Review for the 4 book series.

A Reverse Harem no swords ⚔️. 4 males and 1 female. All pure Smut with a subplot of stalking (not from the MMC).

Tropes:

DVP, DP, butt play, billionaire, boss, contract, insta love


Madison just finished her internship and is looking for a new job since her Boss’s son, Hunter continues to sexually harass her and makes her very uncomfortable. She goes to an interview where she meets her soon to be bosses: Blake, Seth, Noah and Cooper. There is instant attraction for all. Blake being the holdout because he was betrayed in the past. Their lives have been busy building up their top security company and women in the past tried to split them up or make them choose and the guys grew up together and have a bond that’s unbreakable. So they came of with a plan to hire an assistant and have her sign a sex contract and an NDA. Her attraction to them plus her wanting to explore her sexuality, after denying herself during college, makes her agree to the contract.

Noah is the first person she feels a deep rooted connection to. He the shy one (not in bed that man likes his knots and knows how to control the room). He enjoys books like she does and he was the first to say I love you and wanted to be public with her but Circumstances makes Coop the guy she has to be public with.

Cooper is the blue money guy that has been know as the player to never settle down. His rich family keeps trying to make him go into an arranged marriage. All the other rich families with daughters are after his namesake. He had a past arranged marriage go south because she tried to make him choose between her or his friends. It was his idea to have a contract to share one woman. He also loves his butt play. He’s the second one to fall in love with Madison.

Seth is the boss and he likes to control things around him and he is a voyeur of the group. He happy to make sure Madison wants for nothing and likes to pick out her clothes. He’s usually the group leader in the play room but they do switch it around. He had a failed relationship due to her using him to get to Coop.

Blake is the guy that is unsure and doesn’t trust his instincts since he had that fail him before. He begged the guys to hire a prior assistant but that said assistant only wanted Blake and made Noah feel like shit. Blake is Madison’s protector and likes light BDSM.

There are a lot of Smut scenes so buckle up because there’s very little plot so make sure you are in the right headspace.

Madison finds out she has a stalker and he/she has been stalking her for over 4 years so throughout the 4 books I was more interested in finding out who her stalker was and I found myself skipping some of the sex scenes to get these answers. Simultaneously, the guys find out they have a mole in their company that’s trying to lead their clients astray.

The additional drama is Elizabeth, Seth’s ex that used him to get with Coop has blackmailed him into dating her and this causes drama between him and Madison. Leighton, Coops ex also is trying to get him back and posting things on social media trying to cause a wedge with him and his family to split him and Madison up. He announces that Madison is his fiancé. Him and Madison also are caught hugging when he’s trying to comfort her after she got a package from her stalker with an old ripped up dress she threw out. They are tying to keep it hush hush about the group arrangement not only for their business but also to prevent the stalker from escalating. Noah is hurt because he wanted to be that guy.

They have an event to go to and to keep up the pretense that they aren’t all with the same woman they have to bring dates to it. Noah brings Sara who is only trying to make a guy she wants jealous and her and Madison become good friends. Blake refuses to bring anyone and ends up bringing his sister who also becomes Madison’s friend. Seth Brings Elizabeth. Madison is assaulted by her ex professor and she is saved by the guys lawyer, Patrick who drafted the sex contract.

Madison also makes a friend at work named Hope and she is shy and lives alone and has a brother that owns a bar. There are moments the women all hang out together.

Madison also gets assaulted by her roommate and roommates boyfriend they try to sexually assault her and Blake saves her and they have her move into the live in apartment at the company a week earlier that planned to keep her safe. Later we find out the stalker killed her roomate from the boyfriend. They have been taking pictures of her for the stalker who is paying them off but cut them off when she moves to the company. There were also cameras installed all over her apartment. They are told the stalker is rich.

Her old boss hires them to install security putting Madison back in sight of the bosses son, Hunter and after he’s caught trying to assault her by his dad she finally has to admit that Hunter has sexually harassed many women including her.

Because of all this stalker business she is basically in lockdown like a princess in a tower. I’m not going to write everything the stalker did but he eventually kidnapped her friend Hope and made the guys busy so Madison was by herself. He blackmails her, saying if she doesn’t do what he says he’ll kill her friend. She follows his instructions which is via a note in a box to go to her old apartment to shower for him. His next note tells her to go to garage parking to meet a limo driver there. Fortunately for her, her neighbor, Robert, who is obsessed with Madison (thought he was the stalker for a while) is always keeping an eye out for her and he’s able to get a pic of the phone instructions the stalker gave her to give a message to her guys since the stalker is tracking her messages. She is driven to a vacation home she finds out is from a lady she used to babysit for and also is the wife to Patrick the lawyer for the guys. Anna comes there thinking she’s going to catch her husband cheating because apparently he’s known for that. Madison tells her what’s going on and Anna doesn’t have signal in the house to call anyone so she has to step out. Before she does she says there’s a trapdoor in the basement where her friend could be. When Madison goes downstairs to find her friend someone slams the door and there’s a thump and a dragging sound of what could be a body and she doesn’t know if that’s Anna or not. She finds hope gets her untied. They verify the door is locked and then they hear Patrick come calling for Anna. Madison is worried it’s a trap but figured it’s best to be out of the basement and tells hope to run if things go south so the attacker doesn’t use her as leverage again. Poor Hope has been locked in there for 2 days with barely any food or water and only let to go to bathroom once a day.

When they get upstairs she feels something is fishy and tries to get everyone to leave before the stalker gets there. A guy in all
Black with a mask comes in and pulls his mask off. It’s Hunter but oh he isn’t working alone he teamed up with Patrick. Patrick is the mastermind behind all this and only got Hunter involved with a promise of getting Madison back for telling on him to his father but he would have to kill Patrick’s wife since she has a prenup and she’s the one with the money. Patrick wants her out of the way so he can be with Madison. Hunter wasn’t supposed to reveal himself but he didn’t want to kill anyone so Patrick drops the ruses and shoots Hunter killing him on the spot. Madison talks Patrick down before he tries to kill Anna as planned. He drugs Madison. While she is out, Hope already ran to safety the guys figured where Madison was based off the info Anna provided. Anna runs away and into the guys and tells them that Patrick is the stalker and has already killed Hunter and gives them the house layout. When they hear gunshots they run in. Blake gets grazed by a bullet and Coop gets shot on the side. They detain Patrick.

While Patrick is in prison he gets one more shot at them by telling the press about their arrangement and tried to play it off as if they forced Madison into it. So Madison meets with the press to give an interview about the truth of their relationship. 7 weeks later Patrick is killed by an unknown (it is assumed by Anna’s family) to make it look like a suicide. There is an extended epilogue where they live happily together and they have 6 kids and Madison takes over a company from a mentor.

WOW! This is the way to do why choose/reverse harem! All through all 4 of the Private Listing books there are a lot of hot and heavy steamy sexy scenes, but what CS Berry does so well, is she doesn't repeat the scenes and there are a lot of them, how Madison survived all of those amazing O's I don't know haha! These scenes weren't done for filler, they were done because she finds all of her men so dang hot and they all find Madison beautiful and no one could keep their hands off of each other which is how it should be when a relationship is starting out! Each scene is beautifully done and fits well within the story!

Now onto the story!! Wow, I thought I knew who the stalker was going into book 4 and I'm not going to give anything away, it will be a surprise for anyone who thought they knew, which is how it should be if an author does their job right and she did!! CS Berry left us breadcrumbs and also left us a few to throw us off track which any great author should! The ending was just perfect! From the reveal of the stalker to recovering from the trauma to moving on to life after free of the terror she had been living with for a month not knowing who the stalker was. Life after the stalker was written beautifully and not rushed in the least. The epilogues just made me want to cry, so awesome!!

Thank you to CS Berry to writing this awesome series. I never read it on Kindle Vella and I can't wait for her to release her other series into books!

Multi-cast duet narration with Michelle Sparks, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, JF Harding, and Grayson Owens as usual was amazing.

This was a pretty satisfying ending to the series. There were a few surprising twists in the story which definitely made it interesting. The dynamics between the 5 main characters wrapped up with a satisfactory conclusion and happily ever after. The epilogue was amazing!

I am so glad I had the chance to finish this series! I might not have gotten the first two, but I definitely got the last two and wow I am sooo happy about it!! Absolutely amazing work. The duet narration was so good with the 5 amazing narrators. Michelle Sparks, Grayson Owens, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, and JF Harding…..WOW is all I can say. Dark Star Romance did absolutely stunning with the production of this series. To combine that many recordings together as flawlessly as they did, yes, just yes!


This gave me so much closure and also shock. I figured out who the stalker was, but to know there was actually 2? I didn’t see that coming. I suspected the one, but wasn’t totally sure. And the fact that Cooper put his mother in her place was the best!! I love the way the author brought the author into the picture. Soooo good. And the SPICE!! Wooweeeeee, do I ever wish I was her haha!

Ooh I’m sorry this took a while for me to get through!! Life just happens!

Luckily however I don’t have to go through everything that Madison went through!

And let me tell you, this book was a rollercoaster. I will not talk too much about it, only that I might have shed a few tears at the end! I am proud of the woman Madison has become. She has endured so much and thanks to the guys, she has come out so much stronger.

This was an absolutely wonderful and spicy read (it’s crazy to think that there isn’t any repetition in the spicy scenes and they are always amazing).

Thank you very much to Wildfire Marketing Solutions and C.S. Berry for the free eArc in exchange for an honest review. I will definitely be reading more of this author in the future!🖤

Hot d*mn! This final edition packed a solid punch of sizzling sp*ce, tension, and suspense! Madison and her men never disappoint with their k*nky extracurricular activities. They are down right insatiable! I truly enjoyed seeing more of the men’s vulnerable sides and seeing what they were willing to do to keep their woman safe! The twists and turns on who was the true st*lker kept me on my toes. Even though I’m sad this series is over I am so glad I got a chance to read and listen to it! Worth it! Narration was done in Duet Multicast style with Michelle Sparks, Troy Duran, J.F. Harding, Sean Masters, and Grayson Owens. I’ve never listened to a more talented group of narrators than these individuals here. This performance was top tier, satisfying, and flawless. Thank you Dark Star Romance and C.S. Berry for this phenomenal ALC experience!!!!

WOW was I wrong on who I thought the stalker was!!! This is the last book in the Private Listing series and C.S. Berry does an amazing job bringing the story to an end. The epilogues made me wanna cry they were so beautifully written. Madison and the boys deserved happiness after the trauma.

This series is definitely HEAVY on the spice. I’m still not sure how Madison could still walk after all the sex she was having 😂😂😂

I was lucky enough to get this series as ALC’s from Dark Star Romance. I truly don’t think they could have picked a better all star cast of narrators

Tease me is the final installment of the Private Listing series and I was at the end of my seat. Not only because the casting was phenomenal, the spice was spicy but trying to tie together who was after our girl Madison. I was not expecting the little twist when we got the reveal but when thinking back, it actually made sense.

I did catch myself hoping that the stalker would be redeemable (my dark romance heart) but f that noise!! Lol.

I would do anything to experience this for the first time again but I throughly enjoyed this ride.

I was given a free ALC in exchange for my honest review from DarkStar Romance.

I am so sad this story is over 😫 it is such a fantastic series and let me reiterate how AWESOME the casting was for these MMC's and our FMC!

We FINALLY have answers on who the stalker is, who has been messing with their business and also, got rid of the horrible clingy bitches who can't take a hint!!!

I loved their story and how it all unfolded and how their family came together! It was perfect and I am keen to read more by C.S. Berry because 🔥🥵 wow can she write them spicy scenes!

Honestly, this entire series just landed up in my GOD TIER RATING because it was honestly that good, and that spicy!

I won't spoil this for anyone, just go read it, or listen to it because I expired with this series 💀

Kudos to the narrators for bringing it to life in such a phenomenal way with their excellent performance!

Produced by Dark Star Romance
Full Cast featuring Michelle Sparks, Grayson Owens, J.F Harding, Sean Masters and Troy Duran.

We've reached the conclusion of the series and there's a lot going on! The guys are fed up with people messing with Madison and put them in their place. More betrayals are revealed and when the stalker reveals themselves, the whole situation could end in disaster!

Dark Star Romance have produced an amazing audio experience throughout this whole series. With a full cast of top tier narrators, recorded in duet style, you're treated to a whole romantic suspense saga and it's flawless. The spice is still off the charts, as it has been the whole series and if you like your listens heavier on the spice than the plot, you're gonna love this series for sure!

ALC Review

I hated to see this series come to an end. After four books these characters feel like family to me.

I read all of the books and then listened to all four audiobooks. The audiobooks totally bring these characters to life and the narrators were perfect for each character.

In Tease Me - the stalker is finally revealed, but not before things happen to Madison, Cooper, and Blake.

These characters do everything possible to keep Madison safe, but Madison will do anything to keep her men and her friends safe. What will happen when she makes a wrong move to protect Hope safe?

The epilogues were awesome and I loved seeing their family all together. Especially after all those years they still cherish Madison and her them.

Audiobook was narrated by Michelle Sparks, Grayson Owens, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, and J.F. Harding.

Production: Dark Star Romance

Thank you Dark Star Romance and C.S. Berry for a chance to listen to the audiobooks.

Now I will be moving on to Sara’s story in the Obsession series:

Holy smokes, what an ending!! I really thought this series was going to be fluff and not really a story, but man was I totally wrong, the story and these characters were seriously everything. Every single one of the guys found a place in my heart like they did with Madison. And can we talk about Madison, girl was insatiable lol, but she was also funny and strong and so lovable! I loved her character so much! Everything that she went through and she just kept going!

I actually was a shocked at the twist for one of the characters, I had a feeling about the other… mainly because he was a little too obvious in his blasé attitude towards Madison.

I loved the guys, it took me a while to warm up to Seth and then the whole Blake betrayal thing… gah had me crying too because I was mad and shocked and like whyyyyy?!?! Haha I hated them being apart but also, this whole situation is definitely about trust and you cannot have this type of relationship if you do not have trust.

Sweet Noah and Coop were seriously the best in this book. I mean we finally got to see the real Coop, the man behind the games and laughs, the man who never really felt loved and was scared to tell Madison he loved her. He was seriously everything thing in this book.

And the epilogue!!!!!!!!! Oh my gosh!!! I freaking loved it! Idk how that would really work in the real world… but suspended belief I LOVED IT! I was so happy for all of them. loved that they kept the apartment and they still got to have their time together!

I really enjoyed this series so much, and the narrators really brought all the characters to life! Michelle Sparks - Madison, JF Harding - Noah, Grayson Owens - Cooper, Sean Masters - Blake, and Troy Duran - Seth!

This is it - the last book in the series!! Will Madison, Blake, Seth, Noah and Cooper make it through together? Who is the stalker? How can they make this work publicly? I had so many questions going into book 4 - and while this is a spoiler-free zone - we definitely get our answers!

The full cast audio for this book and entire series has been so good. I loved how each characters individual personalities really shine in the audio. The chemistry and emotions and banter has been so much fun to listen to!!

This book picks up where book 3 ends and we see Madison craving some normalcy and wanting to have a night with her friends…but she is still in danger. Blake, Seth, Noah and Cooper are determined to protect Madison - expect some twists leading up to the big reveal!

Yes, this book is also SUPER steamy but we also are diving more into deeper feelings as a group and as individuals. They have to explore what all 4 of publicly dating Madison would look like - and how it would affect them, especially her.

So I was right on who I suspected was the
Stalker, I didn't have the clue until after the ending of the third book, who else has figured it out because of the third book, I didn't have a clue. Until then then that just tweaked me
But it was good, and I really loved the ending of this book of how it wrapped up everything for years and years afterwards and showed the wonderfulness that can happen.That was really awesome.I loved the ending of this book.A nice, neat little bow

The last time I felt this way was reading the last 50 shades book (my personal favorite) I love when the action and spice come together! Learning everything about the guys while madison is dealing with her stalker and then everything coming to the head. I know I said I loved seeing the guys with other women but at one point I was ready to punch them. Everything with the stalker was so fun, right up still right before it was revealed who it was I was still thinking it was the wrong person! I finally had an inkling probably the same time as Madison and then was like OMG the signs were there! But I was distracted. I loved the ending and seeing how they end up together. I don't know how people don't read epilogues, that's always my favorite part. When books just end I'm like... that's it? we've been together this whole time and that's all i get to know? This series really put CS Berry not only on my radar but also on my list "If they write it, I read it"

Is the final book in the Private Listing Series by C.S. Berry. This author knows how to write a why choose and her spice will absolutely melt your brain. In this fourth and final book our FMC Madison is still being hunted by an obsessed stalker and the mystery about who causing trouble for her and her men is the main focus of this one. The mystery will be wrapped up and you’ll get that HEA you’ve been craving. This one has a lot of suspense and ALOT of spice. Fun story with great characters and I really enjoyed this series!
The audio for this series is produced flawlessly with an all star multicast format.
We have the amazing and sultry Michelle Sparks She was spot on as Madison. It was so great to listen to her learn she can fully rely on this group of men that she wasn’t supposed to fall for. Sean Masters as Blake was perfection as always but I loved the way he gave this very stoic character a heart and vulnerability. Troy Duran as Seth was honestly so good. This character could’ve easily been portrayed as just the dominant one of the group but the way he cared for Madison was so refreshing. Noah and Cooper played by JF Harding and Grayson Owens. These two were so sweet and they gave us that golden retriever energy. But the mouths on these two. Filthy in the best way. I have no complaints. Great way to wrap up the series. Excellent performances throughout. Loved it!

A perfect ending to a fabulous series. I’ve loved everything about these cliff hanging books and will definitely be looking for more from Author CS Berry.

The relationship that started between Madison and her men started as something mutually beneficial but it has matured into love. There’s still lots of steamy scenes and the answer to some of the remaining questions, like who is the stalker.

You need to read these books in order.

Tease Me by C.S. Berry is the explosive, satisfying conclusion to the Private Listing series, proving exactly how a high-stakes "why choose" romance should be done. After four books of building tension, this final installment masterfully balances the series’ signature intense, scorching chemistry with the long-awaited answers to the mystery that has plagued Madison throughout her journey.

What sets this series apart is how C.S. Berry handles intimacy; despite the high volume of steamy scenes across the four books, none of them feel like filler or recycled content. Each encounter is unique, intentional, and deeply rooted in the characters' growing connection. The mutual obsession between Madison and her four billionaire protectors—Blake, Seth, Noah, and Cooper—is palpable, making their physical journey feel like a natural, essential part of their emotional evolution.

The plot finally reaches a fever pitch as the identity of Madison’s stalker is unmasked. The reveal is genuinely surprising, and the author does a brilliant job of leaving breadcrumbs while strategically throwing in red herrings to keep the reader guessing until the end. Following the climax, the story takes the time to breathe, allowing the characters to recover from their trauma and transition into a life free of terror. The pacing here is particularly commendable; nothing feels rushed, and the epilogues provide a deeply emotional, tear-jerking conclusion that perfectly honors the characters' growth.

While some fans might have hoped for a more detailed look at the later stages of Madison’s personal journey, the narrative remains focused on the core strength of this group: their unbreakable bond. The transition from a mutually beneficial arrangement to a genuine, loving partnership is earned, and it is rewarding to see these characters find their "happily ever after" despite the shadows of their past.

The audiobook production once again serves as the definitive way to experience this story. The talented ensemble cast—Michelle Sparks, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, Grayson Owens, and J.F. Harding—brings an incredible level of immersion to the characters. Their delivery of the banter, the intense emotional shifts, and the scorching chemistry is flawless, making the listener feel like a participant in the drama rather than just an observer.

Ultimately, Tease Me is a triumph for the series. It delivers a darker, more suspenseful edge without losing the "sinful" heat that fans have come to love. If you are looking for an addictive, well-paced "why choose" romance that manages to be both indulgent and surprisingly tender, this final chapter is an absolute must-listen.

So now that I’ve read this series a second time, let’s recap pros and letdowns, shall we?

PROS
• Carolina Reaper-level spiciness! 🌶️
• There was a ton of plot in book 4 to wrap up the stalker and corporate spy storylines, which kept it interesting
• The MMCs were all solid, even when they screwed up a bit, and their level of dedication to the FMC was swoon-worthy
• The cliffhangers of books 1 - 3 were all good at wanting to jump into the next book
• The twist with the stalker was good, albeit short
• Across 4 books, I spotted just one spelling mistake! It was so nice to be able to read things clearly and not have my eyes twitch at the grammar (sad that this is such a win, but hey 🤷🏻‍♀️)
• It’s just an easy set of books to read. Not really dark, but just shadowy enough to keep you going, and a nice palate cleanser, especially when you NEED spice!

LETDOWNS
• I wish there had been a few more details about what ended up happening to the corporate spy. I wanted to know if they like went to jail or got blacklisted or something!
• I wish the FMC had made the
• The FMC absolutely marveling repeatedly that she has friends was a tad annoying because it made her seem socially inept. You mean to tell me that she didn’t maintain a single friendship for any length of time throughout her entire life?! Even casual friendships with peers and classmates would’ve given her some interpersonal connection. This made her relationships with the MMCs and her previous dating history of random hookups seem as though she only was able to connect with anyone at a peer-level through sex, which feels a bit sexist.
• The same goes for the FMC supposedly never watching TV or seeing a movie. It made her sound like she completed college in a log cabin in the woods with no electricity. Yes, she studied and worked all the time completing her Bachelor’s and Master’s in four years, but it makes it sound like she has never seen the good ol’ square box with moving pictures before.
• Even though there were some twists, I feel like book 4 alluded to the stalker’s identity too much before the reveal

**Honorable mention: it’s unintentionally hilarious that this entire series occurs over the span of like 4 weeks (not including for the initial aftermath of the plot and epilogues)

Even though there are some critical points, it’s just a fun series to devour on a beach vacation or over a long weekend! 😍

Private Listing: Tease Me absolutely delivers—this is how you do why choose / reverse harem romance right.

Across all four books in the Private Listing series, there is no shortage of hot, heavy, and undeniably steamy scenes, but what C.S. Berry does exceptionally well is avoid repetition. And that’s saying something, because there are a lot of intimate moments. Somehow, none of them feel recycled or lazy. Each scene feels intentional, unique, and tailored to the characters involved. Honestly, how Madison survived all of those mind-blowing O’s is beyond me—girl has stamina. 😅

What really works here is that the smut never feels like filler. These scenes exist because the attraction is intense and mutual—Madison finds all of her men irresistibly hot, and they clearly find her just as captivating. No one can keep their hands off each other, and that feels natural and believable, especially in the early stages of a relationship where desire is overwhelming and constantly simmering. Every scene is beautifully written and fits seamlessly into the story rather than interrupting it.

Plot-wise, this book also brings some long-awaited answers. The stalker is finally revealed—and trust me, you will not guess who it is. Just when you think everything is wrapped up, there’s another layer added with a second, more subtle stalkerish element. I won’t spoil anything, but once you read it, you’ll understand exactly what I mean.

The only thing that fell slightly short for me was the lack of focus on Madison’s pregnancies. I really would have loved to see more of that journey—her at different stages, the emotional moments of telling her men she was pregnant, and maybe even a few pregnancy-era spicy scenes. Given how strong the relationships are, those moments could have added even more depth and intimacy to an already powerful dynamic.

Overall, Tease Me is a fantastic conclusion to the series—steamy, emotionally satisfying, and well-paced. If you love why choose romance with lots of heat, strong chemistry, and characters who genuinely crave one another, this series—and this book in particular—is absolutely worth your time. 🔥

This book is chapter 4 of a 4 part story, so it’s a little hard to review on its own and I definitely would not recommend it as a standalone.
The basics are that Madison, a brilliant 22 year old in New York has just landed her dream starter job as the executive assistant to the four gorgeous and powerful young men that run a top cyber security firm. She also has a side agreement to live with them and be their sexual partner. It was supposed to be an arrangement of convenience but of course everyone has caught feelings. This also means that the book is about 75% sex between the horniest 5 people I may have ever read about (and please hear me when I say that this is not a complaint on my part). Aside from that we finally find out who Madison’s stalker is, who the corporate spy trying to take down their business is and several nasty people in their loves get their comeuppance. There is more action and the stakes are revved up for this final chapter of the story.
I highly recommend the audiobook. The narrators are all so talented and bring such gravity to roles that are basically endless group sex with a side of protective aftercare and a little macho business posturing. I’m honestly not sure how I would have felt about these men if they weren’t voiced by Grayson Owens, Sean Masters, Troy Duran and JF Harding. It is a real dream cast of actors with very different voices and performance styles. And then Michelle Sparks brings it all together as Madison, highlighting both her determination and her vulnerability. She somehow makes us believe that one woman could actually survive that many orgasms (I counted 18 in one day) in such a short time - I’m not sure if it is physically possible, even at 22.
If you like Why Choose, Billionaire, work place darkish romance with a ton of spice and a nice variety of different kinks, this book does that well and the audiobook makes it a damn good time. I can honestly say that while there isn’t a ton of plot I was still totally hooked and I am hoping that Madison’s friend Sarah will be getting her own series with her multiple love interests.
Thank you to Dark Star Romance and author C.S. Berry for the chance to listen to and review a copy of this audiobook.

I get why many people didn't make it to the last book, but I'm glad I did. Yes, there's an excessive amount of sex, but I listened to the audiobooks while doing other stuff, so it didn't bother me. I ended up really enjoying the last book.
The Elizabeth (Seth's old gf)and Seth fake dating thing was anger inducing. BTW, he doesn't cheat with her. I tried to look it up ahead of time, because cheating has become a hard no for me. There weren't many posts about it. Seth does kiss Elizabitch (as she is now called by Cooper). It happens when they are in the same restaurant as Noah, his fake date Sara (we love her), Cooper and our fmc, Madison are watching. Seth only did it because the ow said she would out him for wanting to sleep with the fmc, who was only publicly dating and engaged to Cooper. This was a weak way to do this, because at this point, this ow doesn't even know he's already with the fmc. Madison gets upset and goes to the bathroom but Seth comes in moments after and apologized telling her they'll try to find a way out of him fake dating the ow. He is genuinely sorry for upsetting her and promises he won't ever let that happen again. They do find a way to get rid of E-bitch.
I liked that our 4 mmc's were all about the fmc. The fake dating only lasted a few dates then they decided to just come out with their poly dating situation.
I ended up liking the series as a whole, but books 2 and 3 had so much sex that I thought MY vagina should be sore and I should possibly get checked for a UTI, just from listening to it! There's definitely some HOT times though!
If you are looking for super spice with a bit of decent enough plot, I recommend this series on audiobook.
Almost forgot, I hated the nicknames they gave her. I don't like kitten, but it won't make me dnf. For the love of all that is holy, please don't ever have another grown man, call a grown woman, especially one he has sex with, tiger. Holy hell, that was biggest thing I didn't like about this series. Tiger is for a child, not a woman you just railed in every hole! That's my big rant.
Even having said that, i can see listening to these books again.

Tease Me by C.S. Berry is the fourth and final book in the Private Listing series.

Tease Me is the fourth and final book in C.S. Berry’s Private Listing series, and it wraps up the series’ why-choose billionaire romance arc with a darker, more suspenseful edge. The book centers on Madison, who is trying to rebuild her life after a difficult internship and a disturbing situation with her boss’s son, only to be pulled into an interview with four powerful men (Blake, Seth, Noah, and Cooper) who quickly become the focus of both her career and her desire. Add to that a stalker that seems to get bolder and more dangerous with each book, and there’s a lot to enjoy in this series.

As the final installment, Tease Me brings the storyline back to a stronger plot focus after the earlier books leaned heavily into relationship development and spice. It also ties into the series’ darker elements, including secrets, stalker tension, and the pressure of trusting one another when outside threats and public exposure become part of the conflict. Things are wrapped up and/or explained, and I really enjoyed the epilogues.

This audiobook works because it balances heat with heart. The story leans into the messy, addictive push-and-pull between Madison her four men, while still giving the romance enough emotional grounding to feel satisfying. The result is a listen that feels indulgent in the best way: dramatic, spicy, and surprisingly tender when it needs to be. The audiobook format seems to elevate the whole experience. That matters here, because the book depends heavily on voice, tension, and chemistry, and the narration helps sell all three.

Michelle Sparks, Grayson Owens, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, and J.F. Harding do an amazing job narrating these characters that will stick with me long after I write this review. Their performances are a big reason this feels so immersive, since the delivery helps carry the banter, spice, and emotional shifts so effectively.

This was definitely my favourite of the series - this is the plot I was looking forward to! I loved the reveal of the stalker; it was written in such a way that everyone was suspicious and that suspense is what has had me hooked from the beginning as like Maddison I was constantly ruling people in and out! The spice to plot ratio is still stacked (its high and constant spice) and I was worried the plot would feel rushed but it wasn't; all the threads are resolved and the action in the reveal scenes was great.

The audio continues to be superb; the chemistry is amazing. Michelle Sparks was so good when Maddison went into action mode - the scenes where she went back to her apartment towards the end and had an actual plan and kept her cool when it came to confronting the stalker were great. Throughout the series I felt like I was told Maddison was good at her job so many times but never really saw her doing anything; seeing her make a plan on the hoof and put it into motion outwith the MMCs was really satisfying. I just wished we'd seen more of this development earlier in the series.

The MMCs all have their own moments too. I still found myself frustrated at Coop for being the catalyst for so much angst although he did finally admit his part at one point. I never quite over Noah not being the public boyfriend but I am biased as J F Harding is one of my favourites! I also liked the unpacking of Blake's trust issues and how that was resolved. I love a flash forward and the epilogue is super sweet.

I'm keen to see where Sara's story goes next and if she ever catches Wyatt's attention!

My interpretation of the star system;
3 stars - I enjoyed it; would read the author again
4 stars - I really liked it; I am invested and definitely want more from this author/series
5 stars - I loved it; I engaged with this book completely until I finished it and it is one I will re-read

Tease Me by C.S. Berry is the fourth—and final—installment in the Private Listing series. It’s still packed with why-choose sharing and extreme spice, but it also delivers plenty of love and devotion. Berry remains the queen of RH/why-choose for me. Private Listing was the first series I read/listened to in this lane, and it definitely won’t be my last.
We finally learn who the mole is and who the stalker is. Part of it felt predictable (in a satisfying way), but there were also twists I didn’t see coming—and I can’t say more without spoiling it. I also loved the epilogues, but again: no details, because they’re too good to ruin. The story stays high-drama and high-tension throughout, and I enjoyed watching them work together to make it to the other side. By the end, they’re fully in sync—trusting each other and communicating in ways beyond just words. The chemistry and banter (between the main characters and their friends) continues to be a highlight, and the relationships really blossom once honesty is on the table. I can’t wait to read Sarah’s book next, and I’m really hoping Madison, Hope, and Kayla show up again—or, even better, that Hope and Kayla get books of their own. Bonus points if my favorite narrators return for the audio.
Michelle Sparks, Grayson Owens, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, and J.F. Harding continue to do a fantastic job with the full-cast narration. Did I immediately look up other books they’ve narrated? Yes—yes, I did. I already started a list for what to listen to next.
Tropes:
• Why-choose / sharing romance (MFMMM)
• Billionaire / workplace romance
• BDSM elements (adult romance)
• Found family
• Stalker + business sabotage
• Submissive heroine grows into her confidence
• Violence / threats

🎧 Tease Me by C.S. Berry

And just like that… another series comes to an end. It feels like lately I’ve been listening to so many final installments, saying goodbye to characters I’ve spent hours with while also looking forward to whatever adventure comes next.

Tease Me delivers a satisfying conclusion to the Private Listing series, bringing together the suspense, emotion, romance, and answers that have been building throughout the previous books. The stalker storyline finally reaches its climax, and I loved trying to piece together the clues along the way. The reveal genuinely surprised me, and the ending gave these characters the closure they deserved.

But once again, the real standout for me was the audiobook production.

Dark Star Romance continues to set the bar ridiculously high when it comes to multicast narration. Michelle Sparks, Sean Masters, Troy Duran, Grayson Owens, and J.F. Harding brought so much life, emotion, and personality to every scene. The chemistry between the cast felt effortless, making it easy to become completely immersed in Madison, Blake, Seth, Noah, and Cooper’s story.

The performances elevated every moment—from the lighter banter to the emotional scenes and the suspense-filled moments that kept me listening long past bedtime.

After four books, it was wonderful to see this journey come full circle. Saying goodbye is never easy, but this finale felt like the perfect blend of heartfelt goodbyes and beautiful new beginnings.

🎧 Multicast Narration:
• Michelle Sparks
• Sean Masters
• Troy Duran
• Grayson Owens
• J.F. Harding

⭐ Another fantastic production from Dark Star Romance and a memorable finale to a series I’ve thoroughly enjoyed listening to.

sighs dramatically… I never thought I would say this line, it pains me truly… but I skipped most of the sex scenes. Shock, horror, utter nonsense.

Trust me, I like my smut — spice, depraved, MM, MF, MFMM, kinky, vanilla, all shapes and forms, all entrances… truly I have no filter and nothing shocks me. But this was too much… four books of non-stop fornication. Good grief, my insides are chafing at the mere thought.

Things got pretty boring too. It was all just Noah was in there while Coop thrust on the other side, and as Blake was choking me to death with his cock, and Seth was pulling me into his lap… they all took turns on the fun ride. Even Disney gets tiring.

That aside… this book did have more plot, and I enjoyed it to a certain extent. It was clever, I’ll give it that. I kinda figured out who the stalker was in the previous book, but they somehow missed all the clues. Considering they were a top-tier security company, they had so many issues and internal breaches that were clearly inside jobs that could only point to a few people… and somehow they didn’t get it until the last minute when they needed to rescue the girls.

Kudos though to the narration— spectacular duet style with five different great voices that I usually listen to. And I did have an earworm that soothed my cravings: when Blake says in that breathy voice “take everything off like a good girl”… Sean Masters, sir… that is a crime against my insides.

Again… this could have been a two-book deal maximum, and I think that would have made me rate it higher.
