Publisher's summary

It was only supposed to be a vacation romance. Passionate, exciting - and short-lived. But when Jewel Henley arrived for her first day of work at a new job, she realized her exotic lover was in fact Piers Anetakis, her boss. A boss who had a strict rule about not getting involved with his employees. And so, just like that, Jewel was fired. With no money and no job, Jewel doubted it could get any worse. Then she discovered she was pregnant and that she'd have to confront Piers. Piers stormed back into her life with the same passion and intensity that had swept her off her feet five months before. But as loving as he was with her, she knew he still didn't trust her. And until he did, all they had was an affair.

Unexceptional

I'd hate to say "The Affair" was a waste of time but I couldn't identify with the characters. I really don't know why. It may have been the narration; the way it was presented or the content. I just couldn't relate.

Good story but performance brought it down

Feminine vocal for male parts did not work. Very distracting from story line. Kind of hard to follow Alpha male with high raspy voice.

So so.

Dislike the narrator. Her male voice sounded like she had a sore throat. It distracted from the book. Was able to finish the book but left disappointed.

Interesting soap opera

I was never into television soaps, but this written one was kind of interesting. I could understand the hero in this one. His baggage made sense.

Strong Women Prevail

I like the way this author writes strong women. The third in a series, it’s another winner. I liked Jewel and how she handled her relationship with Piers, the playboy of the brothers. Love runs deeper than blood. Nice audiobook and well read.

Read this series.

I loved this series. They storylines kept me captivated throughout without any frustrating repetitions or draw out plots. It was a delightful change from so many other books I’ve listened to lately that all sound the same.
