Restore Me

New Haven, Book 1

De: J.L. Seegars

Narrado por: Bianca Drew, Winston James

Sloane: Dominic Alexander is my late husband's best friend and the last man that I should want. For the last ten years, he's taken a sick pleasure in making me feel paper thin, like my existence is of no consequence to him at all.

But now, things are different.

After a drunken night, and a surprisingly sexy act of heroism, he's started to be . . . nice. Treating me like something other than the embodiment of his annoyance, which would be nice if it didn't make me feel things I swore to never feel for another man after my husband died.

Dominic: Sloane Kent is going to be my undoing.

What's worse: I think I'm going to enjoy being unraveled by the gold flecks in her hazel eyes and the way she scrunches her nose when we're arguing, which we've done a lot of over the past decade. She thinks it's because I hate her, and I've let her think that because the alternative is . . . untenable.

But something is changing between us, and I don't know how to stop myself from breaking every promise I've ever made to myself regarding my best friend's wife. Promises that include never telling her that there's a long list of things I feel about her, but hate isn't one of them.

Contains mature themes.

SENSATIONAL!!!!

Let me just say, that I was NOT ready for what this book was going to give. I read a brief description about a man falling for his best friends widow and was unsure if I would truly like it. Fortunately, I had heard so many good things that I decided to give it a shot AND BABY.....IM SO GLAD I DID! One thing that makes a good romance, in my opinion, is angst! I want to be taken on a journey of longing, sexual tension, desire. Ms. Seegars definitely did that and was an amazing captain along the way!

Ok, So to briefly describe this enemies to lovers romance, Sloan ends up taking a job with her deceased husbands best friend. The same best friend who she has always assumed hated her. Dominic has definitely had his sparring matches with Sloan but little does she know he has always had a soft spot for her and after an incident where he comes to her aide, he decides to let it be known just how deep his feelings for her go. His revelation jars Sloan but she eventually succumbs to his advances.

I was completely enthralled in this story from beginning to end. I loved the relationship between Sloan and Dominic! It started out kinda rocky but by the end, you were completely routing for them. AND THE SPICE.....10/10!!!!!! J.L really got me out her looking for my real life Dominic Alexander!

If you need a super cute, romantic and spicy read....this is the one. I highly recommend!!

Great story

Awful female narrator. James Winston was fabulous as usual but so much of the book was read by her I nearly stopped listening about 6 times. Since she is the female narrator for the reminder of the series I will not listen anymore which is disappointing because I really like the Mallory character.

True Love is real

I love the dynamic of Sloan relationship with her in laws. Although her mom is mean she has a great mother in law who loves and understands her dearly. Dom is such a sweet guy, I love how he suprised her with a home and a forever

Good listen.

Dominic is desirable and Sloane was very very annoying but I’m happy love won the battle

Great story line

The story is beautiful. I didn’t not care for the female narrator. I wish her voice had more depth and emotions.

Winston James, giving my my other narrator baes a run for their money 🥴

I loved all of this

The miscommunication was just enough to keep me from dnf'n at 90% (idc, Ill drop you at anytime)

JL Is a new to me author ( I own this whole collection) and this is one blind read and buy I'm currently not mad at.

Looking forward to Mals story.

This was soooooo good!

Such a great storyline. I enjoyed seeing the development of and growth of Sloane character and Winston was fantastic as the narrator of Domonick'sks character.

This felt SO real!!

I really love it when I read a book that has a real life feel to it...if that makes sense. I can totally see every part of this storyline playing out in real life. The narrators did an amazing job bringing this awesome work to life. I'm ready for more and I'm happy that book two is already available.

Why did it end?

This book started out slow but, when it finally built up, I could listen to their story forever. It was so good. I can’t wait to listen to Mallory’s next!

the story

I like the story line but the girl was getting on my nerves, also I really don't care to much for the women narrator. Feel like it could have been read by someone else
