Length: 4 hrs and 34 mins

Publisher's summary

The first time I met Ronan Kennedy face-to-face, it was while he was screaming down a fresh-faced analyst for being less than perfect at his job. And what's worse, he then tried to fire me for being in the way when said analyst turned away and fled—smashing my lucky cactus and ruining my knitting in the process, mind you.

Needless to say, I wasn't impressed. But I also wasn't ready for the unemployment queue. So, digging deep, I made sure Ronan had zero excuse to let me go, working myself to the bone—while squeezing in a little time for knitting every day—to make sure his previously chaotic team was now running like clockwork. I deserve a raise, but the annoyingly gorgeous boss-from-hell barely even uttered a thanks. Jerk.

That is, until I'm almost poached from his team and he's forced to face the hard truth—treat me as an equal or lose me forever.

To his credit, that's exactly what happens. And that's when things get really interesting . . .

Contains mature themes.

Writing=👍. Narration=👎.

Agree with all the comments. Book was decent but the strange secondary voices made things creepy. It would be worth the time if it didn’t cost money. But both money and time…you choose.

needs a different narrator

I really enjoyed this story, not too much angst, and it was solved quickly, which was nice. The female narrator ended every sentence on an up tic, making everything sound very whiny it was a struggle to listen to her. The male narrator does a slightly better job but is just awful doing voices for the other characters. If you can listen to the narrators, I would recommend this. If not, I suggest getting the book and not the audio. listen to the sample

Ugh, just no

The storyline is excellent. However, the writing and dialogue are super immature and cringe-worthy. The male narrator does a good job except for the MC’s best (same age) friend sounds like an 80 year old! The female narrator isn’t fluid - her reading is very choppy and she takes breathing breaks (consistently) in awkward places. It’s distracting.

Overall, I don’t recommend this one. I skipped over quite a lot so I could leave a review. Just no.

Narration sucked

Both narrators were fine when voicing the main characters, but their alternate voices were TRASH. Banks sounded like an 80 year old man when he’s supposed to be in his 30s. The story was OK but predictable.

Beautifully written

Rebecca and Ronan what an interesting couple. A believable storyline with a happily ever after ending.

The audio sample wasn't enough to turn me away

I am kind of upset with myself for buying this audiobook.

The story seemed so interesting, and the audio sample wasn't too bad, but even though the male narrator has a decent voice, both of the narrators read too choppy, making listening to this feel like listening to a middle-schooler read a book report.

I really tried to ignore how irritating the narration was, but I just can't take it anymore. The story itself IS rather interesting, so I recommend just reading the book yourself if you have the inclination.
