One Hot Deal

Hot Brits, Book 8

De: Anna Durand

Narrado por: Jason Clarke, Marian Hussey

When a British billionaire and her American bodyguard make a baby pact, it's one hot deal.

Why is an American guy living in London? My sister got engaged to a Brit, so I ditched New York and moved here too. I never expected to meet a hot older woman who kicks my lust into overdrive. Diana Sangster is a powerful business tycoon who always gets what she wants. Now that I've signed on to serve as her bodyguard, I'll spend 24 hours a day with the sexiest woman I've ever met.

But that annoying other shoe just smacked down on my head.

Diana wants me to be her "donor." No, she's not asking for my kidney or my life savings. She wants to have a baby—by screwing me repeatedly until we hit the jackpot. To protect her public image and her privacy, she insists I keep our arrangement a secret. Once that stick turns pink, we go back to strictly business, and I get a sweet promotion.

I must be crazy. Why else would I accept her deal? Well, I've always loved trouble.

One Hot Deal is the eighth book in the best-selling Hot Brits series of romantic comedies.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

One day, you figure out just what you need in life. This is what Diana has done. As a high powered business woman, she has realized there is more to life, and a baby is exactly what she needs. But she is not married, and the best candidate is her bodyguard Derek. Derek has had fantasies about Diana, but he knows to keep business and pleasure separate. Asking him to provide the goods until she gets pregnant is both an easy and not so easy decision. As their feelings get in the way though, will their business arrangement turn to more? I love Anna Durand's Hot Scots series. We first met these two in book 7, and I am so glad they got their own story. Derek is such a swoony hero. He i serious when it comes to his job, but he is now understanding the need to follow his heart. I love watching Diana as her priorities change. Their banter is priceless. Add in the meddling from Derek's sister and Pippa, and we get those laugh out loud moments! This is the perfect weekend listen!

Jason Clarke and Marian Hussey are so talented, and together, they bring this couple alive. Clarke is suave and committed as Derek and he knows who to win over Diana. Hussey brings in her air of class as Diana, with hesitancy and passion. This team created a sensual, humorous listen that made my day.

Deliciously excellent escape!

One Hot Deal is a deliciously excellent escape from reality. I had to go back and check, but we met Diana and Derek in Book 7, One Hot Scandal (Hugh and Avery’s book). I really enjoy the common characters throughout the series with those Dixon Brothers. When a bodyguard and his charge have instant chemistry they both try to deny we have the perfect setting for this naughty workplace, bodyguard, baby-pact romance that is all kinds of steamy fun! The cat and mouse brings the fun for this fast-paced insta-love story guaranteed to entertain and romance us all through the series of intriguing characters and fun shenanigans we know we can count on from Anna Durand!

I’m so glad Anna champions romance audio and chooses excellent narrators to bring her stories to life. Jason Clarke is an absolute favorite who delivers all the goods in this book, moving flawlessly between characters and pulling us into his swoony performance. Marian Hussey did a wonderful job as the sophisticated, complicated, sexy, powerful Diana. Altogether, another excellent audiobook from Anna that I thoroughly enjoyed!

Sweet and spicy bodyguard romance!

One Hot Deal by Anna Durand was a sweet and spicy bodyguard romance with an added baby pact twist that captivated my heart from start to finish. Diana and Derek had this fun, flirty, and fiery hot opposites-attract chemistry that had me laughing and swooning! I loved the journey these two took as they gave in to the temptation to go after what they both truly desired. Each couple in Anna’s Hot Brit Series keeps getting better and better.

Marian Hussey and Jason Clarke narrate this audiobook, and were such a great pairing for Diana and Derek! Marian showcased Diana’s bossy, stubborn, and determined demeanor perfectly. However, she also brought light to Diana’s vulnerabilities and desires as she let her walls down and learned to love. Jason shined as the hot broody protective bodyguard. His ability to capture Derek’s strong will and dedication to Diana made my heart melt. (Yes, please!) Both narrators were also fantastic at capturing all the delicious accents.

Overall, I loved this book! If you are a fan of a reverse age-gap romance with a hunky loyal bodyguard, an uptight business mogul ready to start a family, a meddling sibling, hilarious witty banter, spicy baby love-making, a family wedding, catching up with so many of my favorite couples, learning to play cricket, a sweet adorable niece, and a HEA that will seal the deal on your heart, then you will love Derek and Diana’s romance. I always look forward to more from Anna Durand.

One Hot Deal!

One Hot Deal follows the story of Diana,  who is Hugh's (Lord Steamy) business partner and the bodyguard she hired to protect her, who so happens to be Hugh's fiancées brother!
I really enjoyed the fact that Diana was the billionaire rather than Derek. It was a nice chance of pace to see the roles reversed. This was so good and steamy! I also loved getting to see what everyone else was up to from past books and all their meddling.
Marian Hussey and Jason Clarke were fantastic in this story. Both perfectly cast for the roles of Diana and Derek.
