The story follows Hank, a seemingly ordinary man whose life takes a terrifying turn after a chance encounter with the enigmatic Abbott Lowery. Abbott's charm and charisma quickly captivate Hank, drawing him into a dangerous and obsessive relationship. As the line between fantasy and reality blurs, Hank finds himself trapped in a nightmare of his own making.
One of the strengths of this audiobook is the exceptional performance by narrator Alan I Ross. His portrayal of Hank's descent into madness is both chilling and compelling, perfectly capturing the character's vulnerability and desperation. The narration adds an extra layer of intensity to the already suspenseful plot.
Overall, Beautiful Monster is a well-written and well-narrated thriller that will leave you questioning the nature of obsession and the lengths people will go to for love. It's a must-listen for fans of psychological thrillers and dark romance.
Gripping!!

The audio version of Beautiful Monster is performed by Alan I Ross, and he does a marvelous job with this sinister and entertaining story.
I'm so glad I had this one for Halloween, and I highly recommend Rick R. Reed's Beautiful Monster any time of year.

The writing was amazing and so was the audio performance. AFAIK I’ve never listened to another book performed by Alan I. Ross but I would definitely listen to more audiobooks he performs.
I’m not sure what to say about the story; the blurb pretty much says what you need to know. I’ll just add that I was kept guessing how it would all turn out until the very end. I’m not sure I’ll ever read another horror story but I’m absolutely not sorry I listened to this one.
Gruesome and chilling!

Narration = 4 stars
This is m4m but is definitely not a romance!
Hank is unemployed, bored and in a 20 year marriage that has lost the sparks, even though he claims to still love his husband, he goes out looking for some excitement for the first time.
Abbott is haunted by nightmares of his past. He hates everything and everyone and thinks anyone who flirts with him or looks his way is a ---- and he wants to teach them a lesson.
This is full of suspense and twists and surprises like alot of this author's books. I really didn't know what was real or lies and how it would all end. I love this author's books for these aspects but this was a no for me. I almost stopped listening a few times. I hated every character and the terrible ending.
This narrator did a really good job. His voice was age appropriate for the characters. He kept a good flow and expressed all the emotions really well. He brought life to the story but I did wish the voices between the characters were more distinct. I haven't listened to this narrator before but I would listen to him again.
Enjoyed the narration

Hank lost his job so he is currently a bored stay at home husband. He feels the flame has gone out of his 20 year marriage and while he still loves Jonah, he feels like he is missing something. He fantasizes about what could be and then one day he runs across Abbott.
Abbott is a great looking guy who attracts Hank. The problem is Abbott is damaged from a terrible childhood and seems to feel it's his duty to punish other men for what happened to his mom, especially a cheating man like Hank.
This is an edgy story with numerous other characters that lend depth to the story. The narration by Alan Ross makes the story feel very real.
Intense
