Publisher's summary

A sinfully sexy MM romance narrated in duet by Shane East and Joe Arden!

Lately, I’ve been full of questions. One hot summer night, I find all the answers when I kiss another guy for the first time. But he disappears, leaving me wondering who my mystery man was.

I can’t stop thinking about him. Even on the ball field, I’m daydreaming about his hungry hands, and the filthy things he whispered in his posh British accent.

Somehow, I still win one of the biggest games of my career, and afterward, the man surprises me with an invitation: “Meet me in a private suite.”

When I RSVP, he makes me an offer–one chance to try all the things I’ve never experienced. Then we’ll walk away. But once will never be enough.

Soon I’m locked into an intense lessons-in-seduction game with the secretive billionaire who keeps love at a distance, all while he pushes the boundaries of my brand-new desires.

Then, I learn that all my desires come with a terrible cost, as he breaks down the walls around my heart.

Rafe and Gunner

"𝑰 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒐𝒇 𝒚𝒐𝒖, 𝑮𝒖𝒏𝒏𝒂𝒓. 𝑵𝒐 𝒍𝒊𝒎𝒊𝒕𝒔. 𝑵𝒐 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔. 𝑵𝒐 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒑𝒑𝒊𝒏𝒈."

𝐀 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞, the third book in the Winner Takes All series by Lauren Blakely is Rafe and Gunner's story.

A glance at a nightclub and a sexy suggestive post on social media trigger a very filthy game of seduction between Rafe and Gunner. Both too consumed by their professions they agree to just a fling only to end up breaking down each other's walls.

Rafe and Gunner are so much more than I expected them to be. The book for sure lives up to its name and is very filthy and steamy. I loved the lessons that Rafe put Gunner through and when Rafe finally came to the realization that he could have both his career and Gunner.

Shane East and Joe Arden were perfect as always and make a great pair narrating together and the fact it was duet narration made it even better.

Get ready for... mm, billionaire, sports (baseball), first times, forbidden, exhibitionism kink, strangers to lovers, and dual first-person point of view.

𝐀 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞 has a heat level of 5 flames and gets 4.5 maple leafs!

5 Oh So Hot and Sexy Stars!!!

Well, #EADEN is back and they’re better than ever in this newest MM book from Lauren Blakely. We’ve met both of these men in previous books so getting an entire book where these men are in my ears was truly a pleasurable experience.

Gunnar and Rafe connect at a club and let’s just say that their chemistry was magnetic. Rafe is a man that knows what he wants and when he sees Gunnar, he’s very drawn to him and would like nothing more than to explore what he knows would be a coming together that he’s not experienced in a long time. And to say Gunnar is on the same page is putting it mildly.

I love how their story built up and the flirting that was both sexy and fun at the same time. There’s somewhat of an innocence about Gunnar and Rafe is the man that can teach him oh so many things and I was there for each and every one of them LOL!!

I loved that the book is told is duet narration as it absolutely lends to the electricity that’s sizzling between our H/H. I was absolutely captivated by the story Ms. Blakely has written as well as the narration that is pure perfection.

Rafe and Gunnar are back!! 💜💜

Rafe and Gunnar are back!

If you're a fan of Lauren Blakely's books, you might recall she wrote the novella Thirst Trap a while ago. That's where we first met the billionaire mogul and cocky pro baseball player. Their eyes meet across a crowded club, and there was an instant pull. Well, Lauren has expanded the novella into a full-length novel and given us more of this unforgetttable couple.

When Rafe and Gunner's eyes connect across a crowded club, there's an immediate pull between them. Both have very busy and demanding careers, and there just isn't time to devote to a full time relationship. Neither can stop thinking about the other, so they agree to a set timeline to be together, they they walk away. Yeah, right!

I can't say enough about this story, and I certainly don't want to say anything that would spoil it.
The chemistry between Rafe and Gunnar is off the charts, and their sexy time together is so, so, so hot! When they're together, everything else seems to fall outside their bubble. They're determined to keep things casual between them, while trying to ignore what's blooming in their hearts. This is a wonderful series, and I can't wait for what's coming up next.

Shane East and Joe Arden, affectionately known as #Eaden, narrate this complicated story of two men who are so drawn to one another, yet are fighting their feelings with their need to protect their hearts. This will definitely be a story I'll listen to multiple times.

Shane & Joe are fire !!

I ordered this story because I sooo enjoyed these two narrators in A Guy Walks into my Bar.
These two guys have Chemistry and sex appeal working together as no other!
They both once again provided the great chemistry and sexiness and made it enjoyable… but
The writing in this story was… Meh, it didn’t match these two awesome guys
The story had no depth and I didn’t like that majority of the story was the push and pull of why they couldn’t be together, and only a few chapters at the very end of deciding we can make it work.
Also it was pretty short compared to many of her other stories
Still a decent read
