Ms. Fortune

Drive Me Wild, Book 1

De: Amy Booker

Narrado por: June deBorahae, Ryan Lee Dunlap

There are a lot of ways to impress Normandy Blake. Unfortunately for Brandon Carmichael, being a billionaire isn’t one of them.

Normandy Blake and her half-sister Chelsie just inherited Mischief Motors from their late father, Victor. The company is the most elite private car service in Las Vegas, serving the wealthy and the lucky, and the sisters are desperate to keep it that way. But news of Victor’s death has mixed reactions from their clients.

One of the top tech companies in the world is holding its annual board meeting in Las Vegas, and its CEO, Brandon Carmichael, wants to pay his respects to his late friend Victor while he’s in town. Before the meeting, an insider trading scandal has his company’s stock plummeting and the SEC breathing down his neck.

When Normandy and Brandon meet, sparks fly, but not in the fun "theme park fireworks" way; more like the "metal in the microwave" kind.

If they can get past the friction, they might be able to help each other. "If" being the key word.

Book one of the Drive Me Wild series is an enemies-to-lovers contemporary novel for listeners who like a little steam, a side of humor, and a dash of drama with their romance. The series features stand-alone stories of Mischief Motors' women and the men who think they can handle them.

Normandy and Brandon

This story is a journey! The number of emotions are insane. Whether at the characters or for them. I honestly am a little emotionally exhausted after this one.

The characters are amazingly build and grow thought the story. Well written, and keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end! A must read/listen.

Ms Fortune

New author and new narrators for me. Loved both! This is one of those stories that evolves as it goes. It’s not the same story as it starts out as and it’s a wild ride. Two unlikely people finding each other like a fairy tale. A bit of mystery and suspense thrown in and it’s actually very well-rounded. Bravo for a great story.

Romantic and Suspenseful!!

This was an entertaining story! It was a fun slow burn, with plenty of heart and heat. The characters were delightful together. Normandie was a little tougher to get to like, she stayed a little too stubborn for my liking. Though I do believe it her tough exterior works with her characterization because of her past experiences. Brandon was adorably awkward with Normandie! Having his awkward interactions with Normandie told from his perspective were wonderful.
It has fun mob-type suspense element to it with plenty of romance, too. There is steam, swearing, some violence (not explicit, but really there's a mob connection in the story, no violence in that would be difficult).

I'd recommend this story for anyone searching for a romantic suspense type story or anyone needing a story with wonderful characters who are adorable together.

I enjoyed both narrators! I thought they did a good job with the voices. I listened to the story at 1.1x speed.

Fantastic job

This is a fantastic story of love that will thrill you and infuriate you and drive you crazy but you will cheer and love the ending

It was an emotional story. Like any other it was about two people helping each other by acting like lovers. It was well written. I loved the voice actors. I feel like the female voice actor could have voiced something better but other than that it was a good hearing.

New Series.

Loved Normandy and Brandon story! Enemies-to-lovers romance. Well written book full of twists, mystery and drama. Can't wait to see what's next in this series!
Absolutely loved June deBorahae and Ryan Lee Dunlap!

meh

This book was okay, but not more that this.
I really didn't care for the heroine - she presented herself as a strong woman, but blamed the hero for her misfortune, which he had no part in, because "he promised everything will be okay". Really?
The narrators were okay.

Romantic suspense

Ms. Fortune had a balance of romance, drama and suspense. The story is full of secrets, deceptions, twists and turns. Overall I think it was well written but it was just missing something to push it over the edge to be fantastic.

Good story

This was good story. I enjoyed listening on audible. I loved male performance. He did a good job. However, although I gave 5 stars for performance, female reader read her part more dramatic than what her character was. I cringed when she read her part. Other than that, I liked it.

3 star listen

Audio gifted for review, narration is good and fits the theme of the story.

Fmc is a little ridiculous and I wasn’t a fan. Mmc was a little the same but the complete opposite side of the coin.

I didn’t by into the relationship and I thought it was just a little to unrealistic for me since i was expecting contemporary chic lit. Fmc was to hard on mmc and mmc was just too overly into fmc straight away. He’s apparently good looking and a billionaire ….. I just don’t understand the draw of the dmc for him once he’s shut down more than once …..

3 star listen
Not really for me, sorry team.
