Gentleman Nine

De: Penelope Ward

Narrado por: Sebastian York, Andi Arndt

From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

Growing up, the three of us were friends. He was the nerd. I was the playboy. She was the beauty.

Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits.

He lied.

I went off to college, and he got the girl. Amber never knew how I felt. They were together for years - before he broke her heart.

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men. One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings. Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy - curiosity.

Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message. She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend - me. But she considered me off-limits - and she thought I was a man-whore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel. When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she was stunned to see me standing there - with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse.

About an average lovestory

I enjoyed the dynamic of this a lot. Its comfortably average, but it was a nice listen because it was well written. I do feel like there could be a larger use of vocabulary which was a little annoying, and the guy who voiced Channing I feel like his voice didn't match and I just envisioned a really old dude from Texas that drinks whiskey all the time. Other than that it was a good listen.

Friends Forever

Another great story! From childhood friends to so much more! I loved the story of Channing and Amber. How they ended up finding each other after so many years and even still Channing watches out for Amber and how they fall in love. I absolutely can't forget Kitty! Loved the audio as well!

What IS a gentleman 9?

A Very good listen! Couldn't tell for awhile what exactly a Gentle 9 was - but when you do, it's an intregal part of the story. The narration was good, easy to decipher between the characters. Listened to in 3 days.

Great Story

I actually played the on game and thought interesting. Hearing read is much better to me.

Excellent narration

Another great book narrated by my two favorite narrators. Love the storyline. A very sweet love story.
