Cruel Castaways

De: L.J. Shen

Narrado por: Joe Arden, Savannah Peachwood

From USA Today bestselling author L.J. Shen comes a breathtaking installment in the Cruel Castaways series about finding love in the wake of tragedy and betrayal.

Arsène Corbin does not intend to marry for love. His fiancée has always been a means to an end, a woman he wants to conquer. But when she dies suddenly in an accident, Arsène’s grand plan unravels.

Still reeling from his fiancée’s death, he meets Winnifred Ashcroft, a struggling actress who lands a coveted role in a play at his theater…and knows things about his late fiancée no one else does. The only problem? They can’t stand each other.

Backstage at Arsène’s theater, Winnie begins to let down her guard around the tempestuous billionaire. She appreciates his wit and quirky affection for astronomy. And Arsène, jaded as he is, respects Winnie’s headstrong personality.

Tragedy and betrayal bring them together, but will their painful pasts hold them back—or fuel their desire?

LJ Shen in the Best Way

I felt so many emotions or the H and h. I cringed laughed hoped cried and so many feels. Loved this book!

Great

Loved, great story and the performance was wonderful. LJ Shen is a great writer. Love her

An unusual love story

I liked this book. It had twists that made it stand out and it was very entertaining. I loved the characters.

Really Enjoyed This!

I really enjoyed this L.J. Shen title, it reminded me of that 1999 movie "Random Hearts" with Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas. This couple also fell in love after their spouse's died together in a plane crash when they had been getting away to cheat. In true Shen fashion the character and world building was phenomenal and there were some awesome laugh-out-loud moments! Joe Arden and Savannah Peachwood performed wonderfully as well. I listened to this title in the "Cruel Castaways" series first, but it is good that you don't necessarily need too read/listen to them in order.

4 Starz - worthy of a repeat listen

Great story line

I really liked the story line quite unusual and mixed with some mystery.
Overall great chemistry, would have loved more “ meat” to the live scenes.
Overall 5 stars
