About this listen

Mila Ali's fiance Warren is killed in a corporate plane crash. Grief wraps around her heart and soul - cushioning her to the outside world and the reality that is now her life. Warren had been many things to her: friend, lover, and even a part-time savior. After spending too many years working too many hours for a large corporation, Mila was able to let go and love Warren, even at the expense of losing her traditional Somalian father's favor.

Nothing could have prepared her for such a devastating loss, yet the fragile bubble she has built around her heart is shattered when Mila comes face to face with Blake Baldwin - billionaire, womanizer, Warren's boss...and the owner of that fateful airplane.

Blake Baldwin is too handsome for words, with a body that could melt hearts and a piercing stare that cut through Mila's every defense. The encounter seems to ignite a fascination in the enigmatic billionaire, one that sends him to the beautiful Somalian's door again and again....

Mila is not looking for love - been there, done that, but Blake will not rest until Mila Ali is his. He thrusts her into a frenzy of confusion, deception, and passion. Blake just may be the bandage Mila's wounded heart and neglected body needs, or he could be the biggest heartbreak of all.

Contains mature themes.

Just DON'T DO IT!!!

It's not just the monotone narration or the questionable plot. From the point where the male character fantasized about his dead friend's/employee's fiancee AT HIS FUNERAL, it went down hill for me. The male character's behavior felt manipulative and predatory while the female characters/widow swung between sadness, to being comfortable ruled by her libido. I am taking a break, right here at chapter 9, not sure if I will be back.

Love good lust book

So. I love a little smut like the rest of them. But no one wants to read a story about a man cumming on a woman’s face. That is not appealing in no way constantly a man talking about cumming down her throat.

I was pleasantly surprised! 3.5 sly stars

Thanks to book 2 of this series leaving audible on the 4th, I finally buckled down and read it as I was about out of time. Boy am I ever glad I did. In the end, I didn’t listen half as much as a frantically flipped through my kindle. I could not wait to see what happened next as this book was FULL of intrigue and mystery. A lot of which remain unsolved but I’m assuming will be done so in book 2.
Let me preface this next part by admitting: I am picky about my narrators! I have long standing favorites and am enthralled with the tenor and cadence of their voices. The different layers and inflection have hooked me in to read just about anything they narrate. So all of that being said, I didn’t care for either narrator: Ryan Turner or Lacy Laurel. Neither did it for me unfortunately so here’s to hoping the next set on book two are different.
The H in this story I don’t like at all at first. He came off as your typical F-boy to a T. He slowly came around and changed my perception thankfully. He is still a bit of a mystery and I THINK everything is on the up and up but not positive…Blake is a tricky character with many layers. A great one was when he turned a little Alpha. I love a possessive H.
Then we had Mila, our h who had a heart as big as Mississippi. Good intentions and al aye putting everyone else’s needs before her own. Unfortunately, people in her life see this and take great pride in using this against her. She has morals and also a wall up as she list her fiancé and came to an epiphany after he’d passed.
The story takes you on a slightly darker romantic journey with tons of who dun it times thrown in to keep it spicy. Speaking of, those scenes were hot hot hot for sure. The book definitely did not lack for that.
All in all a really good book to take me out of reality for awhile which I loved. I’m officially a fan of Amarie Avant and will always read just about anything she produces.

Had some issues but still enjoyed

This is my second book by this author. She’s a good writer, sometimes she throws hurdles that make it difficult to love every character.

I liked that the heroine was East African and dark skinned because there isn’t a lot of color or ethnicity diversity with black women in romance.

I just didn’t connect to the hero(he slept with many outside of the heroine which made their intimate times less special, had even slept with her sister at one point) sometimes there was slut shamey language I didn’t love, and whether it was intentional or not, very cishet anti-lesbian/ff rhetoric(probably wasn’t aware her comments were such).

I liked it but not enough to give it a five.

IT KEPT GETTING BETTER!!!!

A new favorite. As this book reveals itself you discover your first impression is not quite what you think. Love the dynamics of "Blake" and when I almost hated him I fell hard for his character. You will love the ride😃.
