Broken

Manhattan Ruthless, Book 1

De: Sadie Kincaid

Narrado por: Elena Wolfe, Aaron Shedlock

A Standalone Billionaire, Marriage of Convenience Romance.

You want to know the secret to everlasting happiness?

Never fall in love.

That was the wisdom my father imparted to us James boys after our mom died, and it’s a piece of advice that’s served me well.

Until dear old Dad asks me for a favor over Sunday brunch. No big deal, right? I love making my old man happy. Except this “favor” is a lot more complicated than picking up his dry cleaning. Dad wants me to marry and provide a few heirs for the James empire, and he’s even done me the courtesy of handpicking my bride-to-be. Lucky me.

But if I’m being honest, I’ve grown tired of the endless cycle of dating, the constant small talk, and the ever-shrinking pool of women I haven’t already invited for a sleepover.

I’m a lawyer, so contracts are kind of my thing. And that’s all marriage really is—a contract negotiated between two parties. What could possibly go wrong?

Enter Melanie Edison, the five-foot-four brunette with curves in ALL the right places. A veterinary nurse with the smartest mouth I’ve ever heard. And I have more fun not dating her than I did dating any woman before, even with Melanie’s absurd no-sex-before-marriage rule.

But when our business arrangement becomes so much more, I end up breaking my most important rule. And that’s when it all goes to hell.

I have no idea how we can ever repair the damage that’s been done. I’m not even sure I want to. And maybe going back to my old life won’t be so hard.

Except it’s too late. I broke my rule.

And she broke me.

ADDICTING story with an AMAZING narration!!!

Sadie delivered an incredible start to the Manhattan Ruthless series!! Once I hit play on this audiobook, I could not stop and devoured it in a day! It’s a duet narration that just elevated this whole story!!

Nathan and Melanie’s story is quite the ride full of raw emotion, angst and sorrow but is also a beautifully told story of strength and overcoming struggles. Their chemistry is off the charts throughout all of it with playful banter, fiery hot spice and an instant attraction. These two definitely have a hard fought HEA that will make you feel all the things along the way! Check warnings before reading this one! Although Sadie handles the story with such care, there are some sensitive topics.

🎧AUDIO REVIEW:
What an OUTSTANDING audiobook with a DUET narration that gave this story so much life!!! It was an absolutely addicting listen from start to finish as Aaron Shedlock and Elena Wolfe gave a powerful and emotional performance capturing all of the feeling and brokenness of the story. They are the duo I never realized I needed as their voices blended together perfectly creating such an engaging listen! Make sure you aren’t busy when you start this audio as you won’t want to stop!

📖Nathan is a successful lawyer that wants nothing to do with romance and love but his father asks him to marry and produce some heirs for their empire. Melanie is a vetertenity nurse who lost her father when she was young and now her brother is demanding she enters into an arranged marriage to help save their family business. Nathan and Melanie may begin as an arrangement but there are instantly sparks flying. However this is just the start of their story as so much unfolds throughout the rest of the book!!

Loved this book

All I can say is that I’m obsessed with this series, and this is just book 1 in the Manhattan Ruthless Series. Melanie is forced to marry Nathan to help her family. What Melanie nor Nathan expected was that they would fall for one another. There are a lot of emotions in this book, and you will shed some tears. Sadie will break you with this story, and for a brief moment you will wonder if she is going to put you back together. I had the privilege of listening to the audiobook narrated by Elena Wolfe and Aaron Shedlock. These two did a phenomenal job with these characters. Their ability to bring these characters to life, and make you feel what they must have been feeling was perfection. I highly recommend this book.

Loved this story can’t wait for the next book.

This was a fabulous love story. I would reach this again and again and again. Very good read

Engaging story

The narration was great and really brought the story to life. Can’t wait for the next in the series.

Outstanding, Love the so much!

I am so in love with this book! This has to be my favorite of all! The narrators were Fabulous! This will be my go to book to listen to over and over again.

Fabulous story!

I love love loved this story. Great strong characters and I liked how the story kept moving forward. Perfect narrators and steamy scenes. One of the few books I can’t wait to listen to again!

Great story

Been going through a stretch lately of no good books . But listening to this reminded me that there are still some good stories out there. I loved the family bonds how the brothers always show up for each other. Can’t wait for the rest of the series

Wow!

Can’t wait to download the next one. You feel like you are inside the book! Oh and Nate’s voice. Ummm Hhhhmmm

NATHAN FREAKING JAMES

I was dying to hear Nathan’s story since he appeared in the other books in the Sadie universe. Mel and Nathan’s story was so amazing to watch but also heartbreaking. I felt so bad that Nathan was betrayed even tho it wasn’t Mel’s fault entirely. To see the two then go through one of the hardest situations ever and it restarted their relationship was amazing. It’s nice to see that side of it as many times in reality it destroys relationships. The narrators did an amazing job with this story!

Another Hit Sadie!!!

I've read this twice already and, the Audio book has not disappointed. Just finished it and I'm about to start it over again.
