About that Night

FBI-US Attorney Series, Book 3

By: Julie James

Narrated by: Karen White

Though Rylann Pierce tried to fight the sparks she felt for billionaire heir Kyle Rhodes the night they met, their sizzling chemistry was undeniable. But after being stood up on their first date, Rylann never expected to see him again. So when she finds herself face to face with Kyle in a courthouse nine years later, she's stunned. More troubling to the beautiful Assistant U.S. Attorney is that she's still wildly attracted to him.

Just released from prison, Kyle Rhodes isn't thrilled to be the star witness in a high-profile criminal case - but when Rylann comes knocking at his door, he finds she may be the one lawyer he can't say no to. Still as gorgeous and sharp-tongued as ever, she lays down the law: she doesn't mix business with pleasure. But Kyle won't give up on something he wants - and what he wants is the one woman he's never forgotten....

Critic reviews

"One of contemporary romance's superstars." ( San Francisco Book Review)

Great listen..

Any additional comments?

This wasn't as good as the other two books but I still enjoyed it. I really liked Kyle and Rylann but there was no suspense in the story, like there was in the others. It was nice to see Rae again, as well as Jack, Cameron, Nick and Jordan. I've really enjoyed this series and I'm off to read the next one now.

As to the narrator: Ms. White keeps surprising me with her narration. She did a wonderful job with the voices in this book.

Entertaining & Non Violent

Julie James has a wonderful talent for creating strong female characters who have interesting lives, rather than boring wimps who are waiting for a man to fulfill them.

Kyle was smart, funny, caring and nonviolent, the perfect male romantic hero. His relationship with an assertive & talented US Attorney was entertaining & engrossing.

Perfect romantic comedy.

I love this series and reread it often. Perfect intelligent banter and hilarious narration. Love Julie James.

Hot sexy fun

They barely met when he disappears completely from her life. Many years later they meet again. These FBI series stories are a lot of fun. Each story introduces new characters while retaining a few from other books in the series. Loved these. Yes, they are fluff!! So much wealth. In all these stories, the characters are high achieving and well heeled. Where are the stories of the girl next store with two babies and unable to make rent?

Clever plot + serious chemistry = Perfection!

Story - This book has likeable, strong, smart lead characters. The plot has an interesting legal aspect which makes the background story interesting, and the way the characters meet and continue their romance is clever and romantic. They have serious chemistry for each other, which culminates in a couple pretty detailed, steamy episodes in the bedroom. The computer hacking element is a hoot, and so is some of the banter between the characters. My favorite is "Like Bambi taking his first steps"..... it's priceless! I wouldn't change anything about this story. It has everything you could hope for in a romantic novel.

Narrator - Good job. She does mispronounce a couple words, but it doesn't detract from the story. The male voice she gives Kyle is okay (it doesn't sound adolescent or nasally), but some female readers can do much better men.

Overall - If you like contemporary romance, you will probably love this book.
