Length: 7 hrs and 38 mins

Publisher's Summary

Literary agent Emily May is in danger of losing everything she's worked for - her job, her home, her friends, and the security she provides her older sister back in Singapore - all because she doesn't have a green card.

Racecar enthusiast, high-flying, fast-living Derian Winfield is called home when the only family member she still cares about falls ill. Forced into assuming a role in her father's dynasty she's spent years avoiding, Derian needs to rehabilitate her black sheep reputation in a hurry, or the agency will likely end up being lost in a takeover.

Together she and Emily take on Derian's father and his hatchet woman, and in the process Derian comes up with a plan to solve both their problems. Now she only needs to convince Emily to marry her - a perfectly reasonable solution to all their troubles, or so she thinks. She just hadn't counted on falling in love.

smiling

I knew I would love the story because it's Radclyffe. But, I was anticipating the argument or fight between the 2 characters. And when it happened I laughed. And after they made up, I was smiling the entire time not wanting to end. But, knew it would. Radclyffe is so predictable that you literally know which direction the story is heading and how it will end. And that is why I always give 4 stars instead of 5 for Radclyffe books. The story and performance is definitely a 5. Radclyffe needs to surprise us readers one day. And even put an epilogue. Not that this review will matter. As for the Narration, Abby Craden is one of my favorites. Love her voice and the tone she uses so you can make the distinction of each characters. I always look for Abby Craden Narrations. She is amazing!

Great Story!

The u-haul is offset by years of interactions, even if guarded. Cross-culture ethnically, the lovers have similar tragedies that has shaped them as well as loyalty where it counts. Great character development. I really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes publishing insights. Not at all sure how the woman in the cover art relates, but the story was great.

It needed more.

The story was fine for a light listen, with good narration and generally likeable characters. It lacked in character and backstory development, but worked for a quick Saturday read. I was initially excited to see this author include a Person of Color as one of the primary characters in the story; unfortunately, the only way one would know that was because it's stated that she was from Singapore, but that's it. This actually became distracting, because I keep seeking character descriptions or cultural references that would support her being Singaporean, but there were none that I can recall. Even the and title and cover photo made no sense, in that regard. I was particularly disappointed with this lack of effort on the author's part.

Incredible

Radclyffe and Abby craden are one of my favorite duos. This book hit all of the marks for me!

Maybe the Best of all!

I was totally absorbed by this book. The characters were lovely and believable. The story kept me listening late into the night. I have liked Radclyffe's books before but I think this is my favorite so far.
When it comes to narration, Abby Craden has my little lesbian heart in her hands. I could listen to her whisper sweet nothings to me forever. Makes her perfect for all these Romance books and this one I think was the best.

sweet story

loved this story, characters, romance. radclyffe's stories help me relax and escape and always make me smile.

awesome

Excellent. I fell in love with the characters and the story. I have always enjoyed Radcliff's books, but I got lost in this one. Beautifully believable, tinder and rough at the same time. love it.

Wow what a great story

I loved this story. I found the narrator yo be exceptionally good. I would of loved to have heard more of the story towards the end. to me it definitely left me hanging.. but most great story do... Everyone should read this book.

Had to come back and say I just listened to this book a second time and loved every moment of it...

You can never go wrong with a Radclyffe!

First, this story was awesome! I enjoyed the characters. Their personalities, mixed well together, which made the chemistry leap into the listener.
Abby Craden...what more should I have to say? Craden is spectacular and gives life to each character, her voice is a type of seduction that makes its way into your soul and fills you from the inside.

Keep up the good work ladies.

At a loss for words....

This book is well written with characters and emotions that left me wanting more. A longing for the world to wash away so I could continue living in a world this author and narrator created. Together they laid out a story that I never wanted to end. Beautiful, captivating, and powerful with emotion that is both overwhelming and breathtaking. A wonderful dance of Love, desire, and passion you can feel, with a longing for more.

great narration and pitch and tonal quality

love the narrator's voice n way it is read. the right kind of voice for diff characters.
