Always Heated

Sapphire Lake, Book 2

De: Irene Bahrd

Narrado por: Allie Martina, Gideon Frost

“You’re not sunshine after it rains. You’re the f*cking storm, Cass. But you’re my storm.”

Ten years after making a marriage pact with her brother’s best friend, Cassidy Rogers is finally engaged. Except, it isn’t Travis Harrison on one knee. Cassidy’s sweet veterinarian boyfriend, Zack, pops the question before Travis has a chance. While she loves Zack, there’s no passion, no fireworks. Still, she agrees to marry him, unknowingly breaking Travis’ heart.

Doing everything in his power to break them up, Travis is unwilling to accept Cassidy's love for Zack. When all of his plans fail, he’s left with one final option—admitting his feelings for her have nothing to do with their pact. If Zack is out of the picture, does Travis have a chance with the one woman he’s always loved, or will everyone get burned in the process?

Always Heated is a sort-of spicy, romantic comedy-ish love story, intended for mature audiences. Just because it has funny moments, doesn't mean you should forget to check your content warnings… There are a LOT with this one.

It is a homerun

Much like the first Sapphire Lake book this one is full of sweet and saucy moments. Travis and Cass made a pact 10 years ago that if they are not married, they shall marry one another. She thinks Travis is full of it, Travis knows he is being completely honest. Just how can he show her that he is being serious? Can Cassidy actually date her brothers best friend?

Because it is an Irene book it is FULL of bedroom moments, but it comes with so much more. Always Heated also has talk of SSRIs, therapy, burning out and love. So much love. It is a very fast paced book, so while there is some background in the first book the days go by quite quickly in this just over 5 hours audiobook!

Best friend Marriage Pact

Wonderful soothing voices. The characters are well represented and make this a fast audio. Some banter, plenty of open door scenes, and yearning for more than a best friend relationship makes this audio production a winner.

Dual POV and duo voice actors.
