Park ranger Kyler Clemons had loved the vibe and the beach of Mustang Island. Getting caught with her boss’ wife, however, got her transferred to the wild and remote Davis Mountains State Park - in the middle of nowhere.

If there’s one thing Brooke Sullivan knows for sure is that people let you down, but that hasn’t stopped her from going after the life she wants. In a new city, with a new job and a new start as a high-end real estate agent, she’s finally back on her feet. The last thing she needs is a distraction. Not her volatile neighbors, not a damn stray cat, and certainly not the flaky, infuriatingly adorkable girl-next-door property stager she has to work with.

Publisher's Summary
Laurie Holcombe is out of a job, out of luck, and out of time. When a prestigious law firm hires her as an assistant to one of its senior partners, it feels like she might finally get back on her feet. All she has to do is put up with the whims of her infuriatingly icy boss, Diana. How hard could that be?
Diana Parker is Atlanta's top lawyer and isn't afraid to let everyone know it. She's driven, ruthless, demanding, and stuck in a failing marriage. Too bad she can't run her personal life as well as she runs her ordered office.
When a young assistant shows up with bright blue eyes, a cute Southern accent, and a streak of pink hair, Diana's sure she's all wrong for the job. And yet something seems to be pulling her and Laurie Holcombe together, drawing them into a secret, thrilling dance that's far too dangerous for a boss and employee.
Can they make rules for this powerful attraction, a way to keep each other at arm's length? But how do you resist the irresistible?
Contains mature themes.

I’m not sweating, you are.
Jesus. I’m not religious.
This has to be the hottest—nay, the HOTTEST f/f ice queen/older woman/I didn’t know I was gay romance novel yet.
It took a few chapters for me to warm up to the Southern accent, but I really couldn’t hear accents for long, due to the pulse in my face/heart palpitations/stirring in various body parts, etc.
It’s high praise to the author and orator when it’s 3:30am and I have no intention of turning the book off or going to bed...

Soooo ridiculously good!
I LOVED the physical book and remembered thinking if they could find the right narrator to do the audiobook, god help us. And sure enough - they did. I'll be honest - in the beginning I wondered what it would be like if Abby Craden narrated it (since I absolutely LOVE her work!) but was very happy discovering Anastasia Watley - who I'd never heard before. She uses two completely distinct voices - personal assistant Laurie's being a delicious Georgia/southern accent and then a reserved, controlled voice for Diana - the high powered ice queen attorney. When things heat up between the two of them - my, my, my, my, myyyyy..... Ridiculous hot. Ridiculous. When Diana loses control in her desire for Laurie... my god. I literally shivered at one point. If that isn't proof of skillful narration, I don't know what is. Turbulence is probably still the hottest, most delicious audiobook I've ever listened to, but this is a VERY close second. It is NOT for people who don't enjoy sex in their lesfic. But if you do, it's like you died and went to heaven. Lord. Have. Mercy. I'll definitely be listening to this one again.

solid
As far as romance novels go, this was one of the better ones I've read. Cool to have the lesbian theme...would absolutely welcome more of this. Would like to see lesbian/queer novels that don't have the coming out storyline - mostly because I don't want to relive my own coming out experience over and over, but also because that is only one facet of the queer experience, but seems to be a point of focus with almost all of the queer themed books I've read. This one also wasn't particularly cheesy (and this genre is often unreadably cheesy). Also just really hot all around. Ultimately even with the coming out criticism it's nice to read a well-written lesbian romance novel. Did we even have those 20-30 years ago?? More, please.

Really unfortunate choice of voice for Laurie
It appears I’m in the minority here but this was a really unsettling listen for me. Not because I have any issues at all with lesbian erotica, but because I just could not get past the narrator’s voice for Laurie. I don’t mind the southern accent in the least - it’s the AGE of the voice that I never acclimated to. Laurie is supposed to be a 25 year older member of gen Z, yet she talks like a matured, middle aged, southern school guidance counselor; the kind of voice that’s spent 55+ years being hawked up like phlegm from the gullet. Diana’s voice was much younger sounding and she’s supposed to be 18 years older! I honestly could not visualize a hot young thing like Laurie when listening, so I just kept getting visions of Margo Martindale pawing at poor, lovely Diana in some kind of really uncomfortable Golden Girls sexual cosplay. I’m going to need to listen to something else to get that image out of my head. I also just couldn’t get into the romance. These two go from kinky power games to being in love in the blink of an eye. Maybe I would have bought into the love story more if I could visualize Laurie as she’s written, but again, I just couldn’t get past the voice. Really disappointing. I so wanted to like this one.
