About this listen
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Mariana Zapata’s most beloved book, The Wall of Winnipeg and Me—now with new exclusive content!
Vanessa Mazur refuses to feel bad for quitting—she knows she’s doing the right thing. The thankless job of personal assistant to the top defensive end in the National Football Organization was always supposed to be temporary. She has plans for her life, and none of them include washing extra-large underwear one more day for a man who could never find it in him to tell her good morning, congratulate her on a job well done, or wish her a happy birthday—even when she was spending it working for him.
The legendary “Wall of Winnipeg” may be adored by thousands, but after two years Van has had enough.
But when Aiden Graves shows up at her door begging her to come back, she’s beyond shocked. Mr. Walled-Off Emotions is actually letting his guard down for once. And she’s even more dumbstruck when he explains that her job description is about to become even more outrageous: something that takes the “personal” in personal assistant to a whole new level.
What do you say to the man who is used to getting everything he wants?

Aurora De La Torre, or Ora to her friends, knows moving back to Pagosa Springs, Colorado, a place that was once home and is now full of bittersweet memories of her late mother, isn’t going to be easy. Starting your whole life over probably isn’t supposed to be. But after breaking up with her longtime famous musician boyfriend, hiding out in a small town in the mountains might be the perfect remedy for a broken heart. And checking out her landlord who lives across the driveway just might cure it, too. Only Tobias Rhodes didn’t rent out the apartment to her, rather it was his teenage son, Amos.

Story
Luna Allen has done some things she would rather no one ever know about. She also knows that, if she could go back in time, she wouldn’t change a single thing. With three sisters she loves, a job she (mostly) adores, and a family built up of friends she’s made over the years, Luna figures everything has worked out the way it was supposed to. But when one of those secrets involves the man who signs her paycheck, she can’t find it in her to regret it. Despite the fact that he’s not the friendliest man in the world. Or the most patient.

Story
If anyone ever said being an adult was easy, they hadn't been one long enough. Diana Casillas can admit it: she doesn't know what the hell she's doing half the time. How she's made it through the last two years of her life without killing anyone is nothing short of a miracle. Being a grown-up wasn't supposed to be so hard.

If someone were to ask Jasmine Santos to describe the last few years of her life with a single word, it would definitely be a four-letter one. After 17 years - and countless broken bones and broken promises - she knows her window to compete in figure skating is coming to a close. But when the offer of a lifetime comes in from an arrogant idiot she's spent the last decade dreaming about pushing in the way of a moving bus, Jasmine might have to reconsider everything.

Worst case scenario if things turned awkward between us, I could go somewhere else. I’d gotten over epic heartbreak before, one more wouldn’t kill me. After moving to Austin following six months of unemployment back home, Iris Taylor knows she should be glad to have landed a job so quickly... even if the business is owned by a member of the same motorcycle club her estranged father used to belong to.

Before he was “Big Texas,” he was “Zac the Snack Pack". Bianca Brannen knows time - mostly - heals all wounds. Including those your once loved ones might have unintentionally given you. (Those just take longer.) She thinks she’s ready when a call has her walking back into her old friend’s life. Or at least, as prepared as possible to see the starting quarterback in the National Football Organization. Before the lights, the fans, and the millions, he’d been a skinny kid with a heart of gold.

When the man you worshipped as a kid becomes your coach, it’s supposed to be the greatest thing in the world. Keywords: supposed to. It didn’t take a week for twenty-seven-year-old Sal Casillas to wonder what she’d seen in the international soccer icon—why she’d ever had his posters on her wall, or ever envisioned marrying him and having super-playing soccer babies. Sal had long ago gotten over the worst non-break-up in the history of imaginary relationships with a man that hadn’t known she’d existed.

Some days, all you need is a message from a stranger. Ruby Santos knew exactly what she was getting herself into when she signed up to write a soldier overseas. The guidelines were simple: one letter or email a week for the length of his or her deployment. Care packages were optional. Been there, done that. She thought she knew what to expect. What she didn't count on was falling in love with the guy.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Story
The proposition is simple: if ER nurse Claire Harper and her roommate, firefighter Graham Scott, are still single by the time they’re forty, they’ll take the proverbial plunge together…as friends with benefits. Maybe it’s the wine, but in the moment, Claire figures the pact is a safe-enough deal, considering she hasn’t had much luck in love and he’s in no rush to settle down. Like, at all. Besides, there’s no way she could ever really fall for Graham and his thrill-seeking ways. Not after what happened to her father.

Zanders: Chicago hockey isn't complete without me—everyone's favorite player to hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

Fine—a little thing and a big, grumpy thing. She needs to improve her game behind the net, and she needs help from Luke Ryder. Ryder is six-foot five, built, opinionated, rude . . . and sexy as hell. But he's still the enemy.

Great Zapata Slow Burn
I am a Zapata super fan, I’ve read and listened to all her books multiple times. I was excited when she was releasing this edition of Wall of Winnipeg with dual narration. Originally I wasn’t sure how I would feel about a female narrator other then Callie Dalton, but Emma Wilder is always fantastic. I do enjoy Stephen Dexter, but didn’t love him for Aiden.
I truly just do love this story. Zapata slows burns are always worth it. Wall of Winnipeg is one of her very best!

My favorite slow burn
This was my first Mariana Zapata book and even a couple of years later one of my absolute favorites.
I’m a sucker for marriage of convenience, extremely slow burns and friends to lovers and this book delivers.
I now own the ebook, physical and audiobook format. I love all three. The narration in the audiobook is fabulous.

Amazing narrators!
I absolutely adore this book and listening to it on audio was so much fun!!
It was my first dual narration audiobook, and I loved every minute of it! Having two actors do the dialogue and act everything out really made the story come to life.
The Wall of Winnipeg and Me was my first Mariana Zapata book and remains one of my favourites. If you love sassy FMC’s, men who screw up and grovel, marriage of convenience, slow-burn and/or sports romances, this book is for you!

Perfection Again
Everything Mariana Zapata writes is perfection. No one can tell me any different. Of course I’ve listened to the previous version and was hesitant when this came out but now I just ask myself why I would ever doubt the Queen. Both are amazing. Can’t wait to hear the new version of Rhodes now!

Ouf…overrated
This just wasn’t for me. The male lead is very one dimensional, language is repetitive and to call it a slow burn is an understatement. I finally skipped ahead to when they get together and sorry but it was cringy. The only thing I liked about it was the female lead. Wasted a credit on this one for sure…

Duet narration. This was a struggle.
The narrators were lovely. Absolutely no complaints. Duet narration was good. However I STRUGGLED to finish this book. I'm Canadian. I really wanted to like it. But it wasn't my jam. I felt like nothing happened? The plot didn't progress? And anything that would have been worth delving into happened off page. There was 1.5 spicy scenes towards the end of the book. They were ok.

Best and Worst
While the additions to the text are mostly aimed at « finishing » scenes that sounded incomplete in the original edition, the narration in this remake is both a blessing and a horror. A blessing because although a great actress who read very convincingly, Callie Dalton had a Whitney, grating voice that started getting on your nerves after five minutes. Emma Wilder is a great choice for taking over. As for Stephen Dexter, there isn’t much good to be said about his performance. Although nature has given him a voice that could make angels smile, he has no idea how to use it. He changes characters by shouting and even screeching, insofar as one can screech with such a low voice. He is an unmitigated disaster as a narrator. I give 2.5 stars out of five on performance. Emma Wilder carries the entirety of that half. Alone, she would probably achieve a five.
