About this listen
Named one of "The 20 Greatest Ever Romance Novels According to Goodreads Reviews" by O, The Oprah Magazine
Young interior designer Ava O'Shea has no idea what awaits her at the Manor. A run-of-the-mill consultation with a stodgy country gent seems likely, but what Ava finds instead is Jesse Ward - a devastatingly handsome, utterly confident, pleasure-seeking playboy who knows no boundaries.
Ava doesn't want to be attracted to this man, and yet she can't control the overwhelming desire that he stirs in her. She knows that her heart will never survive him and her instinct is telling her to run, but Jesse is not willing to let her go. He wants her and is determined to have her.

Story
He was the one man I couldn’t avoid. And the one man I couldn’t resist. Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: Anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me. Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past - and risk breaking us apart. But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him - and us - forever.

Rose Cassidy doesn’t truly live; she just exists. Numbing herself to fear and pain is the only way she can survive in this cruel world. So when she’s taken as collateral by the notorious Danny Black in a deadly game of power, she’s thrown by the deep fear she feels rising within her. And, worse than fear, a profound desire. She’s heard tales of The Brit. He’s callous. Coldblooded. But no one ever said he was wickedly beautiful and darkly captivating.

Story
Jesse Ward has stumbled through life drinking and indulging himself within the rooms of his high-class sex club, The Manor, numbing himself to the pain, grief, and guilt of his wrongs. Pleasure and alcohol are his medicine. Hedonism is all he knows. It’s how he copes. How he survives. Until Ava O’Shea strolls into his office and knocks him back with her breathtaking beauty, ambition, and drive. It only takes one look into her eyes, one touch of her skin, and one word murmured, before his heart is kick-started, offering him something he never thought possible.

Story
He is powerful, older, and my boss, a lethal combination. Job satisfaction has taken on a whole new meaning. When I lied on my resume, I didn’t expect it to matter. I mean any child would love me; I was born to be a nanny. I applied for a position working for a woman, or so I thought. But Julian Masters is definitely all man...the kind you dream of licking chocolate from. The first day was bad. The kids were the spawn of the devil and I spied through a window and caught him doing something obscene...and equally fascinating.

I was never supposed to see him again. Him being the man wearing the perfectly tailored suit, who oozed an intoxicating mixture of wealth, rebellion, and sex appeal. One night. No strings. No names. Still riding the high from last night, I walk in to meet my new client, and he’s wearing that same dangerous smirk. Yes, I’m consulting for Callahan Sharpe. That Callahan Sharpe. Billionaire heir who abides by no rules, bucks convention, and is determined to complete one final project to honor his late father’s legacy. Luckily, and unluckily for me, I’m tasked to help.

Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn’t as easy as it sounds. I was starting to lose hope. Until a knock at my door came, and God answered my prayers. Except...uh...wrong prayer, God. I’d definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate. Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway. While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn’t have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined. Then, cupcakes showed up at my door.

The first time I laid eyes on Henley James, I was mesmerized. The chemistry between us was like nothing I’d ever felt. Impeccable suit, dimpled smile. He was charming and gorgeous, sophisticated and suave. He gave me his business card and asked me to call. His dating game was strong; I was gone from his first smile. I’d love to tell you our date was a raging success, but it wasn’t. Far from it. I decided right there on that day that Henley James and I would forever be mortal enemies; I would never think of him again.

In the beginning, there was Savannah Shaw. Teasing me with a mischievous, merciless grin by day. Crawling through my window with tear-stained cheeks by night. I was ordered to avoid her. Lectured on her misdeeds. Forbidden from seeing her. But my need to protect her was innate. So natural I never questioned it. So visceral I couldn’t fight it.

Donovan and I met at a coffee shop to do the suitcase exchange. Turned out, it wasn’t just his voice that was sexy. The man holding my luggage was absolutely gorgeous, and we had an immediate spark. He got me to admit that I’d snooped in his bag and then convinced me to make it up to him by letting him buy me coffee. Coffee led to dinner, dinner led to dessert, and dessert led to spending an entire weekend together. So what did I do to repay him for his kindness? I waited until he was in the shower, then ghosted him.

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.

Lacks a story
If you’re looking for sexy reading, this will do it. I just kept waiting for a twist or a story. I didn’t like the way the narrator made the main character so mean.

one of the best series I have read.
I love Jodi Ellen Malpas and all of her work. this one I have read over a dozen times and after listening to the audible it will definitely be one that I listen to in my car more often. as the series grows it gets more and more intriguing with each book I can promise you that. this is one that got me back into reading and I couldn't put it down and usually it's hard for me to listen to audiobooks sometimes as I don't like certain people's tone of voice but this one did very well. if you like steamy romance this is one for you but trust me this whole series is a roller coaster but it's so worth it.

I enjoyed the book is an understatement. Level 10 antsy thought so be warned. Spicy scenes are the best I’ve come across. Men’s voice could be better is my only critique.

Interesting steamy romance... with a few concerns
**Books 1-3 : This is an interesting detailed romance series with a rather full story line. In some respects the story is unique and refreshing. However, there are a few annoyances. The characters are quite flawed and the psychology of the series is rather fictionalized. There is some therapeutic value / healing / overcoming but it's rather fictionalized in some regards. If this was based on a true story I'd suggest they have a few years of counselling. Thank goodness it's fiction and with that in mind, overcoming can happen in a month or so along with some co-dependence thrown in the mix. Regardless, I do appreciate the theme of using tragedy to learn and become a better person. The other annoyance is that the books have at least three areas of text regarding events / descriptions that contradict other areas of text. This is annoying and should have been edited. It's difficult to say whether this book series will bother readers who want trigger warnings....idk... Possible triggers differ in type and severity from book to book.
Despite a couple of somewhat annoying voice interpretations, the narrator did a great job regarding some complex passages and very many characters needing a voice.

Don’t waste your time!
I listened to one book by this author, it was bad. I should have known better than to waste a credit on one of her other books, but I thought this one might be good, so much hype about it. So, I tried to listen all the way through, I really tried, but I just couldn’t continue to waste my time. Perhaps if there had been dual narration it would have been more palatable, listening to one voice, doing a terrible job for a male’s voice for so many hours was just too painful. I hope I can return this listen and use my credit for something worthwhile.

Not great
I was expecting so much and got so little. There is a lot of degrading comments, the story is barely even a story and honestly the characters are not likable.
