Publisher's summary

Sleeping with the enemy? Well, now she works for me.

Rian was my rival in college, vying for the same internship. Sometimes enemies are fire between the sheets - we were. Until she walked off with the internship. Now, the smart-mouthed beauty who always kept me guessing got downsized and takes a job out in Nebraska out of desperation.

She's working for me. I don't mind her working under me, but I'd rather have her in bed. Or across this desk. Her ideas are brilliant and the flirting is hot, so we're playing with fire. Against company regulations, we have a blazing secret affair. I can't get enough of her, and I know she feels the same way.

Everything's like a fantasy until a phone call sends her into a panic, and our sexy business trip is cut short. Because Rian has a secret. She took more from me than that internship in college. She has a daughter - my daughter. A child who was kept secret from me by the enemy I've come to love. Nothing can ever be the same now that I know her secret.

Contains mature themes.

Soo cute

Such a cute story. I loved everything about this story. The reader were good. They definitely made this story better. Highly recommend

female narration was awful

The character Rian James and West Brown were magnificent, impressive
Annie Ross needed make West assistance not so boring

Story was pretty good, narration sucked!

The guy wasn't to bad but the female was awful! The story was pretty good but I almost stop listening because of the narration.

Good Story

overall it was a pretty good story. could have used a little bit more content.

great book

I would definitely recommend this book, the narrators where amazing as well. Really enjoyed listening to this book. it made me laugh.

Love

The performance was great, specially the male lead. First I was angry with the heroine for not telling, but in the end it all worked out

Okay but very glad I didn’t pay for this.

The story itself is fine but the characters are quite annoying, the writing is pretty bad and it outside of the two main characters there is almost no other storyline. It was short enough that I made it though, but it wasn’t easy.

Not so great characters [spoilers]

Listened on Audible and read along thru KU membership.

Only found this story searching for Wayne Mitchell as Narrator .... love his natural voice, but not found if his alternate character voices.
Elizabeth Hart's narration always get on my nerves. She ends so many sentences with the an upsweep inflection of a question or of pauses.


Disliked the FMC.

Rian's inner dialog seems insecure, immature, and lacking confidence. How was she a single career mother in NYC? How did she make it for 7yrs?
Who keeps their child a secret from the company? She didn't know Wes even worked at this company, so there is no reason to hide that from your employment records. Rian needed to include her daughter to have her on the insurance and make sure she's listed on the life insurance, etc. This is unrealistic and foolish.

As the new CEO Wes should have immediately called HR and George. Then again when the kid, Ronny, is revealed as his unknown child.

The whole email story? Please!!! Beth never should have been listened to after the "dinner / calendar" overstep.
Why didn't he bring in his own assistant? Beth would have been sent to HR for a write up just with her bitchy attitude on Rian's first day! I funny tolerate that bullshit.

Thought it odd there was never a mention of their parents. They were both from NB, did they stay in NorthPlatte or were they in a smaller community? I would have preferred some of these details instead of hearing over and over and over and over and over how she kept the birth a secret. WE GOT IT THE FIRST TIME -->STOP REPEATING <-- FOR THE SAKE OF WORD COUNT.

Wes should have contacted an attorney immediately, regardless of needing to move forward with any legalities.

Decent HEA
Would not use a credit for book or audio. Enjoyable if included in subscriptions.

Not that good

I can’t decide if the narrators made the dialog poor, or if the dialog was not great. Probably both. I wouldn’t listen to these narrators again either way. Their voice acting isn’t fluid and natural.

The overall storyline is decent: second chance romance with a secret child from their tryst. I really wanted to like this story, probably would be better to read the print book Reamer than listen to this one.

Unlikable female mc

The female lead character lack of empathy for her child and child's father is off-putting. Any concern for them is immediately followed by her wants that are prioritized above all else.

The poor male mc is treated so poorly, his interest in the female lead doesn't make sense.
