Publisher's summary

Jasmine left the Sweetwater Ranch and the Morgan brothers, no longer able to bear the painful dilemma of loving them both. After a year away, in which she gains new perspective, she returns home with one goal. To make Seth and Zane Morgan hers. Jaz may have left an innocent girl, but she’s returned a beautiful, sensual woman. Seth and Zane aren’t prepared for the full on assault she launches and each battle an attraction they’ve fought for years. She wants them both, but Seth has no intention of sharing his woman. It’s up to her to change his mind because she can’t and won’t choose between two men she loves with equal passion. For her, it’s all or nothing.

Brazen just fell flat for me....

I really tried but the story just fell flat for me. Jasmine has always been in love with both Seth & Zane. She leaves for Paris because she felt she had no other choice. She wanted both brothers and could not pick one over the other. While in Paris her friend tells her that there is a way to have both brothers. She could have a ménage. So, Jasmine is determined to come back home a year later and have both brothers. She does things to tempt both men. The brothers obviously are in love with her. Zane is more open to sharing her with his brother but Seth is not. Jasmine just annoyed the hell out of me for some reason. There were hot moments between the characters but no substance. Maybe, its just me but I felt this book had more potential.

When Maya gets me

Sometimes Maya gets me, sometimes she doesn't. I carry on a love/hate relationship with her books. This was a love one. She got me wrapped into this story just like I love to be. I enjoyed every sexy, angst filled moment. In my opinion this one was HOT, just the way I like them.So from me it's a YES, its so worth the credit, but this one didn't cost too much to go ahead and purchase instead.

GOOD YES BUT........ SHE'S DONE MUCH BETTER

There's not much to this listen except 1 needy (and greedy) woman's determination to have a ménage with the 2 brothers she hopelessly loves and the ways she tries to make it happen but the road is going to be difficult as they just see her as a little sister.

1 brother is definitely 'up' for it but the other is confused yet pulled by desire and hates himself for it and he doesn't want to share her either so fights the whole situation.

An enjoyable listen that had it's HOT spots and a few dramas but the narrator was so.... slow.... it.... was.... painful and lacked emotion.

Worth a credit? For any MB fan then I guess you'll want this but she's written some far more entertaining, hot, enjoyable listens that are more creditworthy. However, and thankfully, at just over $10 I bought it and saved my credit and realised I just can't go buying every one of her books.

Maya, this book is Not Good

Any additional comments?

I am very disappointed with this book since Maya is one of my favourite Authors The story has no substance at all and the Narrator is terrible. I am very surprised Maya has released such poor quality. I have given up half way through as I Just can't listen to anymore. This is the first disaster from Maya Banks for me. I have bought and loved all her other book released on Audible and will not let this mistake put me of her other works in the future.

More Lacken than Brazen

I wanted to enjoy this book. I love Maya Banks. I really enjoyed the Colter’s Legacy Series and I kinda thought this book would be like them. It wasn’t. Zane and Seth took in Jasmine when she was 16 and a runaway. They helped raised her until she was 22, then she left for Paris because Jasmine couldn’t bear the idea of loving both the brothers. She returns a year later, in hopes, that she can seduce them into viewing her as a woman and loving her the way she loves them. Jasmine is annoying. Throughout the book she complains how she wants Zane and Seth to view her as a woman and not the scared 16 yr old they knew but she constantly does stupid things that make her appear as if she hasn’t grown up at all. At certain points I had to stop listening, shake my head and ask myself “WHY?” .

The narrator drags the story along. I changed the speed to 1 ¼ and it was a lot better. I doubt I will re-listen to this book again. I will keep listening to Maya Bank; I just hope she doesn’t release another book like this one.

Worse than listening to a robot!

The story is good-very good even. This is one of those very unfortunate times when I have to recommend that you purchase the story in written form rather than waste a credit.

The narrator uses a slow, monotone approach to the entire story with only mild inflection when speaking in character. The only thing I can compare it to is a high school class where the teacher makes the students read out loud. The narrator sounds bored with the material and quite frankly like she just couldn't give a ____ about even trying. Her tone doesn't change whether the moment calls for passion, anger, joy, despair. Can you tell I'm frustrated?

At least do this, listen to the preview. If you can handle it, carry on. If not, get the book in digital form because it's a pretty good read.

Nice and easy and sexy

Just what I needed! Didn’t require too much brain power, but was a decent story and really don’t have any complaints. Narrator was OK. Was expecting much worse from the reviews, Narration could’ve had a little bit more inflection,

Two for the price of One = yummy!

Yes, she wants both brothers. Yes, its predictable. Yes, it's a simple entertaining book. No intensity. Easy Listen!

Nothing major happens. She wants both... gets both... the end! ooops, I gave away the ending. I'm sure you didn't see that coming.

I didn't care for the narration. She spoke too slow.

You will enjoy this book even knowing the story. It's all about how she gets both men. Right?

great comfortable read!!

This was a great read for when I wanted a break from overly intense dramatic books! I loved Jasmine, she was actually a strong female lead, not afraid to just ask for what she wants. I actually disliked Seth, towards the end I just wanted Zane and Jasmine to run away without him. Even with that though I still really enjoyed the book!!

The narrator sounds like a human robot

I love the book, which is why I got the audio. The narrator made it unbearable to listen to. Almost a monotone.
