All Superheroes Need Photo Ops by Elizabeth Stephens

When stellar storytelling meets powerhouse narration, sparks fly.

Audio Review – 5 Stars:

The audio experience completely leveled this story up for me. I already loved the world Elizabeth Stephens created, but Sean Crisden and Emory Erickson’s narration took it to another level.

They captured Monika and Taranis’s energy perfectly—his sharp edges, her fierce determination, and all the tension crackling between them. The banter felt alive, the emotion hit harder, and the chemistry? Off the charts. Crisden’s voice work for Taranis especially brought out layers I hadn’t fully appreciated in the ebook, while Erickson made Monika’s mix of strength and vulnerability shine.

The production is polished, immersive, and makes this already bold, spicy, morally gray romance even more dynamic. If you enjoy your superhero stories with heat, humor, and heart, the audio is the way to go.

E-book Review – 4 Stars:

I was so excited for Monika’s story after loving All Superheroes Need PR earlier this year, and this follow-up definitely delivered on action, spice, and morally gray chaos.

Monika, a fearless war photographer, ends up working with Taranis, the lightning-wielding “golden boy” of the Champions—except he’s not nearly as heroic as his image suggests. Their dynamic is messy, dangerous, and utterly compelling. He falls first (hard, though he’ll never admit it), she’s torn between her mission and her heart, and somehow they fit together better than either expects. There’s even a stolen-bed situation, some delicious “who hurt you” moments, and cameos from Vanessa and Roland that made me grin.

This one definitely leans into the monster/alien romance side of the series, and it brings the heat. Some of the kink elements weren’t exactly my personal preference, but that’s more about me than the writing—they were still well-handled and fit the characters. What stood out most was how fiercely Monika protects Taranis, even when she’s meant to be spying on him, and how unflinchingly Stephens writes her heroes as villains. Taranis may not be the Champion anyone expected, but he’s absolutely right for Monika.

I had so much fun with this book and I’m already eager to see where this world goes next. If you like your romances with high stakes, scorching spice, and unapologetically morally gray heroes, this one’s for you.
