Story
It was just one small hilltop in a small, unnamed war in the late 1990s, but it would send out ripples that are still felt worldwide today. The hill, in Lebanon, was called the Pumpkin; flowers was the military code word for “casualties.” Award-winning writer Matti Friedman re-creates the harrowing experience of a band of young Israeli soldiers charged with holding this remote outpost, a task that would change them forever, wound the country in ways large and small, and foreshadow the unwinnable conflicts the United States would soon confront in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere.

Kady Dresco and Colton Brooks click on a level that defies logic. There are only two problems. One, he's her older brother's irritating best friend, and two, they're bidding on the same military security services contract. When the competition heats up, Colton is torn between wanting to strangle Kady (and her annoying brilliance) and kissing her into submission. Which is a bad idea for a million reasons, because Kady's submission is exactly what he craves.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who dressed up and went to a big party at the palace. When she was there, she met a prince. They danced and fell in love. Damn good line. Too bad I don’t believe a word of it anymore. My name is Claire Montgomery, and I’m not a princess. I’m a fighter. I worked hard to earn my place on the emergency image repair team for one of the biggest public relations companies in the country. We’ve been called to the renowned Chicago headquarters of Stone Global Corporation, where it’s our job to clean up a heap of the Stone family’s filthiest laundry.

Worst Harlequin experience ever!
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
A different narrator.
What other book might you compare Public Affair, Secretly Expecting to and why?
The first book to this series, Hot Shot Tycoon, Indecent Proposal. It's about Mac's older brother.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
The accents were terrible. I would have preferred it if she would have just read the book in her normal speaking voice. Every time a conversation was being read it made me cringe.
What character would you cut from Public Affair, Secretly Expecting?
The narrator.
Any additional comments?
This was the first Harlequin Presents I've listened to and will be the last. In future I'll stick to reading them. It's amazing how a narrator can ruin what is usually an enjoyable read. Waste of a credit.
