Flirting with the Beast

De: Jane Porter

Narrado por: Meg Sylvan

A woman expecting to spend the holidays alone finds warmth in the iciest man she knows in this steamy and charming later-in-life romance by New York Times bestselling author Jane Porter.

It’s been five years since Andi McDermott lost her husband, and she's finally starting to feel like herself again, ready to live fully—she’s even started dating again. But when her holiday plans with her stepson and his fiancée fall through, she refuses to spend another Christmas alone while everyone is celebrating with their families. Impulsively, she decides to go up to her cabin in Lake Arrowhead, a place she used to love to visit but hadn’t gone to in years, not since the feud started between her husband and their nearest neighbor.

Andi starts to rethink her decision when being alone at the cabin proves to be more challenging than she expected—a heavy snowstorm hits the area, and Andi finds herself trapped there with no one to help except for her neighbor, Wolf Enders. A military vet who lives full-time on Lake Arrowhead, Wolf is as grumpy and intimidating as Andi remembers. But he’s also unexpectedly kind and uncomfortably sexy—his presence reminds Andi that she may be older, but her body still works perfectly fine, thank you very much. But can this good girl tame this sexy beast of a man, and will this snowy fling turn into a love of a lifetime?

it was a lot different than most of the love stories.

I think it would have been better with a male and a female reader. I still enjoyed the very much though.

storyline was for 50's 60s age group, which people have left out for a very long time. It's so nice to hear this.

I absolutely prefer a man's voice. When a man is speaking and a woman's voice when a woman is speaking in a audiobook. It shows a much better quality of book

Great read!

There should have been a man for the male voices. But the story was good.

Beautiful story

Loved, loved, loved the story! Believable characters with a storyline that was heartfelt and funny!! I truly enjoyed listening to this book and would recommend it to anyone!

Talented narrator and interesting story

This story is adorable and sort of a comfort read without too much drama, but just enough happening to keep you interested. Andi is a far superior character than Paige in book 1, while still struggling with some anxieties or insecurities. Andi was a bit naive and it was clear her deceased husband was far from a good partner, yet she kept him on a pedestal. This allowed for her character to grow and learn from her past mistakes as she navigated a new relationship with a very difficult man. The narrator Meg Sylvan is sooo good - if you like her here, try Midnight Duet as she knocks it out of the park on that book. I'm really looking forward to the third book in this series.

Over 50 for the win!

First time for this author and narrator. Both are great. The characters are likable and real. The story got a bit boring when the unnecessary details of a grand kid were introduced, it felt like page filler. Otherwise it was a good story that kept my interest.

Awesome!!

Learning to forgive and learning to love people for who they are, not to totally mean your own expectations.

Absolutely Beautiful!

I found this book at the perfect time in my life. At 56 & waiting on God to bless me with love again, the author bolstered my hope that love, real unapologetic love can still happen. Thank you, Jane Porter for writing an amazing story. Thank you, Meg Sylvan, for superb narration. My ONLY issue with this book is Lindsey. I realize that she's going through so much. I completely understand how overwhelming grief & loss can be, but Lindsey, after a few chapters, grated on my nerves. Whiney, helpless, lazy & never wanting a solution or to do anything for herself. " It's everyone else's fault. She's exhausting & irritating.
Nonetheless, I know that I will listen to this one again and again.

Sweet and Heartwarming

This was nice somewhat clean romance. I personally, would have loved a little more heat instead of sparks 😆. Like the Characters. MMC was a total alpha and MFC was totally the opposite. I also like that it was a Story Love after 50+.

Finally an amazing love story for people over 50!

This book spoke to me in so many ways: about loss, friendship, starting over, love and desire that we all can still feel after 50! I’m tired of people thinking life ends after 50! The characters had depth and attitude! It was a wonderful book. I only wish they would have had a male narrator for Wolf, but it was still a great listen!
