Just as we all have our comfort levels when listening to those steamy scenes, the level of violence can be a factor as well. It’s hard to skim either in audio format.
None – A calm listen with possible danger
Examples:
Kristan Higgins’ Catch of the Day
Susan Elizabeth Phillips’ Match Me If You Can
Minimal – Threats, danger, injury
Examples:
Julie James’ Something About You
Linda Howard’s Mackenzie’s Mountain
Domestic Violence – Either past or present day
Examples:
Lisa Kleypas’ Blue-Eyed Devil
J.D. Robb’s In Death series - Eve’s background
Fighting – No overly descriptive scenes of blood and gore
Examples:
Suzanne Brockmann’s Troubleshooter series
Karen Marie Moning’s Fever series
Escalated Fighting – Descriptions of injuries, body parts lost, or death
Examples:
Ilona Andrews’ Kate Daniels series
Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress series
Graphic – In depth details of autopsy reports, torture past or present, sick killers’ POV/actions, or rape.
Examples:
Christine Feehan books
Nora Roberts’ Carnal Innocence
Linda Howard’s Dream Man
Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander
