About this listen

They say there are three things you should do at least once in your life:

Dance like nobody’s watching.
Travel the world.
And fall hopelessly in love.

I aimed to do all three.

I went to Italy to find myself.
But he found me.

It was like a story book, our eyes met across a crowded room. He asked me if I needed help reading the menu. We ate, we laughed, we danced, and I fell. Unfortunately, things didn’t go to plan, and we parted ways.

Two years later, our eyes meet across a room again.
Only this time I was on a date with another man.
He went crazy in a jealous fit.

But the man I met then is different now.
He’s colder, harder, and officially one of the most powerful men in Italy.
Dare I say it, even more enticing.

But if you dance with the devil, you get burnt.

And the fires in Italy are scalding hot.

I loved it!!

I loved the duet style narration. Such as great story, now I will need to re-read Ferrara and wait for the Audible version of it!! T.L. Swan never disappoints. Dane Anderson was a absolutely fabulous Enrico and Emma Wilder was a fantastic Olivia ❤️

Enrico and Olivia

The Italian audiobook. Multiple POV. The duet style audiobook took this story to the next level. Narrators Emma Wilder and Dane Anderson took on multiple accents and made each one their own.

Olivia meets Enrico while she's traveling. Their love story is cut short by the death of Enrico's grandfather and father. Sadly, Olivia returns home to Australia, and Enrico is forced to become the head of his family and all of their businesses in Italy. Enrico can't quite let Olivia go though....

This story is gripping, funny, and HOT. JP

Good male character narration

I love TL Swan books. She’s a great writer with good narration and character development. But this one left me flat with lots of holes. What happened to Francesca’s situation? What about Sergio breaking into the house? I usually love her characters but for some reason Olivia was super whiny, some on girl your with the Don! So much could have been better connected. Hoping the next one is better!

Wow! The narration will make this a best-seller

Dane Anderson’s voice! Both he and Emma did an outstanding job bringing this story to life, but I stayed up all night because of Dane’s deep voice and Italian accent as Enrico. When Enrico tells Olivia she better learn Italian because he only f***s in Italian… 🥵🥵🥵 I’ll be replaying that scene again and again. A well-paced, steamy romance with depth and well-developed characters. A must buy!

Almost 17 hours and worth every minute!

I love the way TL Swan writes because I always feel like I'm part of the story. That feeling just tripled with this audiobook. Amazing narration, incredible performance.

Enrico Ferrara is the stuff of dreams for me and one of my favorite TL Swan men. He's arrogant and possessive to the point of obsession, but his love is unconditional. Dane Anderson is perfect—from growly to man in love to the so-freaking-hot, bossy version of Ricky in the bedroom (and everywhere else).
Olivia is the epitome of a woman in love who desperately tries not to be. Emma Wilder is unsurprisingly perfect (isn’t she always?) in her delivery of Olivia’s inner monologues. She was also perfect at tackling both Olivia’s insecurities and the moments where her strength shines through.

Olivia is traveling in Italy, and she meets Rico at a restaurant. There's instant chemistry, and they end up spending the weekend together. It's not enough, but Rico's life changes, and he's no longer the man she knew. He needs to let her go. And she's left heartbroken and totally in the dark as to what happened.
Two years later, they haven't forgotten each other, and he finds a way to see her again. It may be over the top, but I love it anyway.

The push and pull between them feels very real with these narrators. Her love for him and her worries about him, what he does, and them together. The way he loves her and his inner thoughts, his and his family’s mistakes, his possessiveness, and how it’s always been her.

It was hard not to fall head over heels with Rico while reading. In audio, resisting him is not an option. I absolutely loved the way they tackled an array of secondary character voices and their accents, as well as the different emotions.

Be advised: this audiobook is a duet and almost 17 hours long, but it’s worth every minute and a must for any TL Swan fan.

Congratulations to Dane and Emma

Fabulous job in bringing these characters to life. Hooked me from the very first lines.
Thank you for your voicing this story. Reading is a problem for me right now due to terrible migraines. Bravo 👏 👏
