Summary
WREN
Moms are good at one thing: the guilt trip. It’s the only reason I’m at the funeral of a man I’ve never had anything to do with.
I’ll show up, make her happy, and get out.
At least that’s what I think until I learn daddy dearest has left me a crap load of money and the obligation to learn about the family business. All from his eldest son who looks nothing like the rest of us.
Darcy is the only Ritcherson who doesn’t treat me like the bastard son that I am. He helps me learn, pushes me to be better, and as we work together, we grow closer. For a gazillionaire with a media empire at his fingertips, he’s surprisingly humble.
And sweet.
And saying things he shouldn’t be saying.
The thing is, Mom swears she was never a mistress. Swears she was the only one Dad was seeing when she fell pregnant with me. But with Darcy only a few weeks older, there’s no way that can be the case.
Unless …
Unless the things he whispers when he thinks I’m not listening mean something. The guilt in his eyes when he looks at me would make sense.
If Darcy isn’t my father’s biological child, he’s not the Ritcherson heir.
I am.
And everything Darcy holds dear should be mine.

I enjoyed this one very much. The predictable occurrences were handled quickly or originally. The drama was understated, more like normal behavior. No real villains being only awful.
The narrators did the voices good but often I found the emotional range lacking. When someone is devastated, according to the text, I would like to hear it in their voice.

Fun and sexy
Really good story, which was well paced and lots of turns to keep it interesting. Loved it, and a HEA which was satisfying.

Loved it!
A really good story which kept my interest throughout. Well written and narrated. I would have preferred James Joseph to have read the whole story if I'm honest because he has a beautiful voice

What was that?
Who ever told Wren's voice actor that they can do English accents was a liar. Truely the worst attempt I have ever heard!

Fell flat....
I hate to say this as I usually really enjoy books written by these two but I didn't find the characters or story compelling in this one. This story could have easily been a novella, the internal monologues went on for pages and became repetitive playing out the exact same angst from both Darcy & Wren. The plot itself was ridiculous in all honesty and none of the characters are particularly likeable, I didn't connect with the MCs individually or as a couple as the romance/emotional connection just wasn't there it was all very lust driven as even now after finishing the book I couldn't tell you why they fell in love with each other. Darcy plays the martyr and Wren has daddy issues for days and that is about all I got from their personalities, it all just felt very soap opera-ish. The spicy scenes didn't add anything and fell flat because of that lack of emotional connection and just a FYI spit isn't an effective alternative to actual lube!🤦♀️ Unfortunately this book just didn't work for me.

Show, don't tell.
Is the major principle of storytelling - or so I have heard. This book is very heavy on the trelling side, trying to obviously manipulate the reader to take on certain views. A good editor could have done some good.
