Ten years ago, I broke the heart of the girl I loved, and she ran from me, never giving me a chance to explain, leaving me devastated.

Now Lottie is back and working in my club. Which gives me the chance to put things right. I know she's hiding a secret, but I can't walk away. When she enters an auction to sell her body, I refuse to let another man touch what is mine.

I offer her a way out, a marriage of convenience that will benefit us both. The contract says we'll stay married for a year. But she was mine then, she's mine now, and I'm never letting her go again.

When I was young, Lincoln was the hero in my story. The boy who promised me forever. Until the day I found out it was all a lie. Now, ten years later, he's the villain who holds my future in his hands.

Drowning in debt and determined to protect the one person that means the world to me, I agree to auction off the one thing I have left to sell: my virginity.

With no place to hide, I face the man who still makes my pulse quicken. But I have demands of my own. I'll give him my body for a year, but he'll never have my heart again. And he can never find out the truth of what happened ten years ago.

Contains mature themes.

The male narrator was not a good fit. Also, I felt like this book was trying to be/do too many things. Just not sure I would recommend.

Just Not It

I absolutely loved this! Both narrators were great. Elle and Christopher were an amazing duo, but I absolutely adored Elle’s narration! She was perfectly what I expected Lottie to sound like if she were real.

The story…they both lost each other by keeping some serious secrets from each other. I’m so glad that they were able to get past them. I just hate how much Linc hurt Lottie throughout the entire thing. Lottie had this amazingly huge heart and was able to forgive him. I’m so glad that she made him work to win her back and didn’t cave in to him after the first sorry I didn’t mean it.
Definitely a book to get lost in!

Loved the chemistry and the back story between Lottie and her man, but the male narrator sounded too old for the age of the character.

Story was good. Male narrator sounded too old.

I loved the book but the male voice was weird. At first then it grew on me.

Loved the book.

Overall the book was good and I’m not sorry to have spent a credit on it. Took a while to get past the male narrator for this book. I have to say, the female narrator did a much better male character. It also was a bit slow at times.

Good

The mmc voice is distracting; too high pitched for the character. The overall performance for the characters, in general, seems more storytelling and less first person.

This is second time reading, but this time I listened the audio. This is one of my favorites. it will never disappoint.

I'm only on chapter 5 and I hate the male voice. He sounds like a version of Mike Lindell. It's ruining the story because I can get over the sound!!! Avoid this and read the actual book if you can! if you've read the book and liked it, I imagine you wouldn't want to listen to it either, as it probably will ruin things too. So I guess just avoid the audio book altogether. I do a lot of driving and prefer audio books, so it's too bad because it seems like a story I'd like, but there no way I can listen to that voice and think anything remotely sexy!

horrible male voice
