About this listen
There was a time when I had everything - a wonderful family, a bright future, and love. But all that was taken away in a single night, torn from me like flesh from bone. Since then I've hidden away in my second-choice job as a makeup artist. But I prefer it that way, actually. I'm comfortable in the shadows, where no one can see my scars.
Kiefer Rogan literally took my breath away the moment I met him. MMA champion turned actor, notorious playboy, charming to a fault - he's everything I vowed to avoid. But he just wouldn't stop until I opened up and let him in. Maybe I should've tried harder to resist him. Maybe I shouldn't have fallen in love with him. Because I, of all people, know that everyone has secrets. Scars. And that they're usually ugly and painful and destructive to the people we love most. I just never guessed that they could be deadly, too.
Contains mature themes.

Story
I'm Muse Harper. I'm a twenty-something painter who loves red wine, quirky movies, and men with fatal flaws. But that was before I met Jasper King. He became my fatal flaw. Eight months ago I had a choice to make - abandon everything I've ever known to protect my family or stay and risk someone getting hurt. I chose the former. My plan was working just fine until I found out my father had gone missing. That was when I met Jasper.

Story
Broken down, and wounded by my emotionally neglectful ex, I wanted someone to tell me I was good enough. Then, I stumbled into a new job with a boss who brought me to my knees - literally. He has me do things a real secretary would never do. Emerson Grant tells me I’m more than just good enough. I’m worthy of his praise. There are a million reasons why I should stay away. The owner of the Salacious Players’ Club is not just my new boss - he’s twice my age. And my ex-boyfriend’s father....I’m a good girl, but I’m falling for the wrong man.

Story
Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

Story
Carter Beckett is the NHL’s resident bad boy, top player both on the ice and in the bedroom, and quite possibly the sexiest man to ever grace my field of vision. But worst of all? He knows it. He’s arrogant, self-centered, and the man doesn’t seem to know what a filter is, let alone how to use one. He’s had everything served to him on a silver platter, including endless strings of women, and apparently, I’m up next. I have the solution to all my sexual frustrations in a drawer at home, and it’s far less complicated than Carter Beckett.

When wilderness guide Harper Ward is summoned to the small town sheriff's office in Helena Springs, Montana, to provide assistance on a case, she is shocked to find that their only suspect in the double murder investigation is a man described as a savage. But the longer she watches the man known only as Lucas, on the station surveillance camera, the more intrigued she becomes. He certainly looks primitive with his unkempt appearance and animal skin attire, but she also sees intelligence in his eyes, sensitivity in his expression. Who is he?

I’ve got a list of people I absolutely don’t ever want to be stuck with on a boat, or a plane, or a train, and it starts and ends with the broody, grumpy, too-sexy-for-my-own good Axel Huxley. Also known as this romance novelist’s number one nemesis. The man is legendary for his mighty pen and his even mightier scowl. I tried to work together with the cocky thriller writer once upon a time, but the two of us are like vodka and good decisions. We don’t play well together.

Story
They rule my new town, my school, and with more money than God, there’s very little out of their reach. Four gorgeous, perfect, scary boys. There used to be five, but one of them died, leaving a fifth position that I now fill. I didn't ask for this. I didn't want to be part of this billionaire-boys-club. But no one cares about what I want. Sebastian Beckett is the worst of them. Their leader. He draws me in, and strips me of every defense I have. He calls me Butterfly, but it's not a pet name, it's a threat.

Fake. That's what we are. That's what we agreed to be. So why does it feel so real? I thought it would have been harder, convincing everyone our school's star receiver was mine and mine alone, but I was wrong. We played our parts so well that the lines between us began to blur until they disappeared completely. The thing about pretending, though, is that someone's always better at it, and by the time I realized my mistake, there was no going back.

Strength ends
Good read until first MMA fight. Then the story because very unrealistic. No one allows weeks to pass with open unfinished pain. So disappointed in this part of the story. Balance was strong, interesting and well developed. A light read.

A TENDER ROMANCE ENDING WITH TWISTS & SUSPENSE
Makeup Artist Katie knows all too well that looks aren't everything because she's got the mental and physical scars to prove that a handsome face can be a mask hiding the true monster underneath. So, when the day comes for her to work on (Rogan the gorgeous, sexy, charismatic MMA Fighter turning Actor) she's confident that he will not affect her in any way.... no, not at all BUT, when she steps into his spellbinding, jaw-dropping, mouthwatering and panty melting aura, nothing, absolutely nothing, could have prepared her for his Godly magnetic presence. Rogan is fed up with the bimbos, the fakes, the users and the women who just want his money..... then he sees the pint sized, vulnerable, shy and clearly not interested Katie and all his senses get switched back on, he becomes alive again and suddenly he's ready for a challenge..... and he's simply not going to take "no" for an answer!
But it's going to take all his patience, charm and understanding to get anywhere because Katie's been burned before (literally) and it's going to take more than a handsome face to coax her out of the shadows and bring her back to life again. However, if anyone can do it Rogan can because he knows all too well that secrets and painful memories lie behind the scars..... as he too has his share of them.
A very enjoyable romance driven plot with a beaten down (but not out) heroine and her charismatic determined hero who have explosive chemistry, tender and touching conversations, passionate embraces and sexy 'get togethers' which builds and builds their feelings for one another. Which is good as they're going to have to depend on each other because they have more that just scars in common..... and history is about to ride up and viciously slap them both in the face with heartbreaking results. The plot then takes a more sinister suspenseful turn with a few twists and, when all his ex Army buddies walk in, Rogan knows things are about to get bad because they've found out just who the Puppet Master is who is responsible for the betrayal, the deaths and painting a target on all their foreheads. The name was a shock but the revenge and payback is awesome.
Worth a credit? This listen was very enjoyable and entertaining with loveable main characters, some humor, a heroine who finally grew a backbone and a wonderful caring thoughtful sexy hero. The dual POV narration was really good with both narrators easily capable of delivering far more than just one voice and seamlessly added all the emotions which, for me, brought the whole book to life making it a great listen..... and YES, they made it creditworthy.
