True North

By: Marie Force

Narrated by: Holly Fielding

The first time Travis North lays eyes on Liana McDermott, she's wearing the most hideous bridesmaid dress he's ever seen. He doesn't immediately recognize the world-famous super model who is attending her cousin Enid's wedding at the country club he owns. Thanks to Enid's shameless matchmaking, Travis and Liana become acquainted and later embark on a two-week fling intended to be free of emotion and entanglement. As Liana's return to work gets closer, however, Travis wonders how he'll ever let her go when the time comes while Liana considers whether he might be her true north. Two high-powered careers, two amazing weeks and a love that comes along just once in a lifetime. Is she ready to give up her career for a different kind of life? Does he want the same things she does? After insisting on an emotionless affair, she can't very well ask him. Or can she?

A lovely story with so-so narration

This book popped up as an audible recommendation and wanting something new, I decided to try it. The story is sweet, though I agree with other reviewers that the real love story is with Beck and Jessie in the subplot. Still, the characters are believable and human (considering we're talking about millionaires and supermodels).

What didn't work for me as well is the narration. Holly Fielding has a great voice; I just don't think it's the right voice for sweet romance. Her tone carried a note of tragedy to it that squashed a lot of the happier, lighter moments. It wasn't bad; it just could have been better.

I enjoyed the book enough that I'd give Marie Force another try.

Hang in there

I really struggled to get into this book, as the Alpha Male, pushed the woman a bit too much for me. she said no, he said you'll like it... it set my teeth on edge. Once I was able to get past those first few chapters, I was happy with the rest of the book. It ended the correct way.

Not as good as the fatal series

This was just ok for me. Worth the credit but no rave review here. Narrator put me to sleep. She should not read romance. No emotion

IDK what to say….

It’s hard to believe that this is the same Marie Force that wrote the Fatal and First Family series. I didn’t find the dialogue as engaging and the male leads (both) were big babies and would storm off when things didn’t go their way. Where is the Nick in this story? Ugh, nowhere!
The narrator’s voice is too sweet and monotone for the book. She sounded depressing.
If I hadn’t had to use a credit, it would’ve been okay (maybe as a Kindle read and listen), but I didn’t see that it was worth the credit - especially if you’re a Sam and Nick fan.

Great Love Story

I've listened to this story three times - it never gets boring! Great summer read - even in Florida;)
