Publisher's summary

How did the worst date of his life turn in to the man of his dreams?

Carter Winter’s not sure there’s anything worse than watching the man he’s on a date with slip his number to the bartender...except maybe finding out six months later that his bad date is his new boss who doesn't seem to remember Carter or that night. He wants to run, but he also knows he can’t pass up this opportunity. After all, it's been his dream to work at London Enterprise, and he can't turn it down now, even if it means working as a PA for Rhys London.

Fortunately, Rhys seems like an entirely different man. And while Carter doesn’t want to trust him, that isn’t easy when Rhys makes him want to believe in second chances. Carter’s been burned before, but being graced with one of the man’s rare smiles, Carter finds himself absolutely helpless against the racing beat of his heart.

Rhys London has never been a man of feeling. Spending most of his life running his company and cleaning up after his destructive brother, he hasn’t had time for things like love.

Until his business partner hired Carter Winter - a bright, beautiful man who makes Rhys want to feel.

And while Rhys is used to losing out and shutting off his heart, something about Carter makes him want to reach for the unreachable. After all, Carter is the first person he’s ever met that makes him believe in love, without a single doubt.

Without a Doubt is the first book in a romantic, light-hearted, small town trilogy. It contains no cheating, and a happily ever after.

Such an excellent listen.

These two characters are awesome for each other. The road is bumpy but the finale makes the grade. Now on to the next one.

Started off good!

I really liked the premise and it started off strong, but the formation of "taking things to the next level" between the main characters felt forced. Maybe this is just because I'm a Capricorn, but I didn't feel like the decisions they were making made sense in a professional setting - hear me out! They would do things against their better judgement. but the sense of urgency wasn't there to have logically overcome that judgement. And they kept talking about how they felt so much for each other, and how the other one was different that anyone else, but I never actually saw those differences occur. They had some very normal conversations, and suddenly they were head over heels? It just made me feel like nobody ever talked to them, and they were grasping at the first person to look their way.

I also didn't completely care for the vocals, sorry! I thought that the delivery of some emotional lines felt like he was reading from a newspaper.

All in all, a very okay read, and completely worth the $3 paid for it.

big age gaps aren't appealing

I only made it through a couple chapters until I realized how big the age Gap is going to be and I don't find those books appealing so I am returning it
