The Deal Breaker

Breaking All the Rules Series, Book 1

De: Cat Carmine

Narrado por: Rock Engle, Kendall Taylor

Working for my ex-boyfriend? Sure. But falling for him again? That's a deal breaker.

Dancing around my office in my bra isn't exactly the way I'd have chosen to run into my ex for the first time in 12 years, but what can I say? Wes Lake has always had a knack for showing up at the most inopportune times.

Unfortunately, he also has a knack for leaving. That's why I've made every effort to put him out of my head - and my heart.

But this time, he needs my help. Wes Lake, head of Manhattan's preeminent real estate development firm, needs my tiny little marketing start-up to take on a special project at his company. The money's too good to turn down, so even though I'm leery of working for my ex, I accept.

There's just one problem: I can't stop kissing him.

I know better. I swear I do. But that doesn't stop my lips from being magnetically drawn to his every time we're in the same room. Can you blame me? He's gorgeous, wealthy, powerful - and he still remembers how to push all the right buttons.

So to keep things professional, Wes and I strike another kind of deal.

• No kissing.
• No talking about the past.
• No seeing each other outside of work.
• Did I mention no kissing?

Shouldn't be a problem, right? Except I might have underestimated Wes. Because when it comes to business - or pleasure - he'll do anything to seal the deal.

Even if it means breaking my heart in the process.

Contains mature themes.

Son of a Buttercup

This one had me tear up. Super sweet.

Narrators were great. Her long pauses are kind of annoying but she's still pretty good. I just bump the speed up on her chapters lol

Good story, meh narration

I liked this story, the characters, and the female voice actor. I can't say I loved the male one. Every sentence sounded the same from him-- his inflection was the SAME every single sentence and it sounded sooooo scripted from him. It pulled me out of the story every chapter he narrated. The plot itself was good and I think the timing of it flowed well. There were some cringy bits but mostly it was fine!

a fresh take on a second chance

I thought this was a refreshing spin on a second chance romance. and the spice was immaculate!!!

the style of writing

I enjoyed the background stories and how they were intertwined. I especially liked Wes's life story. The way bits and pieces of his life were injected into the book made it seem almost like a mystery to solve.

sweet romance with just a bit of spice

This was a sweet story about second chance romances. I love the narrators the most because they bring such life to the story.
