My Review
Brynne is a mess working on getting over a cheating ex just her luck she lost her phone which has her whole life on it. Everything starts when she found her ex cheating after his return from overseas. He acts weird and has changed she could forgive just about anything but his cheating. When he talks her brother who is a doctor to go help in Africa he comes up missing and her ex comes home. When she loses her phone it is the last straw she falls apart everything was on that phone her last words with her brother, everything she holds dear. When a call comes in that her phone has been found her best friend send her on her way to meet up with the man with the sexy cashmere voice. On meeting sparks fly with attraction at the highest. Fenton isn’t about to let her walk out of his life. They agree to have a one weekend stand both getting what they want and walk away. Things are not always cut and dry when the heart is in the mix. Everything is going great until one phone changes their world leaving them both in a tailspin.

Ms. Langola has a wonderful and very talented voice giving you a listen you get lost in. There are no background noises or any place where the volume is higher or lower in places. If a break was taken you can’t tell. Her character voices are wonderful  you can get lost in her Fenton voice is it so sexy smooth and does sound cashmere. You have no trouble knowing who is talking or what they are feeling. She really does put a lot of emotion in to her voice.  The only area I could see that could use some improvement is when the character yawns she does not nor when the character whispers she does not it would be more believable if she did. That is not saying she does a bad job but just needs a little more to it. I really thought the narrator did a wonderful job and really pulled me in making me see the pictures in my mind that her voice gave. She really has a smooth and at time soft voice which makes you believe what she is telling you. You have no doubt that Bryann heart is breaking and that she loves her brother very much. There is no doubt that Fenton is in turmoil with mixed emotions.  I loved her voice and look forward to getting lost in it again.

Fenton was very alpha maybe a little to alpha and over the top for a one weekend stand. He is very cocky and demanding for having just met her. He knows what he wants and goes after it. I liked him at first and then not but he became a very likeable character still at time very controlling for a booty call. You just can’t get a handle on him until it all comes clear later on. His life is busy with so much to keep running he just doesn’t have time for a girlfriend.  After a few passionate filled nights he is hook and can’t walk away. When plans to hook up from time to time change it tilts their world like nothing ever has. Can he walk away from Brynne and all her pain or will he get right in the middle of it?

Brynne goes for the rebound only to find her heart is very much in it with toe curling nights she doesn’t want to walk away from the thrill or the passion Fenton gives her. A phone call from his business and one from her mother turns her world inside out leaving her feeling alone. She knows her life is a mess and she shouldn’t mix Fenton up in it but it is just so dang hard to walk away from perfection. When he cuts her off with I will be busy and can’t see you for awhile she knows he is walking out of her life. She takes it on the chin but not everything is as it seems which leaves her world spinning.

Brynne ex is a real piece of work and acts like a child it is hard to believe he has enough sense to even work the job he has. A BIG LOSSER he is and she is better off without him.  She knows he had something to do with her brother coming up missing something is off she just can’t put her finger on it. I really liked her best friend she kept the story interesting with her witty ways.  Her family is strong and stands together. Brynne was very likeable but under so much stress she can’t always see what is before her eyes. Fenton is something else and in a lot of ways very controlling. Both are fun loving characters that love to bait the other which keeps you smiling. At times this was a very humorous read and at other times a touching. I thought at times Fenton was a little much but he is a very lovable character that will steal your heart.

I really enjoyed the listen it was a hard book to put down. The author gives you a wonderful story that you get lost in. You can see the writing on the wall but she doesn’t give you enough to piece it together leaving you second guessing what you think is true.  This story moves pretty fast keeping you on the edge hoping for the best but expecting the worse.  It was well written with likeable characters that you cheer for. There are some really HOT scenes that you will get lost in. The emotion is high but the passion is higher. When you close the last page you will have a BIG smile on your face closing your eyes to let it all sink in with a feeling of peace after a bad storm. I think most will totally enjoy not only the book but this audio.

Summary
Smooth. Sexy. Irresistible.

Those qualities equal only one thing.

Big. Freaking. Trouble.

Brynne Calloway knows that anything that seems too good to be true usually is. Fenton Abbott and his cashmere voice, Adonis body, and a magnetism like no other clearly falls into that category. But what’s life without a little risk?

It was supposed to be a rebound, an uncomplicated escape from reality. But nothing ever goes as planned. Fenton turns out to be so much more … in ways Brynne never sees coming.
