Ruthless Rival

Cruel Castaways

De: L.J. Shen

Narrado por: Stella Bloom, Joe Arden

From Wall Street Journal bestselling author L.J. Shen comes an enemies-to-lovers romance about the fine line between seeking revenge and finding love.

When she was young, Arya Roth became best friends with her housekeeper’s son. Soon, friendship turned to young love, and when Arya dared him to kiss her, a chain reaction of disastrous events led to the boy being sent away and out of Arya’s life.

Now, two decades later, Arya is an on-the-rise publicist with her beloved father as one of her biggest clients. So when her father is sued by a former employee, Arya sets out to prove that her father is not the monster he is accused of being. The only problem is the attorney who is determined to destroy her father’s good name. Christian Miller is charming, ambitious, and devilishly good looking, and Arya has no idea he is that same boy who kissed her all those years ago.

Past and present collide as Arya falls hard for Christian. But when she finds out who he really is and about his obsession with getting revenge on her father, can she choose love over family?

Loved This Story

I wasn't 100% sure I would love this story & honestly I only bought it because Book 2 was AWESOME!! As it turns out - I LOVE this Book & can NOT wait for Book 3!! My heart actually hurt for Arya & I was angry with Christian AT FIRST, by the end of the Book I was rooting for these 2 to have they're HEA. Joe & Stella did a stellar job Narrating this Book!

Great story

I absolutely loved this book! Beautiful love story. It was believable, beautiful love and not raunchy w the sex

THE SLOW BURN IS SLOW BURNING!!!!!

A sucker for slow burns and this one hit all the right buttons! It was cute, steamy, funny, and heartbreaking at times but I absolutely loved it!

It was an Ok read

It was an ok read yet for some reason I got quite annoyed as I listened. I guess I expected more action but for life of me I couldn't tell you what that action is, but something was missing. I wish I could put my finger on it.

Poor Boy Rich Girl Love Story centered on atonement

L.J. Shen did it again! I am a sucker for her stories and listened to this one as soon as it was released. Beautifully narrated by Joe and Stella , this story goes back to a poor boy starting a friendship with a rich girl and they both find solace, happiness in their friendship which was then brutally stopped by her father. The combativeness between both of them was electrifying and I love how Arya, as much as she loves her father, is no push over and stood her grounds. This story is addictive and I wonder if there will be spin off for Christian’s to buddies and Jillian as well…Overall, worth the credit and listen
