Publisher's summary

Chemistry!!!

So many things to say. I loved the narration. The female voice was believable and the supporting characters were a bonus. The story held my attention from beginning to end and some of that is due to the delivery. This story was definitely a good one. Can't wait to hear the next one.


This book was given to me in exchange for my honest review through Audiobook Boom...

Dumb and Dumber

For a couple of supposedly sophisticated,professional adults,they sure do fly by the seat of their pants in serious decision making.I don’t blame Mr.Stonehsven for not trusting his son to run his company if he’s using it to seduce all his personal helpers only to get them fired,then making poor decisions on using company funds for his own personal reasons.What kind of friend is Carol too for practically instigating meet times between Rebacka and the man-wh#re anyway.Rebacka just got out of a relationship with a different man-wh#re,you gonna shove her or encourage her to fall for another one.Narrator was fine,story was a bit half baked.

Sweet & Seductive

Nick and Becca's story was a series of coincidence sprinkled with the dust of fate.

I found myself laughing and swooning, entertained until the very end. Not especially angsty or drama filled, more light and flowing.
I literally listened to this one from the second I downloaded until it was over.

Gary Furlong did a great job at narrating. I do wish that they would have had dual narration for this one. It was difficult to remember if it was a Becca chapter or a Nick chapter but I know this would not be Gary's fault and I felt like he did a fantastic job with what he was given.

Although I was given a copy of this audiobook by Audiobook Boom, it in no way influenced my review.

3.5 Stars Sweet Push and Pull Romance

Nicholas and Rebecca meet on a cross country flight and there is instant chemistry. Rebecca is moving to New York to escape an embarrassing public break up and to start a new career. Nicholas is the son of a powerful businessman and returns home to New York to find that his father has arranged an engagement between Nicholas and the daughter of an important investor.

They end up in an awkward position because Rebecca’s new job is working as Nicholas’ assistant, and Nicholas tries to fight his attraction to Rebecca while trying to appease his father. I enjoyed the constant pushing and pulling each other closer and then away again. It was an entertaining story told from dual POV’s.

This was my first time listening to a book narrated by Gary Furlong but I don’t think it’ll be my last. His voice is sexy and he does a hot alpha male. He also manages a decent feminine voice so he handles the dual POV’s well. His performance was an easy 4 stars, maybe even 4.5.

I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

Didn’t hate or love

I chose this story because I loved instant attraction. I didn’t love or hated but it was a good escape for just a little while. This story was not the best but the performance made this bearable. Although I enjoyed Gary’s performance, I wish this was dual narrators. The story was told from both POV. I believe it would’ve been better. All in all, it was worth the credit.

awesome

Engaging.........

I normally don't like books with cliffhangers but this one was the exception because it is a complete series. You won't have to wait to know the outcome with this book. 😉

If you like books with a handsome-rich-powerful man and a pretty-submissive female, need an escape from reality or just need a break from the mundane then this book is for you. Although I thought some of the situations were unrealistic, I found myself engaged in the story and characters. Not for everyone but will appeal to those who like a little fantasy in their reality.

Note: There is detailed sex and strong language in this book so I would not recommend it to young readers or anyone who prefers clean reads, etc.

I thought Gary Furlong did a great job with the narration. ( I will definitely be checking out the other books he's narrated) 😉

I would like to thank the author, narrator, or publisher for providing me this audiobook at no cost in exchange for my unbiased review.
