Publisher's summary

"John Doe" was just another patient. A criminal.

As a prison nurse, I knew the rules: do my job, don't get involved, and never let a prisoner get under my skin.

I broke all three.

My passion, my obsession, my addiction. I risked my entire life so we could be together.

I thought helping him escape from prison would be the hard part. It turns out when you fall in love with a villain, you also turn into one.

Great Read

Toxic was a great read by Nicole Blanchard. I absolutely loved reading Tessa and Grayson's story even when I shouldn't like Grayson. Tessa is a prison nurse who is married to the abusive prison warden. She broke all the rules for the handsome prisoner Grayson. I loved reading their story and even when things seemed hard for them, I rooted for the both of them. I can't wait to read more by Nicole Blanchard.

Great plot but want MMC POV

Listened to this book on audio and am stuck between liking it and meh. I feel like if the story was longer than I’d truly love it or if Grecin’s POV was added as well. Overall it was a good book and female narrator did a good job throughout the performance

Dark and Edgy!

Suspense books have always been a favorite of mine. This dark story by Nicole Blanchard kept me on edge the entire listen. The narration by Susan Fouche was outstanding. She gave such realistic emotions to the various characters along with distinguishable voices. The imagery in this book is vivid. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator.

It was ok

The story started off strong but I feel like it fizzled out in the middle. I wanted more from Tessa and Grayson. Both their characters kinda went flat. Dual perspective might have been helpful. Overall it was enjoyable and quick to get through.

We all need a little bit of King 😉

Initially The voice of Vic gave me the shudders lol like what was Tessa thinking marrying him — as the story unfurls — we meet John Doe and sparks start to fly, sketches begin to surface as Tessa starts to open up to the new prisoner feeling the pull — upon hearing King’s voice as situations arise out of their control initially I likened Heaven’s character to that of Jared Leto’s Joker lol the way he toyed with Harley Quinn “Little Mouse” after a close encounter with the inmate Tessa asks him his name and then looks it up to confirm what he’s told her and upon further investigation Tessa uncovers a little more information about our hottt commodity — but as the story developed I found questions and their answers throughout I love how Gracen and Tessa have moved mountains against all their trials and tribulations a recommended.

Toxic

Tessa starts off in this book as a broken down and beaten woman. The things she has had to go through are hard to hear, but when King finds out what’s going on and befriends her she starts to see the work differently. The chemistry between these two are Hot and the love scenes are some of the hottest I’ve read. Watching these two throughout this book has you feeling every emotion in your mind and luckily you have a happy ending when completed. The narration in this book was fantastic as well. All in all, I will definitely be looking into more from this pair.
