About this listen
An age gap, heroine in danger, small-town romance from bestselling author Stephanie Rose.
I ran from danger and landed here in Kelly Lakes, hoping to put my past behind me. I didn't expect to almost faint into the arms of a cop upon arrival.
You know the type. The one with the heart of gold and bedroom eyes.
Mike is also seven years my junior… and my new boss's son.
It doesn't matter if our chemistry is immediately undeniable. Or if I catch him watching me with pure yearning on his handsome face. I'm not looking for a relationship after what I just survived.
It's a good thing Mike swears up and down he doesn't believe in true love.
Except he goes out of his way to protect me, to understand me. To keep me safe every time I feel afraid. He's chasing away the dark shadows that linger, even in this idyllic town. But as our electrifying passion burns hotter, the danger I thought I'd escaped returns, leaving me with an impossible choice.
Stay with the man I'm falling helplessly in love with or leave to keep him safe?
This small-town, slow-burn-to-fireworks romance has a heroine on the run, a steamy and dangerous interlude by the lake, and a younger, sexy cinnamon roll cop who will stop at nothing to protect the woman he loves.

Story
My new neighbor happens to be the grumpiest billionaire in Whispers, but his gravelly voice and golden brown eyes make this city girl weak at the knees. When my life imploded and I lost my job and my fiancé in a matter of weeks, I didn’t know what my next step should be. Then I received an inheritance that would change my life forever. Moving to a small town and renovating the old farmhouse was a step in the right direction. But bickering with my startling good looking, yet much older neighbor was not part of my plan.

Story
I never expected to inherit a sprawling estate in a small town I’d never even heard of. To claim it, I have to outmaneuver my scheming cousin and fulfill one impossible condition: Find a groom. Enter Ledger Timberbridge—the infuriatingly charming stranger I crossed paths with on my solo (read: canceled) honeymoon. Now, he’s here in Birchwood Springs, fighting to save his family’s struggling logging company. And somehow, he’s probably my only shot at keeping my inheritance.

From the moment my twin sister set her eyes on Matteo, she decided he was the one. We were just kids, but that didn’t matter to her. In her heart, she believed they were destined to be together. So when their arranged engagement was announced, no one was surprised. At least, that’s what I thought. But lately, something had felt off. Wherever I went, Matteo was there. Lurking in the dark, concealed in the shadows, always watching.

I never thought I’d be a runaway bride. But when it came down to it, I just couldn’t marry the wrong man. So, I ran. And somehow, I ended up in Star Falls, Colorado—stranded, no luggage, no plan—in a wedding dress with a past I’d rather forget. Fate lands me in the only available rental in town, a cozy little cabin… right next door to Byron Miller, the brooding billionaire who wants nothing to do with me. Or this town.

I'm willing to admit that I shouldn't read spicy scenes in public. But in my defense, the opportunity rarely rises elsewhere. As a single mom and farm owner, my time is stretched thinner than horse hair. Besides, I'd reached a pivotal peak in the story and couldn't put it down. That is, until someone bumps into me. My phone launches into the air like a base hit, but the device is caught before smashing into the ground. It comes as no surprise, considering the guy is a professional baseball star.

At least…that’s what she keeps telling herself.

I'm not supposed to want my ex-boyfriend's dad. But after one scorching night last summer with a sexy, older man who instinctively knew how much I wanted to be called his “good girl," I can't stop thinking about him. Of course, back then, I had no idea who Gideon was. Still, we both agreed that one night was our only night. Our lives were too complicated for anything more, no matter how much I craved it. Then our paths collide again at my ex’s fundraiser. That’s where I learn the truth about who Gideon really is.

I should have known everything was going to change when she walked into my tattoo shop... Timid as hell and gorgeous to the extreme. I knew better than even thinking about touching a woman like that. My life is dangerous. My calling wicked. Willing to cross any line to protect the innocent. I thought I’d never see her again until my little boy tumbled and busted his lip, and I found her working at the doctor’s office. The woman who’d taken possession of my thoughts. When it becomes clear she’s in trouble, I offer up a deal.

I've always been a good girl, a rule follower. At least until I started working for billionaire bachelor Knox Crawford. Owner of LA's pro soccer team. And my ex's dad. The more time we spend together, the harder it is to fight our growing attraction. And the easier it is to forget our roles, to ignore the fact that I used to date his son. Sleeping with the boss could get me fired. But sleeping with my ex's dad could tear my life apart. Breaking the rules only seems fun—until you get caught.

Story
My name is Hunter Jordan, lead singer of Hammered and no, I didn't name my package Manaconda. Rolling Stone did. On the front cover of their damn magazine. I still haven't lived it down. And now our record label wants to maximize the frenzy. So, I have a brand new PR person–Kennedy McManus. And she's making me insane. I don't know whether to ignore her, yell at her, or push her up against the wall and kiss her smart mouth shut.

I never thought I'd be stupid enough to lose the best thing that ever happened to me. But I was. And I did. Thea still owned my thoughts, my dreams, and my heart. I never expected to see her again, much less have to work with her for almost the entire summer. Every minute we're together, the air crackles between us. Everything I still feel for her, that I'll always feel for her, reflects back at me in her gorgeous golden eyes.

Story
The annoying jerk my parents forced me to play with as a kid grew up to be a sexy, grumpy baker who still can’t stand me. Sure, maybe I enjoy our bitter banter, his cocky smirk, his chocolate chip cookies. But there’s a reason I can’t play nice. You’re wondering why—if I hate the guy so much—did I agree to be his fake date to his cousin’s wedding? Look. Just because I love being a pain in the man’s well-formed butt doesn’t mean I want someone else torturing him. Especially not the ex-fiancée who left him for his best friend.

Story
Total control. I need it in every aspect of my life. Some would say that makes me an asshole. A freak. But as long as everything's exactly how I want it, I'm completely flexible. I'm kidding. Okay, I'm not kidding. Lacey needs someone in her life who's bigger and scarier than her demons, and she wants that man to be me. Her boss. The Viking in a suit. I hope she understands what she's getting into. This daddy isn't going to pat her on the head and tell her she's a good girl for nothing. Especially not when she's spinning out of control.

Agent Bradly "Wolfe" Tucker has one case he cannot solve: six murdered women and a cold trail leading nowhere. When bodies with an eerily similar MO show up in Philadelphia, he volunteers to assist with the case. He figures he will spend a few days in Philly, hand the case off, and head back to his life in Seattle. But everything changes when he stops at a local bar, looks across the room, and sees her. Agent Leda Bailey has had a bad week. She has three dead women and no trail to follow. The clues don't add up, and nothing makes sense.

Narrators Rose Dioro and Sean Masters are superb storytellers! They embodied these characters perfectly, bringing them to life so clearly. Their ability to convey such emotion from the dramatic to the funny, from panic to passion, and all the sweet moments in between was superb. They helped to make this breathtaking love story even more captivating!
Breathtaking, passionate and addictive story!

Narration: 🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧 (0-5)
Overall: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (0-5)
Steam: 🔥🔥🔥☄️(0-5) I bump up for public places/outdoor spaces. Life is better at the lake! ❤️🔥🥵🌶️
What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 First person dual POV with fabulous narrators. Sean Masters is such a great voice narration of Officer Mike Russo—so strong but soothing/gentle. Rose Dioro is fabulous at all the emotions as Lila—such a perfect blend of sweet, sensual, a little bit scared, but also strong. They are both really, really good at being two voices in the conversations and intimate moments.
🤩 Slow burn that Lila totally needed in this small town of escape.
🤩 Small town goodness, including some fun landladies!
🤩 Meet-cute but caring.
🤩 I’m always begging for a little bit of reverse age gap.
🤩 The sweet friendship building is so beautiful.
🤩 And it makes a delicious contrast to the dirty talking we get from Officer Mike Russo. Love it! So hot!
🤩 I love when Lila calls Mike Mikey—it’s just so fitting and cute.
🤩 I enjoy a little suspense romance plot—this one has a little twist and kept me interested the whole time.
🤩 This book hit me just right and captivated all of me, which I very much needed during a very busy time in my life with last few weeks of school, a college graduate, and a high school graduate. Thanks to the author for the gifted copy of the audiobook. I found the ebook on Kindle Unlimited.
What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 Nothing except take me back to Kelly Lakes. I did miss Raising the Bar, which is on my TBR and I’ll definitely need to bump up. I loved and highly recommend An Unexpected Turn and Starting back, which I read out of order and very much appreciate them being true but interconnected standalones.
Small town, dirt talking police officer, suspense

Mike is sweet, protective, and falls hard for Lila, who is starting over after escaping a toxic ex. Their relationship builds beautifully from friendship to something more, with plenty of tension, family drama, and well-crafted suspense. The age gap is there but never feels awkward, and Lila’s tough Philly side makes for some great moments.
The narration is phenomenal, and brought the story to life in the best possible way.
If you love romance with strong characters, a little heat, and a dash of suspense, this one’s a must-read!
Captivating!
