Publisher's summary

Can you fall in love in thirteen hours?

It's her birthday but lonely workaholic Dana Watts is at the office late, drafting a proposal. The very last interruption she expects comes in the form of the most beautiful breasts she has ever seen. These belong to an incredibly hot woman, who is standing in front of her, stripping to music. Laurel Stanley performs strip-o-grams to pay her way through school. She has never encountered a more ungrateful recipient than Dana. The uptight project manager makes it clear that she is furious to be distracted from her work by the "gift" a colleague sent and equally appalled by Laurel's occupation. After Dana is rude and insulting, and insists on escorting Laurel from the building, the two women take an elevator ride that changes everything.

Stuck with each other for thirteen long hours after the elevator breaks down, they discover how wrong first impressions can be and how right two strangers can feel together. Can everything change in less than a day? Dana and Laurel set out to discover if their passionate elevator encounter can mean more in this fast-paced, erotic story of lust, loneliness, fantasy, and desire.

Absolutely Fantastic!

The most amazing love story! The sexual growth through honest communication and trust was like no other story. I enjoyed the entire journey to include the ending. It is very explicit which I loved. I cannot wait to read her next book. This one will be hard to top.

Romance with Eroticism

Thirteen Hours is the story of an uptight career woman who gets stuck in the elevator with the birthday stripper-gram whom she spitefully rejected earlier, while she tries to escort her out of the building.

It’s Friday night, and everyone’s already left the office. For the next 13 hours they’re stuck in the elevator, and each chapter is an “hour.” Tons and tons of build-up, and finally! On hour 11 ...

Plotting is Difficult for this Author

What made the experience of listening to Thirteen Hours the most enjoyable?

The development of the relationship.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

I have read other books by this author, and she has issues with plotting. I would have spent a little less time on the sex and a little more time developing a plot and creating a better climax (no pun intended). The book is more sex than story. I understand that she's trying to develop the characters through the sex, and the sex is well done, but we see very little of their characters outside of the sex.

What about Alicyn Aimes’s performance did you like?

She's excellent at developing different voices for difference characters. She may be one of my favorite narrators.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

"Nine and a Half Weeks in an Elevator"

Any additional comments?

This author has so much potential, but she doesn't yet have the skill to experiment with plot the way she does.

What an awesome love story!

I was gleefully surprised at how sweet the love story developed from these two polar opposite main characters! I was expecting just a quick, raunchy listen but cannot express how happy I was to discover it went so much deeper than that. I will definitely be listening to this again when I need a good pick me up.

SEXY and FUNNY

This one is the BEST of romantic comedy. I'm really enjoy listen to this story.

Hot erotica, bad performance

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. The sex scenes was very erotic. Too bad the performance was lacking.

Would you be willing to try another book from Meghan O’ Brien? Why or why not?

Yes for the same reasons has above.

Would you be willing to try another one of Alicyn Aimes’s performances?

No. I thought that her performance lacked emotion and was rather dull.

Any additional comments?

I really liked the idea behind the story. The sex and romance between Dana and Laurel was very hot. Too bad they couldn't get someone else to do the audio.

awesome

this is my second book by this author and it just keeps getting better. lesbian erotica is the perfect way to describe the book.
