About this listen

Three years ago, Jacob Price walked away.

After a whirlwind steamy affair, my father's best friend broke my heart.

He told me things were too complicated. Messy. Wrong. That we could never be together.

I knew he loved me, but the fear of ruining our family was too great. With too much at stake, he sacrificed our hearts and ended it.

Now, he's back, and he still wants me. He still loves me.

But now, I'm engaged to another man.

From Q.B Tyler, author of Love Unexpected, comes an all-new age-gap forbidden romance.

Required.

Good. The female's attempt at a male's voice was ... laughable. Almost ruined it for me.

Fun read, lots of spice, good read if you can get past the narrator for FMC

Moves along at a pretty good clip, lots of spice, a bit unrealistic but that’s pretty common in this trope, the main characters were a bit unlikeable given how they act, the narrator for the FMC was like nails on a chalkboard and I almost couldn’t get through, very nasally and whiny, the MMC narrator was great

now THIS was a wild ride of taboo… and I loved it??
I was trying so hard to not root for the FMC & MMC, but their chemistry was SO good.
And the spice?? It was spicing honey

Good story

I liked the book but this author has a habit of starting her stories in the middle, which I don't like. The book would have been great if it would have started at the beginning of their love story.

I love this book and everything about it.

4⭐️ | 3🌶️

10/10 on the narrators. I literally couldn’t stop listening.

Q.B. Tyler has done it again!

If these tropes are your jam:
• Age gap
• D@ddy k!nk
• Second chance
• Forbidden romance
• HOT doctor MMC
• Dad’s best friend

…then stop what you’re doing and pick this book up right now. Seriously, it feels like this book was tailor-made for readers like me—and probably you, too.

Let’s talk about my absolute favorite thing: the MMC (aka, the hot doctor) knows from page one that he wants the FMC. There’s no back-and-forth, no hesitation—he’s all in, and he’s ready to do whatever it takes to have her. That level of determination? Swoon-worthy.

What unfolds is what I can only describe as a HOT, TORRID AFFAIR—and I mean torrid in the best way possible. It’s forbidden, steamy, and full of moments that had me hooked from start to finish. Q.B. Tyler just has a way of making forbidden relationships feel like the ultimate guilty pleasure, and this book is no exception.

I genuinely loved everything about this story. The chemistry was off the charts, the angst was chef’s kiss, and the pacing was so addictive that I flew through it in no time. Honestly, I was devastated when it ended—I wasn’t ready to let these characters go!

Do yourself a favor and read this ASAP because I need someone to gush about it with. Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one.
