Tropical Storm

Dar & Kerry Series, Book 1

De: Melissa Good

Narrado por: Elisabeth Ashby

Dar Roberts, corporate raider for a multi-national tech company, is cold, practical, and merciless. She does her job with razor-sharp accuracy. Friends are a luxury she cannot allow herself, and love is something she knows she'll never attain.

Kerry Stuart left Michigan for Florida in an attempt to get away from her domineering politician father and the constraints of the overly conservative life her family forced upon her. After college she worked her way into supervision at a small tech company, only to have it taken over by Dar Roberts's organization. Her association with Dar begins in disbelief, hatred, and disappointment, but when Dar unexpectedly hires Kerry as her work assistant, the dynamics of their relationship change. Over time, a bond begins to form. But can Dar overcome years of habit and conditioning to open herself up to the uncertainty of love? And will Kerry escape from the clutches of her powerful father in order to live a better life? The answer to both questions is no—unless these two women can strengthen and cement the tenuous bond that forms between them. First they must face storms that neither expects . . . and live to tell the tale.

Contains mature themes.

Just absolutely fabulous!

I have been a fan of this author since the beginning of this series back in 1999. I am so happy to finally be able to hear her characters Dar and Kerry come to life in audio format. Best day ever in discovering this author. It is a long book. Melissa does not write short chunk stories to milk you for every dine. she is a very detailed writer who makes you live in the momment with her characters. I cannot wait for the next in the series.

Wonderful!

I read the Dar and Kerry books many years ago and loved them. Listening to this book on audio brought this book back to life for me 😀. I loved Dar’s fierce loyalty and her protectiveness. She and Kerry are adorable together. I’m looking forward to the other books being on audio-please hurry 😀

A blast from the past

I remember when the Dar and Kerry series first came out in paperback. Goddess they were/are the best none racy sapphic books out there. (For those interested, Melissa even assisted/wrote an episode of Xena. Warrior Princess).
Dar is a high profile, beautiful, hot tempered computer genius working for the largest computer firm in the US. She is the walkin' talkin' epitome of "Hell in heels".
Kerry is a cute, saucy, brilliant young administrator who also happpens to be the daughter of a butt headed homophobic Senator from Minnesota. She is npush over but a little green eyed firecracker.
After their first fiery meeting over a hostile take over, Kerry goes to work for Dar...and let the fire works begin.
Keeping in mind that these books were written in the late 1990's - early 2000's, so some of the computer stuff and phrases are outdated, you will be hooked!
These are not sex based stories but books with real "meat on their bones". You actually have a story to follow with real in depth characters. You will cheer for them, cry with them and grow to love them. A definite must read for folks who like drama, romance and a bit of suspense.

First of many

I have loved Melissa Good’s work from the very beginning! Gosh it’s been almost 25 years for her original stuff. I love this audio, as I could just sit back and watch the story behind my eyes. Can’t wait to get the rest of them.

Finally!

so, I've not finished the book yet, but this series is one of my absolute favorite. I love the relationship between Dar an Kery, and the books up til the rafting bok are just as good.

Loved this book so much

This book was so good. Great book and great reading. The only thing that I don't like is that only the first book has been recorded. I'm going to be hoping the rest will be recorded too because I loved every character in this book.

The characters are awesome.

What's not to like? I have read the book at least 15 times in the last 20 years. I have been hoping that it was recorded for audible. I hope the rest of the series is coming soon. I think the narrator did a magnificent recording.

Always good work

I love this series. I can't wait for the other books to come to audible.

Best story ever

A well written tale of love and corporate adventure. Great characters and a good solid plot. A really good read.

awesome

was so happy to see, Melissa Goods' name pop up in audible. looking forward to more.
