Story
Heiress Daphne Ryan is uncertain about spending a week at the sprawling country estate of the family of her sister’s boyfriend. For starters, she doesn’t get along with her sister. Then there’s the fact his family is old, wealthy aristocracy, and Daphne’s from brash, new American money. Mostly, it’s that everyone knows Duncroft House is haunted by the ghost of a 1920s film star who died there. Deemed an accident, for nearly a century, people are sure it was murder.

Story
Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
This Psych 312 assignment just might send me off the deep end. Determining whether love at first sight really exists with Robbie Moravian as my project partner of all people? He’s the sappiest man alive, so upbeat I could scream, and clearly rooting for happy endings at every turn. How does he not learn from experience considering our own meet-cute last semester almost got us expelled? But we both need to pass this course to graduate. So we’re interviewing five random couples about their meet-cutes and relationships and spending all this time together. Which is certainly...educational.

Beckett: If you’re reading this, well, you know the last-letter drill. You made it. I didn’t. Get off the guilt train, because I know if there was any chance you could have saved me, you would have. I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart.

For Dee Kwan, every day is the perfect day. No, really. She has a house she loves, a job she adores, and a ridiculously attractive “nemesis” who never seems to mind when she wins their favorite online game. How can life possibly get better? (It can’t, obviously. It can only get much, much worse.) Soon Dee is forced to share her adorably cozy home with her parents and estranged grandmother. Then she’s tossed into the deep end at work, tasked with cleaning up a scandal for the intimidatingly chic luxury fashion firm Celeste. If that weren’t enough, she discovers her hot nemesis works there, too.

I want MORE!!
This was awesome! I can understand how some people may not like Frankie because she tends to run before facing whats bugging her. But can you really blame her esp with how her own mother and father were. I don't know if I would have been as forgiving to Benny's family so fast I mean she was giving them the silent treatment for a reason in the hospital but then I can see her deciding thats its not worth the grudge. I was mad at Benny for letting her run like he did, I thought he was so determined to have her. Why did he wait? Drama but glad it didn't last long. For a long distance relationship I think they did a bang up job there really wasn't much drama there and I thought there would have been. I was checking out the Goodreads rating and I am really surprised at the 2 and 3 stars maybe you have to experience this book audio book style to truly appreciate it. Either way I was not disappointed in the least. I think Frankie grew as a character and was open and honest when she could be. And I think Benny brought that out in her and had her back when she needed it. So all in all I gave is 5 star's all the way through. Enjoy Everyone!

Get pronunciations correct!!!
I cringe every time I hear the Bianchi name mispronounced in this book! Has the narrator not to mention the editor or production crew (I assume crew?) ever considered doing a simple Internet search to find a correct pronunciation if they are unsure? I checked myself & there are several websites all with the correct pronunciation which is Bee ah n kee -like Chianti wine.
So annoying!!
An author like Kristen Ashely (who is one of my favorites) should get an experienced narrator for each & every one of her books!
I will be reading this one one own & finish out the series with the last book on audio.

It's ok
Is there anything you would change about this book?
I love Kristen Ashley books, but this one... I dunno I feel like the girl's kind of a push over... I get it, hot guys but I feel like a lot of the women in her books forgive because the hot guy is "ready". The women are constantly being put off and I dunno I feel like there should be more anger, they're to forgiving...unless I am just an angry person?
What three words best describe Amanda Bruton’s performance?
I could hear her slurp every-once in awhile and it was...off putting. Otherwise she did a good job

This one was good just not as great as the others. I loved Benny and was excited to get to his story! I love how well he goes with the flow of life and doesn't try to push Frankie for more than what she can give him. He was great at making things work no matter the obstacles and seriously good at compromising. I have to say their story was a little boring. I guess I expected a lot of excitement because of the past books in this series.
The narration was good, Amanda Brunton did a great job with these characters

Good
My review: 3.5 stars
Story 4
narration 3
We are first introduced to Franky and Benny in the end of At Peace. I loved At Peace so I was very excited when we met Benny and Franky and I couldn't wait to hear their story. I enjoyed the story. I wasn't head over heals in love with it like I was with At Peace but it's good.
Franky and Benny have an honest love and overcome many obstacles, mainly being that Benny'd dead brother used to be with Franky and the entire family held a grudge against her. I did at times feel like this didn't live up to the amazing start in At Peace. I wanted a bit more. More of what I am not quite sure, that umpf I guess. A lot does happen and we get to see one of my favorites, Luke Stark. (Yummy Rock Chick)
The thing about audible books for me is that the narration can really impact the story. Perhaps I would have been in love with this had I not cared for the narration 100%.So the problem with the narration for me was that I could tell when the actress stopped and started again. Sometimes there were weird pauses and then her voice would get loud. She did a god job with Benny, but sometimes Franky's voice would sound kind of manly. Eeks. Cals voice for me was to feminine. (He's a tough guy)
I would also have liked this book to move faster for me, and I feel like that is a reoccuring theme for my feelings on this series.

Disappointing
Would you try another book from Kristen Ashley and/or Amanda Bruton?
Yes, I love Kristen Ashley but this book felt like she didn't have much to say about the
characters so just filled in with boring details. It did not compare to Kristen's other books.
What was most disappointing about Kristen Ashley’s story?
It just wasn't an interesting story.

Is this Kristen Ashley? Maybe it's the narration.
I'm about 6 hours in and getting kind of bored with this one. It started out with good character development but now it's just getting drawn out. We need to get on with the story. That said, the narrator is really flat and brings little to the book. It may move faster and be more upbeat with Kate Russell, Emma Taylor or Susannah Jones. They narrated the Rock Chick and Mystery Man series and some of the other books that seemed to be a more enjoyable listen. It just sounds like both characters are depressed.

There is something very engaging about Kristen Ashley's work, something I do not entirely understand. Her plot lines are not typical and do not adhere to the standard formula, and that may be the elusive element that I can not so easily explain. It works, though, and that's what counts.
That said, she characterizes extremely well, steadily---oftentimes explosively---drives the romance/relationship, writes emotionally powerful prose and seriously steamy scenes, and leaves you with an experience to remember by the time you hit her trademark, satisfying epilogue.
Amanda Bruton gave a good performance. Her narration drew me in and never jarred me from the story. She portrayed Frankie's attitude and internal thoughts very well.
While this is not my favorite Burg story, I enjoyed it very much and would not have wanted to miss it. Well worth the money.

Story: 4 Stars; Audio: 2.5 Stars
Story was typical for KA and nothing too original. If I had only read, rather than also listened, I might have enjoyed it more. The audio presentation wasn't the best I've heard. A female narrator for both the female and male POV's. She was okay for most of the male voices, but she completely ruined Joe's(Cal's) voice. He is one of my favorite KA heroes (At Peace) and the narrator made him sound like a nasally mobster wannabe. I cringed every single time he had dialogue in the story and ultimately ended up reading through any parts with his dialogue
