Publisher's summary

Even in dating, the best defense is a killer offense. And with exes that are flat-out bad dudes, you can’t go wrong with the biggest, baddest Big O consultant at your side.

Name’s Aidan Knight. I’m the guy you don’t bring home to mama - the rough, gruff, tatted-up bruiser our clients hire to scare off dangerous exes. Though I’m always intense, when the terrorized client is a great girl I never should’ve let become the one who got away, my new default cranks up to savagely protective.

Letting her out of my sight is just not happening. And soon, the time we end up spending together starts including some really big, epic O’s. The kind that require cardio workouts and protein bars for stamina. As if I need more reasons to fall harder for this woman.

For the record, back in college, I thought I was doing the noble thing by leaving her untouched. Now, I see things a little differently. Will I be saving her from her psycho mob boss ex? Of course. Will I be the gentlemanly knight who sets her free and leaves the rest to fate again?

Hell no.

Note: Hot Knight for Hire is a super sexy romantic comedy, entirely from the hero’s point of view. Lots of filthy sweet talking. Insanely acrobatic smexy times. Two wild and crazy characters. And a romping fun HEA. Enjoy!

Great story but should’ve been 1 book

I love Lili Valente books- never disappoint. Awesome story, humor and an A+ on steaminess. This was all the above just split into 3 short audiobooks which could have easily been combined into 1 fantastic audiobook...but saying that, I would still fork out the cash and listen to it all over again. Thanks, Lili, for making me justify my purchase in my mind- it did save me an expensive bottle of wine after a less than stellar day at the office.

A SECOND CHANCE FOR HUMOR, HEART, HEAT & LOVE

If you're looking for a Rom/Com then you've probably just found your next listen.. because this has some very funny scenes in it. But humor isn't the only thing that makes this such an enjoyable listen - there's a feisty sassy Heroine, a sexy Alpha Hero, some steamy sex scenes, there's a dash of suspense and danger, a Mob connected ex that won't go away and some very sleak and clever banter between Aidan (aka Curved) and Catherine (aka Cat, Red and Panties). They first met at College when they belonged to the same Dashers Club, got up to all sorts of antics and quickly became best-friends.. but not lifetime friends because, before things could heat up between them, Aidan walked away. Aidan is pondering over his lost friend and the lost opportunities there while he goes to meet MBC's new client and suddenly he sees the very face that's been haunting his thoughts.. Cat - the girl he didn't realize he loved.. the girl he'd left behind. Only now she's no longer an innocent girl and now she's in some serious trouble.. trouble with a capital T and only Aidan can sort it out.

This is a second chance at love story with some flashbacks to their past friendship told from quick-witted and crazy archived letters and texts showing just how tight Curved and Panties were, how well they got along and what they each meant to one another 11 years previously.. before Aidan walked away from the best thing in his life. This book picks up where Magnificent Bastard left off but you don't need to listen to that one first as this is easily a standalone listen. Bash and Penny (from the previous book) made appearances and it also had a sweet dog named Fang. Told from Aidan's POV but a few Chapters were from other characters. Good narration.

Worth a credit? The feeling of togetherness between the H and H really stood out and so too did their off the charts chemistry and so the relationship quickly developed because of it.. but it was easy to understand why these two clicked straight off when you hear the depth to their history together. It's a fun listen, an enjoyable listen, a very entertaining listen and YES a creditworthy one too.

Upset

Would prefer my fantasy world not include the authors political views. I do not agree, with this authors opinion or disrespect to the President of the United States.

Spectacular Rascal

Any additional comments?

I'm a very big fan of Lili Valente's so it's always a pleasure for me to read/listen to her books. Spectacular Rascal was enjoyable and had several LOL moments, Cat is a strong woman that gives as good as she takes.
Really enjoyed the end with the cats POV, very different and cute.

Such An Enjoyable Book

Where does Spectacular Rascal rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I'm lucky in that I really hit pay dirt with the audiobooks that I listen to, and Spectacular Rascal is right up there with the best of them. It's got everything from irreverent humor to scorchingly hot love scenes to crime caper, and it all just works together.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Spectacular Rascal?

The first night that Aidan and Cat spent together is pretty memorable, but I have to say that all of the texts between all of the characters are my favorite moments. The one that really made me laugh out loud was the one near the end of the book between Bash, Penny, Aidan, and Shane; Lili has a real knack for the witty repartée, and it just shines through in the texting scenes.

What does David Ledoux and Lili Valente bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

This was my first time listening to an audiobook with David as the narrator, and he just nailed it. The ease with which he brought each different character to life was very well done, and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him. Having Lili in there was a pleasant surprise; she's a lady of many talents, and captured the essence of Cat just perfectly.

Any additional comments?

SPECTACULAR RASCAL is a fast-paced, super-fun, sexy as sin listen, and I couldn't recommend it any more highly. 5 stars all the way.

Review: Spectacular Rascal

What did you love best about Spectacular Rascal?

Oh - The attraction to distraction between these two. Their shared history. The flashbacks and "text archives". The soldier's butt hidey-hole.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Spectacular Rascal?

The time in Ithaca was what I remember most, before the thing (spoiler-free speak) happened. The attraction between Aidan and Cat is palpable, both in their past and now. When they are together, free of the stress of their (Cat's) "problem", they are relaxed, happy and falling in love.

Which scene was your favorite?

Aidan's puppy talk scene and the girls and their exploding ovaries.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Absolutely - I almost did, but you know, work and adulting and stuff.

Simply Spectacular!

Would you listen to Spectacular Rascal again? Why?

Yes! This book has me laughing out loud, I absolutely loved it.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Spectacular Rascal?

The reading of the text messages between Aidan and Bash was hysterical.

Which character – as performed by David Ledoux and Lili Valente – was your favorite?

David Ledoux reads the vast majority of the book so I guess he was my favorite. He brought so much to the character and really did a fantastic job.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! I wish I could have just listened to it all at once but life gets in the way.

Any additional comments?

After reading this book I knew what to expect from the story, but hearing it out loud was so much funnier. I would highly recommend this audiobook.

Fun Romantic Comedy!!

First off, David Ledoux is going on my favorite narrators list. He is so expressive and energetic; and he has a sexy voice too.
This book is an easy, fun listen. It’s set in two different time periods; current times and 11 years earlier, during college. There is also a bit of drama that involves an ex-fiancé of the Heroine, but it’s a pretty minor part of the story.
To be honest, this isn’t going to be a book that you’ll add to your, “Great Literary Experiences “ list but, if you’re interested in an easy going, humorous, no angst listen, then this book is for you!
