Summary

Never mix business with pleasure. Never bring politics into the bedroom. In a way I did both when I took Jackson Rutledge as a lover. I can't say I wasn't warned.

Two years later, he was back. Walking into a deal I'd worked hard to close. Under the tutelage of Lei Yeung, one of the sharpest businesswomen in New York, I had picked up a thing or two since Jax walked away. I wasn't the girl he once knew, but he hadn't changed. Unlike the last time we'd drifted into each other's lives, I knew exactly what I was dealing with...and how addictive his touch could be.

The inner circle of glamour, sex, and privilege was Jax's playground - but this time, I knew the rules of the game. In the cutthroat business world, one adage rules all: keep your enemies close and your ex-lovers closer...

Better than the film

I love Sylvia Day books and strangely saw the film before reading the book. the Audible version is brilliant.

An okay book

The person reading the book wasn’t consistent with her accents which was annoying. However the storyline was okay it’s not one of Sylvia Day’s greatest books but it’s alright.

Seamless story of a journey to love....

Where does Afterburn & Aftershock rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is probably one of my favourite! With strong characters and ultimately a powerful story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jackson is my favourite character. Whilst an alpha male who initially hate and want to keep hating you just can't help smiling when he starts talking or come into the presence of the protagonist!

What about Amy McFadden’s performance did you like?

I am no accent expert yet I think it was a stellar performance. I loved hearing all the different rich American accents, as they also play an instrumental role in the development of Gianna's character.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Defiantly, I was addicted going so far I was avoiding people so I could concentrate on the riveting story.

Any additional comments?

This is a perfect romance novel of an alpha male who also has other faucets to his character, just as all the characters are engineered and developed expertly. Gianna is a sassy young women, when hurt by a man bounces back, becoming strongly independent and taking the business by a storm. Her chemistry and attitude towards Jackson makes it a truly interesting read...

A book too long

Would you try another book written by Sylvia Day or narrated by Amy McFadden?

Rather over-rated in my view. There was really not a great deal to the story itself - strong willed beauty in restaurant trade with 'passions' involved in drawn out business negotiations involving her 'ex'. Listened to the first 60% or so then realised that actually I had a life so moved onto more entertaining listening. You know you are not enthralled when 5 minutes passes by and you are non the wiser.

6.5/10

Not as riveting as other Sylvia Day's novels that I have read. the narrator does a good job attempting to bring the story to life.

Love Syliva Day ♡

I have loved Sylvia's work since I read bared to you. This kept me up all night reading, I laughed and cried all at the right parts I was so invested in the story. I can't wait to download and listen to every Sylvia Day book on here.
