Resumen del Editor

Sloane: Dominic Alexander is my late husband's best friend and the last man that I should want. For the last ten years, he's taken a sick pleasure in making me feel paper thin, like my existence is of no consequence to him at all.

But now, things are different.

After a drunken night, and a surprisingly sexy act of heroism, he's started to be . . . nice. Treating me like something other than the embodiment of his annoyance, which would be nice if it didn't make me feel things I swore to never feel for another man after my husband died.

Dominic: Sloane Kent is going to be my undoing.

What's worse: I think I'm going to enjoy being unraveled by the gold flecks in her hazel eyes and the way she scrunches her nose when we're arguing, which we've done a lot of over the past decade. She thinks it's because I hate her, and I've let her think that because the alternative is . . . untenable.

But something is changing between us, and I don't know how to stop myself from breaking every promise I've ever made to myself regarding my best friend's wife. Promises that include never telling her that there's a long list of things I feel about her, but hate isn't one of them.

Contains mature themes.

SENSATIONAL!!!!

Let me just say, that I was NOT ready for what this book was going to give. I read a brief description about a man falling for his best friends widow and was unsure if I would truly like it. Fortunately, I had heard so many good things that I decided to give it a shot AND BABY.....IM SO GLAD I DID! One thing that makes a good romance, in my opinion, is angst! I want to be taken on a journey of longing, sexual tension, desire. Ms. Seegars definitely did that and was an amazing captain along the way!

Ok, So to briefly describe this enemies to lovers romance, Sloan ends up taking a job with her deceased husbands best friend. The same best friend who she has always assumed hated her. Dominic has definitely had his sparring matches with Sloan but little does she know he has always had a soft spot for her and after an incident where he comes to her aide, he decides to let it be known just how deep his feelings for her go. His revelation jars Sloan but she eventually succumbs to his advances.

I was completely enthralled in this story from beginning to end. I loved the relationship between Sloan and Dominic! It started out kinda rocky but by the end, you were completely routing for them. AND THE SPICE.....10/10!!!!!! J.L really got me out her looking for my real life Dominic Alexander!

If you need a super cute, romantic and spicy read....this is the one. I highly recommend!!

This book was so riveting and romantic!

I love the characters and how the meaning of love was portrayed. Very good read.

Love Beating The Odds

This book was such a pleasant surprise; I enjoyed every minute. The background was described with visual clarity, I could actually see the details of the college campus; I could feel the struggle between Sloan and her mother. There was no down time in this book. It was laid out perfectly with a few surprises thrown in. ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Different but enjoyable

As most the lady narrator was not a good fit for this book. Wesleigh Siobhan or iikane would have been the better fit. The storyline was good, but the lady character had her annoying ways. Maybe a bit longer than need be.

Great Book!

This was my first time reading a book from this author. I am now a fan. This book was a slow burn that ended with a second chance romance. The female narrator was new to me but, she a good job.

Wheewww,,,Ha!

So, this was my first book that introduced me to J.L. Seegars and I am truly glaaaaaaaaaaad about it! I am not okay with the be a lover with the dead spouse butterahhhh to see their history unfold, I was intrigued, to see all the love that was there...baybehhh chemistry and connections do not lie! Point. Blank. Period! Also, BOTH the narrators were fine to me as I enjoyed them both. I want to write so much, but don't want to because I do not want to destroy the story...but I will say, I also didn't like her mother lol. Okay, I'm done.

Great story horrible narrator

This story was riveting. I just hope they change the narrators. The voices were hard to listen two but the story made it worth it.

gosh, I mean 18 hours?!

Maybe it wouldn't have seemed so bad if it had a different female narrator. Winston James is amazing, I can listen to him always. thi a definitely could have been 10 hours shorter tho.

Good Book Poor Narrating

I really wanted to like this book more than I do, however the female narrator was VERY distracting, and at times pulled my attention away from the story. Like the other reviewers mentioned she sounds very robotic and like she is reading some sort of manual. No emotion. I thought I could get past it and it was a real struggle. Winston James performance was a great as always. I do hope to read/listen to other books by this author though.

Keep listening, overall story is good.

The author did a great job with this story, however, had it not been for Winston James I would have not finished it. Bianca Drew did not do a good job narrating. Her tone was dry the majority of the book. The story and James performance is why I gave it a 4 overall.
