Resumen del Editor

Tessa Caldwell’s carefully structured world is thrown into chaos when the handsome stranger she had an uncharacteristic fling with reappears in her life. Ben not only gets the promotion she thought was hers but is also intent on resuming their physical relationship. Although Tessa’s rational mind insists on a professional association, both her heart and her traitorous body have other ideas. Can her sensible nature possibly win against such temptation?

Memories of the petite blonde with large, blue eyes have haunted Ben Dunham for months. When he transfers to her branch, he anticipates picking up where they left off. Reality doesn’t match memory when the cool and collected lady wants no part of him. If he intends to pursue Tessa, he has to earn her trust. The problem is, Ben carries a dark and dangerous secret. How does he get Tessa to trust him when he can’t trust himself?

Take a chance and dare to listen to this one

First one I listened from this author . This story had a love story. Made me laugh . There were funny parts and some unexpected intrigue. The cover has a dog called Milo that plays an important part between the 2 characters.

Hero is Ben and Heroine is Tessa.
What happens when you meet someone on a cruise and have a fling with them. It’s great when it lasts and you don’t expect to see them again. They both get a schook when they run into each other at work. Who caves and and makes the first move again

Lill was great as a narrator she nailed it. Has a smooth voice

Overcoming Fears

I like an All or Nothing book where the characters must determine what is truly important to them. Joyce M Holmes wrote the story beautifully of Tessa and Ben (plus lovable pet Milo). Lili Dubuque was an excellent choice for this performance. She added to the book with her easy tempo and smooth voice. I requested this review copy audiobook and willing wrote this review. The story is long, and does have some unexpected twists, some endearing characters and some you want to strangle. The phrase Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer came to mind. I thought the author wrote very realistic characters and had the right amount of tension and competition in the book. Well done.

Sweet second chance romance

Ben and Tessa had a one night stand and months later, Ben is hired to be Tessa’s partner. At first, there was an antagonistic attitude but they found their groove at work but can they do the same for love? Ben’s past hinders the development of their relationship and his push and pull gets a little repetitive but the story generally moved quickly.

I really liked the two characters and their interactions. I love how Milo the dog was portrayed too (so cute!). The author introduced some really mean coworkers, which rounded out the story to give it some more emotional pull.

Lili Dubuque was great at playing multiple characters and I thought she had wonderful pacing. She did a great job infusing emotion appropriately.

A cute, light read

I enjoyed this book. At first, I was a bit wary I wouldn't grow to like the main characters at all. He seemed pompous and obnoxious, She just seemed sort of off kilter and unable to cope with life in general. But they grew on me.

The narrator did a good job. I was able to just listen to the story and let me imagination take over. Mad props for including a tiny dog, which made the book even better!

It was a cute and enjoyable story to listen to. Two amazing people marked by their past have the oportunity to turn their fling into something else, but in orther to do that they'll have to battle with their internal fears first. Low self-steem, commitment issues... It won't be an easy ride...
Will they be able to get past all of this? It seems it would be just too much, no matter how strongly they feel about each other...

Amusing

I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. This book was extremely amusing to me. two people meet and hook up on a cruise that they have both won for being the best marketing experts in their company. Then six months later they are thrown into a situation where they must work together. The sparks, both negative and positive fly from there. It is interesting how they dance around each other and try to do their jobs at the same time. The company manager who brought them together is another factor in this strange equation. This was a good light-hearted listen that made a rainy day go well.

An overall, enjoyable listen.

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review. However, I would not have felt it a sacrifice to have spent a credit on this book as I found it a very enjoyable listen. I enjoyed how the characters interacted and how the annoying ones received their comeuppance in a timely fashion. I like audio books that are entertaining and have happy endings and this one fit the bill. Plus, the addition of a dog in the story line is always welcomed by me.
