A Single in Seattle Novel

By: Kristen Proby

Narrated by: Emma Wilder, Lance Greenfield

Length: 6 hrs and 27 mins

Publisher's summary

The Scandal is an all-new marriage of convenience, age-gap novel from New York Times best-selling author Kristen Proby, set in her Single in Seattle Series, featuring Stella McKenna! 

Who knew that weddings in Vegas were the real deal? I certainly didn’t when I agreed to marry my coworker while on a bender in Sin City. Now, I need a quick annulment, which means I need an attorney, STAT.

Honestly, with a name like Grayson Sterling, Esquire, I expected an old man in a three-piece suit. But the guy behind the desk is anything but stuffy and old. Tall and sexy with tattoos and striking blue eyes, I simply can’t take my eyes off him, and I have no intention of declining his offer of a date…and more. So much more! 

The conversation between us is good, and the man should win awards for his bedroom escapades. I find myself trusting him in ways I never thought I would—until he breaks that trust. 

Gray insists he can fix it. 

He claims he loves me. 

But I don’t know if we can survive this.

I loved Stella & Gray's chemistry from the very beginning. I especially loved their first date because it felt so real and it really helped me with the quick love story. They spent a night just enjoying each others companies and getting to know each other. I also loved her family and her BFF so much. The drama at the end was a little over the top but thankfully it didn't take too long to get resolved. I also loved the bonus epilogue, it made me want to listen to the original With Me in Seattle Series again.

The narration was good. Lance Greenfield is a favorite of mine!

Disappointed☹️

I’ve been a huge fan of Kristen Proby especially the Seattle series. Which make me so sad I was disappointed with this novel. The story is good. The male narrator wrecked it for me. Nothing about him was sexy, funny and likable. It was so hard for me to listen to him. I am sure he’s a lovely young man, but not the right man for this character. I feel really bad to say that.! I wish I just would’ve read the book, I know I would’ve really enjoyed it. I actually think that I’m gonna give it a read.

The Scandal

Stella meets Grayson when she needs an attorney to annulment because of a drunken night in Vegas with her best friend, before he can get married to the love of his life.

I loved the With Me in Seattle series, Stella is Nate and Jules daughter from that series. I love that we’re getting the second generation because we still get glimpses of some of our favourite characters from that series. It feels full circle and more well rounded we get family and a sense of more with this series.

Grayson a little bit older than Stella but that never came up for them. To other people it was a big thing but to them all they saw was each other. I like that Grayson helps out his neighbour, I like that he is in contact with his family. We kind of see that theme throughout the whole book family is very important to both of them and the fact that they incorporate each other into their families even at such an early stage warmed my heart.

Now we have to talk about the sparks!! Hello my goodness, the things he wants to do to her in an elevator will make you blush.

I just thoroughly enjoyed this book and narration is perfection it really brought each of these characters their own voice, I can’t wait for more.

Age Gap Insta Love

This whole series is so good! Loved Stella and Grayson. Their first meeting was so fun! Lawyer meeting an interior designer

Underwhelmed 😕

The synopsis of this book seemed very interesting, and since it was on sale, I took a chance and grabbed it. This is a very, very slow, moving book. I found the narration performance very lacking from Lance Greenfield. I found a whole book very one dimensional character development was almost nonexistent and I was bored even after skipping ahead. In my opinion, this book is not worth the sale or a precious credit.

male narration

I love Kristen Proby, I love this series, but I'm not done reading this and have to say that the Male narrator is absolutely horrible. I'm cringing. I'd rather hear her read the male part. he doesn't read commas or pause appropriately. ugh, this is hard to listen to. 🙉

Good story line

Another great story by this author. A fun night in Las Vegas results in an accidental marriage. Grey is a lawyer who helps Stella obtain her divorce from her best friend. Sparks fly between Stella and Grey. Fun and a few bumps in the road. Does it work out in the end? Read/listen to find out. 😊

Yet another great one!!

I love the With Me families! Come Away With Me was my first series book in this genre of reading I had ever read and needless to say, I was HOOKED!! I never want them to end!

Best aurthor

Kristin Proby is the greatest writer. I love all her stories. I keep coming back for more.

OBSESSED

This Single in Seattle series just keeps getting better and better! I seriously can’t get enough! And I obsessed seeing the OG characters throughout.

The Scandal is Stella and Gray. I freaking love Stella!!! So much of Jules in her from her strong and sassy personality, to her fierce protectiveness of her family. Grayson is just swoon 😍 an alpha Viking with an age gap. I’m done!

Kristen Proby has absolutely nailed this second gen. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

love it

I read the book and was okay with it but listening to it was so much better.

Excellent book

I’m really enjoying the Single in Seattle series. It’s wonderful to read about the children from the In Seattle series now all grown up and getting their HEA’s. This time it’s Stella’s turn, she’s a strong minded/willed woman who knows what she wants and goes after it. When she meets Gray she likes what she sees despite the age difference. Likewise, Gray is driven guy who takes one look at Stella and just melts, she’s his and he’ll do everything he can to make it a reality. Overall I loved this book, I did feel the “Scandal” could have been more and for me I wanted a definitive conclusion to it. I wanted to know exactly what the outcome was. I’m bloodthirsty that way. That aside, this book is a wonderful addition to the series. I can’t wait to read the next book. The narration as always is excellent and brings the book to life.

Such an amazing read!!

Grey and Stella are the best. Such good characters and such a good story. Would highly recommend. Also very easy to listen too, listened to it all in one sitting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
