Publisher's summary

Anna Kirby is sick of dating. She's tired of heartbreak. Despite being smart, sexy, and funny, she's a magnet for men who don't deserve her. A week's vacation in New York is the ultimate distraction from her most recent break-up, as well as a great place to meet a stranger and have some summer fun. But to protect her still-bruised heart, fun comes with rules. There will be no sharing stories, no swapping numbers, and no real names. Just one night of uncomplicated fun. Super-successful serial seducer Ethan Scott has some rules of his own. He doesn't date, he doesn't stay the night, and he doesn't make any promises. It should be a match made in heaven. But rules are made to be broken.

you have to have lived it to understand

at first I didn't get this book and they both made me so mad because all they had to do was communicate. But then I got it. I've been Anna in a relationship wanting the world but too scared to say anything that may mess it up because of previous relationships that have gone bad because you expressed your thoughts and feels. this is a good book and a great listen. if I had to change one thing it would have been to add a epilogue.

Ethan and Anna

An entertaining, sweet, and charming romance. Sebastian York and Maarleveld were great narrators, I enjoyed listening to them bring this book to life.

Pretty good but typical romance…

This was a good listen. The narrators did a good job! I am FAR FROM a prude and love a good sex scene in a good romance novel. That being said… I feel like all they did was boink. It sort of got old but this story is basically based on a couple who got started with sex so I get it. I just feel like the author could have taken more time to develop these characters. To clarify I mean give us a little more background about where these people came from and why they are the way they are. It was like they screw and screw and the next thing we know they are in love! Then all of a sudden Ethan became this insecure love-struck guy… it was still good and entertaining. If you want to listen to a cliche romance to pass the time, this book is for you! Sebastian York is amazing as usual! Bottom line, I do recommend this book! Happy listening guys!

Great story

It was a great story. Sabastian York can generally do no wrong. I only wish there had been an epilogue.

Not my favorite

The narrators were excellent, but this story was not one of my favorites. It ended abruptly, and the female character had to take all the big steps in the relationship first, while the male character literally sulked about her not taking them yet.
