figure out why the tensions were so high. It's the best kind of suspense! Plus the budding relationship between Maddie and Kyle is sweet, sexy and full of passion. If you love stories with that slow build of intrigue, then this one is for you!

Narrated by the talented Ashley Taylor, it flows so easily. She has such a great array of voices, it's easy to hear who is speaking. I loved the way she is able to build up the suspense and keep it high til the end. It's a great listen!

Only for You

This story will have you on the edge of your seat wondering if you can trust anyone. Mattie is quiet and has not dated in a while when her boss suggests she check out a website. She meets a man that will in the end change her life. Kyle is stuck in life caring for his extended family and its a full time job. He is kind of at their beck and call. When surrounded by this bunch that you keep giving and not getting anything back something bad is bound to happen. Nice Narration by Ashley Taylor.

Only for you

This story shows what a small world we actually live in, even if it’s in a large city like Pittsburgh PA. Intrigue, violence, a dysfunctional family, a cheating spouse, a corrupt police officer, and a budding romance is what you will find in this volatile standalone written by Maura Burd and narrated by Ashley Taylor who injected life into this story.

Stronger than she thought

Mattie is trudging through life on her own when she meets Kyle online at a poets site. They instantly hit it off and finally decide to meet. The sparks fly and they are both falling for each other. Kyle has family issues he is dealing with and unbeknown to Mattie those issues will involve her as well.

This story is a sweet love story that has some twists. Strange things are happening and the question is who is behind them.

The narration was good. This narrator did a good job with playing all the characters.

I received a code to listen and review and give my honest opinion. I give it a strong 3. I liked it, not loved, but it's a good story.

Great Suspense!

Only for You by Maura Burd is full of suspense, tension, romance and intrigue. I really enjoyed the story with its characters and not so obvious relationships. Ashley Taylor was magical bringing the characters to life with her performance. One could feel the emotions and easily differentiate the character voices. I loved the premise of this book, where the main couple meets at an online poetry group. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.
