About this listen

When Gabe Hamilton saw Mia Crestwell walk into the ballroom for his hotel’s grand opening, he knew he was going to hell for what he had planned. After all, Mia is his best friend’s little sister. Except she’s not so little anymore. And Gabe has waited a long time to act on his desires.

Gabe has starred in Mia’s fantasies more than once, ever since she was a teenager with a huge crush on her brother’s best friend. So what if Gabe’s 14 years older? Mia knows he’s way out of her league, but her attraction has only grown stronger with time. She’s an adult now, and there’s no reason not to act on her most secret desires. As Gabe pulls her into his provocative world, she realizes there’s a lot she doesn’t know about him or how exacting his demands can be. Their relationship is intense and obsessive, but as they cross the line from secret sexual odyssey to something deeper, their affair runs the risk of being exposed - and is vulnerable to a betrayal far more intimate than either expected.

Turner off after 15 min

The voice is just not right. Really put me off and after 15 min I was done. Such a monotone voice.

Part of the better written erotica genre

Gabe and Mia - she's his best friend's little sister and as such, is completely off limits. She's had a crush on him forever and when he decides she's ready for defilement, she jumps at the chance to be with him. He offers a mild version of dom/sub and some fairly well written sex ensues.

They have to keep their relationship quiet because her brother will go postal when he finds out. Unfortunately, he walks in on them in the middle of...um... well, you know, and all hell breaks loose.

It's not as good as Sylvia Day or Jodi Ellen Malpas. Even Twilight is of a better quality. Having said that, it is a good read.

It's enjoyable, steamy and endearing.

Predictable. only so so

I really like the "sweet" series and since then i hope that maya creates another sizzling hit. Therefore expecting more i was disappointed. The story was predictable and a little flat. The sexy parts were ok. But all in all surprisingly boring Its always difficult when the hero has no humour at all. i couldn`t connect with gabe s character at all. Good looks is not enough.

Very enjoyable

I love this dynamic of the relationship. When a forbidden love turns into more and friendships are at jeopardy what’s a girl and boy to do? Great characters.

Very average in every way

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

Characters are quite flat and although it wasn't an unpleasant experience, it wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

What was most disappointing about Maya Banks’s story?

Story is very predictable and no real surprises.

What three words best describe Adam Paul’s voice?

Took me a while to get used to having a male voice ina story I felt was more suited to a femine one, but he did grow on me...

If this book were a film would you go see it?

Out of curiosity yes, but I can't see it becoming a big success...

Any additional comments?

If you've read 50 Shades, you'll be disappointed.
