A Tempting Arrangement

Twisted Vows, Book 1

De: J. Wilder

Narrado por: Jack Calihan, Alexis Paige

Marry or lose his inheritance—that's the ultimatum billionaire Damon Everette faces. There's one problem. The woman he craves is his sunshine PR rep… who wants nothing to do with him.

Ruthless, arrogant, and cold-hearted are some of the words I would use to describe my a**hole of a boss, Damon Everette.

That doesn't stop the goosebumps from rising along my neck every time he says my name or the way my pulse races when his stormy gray eyes pierce mine.

So, when he coerces me into a fake marriage to uphold his family's tradition, I can't resist pushing his buttons.

He's a walking red flag, and I should run the second this arrangement ends. But the very thought of losing him is suffocating—a dangerous addiction that I can't seem to break.

Is this really love or just a twisted desire to own me? And deep down, do I secretly crave to be possessed by him?

A Tempting Arrangement is a red flag billionaire, marriage of convenience, standalone romance from USA Today bestselling author J. Wilder.

Voice actors

The voice actors were amazing! Made me get into! I love the duet style the best

Duet narration!

I really liked this book, the narrators and it was sooo much more enjoyable because it was duet. That’s actually why I ended up choosing it initially and couldn’t stop listening.

Well…

So…some of this is just pain cheesy and immature. There is some suspense and some well done spicy scenes as well. There is also a major **TW** here for sexual abuse. The narrators did a good job. But the dialog was just not ask that believable many times. If the writer was going for a lite mafia rom com with some suspense then mission accomplished. That said, I’m not sure I’ll go on to other books in the series.

Absolutely loved!

Absolutely loved this audio! I felt like I waited forever for this audio to get released and it did not disappoint!

Spicy af

I love an unhinged man!! He knew what he wanted and he took her.

Hidden cameras
Workplace
Billionaire
Marriage of convenience

Outstanding

The book and audiobook are absolutely outstanding the twists and turns the plots and character development are incredible and really bring the book to life!

I love an obsessed man.

Sure, i also didn’t like that the first time we met the MMC he’s (trying) to receive a happy ending but in his defense at that time he and the FMC are not together and his obsession (FMC) helps him along when she walks in. She didnt hold it against him cause its not cheating. And she was kinda into it. 😅😅

Anyways i definitely do not gwt the hate but thats just me.

Even though Misty kinda irked me with her stubbornness at times, but the MMC loved her challenges and it overall worked for this story. I loved how obsessed/possesive/protective Damon was. Will definitely be reading the next book!
Narrators were great!

~ SO DAMN DISAPPOINTING ~

I love underworld Secret Societies and the red flag Billionaire alphas who rule from their privileged royal thrones.. but sadly this listen was disappointing as obsessed Damon falls instantly and hopelessly in love with damaged pastel haired Misty. I also love a good fake marriage of convenience however, I didn’t think the older voice of Jack Calihan fit the hero at all or matched the age of the heroine in their duet-style narration.. and I personally would avoid another romance narrated by JC. I also thought some of it was immature, over the top, lacked detail and jumped in parts. There were some tense suspenseful scenes - however I just couldn’t connect with the characters because of the mismatched narration. It could be a ‘me’ thing rather than a we thing so check out another one of his narrated books to judge for yourselves.

Worth a credit? I x1.5 the speed and did listen until the end.. but sadly, despite the dark and sometimes dirty, it’s unfortunately a no. Triggers: a previous rape scene half described - violence - torture - kidnapping - bloodshed.

Worst Story and Narrating Ever

First time reading this authors work. The book was downloaded by mistake and Audible refused a return and replacement. Called them within 10 minutes of realizing the mistake. The female narrator sounds like a fourth grader. There’s no passion no emphasis just dull reading. This book was a complete rip-off. The male narrator was excellent.
