About this listen

From New York Times best-selling author Penelope Ward comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

Growing up, the three of us were friends. He was the nerd. I was the playboy. She was the beauty.

Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits.

He lied.

I went off to college, and he got the girl. Amber never knew how I felt. They were together for years - before he broke her heart.

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch. When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men. One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings. Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy - curiosity.

Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message. She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend - me. But she considered me off-limits - and she thought I was a man-whore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel. When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she was stunned to see me standing there - with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse.

I enjoyed the dynamic of this a lot. Its comfortably average, but it was a nice listen because it was well written. I do feel like there could be a larger use of vocabulary which was a little annoying, and the guy who voiced Channing I feel like his voice didn't match and I just envisioned a really old dude from Texas that drinks whiskey all the time. Other than that it was a good listen.

A Very good listen! Couldn't tell for awhile what exactly a Gentle 9 was - but when you do, it's an intregal part of the story. The narration was good, easy to decipher between the characters. Listened to in 3 days.

Another great story! From childhood friends to so much more! I loved the story of Channing and Amber. How they ended up finding each other after so many years and even still Channing watches out for Amber and how they fall in love. I absolutely can't forget Kitty! Loved the audio as well!

I love these narrators. Anything with Sebastian York. He would be sexy reading the phone book.
The story had twist and turns I wasn't expecting but keep the story fresh. I'll definitely listen to more of Penelope Ward.

Good read

The characters drew me in right away, and Amber was very believable. The plot was different from any other book I've read. I highly recommend this!

Beautiful story!

This book turned out to be a nice surprise.
It has enough twists and turns and angst to satisfy the listener.
All the characters are very likable. Three friends, different and similar at the same time, dealing with their feelings, disappointments, losses and every day life.
There were 2 themes in the story that usually are not subjects of romance of today - autism and encroaching dimentia. Although these are difficult subjects they were not dealt in a heavy handed way and did not take away from the story but rather were part of the story. Some parts were sad to listen to but not devastating.
The narrators Andi Arndt and Sebastian York are as usual amazing.
