Nick Vitale, devilishly handsome, forbidding - and heir to a billion dollar fortune. Keyonna Hayes, beautiful, success-driven and ripe for love and passion beneath her ambitious shell. Blackmailed into marriage to the insufferably rich and gorgeous Nick Vitale, Keyonna is determined to teach him a thing or two about love which he so despises. Only things never really go as expected... Soon intrigue, heartbreak and betrayal ensue and Nick and Keyonna fight to regain a love that was always destined to be theirs.

Story
Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

But when her beloved firm merges with a repulsive rival, Liv finds herself competing with her sort-of-ex for the top job. Sure, Finn had been Liv’s best friend, with his nerdy good looks and their shared love of Tolkien, but there was that one night, their song, and … well, she doesn’t like to talk about it.

The best Burke/Laramie book ever!!!
WOW! Burke really out did herself with this one. The smex! OMG! Blush** Blush***
Nick and Kiyona gets married... arragement that leds to passion of course... typical Burke book... But.... the smex between these two was the best ever... Burke goes back and forth with the POV in this one... which I think add to the story.. So we can see what is goin on in both Nick and Kiyona's head.
Great story, good drama.. and Awesome Smex!
Narration is subper. I really think Laramie is best suited for Burke's books.
Great Credit, Sale or Buy!

I Wish I had been Trapped into Marriage by Nick...
What made the experience of listening to Trapped into Marriage the most enjoyable?
The flow of the story kept me intrigued with wanting to know what would happen next.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Nick, his sexiness was evident from the beginning, lol.
What does Pepper Laramie bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I felt like was actually in the story itself
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When Nick finally realized that he was in love with Keyonna.
Any additional comments?
Dez Burke is a very talented author. I have read just about all of her books and I plan to remedy that within the next couple of months.

I want more of stories like this
If you could sum up Trapped into Marriage in three words, what would they be?
Steamy, Love, Heart
What other book might you compare Trapped into Marriage to and why?
I would compare it to Skin Deep. I love both books and the length. I wish Dez would do more books at this length. They both were perfect and developed well.
What about Pepper Laramie’s performance did you like?
I really like Pepper Laramie's voice and how she executes the characters. I believe both Pepper's and Muffy Newtown are great voices for Dez Burke's books. I don't know if I will listen to another book by another narrator.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I really like the part when Nick came back for his good night kiss and he ended up pleasing his soon to be bride. I really like this part because it showed how deep his love was for her because he put his lust on hold, to satisfy her. He waited until after they were married.
Any additional comments?
Dez, I really love your BWWM romance books where their is an Alpha male. I just wish you had made your other books (Claimed by a Marine, Seduced by a Football Player) longer. I read those books first, they were good but I felt I didn't get my money worth. But when I purchased Trapped into Marriage and Skin Deep, I couldn't believe it was you. You really know how to develop a good BWWM love story, I love those two books and recommend them all the time. Please keep writing books at that length, it really shows your talented writing skills.

Pretty good story
Would you listen to Trapped into Marriage again? Why?
Yes, I thought the author did a good job. Articulate and well written. I like how the characters were developed and I love Keyonna more than anyone in the story. The author did such a good job describing Keyonna's pain that almost felt like it was my heart (almost).
Who was your favorite character and why?
Keyonna. She is such a sweetheart and I love how supportive she is. I love how she treats Nick. Nick is also a favorite character of mine because of us self-assurance with
What about Pepper Laramie’s performance did you like?
Good job, although I didn't too much care for Nick's voice, but I can forgive her for that.
Any additional comments?
I hastily judged this author before I had a chance to hear this book. She was articulate and did a very good job creating a picture with just enough detail for the reader. I really hoped the book would last longer than 8hrs, but what can you do after Nick finds Keyonna?
I love the relationship between Keyonna and Nick. Also, THANK YOU for not creating a male character with no back-bone. Finally, a male character who has not been emasculated. I love how sure and strong Nick is, love his character

sorry I just can't...
the two leads are INCREDIBLY unlikeable! I hate giving bad reviews and rarely if ever do but I don't think I even made it past the 3rd or 4th chapter before I called it quits. the main characters HAVE to be likeable at LEAST IN order for me to finish the dang book! UGH!!!
