About this listen
"Fatally beautiful. Gut-tightening intensity. Off the charts sexual chemistry and a love story unlike any other. You will devour this tale by RK Lilley and only want more." (Audrey Carlan, number one New York Times bestselling author)
"Classic RK Lilley with all the angst, steam, and edginess she does so damn well. I loved it!" (Kylie Scott, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author)
“Some books are simply better than others. This is one of those books. Calder Banks Castelo is a jerk of epic proportions. Jerk-a-licious perfection. Banks and Noura together light this on fire. Sensual, angsty, exquisite. Don’t miss it.” (Jana Aston, New York Times bestselling author)
There were rules in the cash-for-beauty game. The money held the power. The beauty followed the rules and jumped through the hoops.
The Bride
I knew what everyone would think if they knew the truth about my marriage. They'd be shocked and appalled. And rightly so. I was a young, modern, independent woman, and I'd done the unthinkable. I'd sold my virginity to a spoiled rich boy. To a stranger who didn’t love me. And yes, I'd done it all for money.
The Groom
My bride was as gorgeous as she was unwelcome. As desirable as she was unwanted. I wanted nothing to do with her, but that didn’t seem to matter exactly the second she got close enough to touch. I wanted her to hate me more than she loved the millions she’d sold herself for. I wanted to spurn her, but unfortunately, I wanted to f**k her more.
Arranged is a standalone erotic romance.

It's too late for anything else. But our impromptu wedding leads to so much more than I bargained for.

Story
It was a hot summer day when I met him on the construction site next to my parents' house. Under the sweat and dirt, Manning Sutter was as handsome as the sun was bright. He was older, darker, experienced. I wore a smiley-face t-shirt and had never even been kissed. I was too young, he said. I would wait. But I'd learn that no matter what you achieve in life, it means nothing if you suffer the heartbreak that comes with falling for someone you can never have. Because even though I saw Manning first, that didn't matter. My older sister saw him next.

Alasdair Masters is in a rut. He just hit forty and has been nearly celibate for the past year, and his life has turned into a daily sequence of lonely patterns that revolve around avoiding human contact. His tidy life is turned on its head when a hot, young blonde at the gym who's been pseudo-stalking him decides to rock his world. A very young blonde. Way, way too young for him. The problem is he can't seem to tell her no, and she just keeps coming back for more.

Story
I was done for. Profoundly screwed. The issue, of course, was my assistant, Devereux. She was slowly but surely driving me crazy. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Hiring her was supposed to bring order to my life. Instead, she’d brought disorder. Chaos. Irritation. Malaise. Comfort. Exuberance. Delight. I was obsessed with her. Truly, irrevocably obsessed. She was stubborn. Standoffish. Painfully honest. Take no prisoners efficient.

Vienna Stratton knew she only had herself to blame. You didn't let yourself become indebted to a man like Dane Davenport, no matter how badly you needed his help. As his personal assistant, she was very aware that the globally successful CEO was ruthless and unforgiving. Of course, if she'd known he'd request that she be his wife for 12 months, she'd have hesitated in accepting his help.

Story
How rough can you take it? Lourdes. He was brazen as hell from the moment I laid eyes on him. He was aggressive, and dominant, with Mack truck arms, and a bar brawler voice. He was too good looking for his own good, with a hard jaw, and harder eyes. I’d always led a fairly peaceful life, but even I could tell at a glance that this man was dangerous. For so many reasons. Not the least of which being that rough, dirty, sheet-clawing sex fairly radiated off him. I’d thought I’d known how to handle every kind of man, but this one left me baffled.

“Give me a second chance, babe . . . and I’ll blow your mind.” Monroe doesn’t know why she answers the text that’s obviously meant for someone else. Or why she keeps answering. Maybe it’s because she’s all alone in a big city and in desperate need of a lifeline. Or maybe it’s because each exchange leaves her intrigued and more than a little turned on. Still, Monroe never would’ve snarked back if she’d known she was talking to the “Golden Boy” of the Dallas Knights.

I never wanted a wife. No one is safe with me. No one is good enough for my daughter. But if I want to rule over the wealthiest crime family in New York City, I only have two weeks to find one. When Elsie broke into my home, I saw an opportunity, so I forced her into a marriage she didn't want. No one crosses me, not even someone as beautiful as Elsie. She may fight me with that smart mouth, but she will obey me–or return to the hell she came from. I told her she was mine for a year. Then she'd be free.

McKay: I wasn’t the one who broke her, but I helped. She came to us when she was 10. I raised her. I loved her. I taught her how to survive in a world of evil men. But it wasn’t enough. Adam: I wasn’t the one who saved her but I did my best. Bought and paid for on the auction block. But not for the reasons you think. She was my weapon. Donovan: I wasn’t the one who lied to her but I hid her truth. She was broken before I got there. Wild and angry. Defiant and bratty. But she trusted me most. She loved me best. So I set her free.

What I loved most about this contemporary novel…
The almost historical throwback premise / Engrossing & quick audiobook listen / Entertaining / An eclectic & intriguing mix of characters / Original / Well-timed steamy moments / Romantic / HEA / Epilogue
•*¨*•
My Top Favorite Reflection:
‘Life is full of giving, taking, borrowing, and moving on.
And balance.’ ~Noura
I ❤ how Noura and Banks eventually figured this out.
•*¨*•
Writing style: Dual POVs (Noura’s & Banks’)
Cover gush: The colors (purple and pink especially) are so gorgeous, and I love the overlay of images as well.
Collected in Dual Formats – Yes or No? Yes!
I own a copy in Kindle e-book & Audible audiobook as well.
•*¨*•
Characters:
Noura aka ‘Duchess’ – our 18-year old virgin heroine bride; an international model
Calder Banks Castelo aka ‘Banks’ – our older late twenty-something or early thirty-something (either his age never mentioned or I totally missed it) groom and hero; an entrepreneur and one of many male heirs to his parents’ fortune
Chester – Noura’s # 1 bodyguard and friendliest comrade-in-arms
Vincent – Noura’s quiet 2nd bodyguard
Jovie – an emancipated 14-year old female model that Noura takes in as a roommate
Diana Castelo – Banks’ mother; a former model now in her fifties and a warm mother-in-law
Pasco Castelo – Banks’ father; a very rich but relatively down-to-earth man born into a billion dollar empire
Asha – Noura’s assigned but ultimately vengeful personal assistant
Fatima Banks’ devious and vicious ex-fiancée

Ratings
Overall ★★★★★ It was the perfect listen and helped me get through a 5-hour session of laundry at the laundromat last Saturday.
Performances ★★★★★ each Jason Clarke and Summer Morton delivered flawless and fantastic vocal performances. I absolutely love this narrating duo!
It’s always a pleasure to hear them team up because both make great vocal acting choices and can do decent opposite gender voices – no easy feat! I am so picky about the latter skill. There are a couple of narrators that I loved early on in my audiobook listening / reading that eventually I got burned out on because I have a hard time listening to them do ear-grating opposite gender voice acting. So, it’s always a relief to discover male and female narrators who do both genders realistically well. I will always be eager to listen to either of these narrators on future audiobooks.
Story ★★★★★
I loved the unusually anachronistic concept of this novel. This wasn’t just an erotic novel with a few moments outside the bedroom thrown in for seasoning. Their fall into lust and then their gradual fall into love was fascinating to me, and I very much enjoyed the secondary characters and how they interacted with our heroine and hero.
I also enjoyed our hero’s stubbornness to win his lover’s trust and heart after things went south for them. My personal impression is that kind of determination is not common in a lot of Real Life relationships. It’s so much easier for couples to write each other off if there’s too much work involved to win the other back.
•*¨*•
Final thoughts:
This love story totally ranks among my favorites / reread worthy audiobooks. Bravo, R.K. Lilley, Jason Clarke and Summer Morton!
Fabulous narration & fantastic love story combined
