The Art of You

De: Brittney Sahin

Narrado por: Connor Crais, Ava Lucas, Joseph Cannata

A protective hero and his best friend’s fearless sister risk everything as desire and danger collide in this heart-pounding romantic mystery from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Brittney Sahin.

Hudson Ashford, a former Navy SEAL turned private security expert, has sworn off romance—especially when it comes to his best friend’s sister. Between protecting clients, running his bar, and avoiding the political spotlight as the son of a prominent governor, Hudson keeps his life tightly controlled, leaving no room for complications—or emotions.

Isabella Costa, a headstrong billionaire with a compassionate heart, refuses to give up on the future she dreamed of with the man she thought she could never have. But when a dangerous threat from their past resurfaces, chaos erupts. What begins as a routine undercover operation quickly spirals into murder, trapping them in a nightmare from which there’s no escape. Forced into close quarters, Hudson and Isabella must confront not only their shared history but also their undeniable attraction.

As enemies close in and deadly consequences loom, can they outrun the secrets of their past? Or will the truth they uncover tear them apart forever? Duet narration by Connor Crais and Ava Lucas. Special guest cameo by Joseph Cannata.

Incredible story, characters, and narrators!

The Art of You is one of those books that stays with you long after you’ve finished. The incredible, larger-than-life characters with much to overcome, the story that moves swiftly, full of emotion and suspense, and the feelings generated from beginning to end make this Brittney Sahin book unforgettable. Hudson is a hero to die for. He’s protective, broody, and a bit broken. Not to mention he’s Bella’s older brother’s best friend. Bella is fierce, independent, and stubborn, just like her brothers. Once she sets her sights on Hudson nothing will deter her.

As usual, Brittney Sahin shows depth and mastery in her storytelling. The characters are well-developed, and filled with emotion, angst, and deep love. The story is all-consuming with suspense, humor, banter, and jaw-dropping twists and turns you won’t see coming. I love that her characters grow within their stories and through the series. Very few authors I’ve read can touch me as her stories do and stay with me long after I finish reading. The Costas is a perfect series to read over and over again and discover something new each time. Connor Crais is perfect as a Brittney Sahin Hero. He is a master of accents and able to change voice inflections for multiple characters. He could read anything, and I'd listen to it. Ava Lucas is flawless. She is able to capture each heroine and give them a spark that is uniquely theirs. Together Connor and Ava bring Brittney’s characters to life and I couldn’t take out my airpods. Adding in Joseph Cannata as the character of Roman is a stroke of genius. This narration cast is divine!

Fabulous Duet Narration!

Ava Lucas' and Connor Crais' duet narration of Brittney Sahin's The Art of You is absolute perfection! Ava and Connor deliver on every inflection and emotion as they paint the picture of Izzy and Hudson's story with Brittney's words. Add in Joseph Cannata's special guest appearances, and all three knocked the audio absolutely out of the park!

The Art of You is the slow burn, friends to lovers romance we've been waiting for for Hudson and Isabella! Izzy has been trying to get her brother's best friend's attention for years, and Hudson has done his best to ignore the beautiful Isabella Costa as best as he can. Now they work together daily, and her life is in danger, potentially because of him. I adore the dynamic between Izzy and Hudson. The banter and chemistry between them is glorious, as is the banter between all the Costa siblings. As with every Brittney Sahin book, the suspenseful storyline kept me on my toes. I couldn't wait to see who was going to pop in next from the other teams as well as find out what was going to happen next for Hudson, Izzy, and the rest of the Costa family. I was enthralled all the way to the very last page!

"Stop trying so hard not to do something you so clearly want to do. Just love me instead."

Another Amazing book by Brittney!

Even with danger in this book, Brittney Sahin still makes me want to be there in real life. I LOVE this family and all the connections they have with other characters that I love as well!! I'm not sure how Brittney does it but her books get better and better!! SUCH A GOOD LISTEN!!

Amazing!

Love Ava and Connor's voices! They bring the story alive! Love the cameo of Joseph!

Book 3 of the Costa series starts strong. Isabella “Bella” and Hudson have been secretly in love with each other for years. Hudson is best friends with her brothers and also works with Bella.
After an op Bella and Hudson get into a car accident that puts them in the hospital. After finding out it was no accident, they try to find out who is after them. Secrets come to light and as they work on figuring things out, they both struggle to keep their feelings quiet.
Sahin is one extraordinary writer. Her characters are so real and well developed that I forget they are fictional. As Hudson struggles with his past and not feeling he is good enough for Bella, we see him slowly overcoming his past and finally letting himself show his love for Bella.
This is a fast paced suspenseful story that catches you at the start and doesn’t let you go. I just couldn’t stop reading and finished it in a day.

The Art Of You

I loved all the twist and turns this book took. It kept me guessing, and glued to the edge of my seat. All 3 narrator performances were top notch. seriously, at no point did I feel like it was just someone reading a book to me. These 3 preformed the book, and it was amazing- truly a piece of art in itself. Audible, where have you ben hidding Joseph Cannata? We need to hear more from him. Ava Lucas and Connor Crais never disappoint, and couple them with a book like this is nothing short of magic!

Another winner with duet narration

Tropes: friends to lovers, brothers best friend, coworkers, romantic suspense

Loved Hudson and Bella. Lots of chemistry and banter between them. Exciting fast-paced story with lots of twists and turns this author is known for. Medium spice level.

Book 3 in the series and probably best not as a standalone. Lots of fun crossovers from other series as well.

The duet narration is amazing and really brings story to life. Highly recommend.

Good book

Narration in duet is the only way to listen to this wonderfully creative listen. Love this book. Another favorite.

The art studio moment with the proposal

Loved the story, and the love scenes the action keeps you on the edge. Now I'm going to read the other books

The plot twist

I loved this series and can't wait for Constantine's book. These books have been filled with so many twist and turns and I love it. I want expecting Hudson's and Isabella's story to be so strong with emotions and love so quick but considering they knew each other all their lives it makes sense.

I didn't want to stop!

When I read this book I couldn't put it down, and the audio takes it to an even higher level of fabulousness!

While this audiobook could be enjoyed as a standalone, I highly suggest listening to the series in order.
