Review: The Joker's Sin series, by Davidson King, is an excellent series that explores the world of Joker's Sin, the gay nightclub in Haven Hart. Each book has explored one of the four major men who run the club. Taste of Fear is the last book in the series and covers Ciro, Joker's Sin's chief of security. In the first three books, Ciro has been the go-to guy for help when legal was not the best way to go. For as tough as he has seemed in each book, the reader senses he has a past very much wants to stay in the past. Zander Vane is the celebrity chef who first appears in the Haven Hart series. Although he is confident as a chef, as an individual he is shy. Taste of Fear is an exciting book. The romance between Ciro and Zander makes sense and is not an insta-love (not knocking insta-love). The mystery, thriller, and suspense aspects work very well with romance. Philip Alces and John Solo do a very good job narrating the book. Philip Alces might be familiar if you listened to the Haven Hart series. All in all, it is an enjoyable audiobook and a nice finish for the Joker's Sin series. I received a copy of the audiobook from Tantor Audio in exchange for an honest review. #TasteofFear #JokersSin #HavenHart @TantorAudio @DavidsonKing11 #PhilipAlces #JohnSolo
