About this listen
From best-selling author Kandi Steiner comes a fresh and captivating billionaire romance about a reserved photographer and the powerful CEO who has to have her....
My boyfriend’s billionaire boss always gets what he wants.
Menacingly handsome and unquestionably powerful, Theo Whitman need only snap his fingers to have a flock of supermodels fall at his feet. So when his steel gray eyes first meet mine, I expect him to pass right over me, to not give so much as a second thought to my presence.
Instead, he sees me.
Truly sees me.
And for a girl who prefers to hide behind her camera lens, it’s the most unnerving experience of my life.
Until he asks me to stay on his yacht for the summer.
All I have to do to earn my keep is be Theo’s on-call photographer when he has guests, and I’ll get a free ride through the Mediterranean with my boyfriend. Easy peasy.
Still, my skin prickles in warning when I say yes.
As the humid days fade into balmy nights, I can’t seem to avoid Theo. And when he finds me, it’s like a rabbit running into a wolf.
His intense gaze immobilizes me. The way he speaks strips me bare. Every brush of his skin sears me like a violent flame.
My boyfriend’s billionaire boss always gets what he wants.
And this time, I think he wants me.

Story
The first time I met Hudson Rothschild was at a wedding. I’d received an unexpected invitation to one of the swankiest venues in the city. Hudson was a groomsman and quite possibly the most gorgeous man I’d ever laid eyes on. He asked me to dance, and our chemistry was off the charts. I knew it wasn’t a good idea to get involved with him, considering the wedding I was at. But our connection was intense, and I was having a great time. Though the fun came to a screeching halt when Hudson figured out I wasn’t who I’d said I was.

I tried to stay away from Tyler Wagner, putting an entire country between us. But when his sister’s wedding brings us back to the same town, to the same house, I can’t avoid him, no matter how hard I try. He’s always there, his dark eyes bewitching, luring me into their depths. The memory of us pulls me under like a rip current, and when he flashes that smile, I lose my breath, along with my will, unable to escape his grip and find the surface.

When I decided to surprise my family in Wellhaven, Vermont, for Christmas, I never could have known that I'd get a surprise of my own. I haven't been home in four years, not since I left this town with my eyes set on adventure. And my heart set on forgetting the only man I’ve ever loved: River Jensen, my ex-husband. I don't plan on seeing him during my visit. I definitely don't plan on him saving me when my little rental car slides off the icy road. And the last thing I could have ever prepared for is being stuck in a tiny cabin with him, waiting out the storm.

I can't think of a better way to use the season passes I'd bought for my ex-husband. I am a woman of plans, and this one's foolproof. Until Zach Bowen offers to be my practice round.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

See, I've been told I'm the "good time girl", not the one you take home to Mom. And while that label stung at first, I've since embraced it - living the wild and free life and sticking to a three-date max. That's just enough time to have some fun and snuff out the possibility of catching feelings. And it's been working for me for years...until Makoa Kumaka. Sadly, he also has a three-date rule - and it's the exact opposite of mine.

Maybe she was just mine to have.

What makes you happy? That was the question Emery Reed asked me the day we met, and I couldn't give him a single answer. I could have said my dog, or my books, or yoga - but I just stared. And then, I got in his car. It was crazy to take a road trip with a stranger, but after years of standing still, he was my one-way ticket to a new life, and I wasn't going to miss it. We shared the same space, the same car, the same hotel room - and still, we were strangers. One day we'd be laughing, the next, we wouldn't speak. Emery was surrounded by impenetrable walls, but I wanted in.

That night when we crossed paths at a college party, we only had one goal: to feel good during our hell storms. After we parted ways, I’d planned never to see him again. That was until I showed up for my first day as a student-teacher and found him sitting right there before me.

The plan is simple: a brand-new, hot, preferably funny, definitely single male will fill one of those seats for every Bears game at Soldier Field. And I'll fill the other. I can't think of a better way to use the season passes I'd bought for my ex-husband. I am a woman of plans, and this one's foolproof. Until Zach Bowen offers to be my practice round.

Story
If Renn Brewer would’ve asked me to marry him, I would’ve said no. Why? One, his reputation precedes him. His name is in the headlines at least once a month. Two, he’s not just my brother’s best friend. They’re teammates. And three, I’m in my self-care era. Unfortunately, a version of me equates self-care with bad choices.

Sleeping with the NFL quarterback who the media has dubbed Mr. Perfect might not have been the smartest move, but I’m in the City of Love, I’d had a few drinks, and was jacked up on giddy girl talk and hopeful hearts—two things I never buy into—and I threw caution to the wind. I want to sneak out before he wakes up, but when I open my eyes, he’s already up. In more ways than one.

Love, love, LOVE!
Aspen is so relatable, and I LOVED Theo. It’s a weird one, I typically don’t find myself for someone to cheat, but I was totally dying for these two to finally be together. (Sorry Joel, but you’re the worst).
This is such a good and refreshing read/listen, and I cannot recommend it enough. The heat. The angst. The locations. It’s ✨everything✨
Also, 10/10 for narration. Absolutely smashed it!

Romance at Sea
This book was very different than I anticipated. Aspen boards Theo's boat with her then boyfriend Josh. I had a really hard time at first because Josh was such a jerk and I couldn't fault Aspen for being drawn to Theo. I wanted to throw Josh overboard most of the time! I loved watching Aspen and Theo tow the line and when they were finally able to pursue something it gave me all the feels. This was a good read, it just took me a while to get into the story.
The narrator did a great job bringing this story to life.

Beautiful Story!!
I just finished listening to this beautifully written, emotional story that I adored. The narration and performance by Hannah Chiclana was fantastic. This story is emotional, full of angst and inspirational. I couldn’t wipe the tears fast enough as I got to the epilogue. This book is an epic love story! A true must read/listen!

I Want a Theo!
To say that I loved this book would be an understatement. I loved everything about this book. I loved the writing and I loved the narration. It’s the first time that I have ever heard Hannah perform. I am used to listening to audiobooks with duel performances. This girl has so much talent that it didn’t matter to me that there wasn’t a male voice in the audiobook. She made everything sound like perfection. The only negative that I would say is that she did pronounce a few words incorrectly. That doesn’t take away the fact that she did such a beautiful job. She boosted what was already a wonderful story.
This is the first novel that I have read/listened to of Kandi’s. I did listen to the Christmas Blanket, which I loved, but that was more like a novella. I didn’t even realize how talented she is until I listened to this story. It drew me in from the prologue. I read a lot of these types of books, and I will say that Theo is now one of my top 10 favorite book boyfriends. (It might also have something to do with the fact that I love Theo James. 🤣) Aspen is also easy to like because she’s so kind and so willing to sit back and let others get the glory. I’m so glad that she gets her happy ending because she so deserves it. I can’t say more about this book without giving away the story so I’ll just say.... Use a credit and listen to this audiobook! You will not be sorry! I don’t usually listen to my audiobooks again, but I will definitely listen to this one more than once.

Good story
I did enjoy this book and the narration is good except, call me nit-picky, but the pronunciation of Nice (France) is Niece. It drove me crazy every time hearing it said wrong, but seriously it wasn't enough to not enjoy the book and narration. Would recommend to give it a listen.

Age gaps >>
Theo and Aspen had a simmering heat that gave me so much angst, that by the time they connected, it was explosive. I don’t normally care for the cheating trope, but this made sense with the story, and it was gritty and real. The ending was insane, and I truly enjoyed the audio. Hannah Chiclana was FABULOUS!

A Great Age-Gap with a Swoony Billionaire!
“I’m growing tired of this game, Aspen.”
“What game?”
“The one where you pretend like you don’t want me...And I pretend like you’re not already mine.”
Review: I have been wanting to read this book ever since it came out. I am always drawn to pretty covers. The blurb sounded good, but I was a little weary of possible cheating as I'm not a fan of it. This book turned out just fine and I really enjoyed it! It is single POV, which I generally struggle with, but Kandi does really well with single POV. Aspen is a photographer planning to travel around Europe and take photos for her portfolio while her boyfriend works on a yacht for the next few months. Theo is a Billionaire and is getting ready to set off on his yacht for business meetings along the Mediterranean. Aspen meets Theo on his yacht where she is leaving her boyfriend for the summer. Theo is instantly intrigued by Aspen and offers her the opportunity of lifetime on his yacht. As they work together and continue to get to know each other, they both feel the undeniable pull between them. I loved these two. Theo could truly see Aspen and not the front she put on for others. I love that he cared, wanted to get to know her better and help her. I could relate so much to Aspen, as a photographer and as someone who struggles like she does, it pulled on my heartstrings. So much wisdom, which I am finding in Kandi's books, and truly loving. I feel like I am learning how to improve my life through her words. Kandi does such a beautiful job explaining the scene that you feel like you are there. I shed a few tears and swooned so hard. Theo is an absolute dream and is respectful. I worried he was going to be going after Aspen dead set to steal her away, but that was not the case. I definitely fell for Theo and want to steal him. I listened to the Audiobook by Hannah Chiclana. This was my first by her and after the first chapter I was completely sucked in. I really enjoyed this one.
