40 and (Tired of) Faking It

Silver Foxes of Black Wolf's Bluff, Book 1

De: Ella Sheridan

Narrado por: Willa Jaymes, Oliver Highpoint

Welcome to Black Wolf’s Bluff, where turning forty doesn’t mean your life is over. It might just mean the spark that can light up everything is right around the corner.

She’s turning forty.

Lily Easton’s series of lackluster boyfriends ended three years ago with the ex from hell—self-absorbed, thoughtless, and seriously bad in bed. After she dumped him, he told everyone in their small town she was the horrible lover. Being made the dating-pool pariah allowed her to focus on her goal of becoming the first female mayor of Black Wolf’s Bluff, but with that accomplished, the arrival of Lily’s fortieth birthday is a stark reminder of everything she’s still lacking: love, commitment, and some seriously intense orgasms.

He's here to do a job.

John David Lane walked away from Black Wolf’s Bluff thirty years ago, determined to find his own success and leave behind the family who hated him. Now he’s back, but not to stay. He plans to turn the family estate he has inherited into a high-end resort, the kind that would completely transform this backwoods town. To succeed, he’ll need the help of the “lady mayor,” but he didn’t count on the desire for something far more personal with Lily than political negotiations.

Dive into an all-new small-town romance that proves falling in love isn’t impossible after forty—and neither are seriously intense orgasms!

Fabulous listen!! Loved it!

John is back in town to do something with the land that he has inherited. The plan is to build a resort. Lily, the mayor is a little concerned and is determined to show him just how using the assets of Black Wolf's Bluff will make it the success he wants and benefit her town. As they spend time together though, things change. Feelings between these two grow, and while it's about the good of the town, the budding relationship is growing. There are obstacles though. John isn't staying in town if things go his way. Build the resort and it will run. So should they get involved? Then there is the townspeople that don't want it and will go to any extreme to cause a problem. Where does it all lead? This is the kind of book I truly enjoy. A mature couple with common goals and chemistry. Can't beat this! The witty banter is on point and all around makes the story so exciting!

Oliver Highpoint and Willa Jaymes are the story tellers for this one, and a better casting could not have been made. Highpoint is John, and while he can be a tough guy at times, he is a marshmallow at heart. His voice is has the perfect sound for John. Jaymes is Lily, a strong and independent woman with every nuance coming through with emphasis. She is passionate about her job and John, and it's evident in each scene. This is fabulous narration and fun listen.
