About this listen

Welcome to the sensual world of This Man...

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 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.

Great story

Loved the story and thought the Narrater did a really good job, but would have loved a male voice for the Jessie parts.
Loved Ava and Jessie’s story can’t wait for the next one especially after that ending!!!

Steamy story laugh out loud moments

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This man is believable his flaws push her away, but he is like gravity she cant stay away !!! The london setting is great makes a change to have a sexy english bloke as the hot lead character. cant wait for "Beneath this man" so come on audible lets have it !!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jessie he wont give up he wont compromise he knows they should be together and he is prepared to fight for it>

What does Edita Brychta bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

she made the story even better especially the gritty exchanges between Jesse and Ava her accent is modern posh british so when she swears its funny

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I just want her to give him a second chance so bring on book 2

Phew, this book is red hot

Ava and Jesse! This story is electric from start to finish. I also like the additional chapter at the end from Jesse's POV. Can't wait to start the next one.

Abusive relationship dressed up as romance.

This book just made me angry. An abusive controlling relationship tarted up as ‘romance’. It sets a dangerous view of what is ok and normal for young women. I listened to the end only because I wanted to find out if she told him where to go.
The metaphors were pretty terrible too eg “panting like a dehydrated dog” isn’t very sexy.

50 Shades move over for Jessie

If you could sum up This Man in three words, what would they be?

Another Man MessedUp

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

18 Hours, in one sitting?

Any additional comments?

Erotic without the kink of 50 Shades, excellent listening

Brilliant Author

I have been a huge fan of Jodi Ellen Malpas for so many years now, I have read and re read the This Man series many times and am an aude admirer of all things The Lord!!! It was thrilling to be able to listen to it as well now, I shall be purchasing the rest of the series on audible, if you haven't read or listened to these books and all the others from this author then trust me when I say you are missing out!!!!
