About this listen
Destroying other people isn't going to make you feel any better.
That suggests you've never destroyed an enemy before. It's actually quite fulfilling.
EMMY
Elliott Springs has small-town values, cobblestone streets, perfect scenery. These are things I don't care about. What I do care about: Revenge. And no matter how compelling I find Liam Doherty—the guy focused on saving Elliott Springs—I'm going to get it.
LIAM
What do you call a woman who wants to destroy everything you love, yet the sight of her sets you on fire? Nemesis or future wife—and since she can't wait to leave California, I guess I know which one she is.
Emerson Hughes wants to be the villain in our town's history, and the more I learn about her past here, the more I understand it.
I wanted to save Elliott Springs.
I think I want to save her even more.

Story
He was my boyfriend’s best friend—and the bane of my existence. I wanted to hate Luke Taylor. I did hate him. I just never hated him enough. Now, a decade later, tragedy has brought us back to the place where it all happened—my best times and my worst. Our lives have changed, but that pull between us is just as strong as ever. Only this time, it’s more dangerous too.

Keeley: Last January, I drunk-married my nemesis—hot, oversized geek Graham Tate. With no memory of how it came about, there was only one solution: run off before he woke up and pretend it didn't happen. It would have worked perfectly if I hadn't wound up pregnant. Graham is the opposite of everything I want in a man—practical, disciplined, frugal—but living with him until the baby arrives has me wondering if, perhaps, I've been wanting the wrong things all along.

Lennox Kennedy is beautiful, loud, and the love of my life. She's also my ex-girlfriend. The first time I saw her after ten years apart, I slammed into the plexiglass minutes before our game was set to begin. The second time I threw up. The third time's a charm apparently because as my fiancée and I walked into an appointment to meet the woman hired to plan our nuptials—there she was again. Obviously, I did what any smart man would do—I called off the wedding. I don't have a plan per se, other than winning back the only girl I've ever loved.

Still married. Those words change everything. Now my should-be ex-husband, Ramsey Stockton, the former pro football star turned felon and hero who left this town—and me—behind years ago, is at my door offering me a deal with the devil. If I let him stay and play his wife again for ninety days, he’ll give me a quiet divorce and his family ranch—the one my inn is on. When I scoff at the idea, he offers a million-dollar bonus to help my business float through this rough patch, but only if I’m his.

The risk blindsided me five years ago when I lost one of my crew and was changed forever. Now the only rewards I allow are to work harder, smarter, and enjoy easy, sexy nights with strangers. Until I meet Prescott Timmons. Her smart-mouth and adventurous spirit have me forgetting all of my rules—until her past shows up and lies start to feel too familiar.

In Fiasco, Kentucky, there is one rule: never fall for a Foxx brother. Any woman who did, ended up dead—or so the rumor goes. Townies call it a curse. But I’ve lived it, and I won’t survive it again. I’m not a cop anymore, but I’ve seen enough danger to know that Laney Young, the beautiful stranger who just showed up in my small town, is running from it. She’s lying about where she came from and what she’s doing here. I don’t want her near my family or the quiet life I’ve made for myself. But my brothers have other plans.

Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Unfortunately, the circumstances behind that have never been my story to tell. But now, the truth is out, and I’m left to deal with the consequences. I’m living under the same roof as Weston, and each day, I discover a side of him I never expected.

Hayes Flynn is an arrogant jerk known best for his scotch habit and the way he spreads his British “charm” all over Hollywood, never with the same woman twice. He’s the last person I want to work for - except he has a face I can’t look away from, and the longer we’re together, the harder he is to hate. Because under that smug exterior is a heart he doesn’t want to show - one that was badly broken a decade earlier. A part of me wants to fix it for him before I leave…but can I do it without breaking my own in the process?

Never did I think it would lead me straight into the arms of a serial killer. When the magazine I worked for sent me to write a piece on The Elysian, and the recluse architect who created it, I didn’t know what to expect. It certainly wasn’t him. He was supposed to be cold and cruel, but to me, he was Intoxicating. Magnetic. And impossible to quit. The deeper I fell, the harder it became to ignore a voice inside my head telling me that death followed Cain. I wanted to be wrong. Maybe it was all in my head. But I needed to find the answers. Nothing prepared me for what I found….

Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

I’ve spent the better part of the last few years successfully avoiding my brother’s best friend, Weston Aldrich. As CEO of Andes Inc, the infuriatingly handsome and incessantly grumpy Weston also happens to be my new boss. It shouldn’t have been hard to continue avoiding him. After all, he’s on the executive floor, and I’m one of many copywriters. Weston has his own ideas about how things should go between us. He’s in my emails, leaving notes on my desk, and as if that’s not enough, he arranges for me to accompany him on a business trip.

Story
Marrying Beckett Coleman is the best idea I've had in years. I can grant my sick dad’s wish to walk one of his daughters down the aisle, and Beckett has my help solving a custody situation with his daughter. Our plan is to spend a year together, then part ways. Easy, especially since I'm not his type, and he's not mine either. He’s too quiet and too serious. And while he’s distractingly gorgeous, he’s also my brother’s teammate. Beckett is fake husband material, not the real deal. I just have to remember that.

But I knew I needed to let him go. It was over. We were never meant to be together. Just like everyone else, he left. I couldn’t handle touring with his rock band and a relationship.

🔸Elizabeth O’Roark does it again!🙌🏼
🎧Duet narration:
𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐚 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐦𝐨𝐨𝐫
& 𝐉𝐅 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠
𝐓𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐬:
🔘Enemies-to-lovers
🔘Small town
🔘Reverse Grumpy sunshine
☀️⛱️☀️
Emmy Hughes despises her hometown, Elliott Springs, and harbors a burning desire to obliterate it along with the people who tormented her in the past. However, her plans encounter resistance from an unexpected source: Liam Doherty refuses to let her get away with it.
✨Thoughts✨
This is the second time Elizabeth O'Roark has made me love the story's supposed villain. This novel stirred a wide range of relatable emotions, from heart-wrenching to soul-stirring.
🔸It was easy to sympathize with Emmy's thirst for revenge. The town of Elliott Springs had become entwined with her traumatic childhood experience. And despite there being reasons for her to be rotten to the core, she was kind. Even with her grumpy disposition, there was something uniquely endearing about her. As for our MMC, Liam, he was the epitome of the dream man. He was able to be Emmy's friend, able to see beyond all of her walls, and that right there was just too precious!
🎧Let's take a moment to appreciate the exceptional narration by Samantha Brentmoor and JF Harding. Their duet narration effortlessly brings the story to life. They are the perfect team!
🔸Overall, if you are a fan of small-town romance and don't mind a heroine who enjoys a bit of revenge, then this audiobook is an absolute must-listen!
My rating: 5⭐️
Spice level: 3/5🌶️

Tropes:
☀️ Enemies to lovers
☀️ Workplace Romance
☀️ He falls first
☀️ Slow burn
☀️ Reverse grumpy x sunshine
Such a fun listen! Samantha Brentmoor and JF Harding did soo well here! I loved this audio so much 🥹 this book evoked so many emotions. I felt so much for Emmy and her trauma. She went through things that no one ever should ever have to go through. Her backstory was so heartbreaking. It was so great to see her take charge, cut off toxic family members and start to heal. I loved seeing Liam come into her life and show her how she deserved to be loved and be that source of sunshine for her! This is part of a series of interconnected stand-alones and I have not read any of the others, I still loved this! I will absolutely need to check out the rest of this series!

ALC REVIEW
Another absolute banger from Elizabeth in addition to being narrated by Samantha Brentmoor, whom I love dearly and the way she embodies Elizabeth’s female characters. JF Harding was the perfect Liam to tie this story together 👏🏼 This story does have some sensitive topics, that I thought were handled with incredible care and extremely relatable feelings and experiences. Emmy is back in her hometown of Elliot Springs to take care of her mother while also on a warpath of revenge to bring down those who created a mockery out of her childhood and were relentless bullies. Liam is the contractor hired to help Emmy with her construction plans, with who she has been texting back and forth with over the course of the initial stages on planning. While she finds Liam incredibly compelling via text, things start off on the wrong foot when they finally meet in person. I love Liam’s determination for his town, but also for Emmy. This man went to bat for her so many times even against herself and really showed her what unfiltered, unconditional love actually is. Emmy is not perfect by any means, and that’s what I loved most about her, she is real, she is hurt, there is life long trauma stemming from her god awful mother and this town that has led her to operate the way she does. I am so glad I got to listen to this book, and will always scream from the rooftops how much I adore Elizabeth and her books.

Awesome Story & Listen🎧Captivating & Heartfelt!
Wow, what an amazing start to Lisa Suzanne’s “Vegas Heat: The Expansion Team” series, the story hooked me in right from the start and captivated my attention the entire time. It is a sports romance, and the series follows the same couple, Cooper Noah and Gabby Grant, who meet in Vegas. Gabby was out with friends celebrating her twenty-first birthday and Noah, a former professional baseball player, was in Vegas to see a friend about a job opportunity. Noah had injured his elbow, not a career-ending injury since he was all healed, but when his contract was up, he did not get back in the game. His friend, Troy Bodine, the manager of Las Vegas’ new baseball team, offered him a position on the team and he said he will consider it. Back at the hotel, he stopped in the casino to play cards and the night got even better when a gorgeous woman sat at his table. It was her first time playing in a casino and he offered to help her and the two hit it off like no other and instead of going out with her friends she spent the night with him and since he was only in Vegas for thirty-six hours, she spent as much time with him as possible. The chemistry between these two was smoking hot, an insta-love connection despite their twelve year age gap, a connection so strong that he signed the contract to play for the Vegas Heat. I loved how everything played out in this book, the writing, plot and world building are fantastic, as are the character growth and development. This is a fabulous first installment of the series, one that leaves you wanting more, especially after that ending. Lisa Suzanne, thank you for this wonderfully entertaining story and emotional rollercoaster ride
🎧📚🎧 Aiden Snow and Stephanie Rose did a fabulous job bringing these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each a voice that was fitting and was believable in every role. Snow’s Cooper was swoon worthy and Rose was equally amazing in her role as Gabby, both grasping every aspect of their characters’ personality and they were fabulous performing the roles of the secondary characters too. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their performance elevates the story to another level. Thank you for another wonderful listen.

Beautiful, poignant, and sizzling romance!
This poignant and breathtaking story captured me, pulling me in right from the start and never let go! Emerson (Emmy) Hughes is on a mission when she returns home to Elliot Springs, the small, quaint town where she grew up. She is determined to come in and shatter the lives of those who made her life unbearable. But things are not always as they seem, and she especially learns that from Liam Doherty. She never saw him coming, and he makes her see things differently. Liam loves his town and he wants to save it. But as he sees life through Emmy's eyes, he wants to save this broken woman as well. But Emmy already has events in motion, and plans to leave when she's finished. Will she go through with her original plans or will Liam be enough to change everything?
I love beautifully broken characters that make me fall hard for them as they heal and grow. I loved how O'Roark masterfully weaved this story, slowly revealing Emmy and Liam's past along with heartbreaking secrets that had me completely mesmerized and consumed by this addicting story. Emmy quickly leaps onto the pages and makes you want to root for her even when you don't understand her motivations. Liam is so swoony being sweet and thoughtful one minute and deliciously dirty the next.
Samantha Brentmoor and JF Harding gave flawless performances as they brought these characters and their story to life. I loved their portrayals of Emmy and Liam and they absolutely nail their banter, and their growing emotional connection. They clearly conveying Emmy and Liam's strengths and vulnerabilities as they learn to trust and open up to one another. They conveying so much emotion in their performances, making my heart race from beginning to end.
I absolutely loved every moment of this beautiful, poignant, and sizzling romance!

📚Story Summary and Review📚
This book was so incredibly good, yet so heart-wrenchingly difficult to read. Emerson’s journey was one that broke me. I actually had to take a break and come back to it because it wasn’t just the town she destroyed—my heart hurt so much for her! Emerson carries so much hate in her heart, a result of the trauma she experienced growing up. The body shaming, the unhealthy habits, and the downright abuse she endured, was so crushing.
Emerson was so broken and angry, and it’s no wonder. Nobody ever showed her how to be happy or feel loved and wanted; she grew up under the oppressive shadow of her own personal "Mommy Dearest." Despite all that darkness, I absolutely loved how Liam stepped into her life and showed her that there is still good in the world. His presence helped her begin to see that she is worthy of love and happiness.
Though this book was heavy, it’s a beautifully written story about growth, forgiveness, and the importance of showing up for yourself with brightness at the end of the tunnel.
🎧❤️Audiobook Review❤️🎧
I loved JF's portrayal of the broody and protective Liam; he perfectly embodied all of Liam's goodness and light. Samantha brought so much emotion and depth to her performance, especially during the flashbacks as we learned about Emerson’s history. Her delivery was heavy with emotion, capturing the complexity of the character beautifully. I very much recommend experiencing this one in audio—both narrators really delivered an incredible performance!
**These are my own honest thoughts that I have provided voluntarily. I purchased this audiobook.

Infinite stars!
I think I can honestly say that while I thought Beck and Kate were my favorite couple until now, Emerson and Liam have completely eclipsed them. This book hit me in every single one of my feels for so many reasons. I am entirely convinced that no one writes a character arc the way that Elizabeth does. She has such an innate ability to make the most unlikeable characters, likable. The black cat Emerson comes back to her home town to exact all the revenge on everyone who bullied her and anyone did her wrong growing up. Deserving or not, Em was out to get them all. That is, until the golden retriever Liam turns her world upside down. Emerson has the toughest exterior while being debilitatingly self conscious internally. My heart absolutely broke for her from the first page because you could tell that beneath that hard exterior there was just a hurt girl in there that could never let go of the insecurities she was plagued with her entire life. I related to her character so deeply that I couldn’t not have been happier to see her story play out the way that it did. Liam was everything she never wanted but definitely needed. I love this series so much, each book just gets better and better. Infinite stars!!!
