Power of Persuasion

De: Stacey Abrams, Selena Montgomery

Narrado por: January LaVoy

Sometimes the power of love . . .

A.J. Grayson has come a long way from adopted orphan to fast-rising executive at a cutting-edge technology firm. Now an anti-terrorist agency wants to use the revolutionary artificial intelligence system she developed to thwart a plot against Jafir's monarchy—and handsome, dynamic Damon Toca, the region's newly crowned king.

. . . can be the most seductive weapon of all.

In six short months, Damon has gone from gallery owner to controversial politician. When his cabinet hires A.J. Grayson—without his consent—he gets ready for a battle. Expecting a computer geek, and skeptical of A.J.'s highly touted secret invention, he is stunned to find a strong-minded beauty who arouses much more than his suspicions. But someone in his inner circle is in league with a treacherous adversary who threatens his throne, his nation's tenuous peace . . . and his future with a woman he'll risk everything to have and to hold.

The Best Love Story

Selena Montgomery is a master story teller! Her character development, story lines and incredible love stories keep you guessing and wondering if the love will last. I love the combination of action/spy novel and romance. She captures the African American culture and complexity and spins a tale of suspense that rivals all others. I cannot wait until the next chapter in the saga. I am ready for the new adventure.

AJ character

The story was not what I expected. Although it had hints of mystery, it was an ok love story. I enjoyed the reading and the descriptions.

A good read

AJ is an AI scientist. Damon is an art gallery owner turned King. They met at a wedding and had a moment but he left before anything could happen between them.
Then her cousin pulls her into a spy mission to help save Damon's new kingdom. When they encounter each other again, the sparks are still there.
These two have a constant tug of war. He doesn't want to pull her into his chaos. Then there is a trust issue. It takes them a minute to get it together. All the way to the very end.
I'm not a fan of AI so that part of the story was a miss for me. The suspense made up for it. I wanted to shake Damon because it seemed like he would not get his act together when it came to AJ's heart. All in all it was a good story.

the Sweetest Seconds

A hybrid main character from her newest series and the last book of Selena Montgomery, AJ, is a captivating force for fans of Stacy Abrams.
A stand alone read, while a rounder comprehension contributes, should you start with The Power of Seduction.

Love Stacy. But this not as great as past novels

I love Stacy’s work. This was a bit repetitive and not as deep in character development as prior novels.
