Park Avenue Prince

By: Louise Bay

Narrated by: Sebastian York, Andi Arndt

Length: 6 hrs and 56 mins

Publisher's Summary

The Prince of Park Avenue finally meets his match in a feisty Manhattan Princess.

I've made every one of my billions of dollars myself - I'm calculating, astute, and the best at what I do. It takes drive and dedication to build what I have. And it leaves no time for love or girlfriends or relationships. But don't get me wrong, I'm not a monk. I understand the attention and focus it takes to seduce a beautiful woman. They're the same skills I use to close business deals. But one night is where it begins and ends. I'm not the guy who sends flowers. I'm not the guy who calls the next day.

Or so I thought before an impatient, smart-talking, beyond beautiful heiress bursts into my world.

When Grace Astor rolls her eyes at me - I want to hold her against me and show her what she's been missing.

When she makes a joke at my expense - I want to silence her sassy mouth with my tongue.

And when she leaves straight after we f--k with barely a goodbye - it makes me want to pin her down and remind her of the three orgasms she just had.

She might be a princess but I'm going to show her who rules in this Park Avenue bedroom.

A sexy, standalone, contemporary romance. 

For Harper and Max's story, listen to King of Wall Street.

For Scarlett and Ryder's story, listen to The Duke of Manhattan.

For Violet and Alexander's story, listen to The British Knight.

For Darcy and Logan's story, listen to The Earl of London.

Park Avenue Prince Was A Work Of Art......

.... But Not Quite A Masterpiece!

May Contain Spoilers;
Louise delivers another well written plot that's dialogue driven, with no wasted words or unnecessary details! It's an instant love story, that's both sweet and steamy, but the relationship between the characters was a battle of push / pull. I enjoyed both the H/h. Poor Grace, in the past she chose the wrong men, but I felt her character was strong, independent, and well rounded.

Sam's character was more interesting, and reminded me of a Phoenix. He rose above his past, worked hard to build his empire, but was never far from his roots. His character was down to earth, and not the typical billionaire, he wasn't concerned with materialistic things. Due to his past, he had a hard time connecting, and developing relationships with both friends and lovers. However, the more time he spent around Grace, the more he understood his deep seeded need to keep people at a distance.

The ending did feel rushed but overall, I enjoyed the story, and narration. The narration really made this audio, York and Arndt never disappoint. I used my credit, and didn't regret it.

Nice Enough

I think Louise Bay just phoned this one in. This just felt like a book written following a formula. This was a nice enough romance with some heat but lacking the substance I've come to expect from Louise Bay. Fortunately, she enlisted two of the best narrators for romance audio. Andi and Sebastian make this story better than it really is.

Worth a reduced price but I don't think I would give a credit for it.

Same as every others of the author's books

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I enjoy Louise Bay's stories but this one was just seemed very amateur for her. I felt like my 16 year old niece could have written this particular story ( minus the sex scenes) and it would have been just as good.

What could Louise Bay have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

A different story line

What does Sebastian York and Andi Arndt bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

They give it great depth and enrichment

Do you think Park Avenue Prince needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No because it wasn't that great in the first place.

nice

it was OK there was not much drama only at the end good storyline good characters could have used a little bit more developing of the male character but overall a good read not the best and definitely not the worst

Love this narration

What did you love best about Park Avenue Prince?

How the book is called Park Avenue Prince and Sam is nothing like anyone from Park Avenue. It was refreshing.

What did you like best about this story?

Sam is so rich lives on Park Avenue in an empty apt with an old couch and a mattress with cups he took from his office, priceless. Also how Grace is called a Fixer, by Sam and her friend Harper. Because without a doubt we all have that one friend who thinks she can fix the guy she falls for.

What about Sebastian York and Andi Arndt ’s performance did you like?

They make an awesome team at narrating. I love Sebastian York's voice and always enjoy Andi Arndt's portrayal of all the different characters she plays.

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

In order to make a film about it they would have to rewrite the story and add more backstory to the characters.

Any additional comments?

The story was good not five stars but I give it four stars for two reasons. One because it is the typical story of boy meets girl, boy falls for girl something happens and now they have to make up. It kind of was blah same old story again. The second reason is I think the author should have dove more into the characters back story. Why Sam was so closed off, more of the story about him and Angie would have been nice in foster care, was there ever a falling out between Grace and her parents? Why was there so little about Sam's story? I just feel there wasn't really a lot of depth about the characters. But I did enjoy it I just feel the story missed some of the building blocks of the characters and the story would have been better if they were there.

Great Narration. Worth a Listen for Romance Fans.

This one was a bit hard to rate for me.

Although it had Great narration by Sebastian York & Andi Arndt!
(Those two are some of the best there are when it comes to narrators)
The story was a bit lacking with character development & chemistry for me.
While I liked it. I didn't feel the passion of the two main characters as much as I did in Max and Harper's story (King Of Wall Street)

All in all, I would recommend it to all those out there looking for a romance
with not too much angst, and excellent narration!

Lead Female Character

I just do not like a female who gives into and makes excuses for the horrible actions of a man. Grace was perfect in every way except her willpower. He left her high and dry when she needed him the most then humiliated her. All it took was for him to show up weeks later for her to forgive him. A female character with little backbone is a pet peeve.

Not Sexy Enough

I was expecting a lot more from my three faves: Louise Bay, Sebastian York, and Andi Arndt. Not hot enough, weak and predictable plot, and an unneeded extra hour and a half.

🙉🙉CUTE🙈🙉🙊

If not for Two of the best narrators , I would get my credit back! This is predictable romance 101. I know Louise Bay can do better!!!!

WOW!

Wait and Hope. Dumas has it right. This book made me laugh and cry. Sam and grace are the ultimate lovers, each with their own story of angst as they come together to show each other what really is ultimate bliss. Do not miss this one. Do not deny yourself the pleasure of getting to know these two extraordinary people. And, as a bonus, this story made me look up more quotes by Dumas. ...yeah, just wow!

Oh wow

I smiled, I laughed and even cried. This was a wonderful journey and I really loved the inclusion of Harper and Max

A modern day fairytale

Not a lot I can say really, apart from........I loved this book so much. I've not yet come across a Louise Bay book that I didn't like, I love her characters, her writing and her book covers, 'Park Avenue Prince' is no exception. Both Grace and Max are beautiful people inside and out, they surround themselves with good people. There's no bitching, no lies and no cheating. This book is pretty much a modern day fairytale, a true feel good read that had me hooked from the first chapter. With lots of romance (even though Sam would deny it), a little bit of sadness and some angst, it's my perfect kind of 'go to' story, just what I was in need of. Loved it, loved the narration, as always, Sebastian and Andi are perfect.

Park Avenue Prince

A fun and enjoyable listen, read with feeling. Another great job by Sebastian York and Andi Arndt.

An enjoyable listen

Variations on a theme. A bit formulaic but entertaining. Worth a listen if you enjoy this sort of fiction.

Disappointing

I’ve read books by Louise Bay before and loved them. I thought I’d try a new medium and downloaded this to listen to rather than read. The male narrator sounded just like the comedian Rich Hall so I spent a while trying not to picture him as Sam. I don’t know whether I would have enjoyed this more if I’d read it. This is the first time I’ve listened this genre and maybe it just isn’t for me. I found myself rolling my eyes at times when the characters were endlessly procrastinating and maybe if I’d skim read those parts it wouldn’t have been as annoying.

Good read

3.5 stars
As a big fan of this authors work I'm sorry to say I'm a little behind in my reading, so I'm rectify this now with Park Lane Prince.
This book oozes romance from the first to the last page making the reader believe a happy ever after is always possible. As Louise knows I love my lead men to be confident alphas that can talk dirty when required, Sam Shaw won me over with his vulnerabilities and romance - Grace Astor didn't stand a chance and nor will you !
Highly recommend 😊

Brilliant

This is the second Louise Bay book I've had and it hasn't disappointed. I've absolutely loved this!

Romance in Park Avenue

This is a love at first sight book. It's cute, and whilst the characters are perfectly nice, they lack a bit of grit. Grace, the Park Avenue Princess, bewitches Sam, the man who apparently cannot fall in love. Their lives become interwoven and romance blossoms. It's a nice book, but I think Louise Bay has written better male leads.

Lovely book

A really lovely book , I'm enjoying reading more books by Louise Bay , added her to my list of favourite authors.
