About this listen
Nikolai Alexei Young was born with a special gift...one he'd do anything to lose. The heart and soul of every person he comes into contact with is an open book to his heightened senses. Colorful emotions, whispers of thoughts, the sour tastes of old memories.... He feels them all. The sci-fi books would call him an empath. For Nikolai, his ability has made him an exile. He roams the US alone, avoiding the glut of life in big cities, and using his innate talents to win money in underground poker games. Just enough to keep going, one town to the next. He has no hope that his life can be anything else, until he meets her....
At 19, Fiona Starling was trapped in an ugly, desperate situation until she freed herself the only way she knew how. Now three years later, living outside Savannah, Georgia, she is rebuilding her life on her own terms; seizing every moment and saving every penny so that she might fulfill her dream of moving to the raw wilderness of Costa Rica. But behind her carefree smile beats the heart of a lonely young woman haunted by her past, until a chance encounter with a tattooed stranger changes everything....
Fiona takes Nikolai under her roof for three sultry nights, waiting out the rain of a summer storm. She grows more and more fascinated by this brooding stranger with whom she shares an intense physical connection - a connection so strong, she wonders if there is something between them beyond lust and passion. Nikolai is shocked to discover that Fiona calms the raging turmoil in his heart. She alone silences the din of other people's lives, and envelops him in the sweet beauty of her inner self. Every moment he's with her - every touch of her skin - brings him closer to the peace that's been eluding him his entire life.
But Fiona harbors secrets that she is too terrified to reveal. After Nikolai confesses his unique ability, she is caught between wanting to believe him and fearing he'll eventually unearth her own dark past. When the unthinkable happens, Fiona's plans come crashing down, and Nikolai discovers his hated ability might be the only thing that can save the woman he loves.
Contains mature themes.

I fell for Connor Drake. I didn't want to; I fought against it, but I fell in love with him anyway. With his words. With his poetry. With him. The gentleness and beauty of his soul that speaks directly to mine. He writes as if he can feel my heart, hear its cadence and compose the exact right lyrics to accompany every beat and flow.

The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia. At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I’d always envisioned. I’d found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key. You see, my favorite songs had a way of playing simultaneously. I was in love with one man’s beats and another’s lyrics. But when it came to the soundtrack of a life, how could anyone choose a favorite song?

“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.

Love this series
This series was great. I loved the special abilities the men have and how they found their ways in the world and with themselves. More please. Please!
With this particular book tho I had trouble with Fiona being a little too whiny and emotionally weak. You can be passive and insecure with yourself because of emotional trauma and be strong at the same time. I was frustrated with her lack of support and belief for the man she loved. Believing in psychic and seeing auras shouldn’t have been such a negative thing.
Joe Arden was spectacular as always! I enjoy books he narrates and seek him out. Unfortunately Caitlin Kelly just added to the weakness of this character’s personality and I switched from audiobook to kindle when it came to her chapters.

Do you believe?
I have to admit that I bought this audiobook on a whim and I’m so glad that I did! This unusual story about two people who are tortured by the past was riveting. The hero, Nickolai, is psychic and has been trying to cope with hearing everyone’s emotions by traveling constantly all over on his motorcycle. The heroine is a young woman running from her husband who has verbally beat her down until she hears his voice in her head all the time telling her how she doesn’t measure up. They meet by accident at a club and she takes him home, where he finds that she quiets the chaos when he’s with her. She starts to see that she’s more than what her husband told her so often. Can they make a life out of a one night stand? Great narration as well.

An exquisite journey!
This is a powerful narrative about two people who, despite being broken and unsure of themselves, find each other create something beautiful between them. The writing is highly evocative -- you feel everything they do. If you are wrestling with similar demons, you just might find some closure, or perhaps move closer to peace. Emma Scott, thank you for writing this. You are phenomenal!

Sugar & Gold was everything I hoped it would be
Each time Emma Scott creates a new novel, and new characters, I am so grateful that I will be treated again to her magical talent- and she NEVER disappoints! Sugar & Gold was everything I hoped it would be and MORE. Her writing is so captivating- and so emotional- and her characters are so well-developed. Nikolai and Fiona..... what a journey! I always find her books impossible to put down- they are the ones I binge read, on an absolute tear to keep discovering what comes next, and then, once that's done, I go back and re-read at a calm pace so that I can soak up as much of her magic as I can. I know that I will re-read this one again soon- it was just that PERFECT. Joe Arden and Caitlin Kelly were fantastic!

Good but a little slow at times
I enjoyed this book. I liked the aspect of the gift Nikolai has. I think Fiona reaction to his gift was a little over the top and irrational. I liked the HEA. Steamy 4 star listen.
