Publisher's summary

It was only supposed to be a vacation romance. Passionate, exciting - and short-lived. But when Jewel Henley arrived for her first day of work at a new job, she realized her exotic lover was in fact Piers Anetakis, her boss. A boss who had a strict rule about not getting involved with his employees. And so, just like that, Jewel was fired. With no money and no job, Jewel doubted it could get any worse. Then she discovered she was pregnant and that she'd have to confront Piers. Piers stormed back into her life with the same passion and intensity that had swept her off her feet five months before. But as loving as he was with her, she knew he still didn't trust her. And until he did, all they had was an affair.

Good story but performance brought it down

Feminine vocal for male parts did not work. Very distracting from story line. Kind of hard to follow Alpha male with high raspy voice.

The Affair!

Another brother submits to love and passion. Theron falls hard. I really was cheering on Bella the whole time. Someone needed to straighten Theron out. I really enjoyed this story and thought the narrator does a good job.

A life changing one night stand

Moving to new places and not having a home is what Jewel Henley is used to. As she starts her new job on an island, she decides to throw caution to the wind and go home with the good looking stranger for a night of passion. When he turns out to be her boss, she is let go. Being homeless now, with no money she has decisions to make, and surprises that come her way has her cross paths with her handsome stranger, Piers, again. With a lot for the two to work out, and Piers's alpha, over protective ways, will the two be able to make a go of it? Meeting the rest of Piers's family is a treat, and I will go back and listen to their stories now too!

Lily Bask has a deep sultry voice and always creates an air of romance whenever she narrates.She gives this story that sound and keeps you interested in their story.

Short but sweet

*Contains spoilers!*

While this story could easily have been twice as long, I would have gotten frustrated at the Piers character’s lack of growth. He makes the same mistake multiple times and Jewel still takes him back. Good ending, a couple surprises, but a lack of actual sex and love.

Didn't like the narration

I didn't like the fact that one person narrated this whole story. A male should have done the male portion. She sounded like a heavy smoker when doing the male parts. I loved the story line though.
