The Interview

De: Donna Alam

Narrado por: Aria Holland, Elliot Matthews

When I turn up on Whit’s doorstep, résumé in hand, I’m expecting an informal interview, not a honey-dripped seduction. But that doesn’t mean I won’t grab it with both hands…

My older brother’s best friend doesn’t recognize me. To him, I’m still the kid he sends a gift card to every Christmas. He doesn’t want to hear I spend them on fancy lingerie. Or that I dress up and fantasize about him.

He’s determined not to employ me. But I’m not just looking for a job but also an experience. The kind that only he can give.

I want our days to be full of secrets and our nights to be full of sin. For six whole blissful months. After that, everything will change.

I only hope that when the truth comes out, he can forgive me.

Good

Whit and Mimi have known each other since she was a young girl. Whit being her brother best friend. Skip to now when Mimi is all grown up and she still has a thing for Whit. She goes to London for six months want to explore she want to feel freedom after her brother past away and her life was to care for her family so when she leave her home she start to care for herself and put herself first. Whit is owner of a business and has no time for a relationship and when she goes for an interview she is mistaken for an escort. Mimi is hire to take over his old assistant job. Whit tries to be a gentleman and not become involved with Mimi but they're attracted to each other, they can't resist each other. There was a secret and a twist in this whole book. Whit's family is hilarious. Mimi's aunt Doreen is funny they all had me laughing. The spice in the book is hot.

When your resume just doesn't matter!!

The Interview is a smoking hot story that starts great, then fizzles a bit for me. Amelia (Mimi) goes to London for 6 months to work and see all the sites. She shows up to interview with Leif Whittington (Whit) as his assistant. He is her late brother's best friend and doesn't recognize her at first. Things are pretty spicy with these two. There's angst, some age gap, the younger sister crush on brother's BFF, a smoke show in the bedroom (and the office, and the...you get it) all rolled up with a less than stellar ending. But still a pretty good story. Whit's family is hilarious which saved this one for me.

The narration was great! Aria Holland and Elliot Matthews are two new narrators for me and I was impressed. I'll definitely be looking out for them in the future. 5 star narration!

Cute with good spice

Really enjoyed several of the spicy scenes and the banter was really cute as well.

Witty and spicy

Loved the timing and dry comedy in this racy story. Made me look for more from this author!

Mimi and Whit!

I really enjoyed listening to this book, the dual narration by these two was really good. Amelia goes for an interview with her late brothers friend Whit and WOW what an interview. She is only in London for 6 months and wants to enjoy everything that freedom gives her. These two try really hard to not give in to their baser instincts but their chemistry and Amelia's need to experience life break down Whit's walls. This book has some very steamy kinky scenes, great dialogue and wonderful characters that kept me interested till the end.

I was sent a free audiobook from HCB and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

4 stars

This was pretty good for a billionaire workplace romance. The spice starting as soon as it did and then the buildup until the next time was great too. The whole forced proximity she's my best friends sister vibes was addicting.

The Interview

Narration: It would have been better had they kept the male voicing the man's dialog and the female voicing the woman's dialog. Neither of them were good at voicing the opposite sex. Cringe.
Story: I thoroughly enjoyed the story until I didn't. About 3/4 of the way through, Amelia started getting on my last nerve with all her indecisiveness and playing games. I don't know why authors insist on all the angsty inner dialog, neurotic female bull💩. It's annoying af. Spice level? Hmmmm...🌶🌶🌶
Overall: I'd recommend, but if you can hold out til you see it free, do so.

Spicy & Fun!

Ahh this book was so hot! 🥵 and it starts in the first chapter within the first 10 pages! It was amazing as it has age gap which is one of my all time favorite tropes.
I loved the dynamics between Whit and Mimi and the character growth for the two of them was fantastic!
The attraction between the two honestly started first for Mimi when she used to look up to him when she was a little girl as he was her brother’s best friend. Then when she was 24 she moved to London where Whit is owner of a business and she takes over his old assistant job. He wasn’t so sure he should have pursued her because since her brother past away he was suppose to protect her, but he came around and showed all of us how much of a sweetheart he could be to mimi. He honestly was so romantic drawn to her and he knew she was it for him.
And I loved the banter between all his siblings, and Mimi’s aunt Doreen they all had me laughing out loud. I did cry a couple times in the last 15% of the book for sad and happy tears 🥹.

Hot! Hot! Hot!

If you like, smut this one’s for you! I absolutely love the way that Donna Alam wrote this book. My favorite side character is definitely Aunt Doreen! She had me laughing in tears!!

Eh...

The plot is bland and I just couldn't get into it. Over 50% of the plot thus far (I am still trying to finish) centers around sex related thoughs/actions so if you want a nonstory story, this is for you. Personally, I want both spice and plot.
