Resumen del Editor

He's my brother’s best friend

Also my new boss

And now my fake fiancé....

Cade "the King" Kingston, billionaire grumphole and the most sought-after athlete on the continent.

He’s also London’s most notorious bachelor with a ten-pack and a profile that would make Adonis weep.

Too bad he’s ruthless, has a heart made of ice, and is the most unfeeling brute I have ever met.

When my brother asks him to look out for me while he’s away, Cade engages me as his new Communications Manager.

Now he’s my boss, I definitely don’t want to get involved with him.
But I’ve harbored a secret crush on Cade, and when we start working together in close proximity, my feelings for him multiply.

When a stalker targets me, Cade proposes a fake marriage for my protection.

But he has secrets of his own....

This is a swoony, angsty, banter-filled romance featuring a curvy woman in over her head, a grumpy man in over his heart, and a Champagne loving Great Dane who plays matchmaker by mistake. It stands alone and comes complete with the best grovel and grand romantic gesture ever!

Fabulous!

This story was great! I loved the characters and the drama involved . I mean to fall for your best friends sister is a struggle but Cade definitely takes the cake when pulls this agreement between himself and Abby . I loved watching them fall in love with one another. The steam was hawt. The narration was definitely awesome they both did a phenomenal job . My ears appreciate them oh so much. Everything about this audiobook was fabulous.

Cade and Abby

This was the 4th book of L. Steel i have read/listened to. i enjoyed this one most of all so far story wise. It had the usual steam expected in her stories between her main characters but I think it went much more in to the story aspect some of the other books didn't have which, was nice. Also while this is a standalone book they are part of a series (it seem at least the 2 different series I have read books that are parts of they are all interconnected) that can be enjoyed a bit more if you read in order so that you know all the characters and get all the extra references..

Cade and Abby had great chemistry. They knew each other since they were teenagers and had a rocky history to get over before they could deal with their feelings for each other. Once they were able to get out of their own ways things started working a bit better for them. But of course nothing is ever that cut and dry in one of these books but its worth the journey to read or listen to in this case to give it a chance.

Loved the job the narrators did on this. Kas Vadim did an amazing job as did Roxy Isles.

I was given an ALC to listen to and I am leaving this voluntarily

Fantastic!

The Agreement is the third book in a series and it is one hell of a ride! I fell fast for Cade and Abby and their intense relationship from the very beginning! This book blindsided me a little and took me by surprise, but it wasn’t a bad thing… it was just intense. I love this author's style of writing, it sucks me from the very beginning and keeps me hooked all the way through to the end and this book was no different!

This second-chance romance is a must-read, you need this book!!


5 STARS

Cade and Abby

This is a solid 4-star story. Cade and Abby were not my favorite of the Morally Grey Billionaires couples (I highly recommend The Christmas One Night Stand over this one).

Re the narration. The female narrator was a good fit for Abby and was able to perform the male role well. The male narrator, however, was not as successful in his performance. He voices Cade well, but his Abby is whiny and vapid. I stuck with it as long as I could, but it got to the point where I switched to the ebook version to complete my read through.

Good story

Not my favorite but still a good read. Love the entire series and characters.

Loved Cade and Anna

I understood why Cade was angry and why Anna felt she deserved what she got. I also understood how hard it was to fight the feelings they both had. I thought it was great seeing the turnaround in this book and watching both characters grow. Kas Vadim and Roxy Isles did an excellent job performing. I will be listening to the rest of the stories as soon as I can. Loving this author.

Alphahole overload!!!

The Agreement my L.Steele is just another level of awesome! As I’ve previously said these alphaholes know how to grovel quiets like them. Probably because no one can $$ck up as epically as they can either lol. I mean when you bury your feelings your whole life it has to be hard to open up to anyone, especially themselves! So before they can have their happily ever after they have to epically screw up their love life, then they have to bare their soul before they can win back what they never even knew they were missing but now can’t live without.
In this particular senecio Abby messed up first, she was in high school and was bamboozled into something she didn’t completely understand the consequences of her actions or how catastrophically it would ruin Cade and he now has a score to settle. The worst thing is…it’s his best friends little sister! At 14 she tore his heart/life/soul in two. Destroyed everything he had worked so hard for and he was disowned by his family. The next worse thing is his feelings for the innocent looking little €€ut with the body of a goddess and legs like no others he’s ever seen.
Abby has been in love with the Alphahole who disappeared in high school because of the prank she helped lure him into. But she knows he will never forgive her for the huge part she played in destroying him. But she also realizes rather quickly that he likes to play with his prey before he strikes.
The deep gravely voice of Cade will make you pant and wish he was talking directly to you.

Cade and Abby

L Steele loves to write about alpaholes and fake engagements. You can't go into these books thinking you will like the male characters right away. You won't, it's written that way so the struggle , the relationship, and then usually the man groveling in the end will be worth it. In this case we have Abby and Cade. Abby did something to betray Cade when they were teenagers. You won't actually find out in the book right away. Cade also happens to be best friends with Abby's brother. Now, they are adults living in London. Cade is a famous cricket player, eligible bachelor, and has a terrible public image. Abby actually works for Cade's sister in PR. Cade has vowed to get revenge on Abby for what she did to him. I did think that was stupid because they were so young and also because really his life isn't bad except for what his own actions caused. Cade did something to Abby then left without a word for 8 months! Abby is literally a doormat and needs to grow a backbone to stand up to Cade. I know Abby has always had feelings for Cade but after 8 months, I wouldn't have forgiven him. When Cade comes back he hires Abby to be his communications manager. When Cade finds out Abby has a stalker he demands a fake engagement can fix all their problems. Cade also breaks Abby's heart a few times along the way. When Cade is finally ready to admit how he really feels for Abby, it might be too little, too late. Cade was basically a jerk for most of the book and Abby let him. It all eventually works out in the end.

OMG LOVED THIS BOOK!

This is my second favorite from this series. This story follows Cade and Abby.

Abby is the little sister Cade’s best friend and the one person that betrayed him the most. Now he is older and out for revenge and will do everything to destroy her - until someone else touchers her.

Workplace Romance
Revenge
Best Friends Sister
Marriage of Convenience

Hugely romantic!!!

The Agreement, an Audiobook by L. Steele is the turbulent story of Cade and Abby. Wow!! There’s sooooo much story packed into this read!! I LOVED it1!! These two are at odds with each other throughout the book. Abby has done things he can’t forgive or forget. He has his own plans now that she’s back…and he is tasked with protecting her.

Their constant banter, and back-and-forth jibes were so much fun to read! Whew…they both have some sharp tongues! Both of them are harboring their secrets, their regrets, and their deep, deep feelings. Meanwhile, danger is lurking everywhere!! So much behind the scenes issues, so many twists and turns! This was an excellent read!!!

This Audiobook was excellently narrated by Kas Vadim and Roxy Isles. This story, on its own reads like a dream!!! But, with these two performances, its even better!!! They capture the angst, anger, resentment, endearment, and romance beautifully!!!

I am volunteering to leave a review for an Advance Listener Copy of this Audiobook.
