I kind of loved this short "office" romance story. It was entertaining and enjoyable with a couple of exceptions. The characters were interesting and likable. Their banter made me smile more than once and laugh a few times as well. Effie and Guy had worked together for quite a while. Unbeknownst to either of them, they were each attracted to the other. During a work trip to Las Vegas, things between them change overnight. Effie and Guy were funny. Neither of them wanted to hurt the other. Both of them wanted more. I loved their happily ever after.

>The narrators were great. I enjoyed their voices quite a bit. They did a good job bringing the story and characters to life. I recommend listening to or reading this book.

So I think this is the only Shaw Hart book that I don’t like. I haven’t read them all and this may be the only one of hers that I’ve listened to, but I really didn’t like it. I finished it because I was hoping it would get better and it would be enough to turn it around for me but it wasn’t.

Maybe it’s me. Maybe I have a disconnect from how SEALS are portrayed in pretty much everything to how this SEAL acts and reacts to things. I had a hard time reconciling someone that was in love with another person proceeding to ghost them and drop off the planet for no good reason. Like if he had been deployed for an emergency or something as opposed to just being afraid to talk to her about what happened between them kind of reason. The whole hiding out at someone else’s house ticked me off too. Because in my head all I could think was, if he hadn’t run into her would he have gotten over his fear and talked to her or not? Her dropping some truth on him when they did run into each other also gave him an excuse to pull his head out of a place where the sun doesn’t shine.

Ok. Rant over about the story. I did like how the story ended. I liked their happily ever after.

The narrators were new to me and although I don’t mess with the settings to speed up or slow down, I kept feeling like I needed to slow them down. Usually I feel immersed in the story when I listen to an audiobook and that didn’t happen here. Now, to be fair since I didn’t care for the story I may be transferring some of that onto the narrators so I gave them a 3 and will listen to something else that they have narrated before I decide that I don’t want to hear them again.

Overall, I wouldn’t say I could recommend the story or the narrators. My recommendation for this book would probably be to try it for yourself and see how you feel.

I really liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable with some Christmas holiday romance thrown in. The characters were easy to relate to and likable. Kate was a wonderful friend and daughter once she calmed down a bit. Jacob and Daphne met three years ago at the first dinner she was invited to with him and Kate. Daphne had been crushing on Jacob since then but knew that there was no way that he could be interested in her. Jacob had been fighting his feelings for Daphne mainly by telling himself that there was no way she would ever be interested in him. A little mistletoe removed their blinders and allowed them to admit more about their feelings for each other. There was some drama but it’s resolved quickly. I loved their happy ever after.

The narrators had nice voices. They did a great job of bringing the story to life. I recommend listening or reading this book.

I really liked this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable although there was some violence and drama. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. Constantine was a selfish jerk. He deserved to have to face some consequences for his actions. Antonio and Angelica met on their wedding day. He wasn’t prepared for Angelica’s spirit or sass. Antonio intended to enjoy getting to know his new wife. Angelica wasn’t sure what kind of life (if any) that she was going to have. She had been told what was expected of her prior to the wedding. Antonio was impressive with the way that he handled Angelica (Angel). He was protective and possessive of her but not in an oppressive way. Diablo was a great addition to the story. His interactions with Carina were hilarious. Angel and Antonio were sweet together but also steamy. I loved their happily ever after.

The narrators did a good job bringing the story and the characters to life. The only thing I didn’t like was when the male narrator said capo. He said it as cape o instead of cop o which was just super weird to me and stuck in my head. I recommend listening to or reading this book.

I loved this story. I read it a while ago but listening to it is great. It was entertaining and enjoyable. There were lots of smiles to be had and even a little laughter. Holly and Jacob were high school sweethearts until they were separated when Jacob moved away with his family. Holly made a Christmas wish. Jacob’s thinking made sense, but I felt that he left a lot up to chance. His belief in their love was super sweet. Holly was all in as well and together they were so cute.

I liked the narrator and she did an excellent job with the characters and the story. With the dual view points I always feel like there should be a male narrator for the male point of view. Again, the narrator did an excellent job of bringing the story to life and listening to her was a pleasure.

I recommend listening to this podcast/story.

I really liked this story. It was enjoyable, steamy, and entertaining. Not sure if it was just my play through or not but the first chapter played twice before going to chapter 2 which was annoying. Damian was unapologetically a jerk. He was over the top when it came to Annabelle and he was willing to do anything and everything to keep her. Annabelle was sweet but a bit naughty too as she was happy to tempt “the beast”.

The narrators did a great job of bringing the characters to life. The male narrator is new to me and his voice was just wow! I wasn’t prepared for that but he definitely fit the larger than life feel that Damian had.

I definitely recommend listening to this podcast/story.

I liked the story a lot. I think that it may have been better with alternating a male and female voice since it was a virtual voice. At times it was difficult to figure out which character was the one that was speaking or thinking because of the lack of differentiation. I still enjoyed it and I think that it’s worth trying out and listening for yourself.

I liked this story a lot. It was entertaining and enjoyable for the most part. I wanted to yell at Crane for not just telling McGovern to shove it but it worked out. The reveal with who wanted Liza hit me from left field. I totally didn’t see that coming. Crane and Liza had an instant connection that was a surprise to both of them. I loved their happily ever after. The narrators did a great job of bringing the characters to life. I recommend listening to this book.

I liked this story a lot. It did touch on a deep trauma for the male lead that resulted in survivors guilt. The loss that he endured was one that no parent ever wants to experience let alone in the way that he did. Charlotte was sweet about the way she tried to honor his loss but also helped him to move forward from it.

The narrators did a great job of bringing the story and the characters to life. I liked how the story turned out. I recommend listening to this book.

Although I found this story frustrating at times, it was still entertaining and enjoyable. I liked it a lot. Cryden made me a little crazy with how he was all about duty over everything else. He was way too willing to just do as he was told for a retired general. Maya was sweet but she also frustrated me because she kept holding on while knowing Cryden wasn’t available. The way that Maya took time to get to know Cryden’s daughters was super sweet. I loved their happily ever after. The narrators did a good job of bringing the characters to life. I recommend listening to this book.
