The Art of Desire

By: Stacey Abrams, Selena Montgomery

Narrated by: January LaVoy

Trouble comes in threes...

One doomed love affair after another has made lovely Alex Walton swear off men. Now, she's determined to try something that maybe she can succeed at: a writing career. Little does she know that a chance meeting with a strikingly handsome stranger, a mysterious obelisk, and a lost kingdom will change her life forever. As Alex is about to discover, truth can be stranger—and far more dangerous—than fiction.

...but true love comes only once.

After three years inside a terrorist organization, Phillip Turman is trying to rebuild his life. His first assignment is to pick up Alex Walton, the maid of honor for his best friend's wedding, at the airport. His second is to deal with his instant attraction to her. But his third may be the toughest: to keep Alex out of danger as his past—and her need to know about it—threaten to destroy their future.

Critic reviews

"Adventure, secrets, and burning desire keep the pages turning...Recommended for readers curious about Abrams's early works and those who enjoy lyrical prose with witty banter similar to the books of Eric Jerome Dickey and Terry McMillan."—Booklist

Good read.

I enjoyed this book. The storyline was very interesting. However, the love story was similar to the previous book, which made this one predictable. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the plot. Looking forward to the next, if there is another. I wonder what a book about Atlas would entail…

When romance meets mystery meets intelligence

This is my first listening of a Selena Montgomery book, at the recommendation of a friend. I so enjoyed this book, the great character development and to wonderfully, descriptive vocabulary. I can't wait to read more!!

Adventurous love story!

I am enjoyed the way love and thriller was intertwined. I enjoy books read by the narrator. And the story line was intriguing. Another great listen!!
