Two lovers strive to trade a grim past for a bright future in this story of bittersweet yearning.

Tina Jenson belongs to the same social stratum as Harris Chapman, but he’s out of her league - at least that’s what she thinks before they jump in bed together. It’s the perfect night, but when she overhears crude, hurtful comments the next morning, she can’t get away fast enough.

Ten years later, Tina’s life is a mess. That night with Harris didn’t just hurt her feelings; it started a cascade of disappointment and heartbreak. Every time she bumps into Harris, her heart twists inside out. She still wants him, but she’s harboring a painful secret from their night together that she’s not ready to reveal.

Crossed signals, high-society whispers, and shame have kept Tina and Harris apart for years, but deep down, they’re hungry for each other and eager to write their own rules. Can they let go of the past and find their way back to each other, or are the barriers between them too high and too strong?

Hot romance!

The story line was nice but the narrator “mail” voices were awful - especially Harris’s voice. The narrator made him sound breathy and it was so unbelievable and annoying.

Not quite there

the narrator's voice for the male lead sounded like a serial killer, no inflection

just couldn't listen anymore

I really liked the book, I laughed a few times, got emotional and the detail in it made me picture it all as if I was watching a movie.
My only problem was I felt like the monologue was boring, short, one worded conversations followed by so much narrative detail. I would’ve loved to have the characters speak genuinely. I never felt I understood Harrison when he was talking because it was so abrupt and monotone.
Just my opinion, the book was worth the listen though

Binge-worthy for sure

Natasha Anders knows how to tell a story. Her characters have depth. The narration was also well above average.

Great

Natasha Anders is one of my favorite romance authors but this book is my least favorite. The main characters and story just weren't very compelling. To be honest I am having trouble putting my finger on just what was lacking. I guess I am just simply disappointed. I expected better. That said, I would however recommend any of her other audio books for a good romance listen.

Put this on 1.1 speed when listening. Narrator is generally fine, but not my fav. Generally good, but story kind of drags out.

Good but slow

Damn. Anders writes grudges and grovelling soooo well. The prologue to this book is *chef’s kiss*. This is one of my favourite romance novels of all time. But I bet it’s pretty tedious for many. Readers that are used to extroverted, Barbie doll, prozac-level-happy, female protagonists need not apply. This story is about a difficult woman, the mfc (Tina). She isn't the flirty catch-me-if-you-can kind of difficult. Or the 'self righteous social warrior' kind of difficult. Or the 'I’m gonna make this guy wait on principle' kind of difficult. I think Tina has a personality type that’s pretty much unacknowledged in romantic literature: the secretive, skeptical, cautious, aloof, walking wounded. This is a woman of average strength, with no deep friendships, no real accomplishments, and no big goals. Small mistakes/failures make her withdraw and spiral (this is how you write an introvert). Tina has family, yes, but not a supportive one. She has a bff, yes, but keeps her on a pedestal so ends up giving WAY more than she gets. She has money (inheritance), yes, but what is wealth without a plan? Nothing but a non-renewable resource. And to top it all off Tina’s personality is ruled by a single defining tragedy. I've never read a character like Tina in this genre. I’ve read all kinds of broken women: hard-knock-life broken, catatonic broken, straight jacket broken. I've read criminally broken. I've read abused broken. But never read this kind of nuanced 'normal' broken. This mfc moves through the world tight as a fist, taking hit after hit after hit. Her emotional discord is her WHOLE personality, but she hides it so well. No one knows her.

I really got off on how justifiably mean Tina was to the mmc (Harrison) for half the book. It was all so raw and honest. But also kind of melancholy. And I loved how deeply (persistently) apologetic the mmc was.

This book reads better the second time around because of its timing. It's driven by a BIG SECRET, which you can kind of guess, but the amount of time it remains unspoken really starts to irritate. I deducted one star for the last 30min which was painful. The mfc never broke type. She remained hesitant and cautious with her lover. She let him OVER grovel, when the man had paid his dues and then some! I wanted to see her truly optimistic for the first time. I wanted a big confident declaration of love, some spontaneous affection, and - dare I ask - a little playfulness. But this book is subdued to the very last sentence.


Queen of the grovel!

For the Male voice, they should had use a man. the profanity was unreal in the female voice trying to sound like a male.

The narrator voice not believable

So very disappointed in this work of Natasha Anders . I’ve read the reviews and decided to buy/read it anyway because, you know, it’s Natasha Anders. I should’ve skipped this one.

Regardless, still a fan…
