The Things I Do for You

The Alexanders, Book 2

By: M. Malone

Narrated by: Eva Kaminsky

An enemies-to-lovers tale about how far one man will go for the one he can’t help but love. From RITA Award winner, M. Malone.

Nicholas Alexander doesn’t mind being called a playboy. His charm serves him well in business and a beautiful woman is always on his arm. Except the one he’s in love with. As difficult as she is beautiful, he's completely out of his league.

Raina Winters doesn’t believe in love. She's convinced it's a scam created by greeting card companies to sell flowers and chocolate. So when she’s dumped right before her wedding, she’s more upset about losing the one thing she wanted from marriage. A baby.

When Nick learns about Raina’s dilemma, his first instinct is to leave her hanging like she left him after their steamy one-night stand. But he finally has something Raina needs, so he offers her a deal. He’ll give her a baby if she gives him something he desires just as much.

Just two little words.

I. Do.

Warning: This book contains encounters with a drunken Elvis, pushy mamas, tabloid shenanigans, several occurrences of bad cooking and hot sex between two people who aren't even sure they like each other. Just saying....

Raina & Nick were oil and water but things could

Nick was a man that had everything he wanted in life, that was with the exception of the one woman that set him on fire. He loved her. She wouldn't have him. It was fun an games their one night of steamy passion. He never forgot it. He finds a way to get her and make her happy. The one thing she wants he is more than happy to provide her with.

Watching Raina and Nick fall in love through ups and downs was fun. Watching Raina come to terms with the fact she loved Nick was beautiful. Eva did a fabulous job with the narration. She makes the story move right along. She does a lot of the right things to make the audio enjoyable to listen to.

Eva did it again. The consistency of the voice from the previous additions in this series. She has kept them all smooth, clear, clean, and easy to distinguish.

awesome series

I just can't get enough of the Alexander brothers and their story. it's so addicting.

Best in Series

Of all the Alexander books, this one I felt was the best. I usually just listen to my audio books in the car. How, I could not stop listening to this one. The funniest part was the marriage in Vegas. When the Elvis marriage man was druck, I found myself laughing out loud. Nick was the true heart of this story and the Alexander brothers. The was kind, loving, and a all around good man. The kind of man every women wants to one day find. He was not perfect, but he was good.

The Things I Liked About This Book

I'm solidly sold on this series. Each book gets hotter, the world larger and the characters become family. Even as we get a sexy little love story, the author introduces other characters to be featured in future books. I'll be listening to more in this series for certain.

Mesmerizing and throbbing

Which scene was your favorite?

Nick's apartment after Raina nearly bombs her press conference at Sweeties. Nick tells her that he'll give her the child, but she must marry. He tells her that he can't breathe because she consumes his every being. That one night of passion was enough for Nick to know that Raina was his soul-mate and no other woman will do. I loved how matter of fact he was about offering to be the father, all the while I knew at any moment he was going to reveal his true feelings. The anticipation of his revelation and how Raina was going to react was overwhelming.

Any additional comments?

I'm not done with the book, but I felt compelled to write the emotions evoked by Raina and Nick's passion. I found myself paralyzed by anticipation, waiting for Nick to tell Raina that he loved her. That, not only will he give her what she desperately wants, but that she had his heart to. I honestly felt like Raina at the time, imagining myself looking into his eyes. the author is brilliant and talented.

These romance novels are not helping my husband, at all.
