About this listen
Ariana
Betrayal. The pain and rage that consumed me was unbearable. My perfect reality had become my hurtful one. Loss of illusion settled inside me and constricted the air I breathed. I felt as if my entire life was a lie. Fresh out of law school, I needed a new start and to put the pieces of my life back together. When I left Boston and moved to New York, I met Luca Russo, a high powered, sexy attorney who liked control. He took me under his wing and did things for me no other man had ever done. Everything comes with a price, and mine was falling for a man who couldn't return my affection. Then one night tragedy struck and he needed my help. That was the night I became his defense.
Luca
There wasn't anyone or anything I couldn't control. I thrived on it. It made me who I was. Some called me ruthless because I played dirty in the courtroom, and some called me a man-whore because I liked to sleep with women but refused to give them anything more. I was a 30-year-old man with the world at his fingertips. I had a successful career that I loved, a luxury apartment on Park Avenue, and the company of any beautiful woman I wanted at any time. Then Ariana Williams walked into my firm and left me breathless. The chemistry between us was undeniable. But I had a past and a secret I never wanted her to know, so I had to walk away. Then one tragic night I needed her, and now she holds the fate of my life in her hands.

Story
By the age of 30, I had suffered more tragedies in my life than anyone should ever have to experience. Even though I ran and owned a multi-billion-dollar enterprise that I saved from bankruptcy, had more money than I could spend, and lived in a high-rise penthouse on Fifth Avenue, my life was still desolate and empty. I closed off my heart and myself to everyone. This was my life until a woman named Zoey Benson crossed my path. For the first time in over five years, I felt something. A feeling that I had long buried deep inside me. A feeling I never wanted to experience again.

Story
My name is Delilah Graham, and music is my life. I moved from Chicago to live in the one place that I considered to be the center of the universe: New York City. At 23 years old, after raising my two brothers and sister, it was time for me to start my own life. I worked as a waitress in a greasy diner by day, and by night I performed my music in small clubs around the city and on the streets of New York. That was until a man and his daughter stepped into the diner and changed my life forever.

Story
I made a promise not to sleep with my new personal assistant. Too late. I’d already slept with her before I knew Grayson, my human resources director, hired her. Long story short. We first met at a café when she let me have the last apple turnover. Then I saw her again that same night at a bar. She was incredibly sexy, and she wanted me as much as I wanted her. We both agreed it was a one-time thing, and she left the following day. Imagine the shock on both our faces when she showed up for work on Monday. I wasn’t a relationship type of guy and for good reasons.

Story
I grew up wealthy and was given everything my parents wanted me to have. After years of being molded into the perfect daughter, I played a role. I was only what they wanted me to be. My parents controlled everything. My life, my friends, my career, and even the man I was supposed to marry. When I stood in front of the mirror and looked at myself, the person looking back was a total stranger. Leaving my fiancé at the altar on my wedding day was the start of a journey I embarked on in search of the person that I truly was.

My name is Emily Wade and I was raised to believe that happily ever after didn't exist. That relationships were doomed before they even started, and that as long as the attraction to someone is purely physical, life is uncomplicated and good. I lived by that and was probably the only anti-relationship person in the world. I found myself in the midst of so much man drama that I decided to take a hiatus from the dating world. Until I met the brutally handsome CEO of Caine Property Development & Management, Jackson Caine.

Maybe she was just mine to have.

Men. They all come from the big genetic whirlpool of dysfunction central and their brains are all wired the same when it comes to women. “I’ll text her when I get around to it, in a day or two. Three if she’s lucky.” From one failed relationship after another, I made it my mission to get inside the heads of men to find out what really made them tick when it came to pursuing a woman. My goal was to help women take their lives and their power back when the guy they liked behaved badly. I wanted to empower them by teaching the concept of #Delete.

Have sex with a stranger in a foreign country. It was on my list. It was something I'd never done before, and I wasn't sure if I could go through with it. But I did. That one night was the best night of my entire life. He was sexy, intense, and made me feel things I had never felt before. The next morning, the thrill was over, and he was gone before I woke up. What happened in London should have stayed in London, but it didn't. I was never supposed to see him again, but the universe had other plans.

Less Sex and More Substance
I like legal procedure stories, but the timelines were not realistic. You don't go to trial on a double homicide quickly and then spend all that time not preparing but having sex. Those who like erotica and less plot will enjoy this. I liked what it could have been with more plot development. Arianna may have been smart, but easily manipulated. Would liked to have known the whole story on her family. For a smart Harvard grad, she was too stubborn to hear her loving extended family's explanation. Not sure I liked either of them completely.

Sweet and exciting
Sandi Lynn always writes really hot books but this one was more on the sweet side and definitely more on the legal side. I enjoyed it. It was exciting and I finished it in one sitting, not wanting to turn it off. The only issue I did have was that I did felt a slight drag in the middle but after that hump, it was great and I loved listening.
Veronica Worthington was fantastic. Perfect for this character. Very serious when she needed to be, very sexy when she needed to be. Her pacing was on target and her tone was great. I have less accolades for Tyler Donne. His voice sounded a little too old, which would be ok but he would pause is weird areas and then not pause between narrative so I would never know when a character changed speaking. It made it difficult to follow along. But overall the narration wasn't too bad.

So much potential ***Spoiler Alert***
This story had so much potential but it was hard to ignore the parts that were just unrealistic.
First of all what lawyer in their right mind would buy so many lavish gifts for someone that he directly hired directly promoted and ended up sleeping with?!?! and even though as far as to hire her has his attorney for a murder trial even though she's fresh out of Law School.
and let's talk about that trial. there were so many legal inaccuracies that it just blew my mind. I'm not even a lawyer and even I know the way she obtained evidence is just not possible. high-profile case or not there is no way a murder trial would be tried within a few weeks of an arrest.
the story had so much potential but it was very very hard to ignore all of these inaccuracies. I like getting lost in the books picturing it as if it were happening but that's impossible to do when most of the storyline is just unrealistic.

Almost liked it
I liked the general plot ideas, but the plot details and the writing style had me rolling my eyes too many times.
The sexy times were kind of PG.
The male narrator was okay. The female narrator talked way too fast and lacked emotion.
**SPOILERS**
A partner in a prestigious law firm is charged with murder, and he hires a lawyer who passed the bar the week before? [Eye roll.]
The lawyer with no court experience decides to "wing it" with their opening statement and not write it down, despite the pleas of the client who is also a famously successful trial lawyer, and she shuts down the conversation with "Don't you trust me?" [Eye roll.]
Etc.

The most incompetent attorneys ever written
I have tried starting this review several times, but words fail me. I know this is fiction, but if you are trying to portray a great defense attorney, you should at least try to make him/her more credible.
I believe that a regular person with no background whatsoever into law who has watched any TV show that includes a murder investigation would have done a better job than the lawyers portrayed in this story. The behavior of the characters is simply not believable. And not even the sexy times, which at some point shouldn't even be happening under the characters' circumstances, seemed forced.
The whole thing was ridiculous.
I would not recommend this audiobook.
