Publisher's Summary

Handcuffs aren't just part of their job in this sizzling new standalone romance by USA Today best-selling author Stacey Kennedy.

Veteran cop Maddox Hunt is all about the job. Sure, there are women - lots of women, truth be told - but there's no one special. Until a one-night stand from his past, rookie Joss O'Neil, is assigned to his division. Suddenly, all he can think about is her. The scent of her. The taste of her.

Fresh out of field training, Joss has thrown herself into her job, determined to kick-start her career. And while police work has its thrills, her gorgeous new boss is what really gets her pulse pounding. Too bad he's nothing but a distraction. Especially since he's as devastatingly handsome as she remembers, and his sexy smile arrests her heart.

Now that Joss is back in Maddox's life, he has a plan: satisfy her fantasies and fulfill his every dark desire. Nothing is off limits. Her pleasure is the endgame...but even the best-laid plans have a way of falling apart. Despite his best attempts to keep his distance and have things remain only about the pleasure, Maddox soon finds himself breaking the only law he's set for himself. Don't fall in love.

Fun sexy romance

Stacey Kennedy strikes again with Heartbreaker:Filthy Dirty Love, Book One. The chemistry between Koss and Maddox was off the charts from the very start. I thought the story moved well and loved how their relation changed along the well. I also thought the narrstor, Gideon H. Welles did an great job.

seems to have editing issues

I was really into this book but towards the end there were some editing issues. lines were being repeated and it really threw me off to the point where I couldn't finish it. I enjoyed the narration but his female narrations could use a little work but I still enjoyed listening to him and will listen to him again.I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

When you least expect it

Stacey Kennedy gifted me this audio book in a giveaway. Maddox and Joss share one hot as hell encounter, years later after police academy she works under him. Neither want a relationship but they can't fight their attraction. Stacey Kennedy delivers a story that pulls you into the minds of her characters and has you fanning yourself at the heat level. Gideon H Welles is the perfect voice for this book.

Give me more!

From the beginning, I was hooked! This book was a great mix of Story, Love, and Sex. I felt like it had just enough of each to keep me entertained and immersed. The narration was great with Gideon's wonderfully gravelly tough Cop voice. Loved it all!

Note: I received this books in exchange for my unbiased review. This did not affect my opinion of this book.

cringy

omgsh the narrators voice is sooo forced and cringy, i couldnt get into because of his voice uugghh

No discernible change in male/female voices

Although the female voices sound like males, it was still a good narration. I set the speed at x1.25 though and it sounded much better.

Hot, steamy and fun!

Hot and steamy from the start, Stacey Kennedy has a winner on her hands. Maddox and Joss first meet a year before in a quick, bathroom encounter, you know, the one night stand with no ties. Fast forward the year, and Joss is now through her police training and who should be her superior? After trying to ignore their attraction, they agree to a friends with benefits arrangement, but will that be enough? The chemistry between these two characters is evident from the first scene. Kennedy has given them both of them depth, coming from different pasts and having to overcome obstacles. I really enjoyed the back story of Maddox's father and his battle with Alzheimer's disease. Having a grandparent that suffered from this disease, she was spot on with the way it affects the patient on different days and how Maddox is able to learn to deal with it. This relationship is key to the final outcome for me, and I loved the way it was intertwined into this steamy story. The supporting characters of Amelia and Greyson were both a lot of fun. Amelia certainly has a way of stating things and Greyson appears aloof but intuitive. Can't wait for his story.

Gideon H Welles portrays the dom in Maddox with such a warm but commanding voice, you can't help but get wrapped up in the narration. I love that he can easily switch between male and female voices, and does not use a high pitch for his female creating that fake sound with his baritone voice. His pace and flow with the characters was perfect.

Starts with a bang and keeps it going to the end!

Heartbreaker starts out with a bang in the prologue and doesn't really let up until the end! It's sexy and intense and emotional - with both characters needing to get past their reticence towards relationships and the obstacles in their way so that they can take full advantage of the opportunity for happiness together. This is a great intro to Stacey Kennedy and it totally made me want to read more (specifically the next book in this series, Skirt Chaser, because we get to meet Greyson in this one and YAASSS) from the author! 3.75 out of 5 wine glasses.
