That is, until Gabrielle and Dell find themselves competing against each other for the account at a wilderness survival weekend. Since he's in touch with the great outdoors, Dell figures that naturally extends to Gabrielle and those sexy legs of hers. But Gabrielle has a few tricks up her sleeve.
And nothing stimulates a sexual appetite like a little fresh air, a tiny little tent, and a whole lot of libido!

"A fun sexy listen"
This is a story of an office romance between Dell and Gabby, two marketing account managers that want the same big sporting company account. They find themselves competing in a wilderness survival challenge in order to determine who will get the account. Though Dell clearly has the advantage to win, the author of this book does a great job of using Dell's brawn, Gabby's smarts and dumb luck circumstances to help even out the competition. In fact, this author goes to great length to be unpredictable - even before the competition begins. It really made the story most interesting, and kept me listening well past bedtime. Dell & Gabby made a great couple (with some serious passion and heat being exchanged between these two), and the secondary characters were also interesting and added to mayhem and fun. This is my first book by this author, and I will search out more. Overall, it was a light, funny, sexy and unpredictable book. The naration was really good too! For a HQN Blaze book, I was impressed.
"A MUST read and listen!"
I read this book the first time around and when I saw it available in audible--had to listen to it! It's fun, full of surprises and makes the underdog vs. champion relationship between Dell and Gabby so believable, sexy and full of charge. I can't wait to find more books by this author.
"shrill narration"
Narrator's whiny, high pitched, sharp voice not at all suited to romance novels. She makes seduction scenes sound like Disney cartoon characters discussing kindergarten sandbox maneuvers.
"Pretty Cute!"
This was light but fun. It is an enjoyable story of changing your life by using your brains and preparedness! Enjoyable!
I honestly write these reviews in a spirit of sharing and helpfulness. I have no idea why I always end up sounding so snotty...
"Pleasant"
A servicable romance in most respects but it's a little skimpy on the passionate payoff at the end. But fun.
I love books, it's my great escape.
"A fun,. sexy quick romance fix!! Worth the listen!"
I really liked this story. Gabbie will have you laughing out loud. This is a short story so things move along pretty quickly but it does not detract from the romance between Gabbie and Del. It's simply a very good story with the right amount of spice. I will be looking for more from this author. I already like the narrator who does a good job with this one too.
I have an addiction to Audio books. What I can't get at the library, I come to Audible and they are always having a sale. I have way more audiobooks than I could possible listen to in over 3 years, but I can't help but adding to my collection and I read a little of everything but mostly romance and paranormal goodies.
"Fun Story."
I enjoyed this story for it's adventure. Not super thrilled with the main guy character, he was kinda a jerk. But worth the price.
"Terrible nasal narrator"
Her nasal voice made the male lead sound like a little boy with a cold. Gave all the charaters a nasal sounding voice. Loved the story.
"Enjoyable read"
This book was funny and actually made me laugh out loud at times. I enjoyed having a short read for once. I usually listen to books that average 14 hours. This was light and delightful.
