Resumen del Editor

Skylar Lawrence is the quiet sister. The one that doesn’t need to be the center of attention. The one who wants happiness above all else. She’s been content to stay in the background and support her sisters as their stars shine bright.

She internalizes her struggles. The lingering pain of losing her father, followed by the ending of her relationship with the man she thought was her forever.

For the first time in a year, she meets a man that intrigues her. A sexy stranger that seems as affected by her as she is by him. She gives in to her desires, only to find out moments later that he’s about to become her professional enemy.

They battle for the most coveted project in the industry. Their passion on the battlefield threatens to bleed from the boardroom to the bedroom. Constantly teetering on that fine edge until it becomes too much for both of them.

Has she finally met the perfect man? The man who both showers her with adoration and supports her eccentric fantasies. Perhaps she’ll get her HEA, just like her sisters. That’s until the past comes back to threaten their future.

Conflicting Ventures is the first book in the Belles of Broad Street.
I was so excited to read this book after reading the entire City of Sisterly Love series by AK Landow. When I heard that Heather Firth and Jeremy York were the two narrating this book, I knew I had to listen to it! Of course, they didn't disappoint!
Skylar and Lance's story is so beautifully written. I love seeing past characters appearing in other series. I can honestly say that I feel like a part of this huge family as I'm reading these books.
Lance is top-notch book boyfriend material. He's the perfect gentleman that any woman would want to call hers.
I'm itching to see what comes next in Indecent Ventures, book two of the Belles of Broad Street Series!

Written in the stars!

OMG, Yes! The narration is perfection! It totally roped me in and kept me enraptured in Lance and Skylar's story. Lance and Skylar come from totally different backgrounds but have so much in common. A country boy and a city girl that truly find love through their mutual love of astrology and kinks. This book has it all, extremely steamy scenes, emotional depth, a little angst and amazing family and friends. A definite emotional roller-coaster that had me crying one minute and laughing so hard the next. I love all the banter, puns and possessive men. This is the steamiest book I have read all year and AK Landow is now on my one click list. Beyond 5 magnificent stars!

I was sent a free audiobook from HCB and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

What a fun Story!

What a fun story! I enjoyed meeting Skylar and Lance. Star crossed lovers! They both are so darn cute! I enjoy their meet cute and everything after. Seeing her family and how they (especially the men) embrace Lance made me laugh and I feel my face would be red at family functions. Ha Ha! I am used to family being involved in life but not that much. His family was interesting as well but for a different reason.

Throughly enjoyed this one. I did listen to it on audio. Jeremy York and Heather Firth did a wonderful job on narration.

LOVE!

I couldn't stop listening to this book! It was amazing to hear it come to life, especially Chapter 7 (iykyk hahaha), after having read it multiple time. Jeremy York and Heather Firth did an amazing job with the narration.

What a rollercoaster!

I ADORE this book! The audio was perfection! AK Landow is the Queen of raunchcom and she does NOT disappoint. I hope she does more audio books.

Loved!!

Jason made me so mad how he broke Skylar’s b
Heart. I could feel all the pain she went through. AK Landow really gave me all the feels in this book!
——-

Lance had me grinning and blushing through the book with how sweet he was with Sky.

I love Lance and skys relationship
So much …

Then all the sudden a twist! I wasn’t expecting. Now what do we do??? I’m so heartbroken…I haven’t been able to stop listening to this audio all day!!

Sky has been through so much and is afraid to say I love you to Lance because of her hurt. My heart is aching for them!

“Follow your heart…”
“It’s ok to do what you want…”
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Omg. Another thing I loved is how Lance and Sky talked about their fantasy’s and trusted each other with those intimate desires. To have a partner that will give in to your needs and desires that they share!

“You. Are. Mine. “ best line!

I’ve cried. I’ve hurt. I’ve loved. I’ve laughed. I’ve swooned. This book had all the feels!

Have I said I cried???? This book had the most beautiful ending! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hottest meet-cute, workplace romance, & perfectly cast!

What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 This is my first book by this author, and I’m a fan!
🤩 The narrators are perfectly cast for the MCs personalities—great audiobook entertainment.
🤩 Probably the hottest meet cute hookup I’ve ever read! 🌶️
🤩 Workplace romance—competing for the same contract. And, “I think it’s best if we keep it professional.” 💁🏼‍♀️
🤩 Forced proximity.
🤩 Interesting and captivating back stories.
🤩 Very entertaining sister and friend group interactions, especially when the male friend group shares lessons on pleasing a woman.
🤩 Jealousy works of me.
🤩 Smokin’ hot eyebrow raising moments—oh wow, these two have chemistry and make fireworks. 🥵
Be ready for some role-playing kink and soft dom. 😮‍💨
🤩 Oh my gosh to Skylar’s kinks and how sweetly and amazingly Lance embraces them.
🤩 Such a unique plot point of drama and, oh my heart, the deep feelings of love and longing.
🤩 I appreciate how they both communicate and ask for space, time, and respect.
🤩 The beautiful theme of stargazing.

What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 I felt a little out of the loop at the beginning, a bit overwhelmed by all the characters and not knowing any of them at all.

Definition of Perfect! I love Skylar and Lance

You know the book was good when you have to go and download it as soon as the audio comes out. Skylar and Lance's story is still one of my favorite stories from AK Landow. It's sweet yet spicy, and it will melt your heart while making you laugh out loud.

This was one of my first-ever audiobooks, and it did not disappoint. The narration was on point, conveying the vibe I know the author intended. Those extra underwear I mention below- you're going to need them for chapter 7.

Get ready to fall in love with a country boy, and never look at a grapefruit the same way again. Pour yourself a glass of wine and maybe grab some extra underwear for the laughs and the spice. Skylar and Lance's story is perfection. They both feel an instant connection, but circumstances keep them from taking action. This story has a little bit of everything: instant chemistry, work adversaries, a little unrequited love, emotional scars, and maybe even some last-to-know love.

Fantastic writing

As with all AK Landow’s books, this one was brilliant! Her trademark wit shines through in every word. There were so many times I was laughing out loud.
The narration was perfect. I could picture Skylar and Lance the entire time. Loved it and can’t wait for more audiobooks from AK

Flirty, steamy and heartfelt work place romance

This was my first A.K. Landow book and I can’t wait to go back and read more of her work. “Conflicting Ventures” is flirty, steamy and heartfelt workplace friends to lovers romance that pulled on my heart.

Skylar Lawerence is the quiet sister among her three sisters and is content with that. She likes to think about something before she does it. And when she hooks up with a stranger with dimples in the bathroom, that even shocks her. And it shocks her even more when she sees him again and they’re competing against each other for the same account. Lance is new in town and this is his first big break. He’s from a religious small town but is ready to make it in the business world in the big city. And Lance is also ready to prove to Skylar what they have is the real and forever deal.

The first meet between Lance and Skylar was sizzling hot and set up the book so well. And they both had fun and then moved on in respectful ways without any hard feelings, but they kept thinking about each other. I loved that they were both competing for the same job and that job brought them back together. Skylar was an instant like for me and I related to her so much. She’s incredibly close with her sisters and mom but that bond she shared with her dad was so special. Lance is such a good guy and his genuine personality just made the book even more special. I loved how he wasn’t afraid to tell Skylar what she meant to him and voice his feelings. I loved their flirting and banter until they finally gave into the attraction again. Those steamy scenes were so good and had me fanning myself more than once. They weren’t afraid to explore all aspects of what they wanted in the bedroom. The last few chapters were incredibly sweet and wrapped up their story perfectly. The epilogue had me cracking up and was so great for Skylar and her sisters.

Heather Firth and Jeremy York narrated this audiobook and I loved listening to them so much. Heather brought all of Skylar’s kind heart and independence out wonderfully. I loved Jeremy as Lance. Jeremy brought the genuine personality that Lance had to life perfectly and I enjoyed his narration so much.
