I keep my two worlds separate. At work, I'm King of Wall Street. The heaviest hitters in Manhattan come to me to make money. They do whatever I say because I'm always right. I'm shrewd. Exacting. Some say ruthless. At home, I'm a single dad trying to keep his 14-year-old daughter a kid for as long as possible. If my daughter does what I say, somewhere there's a snowball surviving in hell. And nothing I say is ever right.
For 21-year-old Aleena Davison, it was a life-long dream coming true when she said goodbye to her dreary small-town life in Iowa and moved to Manhattan. However, it didn't take long for her dream to turn into a nightmare. Everything from the roommate from hell to her asshole of a boss, contributed to her pain and she'd just about given up. That was...until she ran into devilish handsome, Dominic Snow.
"If opposites attract, then I am nothing. Because you, you are everything." There's no easy road traveled to such an intense sentiment, one I never dreamt I'd feel. But I also never planned on Cannon Blackwell climbing aboard my tour bus.

I don't ever remember anyone actually being referred to as a SEAL, but I may have missed a reference. But, it was packed with action and in an unlikely setting for finding true love. Amidst bombs and death, he saves her and she shows a courageous and caring heart. What I didn't like was the future jump that didn't give any reason for his complacency and indifference. After having complete, single-minded devotion, he became an ass. Like, huh? But all's well that ends well and the book kept my interest from start to finish.
Narration was good except the french accent was, at times, inconsistent in it's accuracy
All in all, worthy of Two Thumbs Up.

This is nice romance about two people caught up in a difficult place and circumstances. A hot seal and a beautiful woman are thrown together in a war zone and find common ground in trying to survive. It's an entertaining romance with some unexpected action yet a somewhat predictable outcome. The narration is good, clear and the voices are distinct so it’s easy to follow. If you’re interested in an easy to listen to sweet romance, this is a good audiobook.

Overall an entertaining and enjoyable story. Sometimes you find love in the most unlikely of places. Romance, action, suspense and a HEA. Emotions run high when your in an intense life threatening situation.
Ty was a interesting and believable character. A hot alpha Navy Seal that has some flaws. Leonie was also an interesting and believable character. The ups and downs their relationship went through made their relationship much more believable and normal. You can't take things for granted. Misunderstandings, pride, jealousy can kill even the best relationships.
Barbara Nevins Taylor did a good job with the narration. This is the first time I have listened to her narrate a book. Pleasant voice. Good character voices. Clearly spoken. Her French accent wasn't always consistent. Sometimes it was very thick other times it was not. Although when her French accent was thicker it was believable. She sounded just like many of my extended family members who are French.
Chapter 4 towards the end of the chapter repeated lines. Some static in the background during chapter 19.

Ty, the male lead and a Navy Seal, is on a mission overseas trying to deal with the affects
of a bomb hitting a children's hospital.
The story starts off with a BANG, literally, and moves at a fast pace.
The author has created an entertaining book, a well developed plot as well as characters.
Overall, a Good Read, filled with Action, Suspense, Romance, and a Hot Hero...
I look forward to other novels by the author and narrator.
Barbara Nevins Taylor did really well with the narration.

Wasn't sure how this one was going to end, but it was pretty good. Characters needed a little more depth. Narrator was decent (though not a fan of the French accent!)
