Publisher's summary

Named for her late father's most prized possession, Aston McNeil shares a deep connection with the classic car she inherited upon his recent death. When she learns her reckless stepbrother lost the car as collateral to Houston's most feared loan shark, she fights the urge to throttle him and vows to do whatever it takes to get it back.

Mechanic and mob enforcer Ben Beciraj can't believe his eyes when Houston socialite Aston McNeil storms into his chop shop and demands the return of the car he's just repossessed. He counters with a deal he never expects the fiery blonde heiress to accept - one week at his beck and call for the keys to her late father's favorite toy.

But Ben's plans to have a little fun with a girl way out of his league are shot to hell after one taste of sweet, beguiling Aston. When her stepbrother's shady dealings are revealed, Ben will do anything to protect her from the seedy underworld he inhabits - even if it means crossing the only family he's ever known.

Interesting Storyline

Aston McNeil is an heiress who finds herself squaring off against the Albania gang searching for her missing vintage car that belonged to her late dad. Her initial encounter with Ben leaves him amused and interested in her. This story is fast paced, action-packed with twists and turns.
Mary Jane Meloy does a good job with the narration.

Love this world!

I was so excited to see a new audiobook that’s loosely connected to the HRP series. The author has all these intriguing side characters and it’s great to see them take center stage. In this on rich girl Aston ends up dealing with Ben Beciraj, enforcer for the Albanian mob. Their interactions are steamy to say the least and while they come from different walks of life, you really want to root for them. This one ends in a HFN and can’t wait to see what trouble Collateral 2 brings for them!
The narrator was great and easy to understand, keeping the different characters voices distinct.

Fast paced and exciting

What do you do when the classic Aston Martin you inherited has a defaulted loan on it with the Albanian mob? Aston, named for her father's prized possession finds out exactly the consequences of such an act. Ben Beciraj, enforcer for the Albanian mob is there to take the car, but finds the feisty Aston there not willing to give it up so easily. Now placing herself as collateral for the week, we get to see exactly the payments required! Talk about action packed suspense and exciting characters! Roxie Rivera weaves her Russian Protector series in flawlessly, giving us looks at Nikolai and q quick mention of Sergei! I love when we hear about characters we are already familiar with, it gives an intimacy to the story. And this one is full of suspense and steamy scenes that will leave you breathless. A quick listen, but packed with a punch, so get your ears ready to be happy!

Mary Jane Meloy gives a wonderful performance. Accents, male and female voices and building of suspense, all key to this story and she pulls it all off with ease. An enjoyable listen!

dirty hot

I found it endearing to see Ben, the big tough guy, cave and show his soft side for Aston. I appreciated that he had standards and morales he upheld no matter what!!! Two aphrodisiacs-
chemistry and danger = fire 🔥. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life. Check it out.

Great story horrible narrator

The story was very good, but I ended up having to wait and read it without the narration. The narrator put weird pauses and emphasis on words that didn't require it.
