About this listen

Between her fast-paced career and managing her household for her family, Julia is always on the go. Her busy schedule leaves little time for her to pursue her own interests and hobbies, save for one activity: the gym she attends with her husband, Rob. The high-intensity classes they take allow her to destress, yet, as with every other aspect of her life, she constantly pushes herself to achieve her fitness goals.

Afraid his wife is at risk of burning out, Rob conspires with Tristan, one of the trainers at the gym, and forms a plan in order to encourage Julia to take a break from all her obligations. They present her with their scheme, informing her how she and Tristan will be staying at his family’s secluded lake house for a long weekend, during which she is under strict orders not to cook, clean, or answer any messages from work. As she processes everything they’ve plotted behind her back, Rob privately tells her he’s noticed her attraction to their trainer. To her surprise, he grants her permission to do anything she wants with Tristan during their weekend together…anything.

They embark on their trip, and Julia wonders if she’ll be able to disconnect from her responsibilities and relax for a few days. She also contemplates whether she can be intimate with another man, despite Rob’s reassurances. Will this weekend with her trainer fulfill all her fantasies?

Decent story, but I didn’t care for the narration.

After a harried week of works projects and home responsibilities, Rob sends exhausted wife Julia off on a rest weekend with personal trainer Tristan with his blessing and encouragement to do “anything and everything” she wants with Tristan.

Landen has penned an enjoyable and spicy first time hotwife story. Unlike many stories in this genre it does not focus almost solely on the hookup action, but rather it gives time and attention to setting, buildup of tension, and the reason Julia is on this retreat—relaxation. When the action does get underway, it’s hot and satisfying. I only wish the story could have included Rob and Julia reconnecting as she recounted her weekend adventure.

I didn’t really care for Aracelis Gotay’s narration. She has a pleasant voice, and her female characterization is fine, but her male characterizations completely pulled me out of the story. I would have preferred she use her own voice for all characters

Super short with spice

This was a short book with spice. I was a little thrown off by it being a book with cheating. Even with the husband being ok with it and planning the whole thing behind her back. I do have to say that by this whole thing her husband and trainer planned, I thought there would have been more to it. I don't know how things went after that weekend with Tristen. Did she return back to normal with her trainer after this. I know that she slept with her husband a few hours after being with Tristen. I just wish there would have been a little more that wouldn't have left me so confused.

The Narrator did an amazing job with this. When she did talk in the male parts, I could tell the difference in the husbands voice and the trainers. The Narrator did enough in the bad in her voice for me to tell them apart. She had a nice voice and read this role well.
