About this listen

From Wall Street Journal, BookTok, and #1 Amazon bestselling author T L Swan comes the sizzling story of Gabriel Ferrara and Grace Porter.

Grace Porter has the perfect job, great pay, a beautiful office, everything she ever dreamed of, if not for one small detail.
She's utterly and hopelessly in love with her boss.

Gabriel Ferrara is tall and handsome, and most days she wants to stab her eyes out with a pencil, anything to stop her seeing his perfection. How any female could work in these conditions and not be completely besotted with him is beyond her.

Then he opens his mouth and she remembers why. He's bossy and sarcastic, with a wit so sharp it could cut glass.

Every weekend is the same . . . while he's off living his dream life, she's counting down the days until Monday when she sees him again.

But enough is enough. Grace is tired of organising his glamorous and exciting life, instead of living her own. Determined to find true happiness, she hands in her resignation.

Furious, he won't accept it, and rages like never before. Desperate to keep her, he offers her a Bonus . . . one she never saw coming.

Finally . . .

It's Grace's turn to be the boss.

Author's note. . . . Includes exclusive ebook Bonus scenes from Gabriel Ferrara.

Another great story

The long awaited story of Gabriel and Grace did not disappoint - I really loved it and he’s now my favourite book boyfriend. CJ Bloom was excellent as was Sean Masters - what a beautiful sexy voice he has!

What a roller-coaster!

The banter between Gabriel and Grace had me laughing out loud so many times! It was absolutely hilarious! At other times, though, I was close to tears. It took them both a very long time to work through their personal emotional issues so that they could finally get their happy-ever-after. Grace was full of fear of being hurt again and not being good enough, and Gabriel was utterly stifled by the control of generational family obligations. Both of them made some serious mistakes in how they handled themselves, their situation and each other, but fear is a powerful force. Also, I find it shocking that in this day and age, parents (in this instance, Gabriel's) can be so narrow minded and want to live their lives and their children's lives, too. So many mistakes made and so much time wasted... If this wasn't the case, though, we wouldn't have had the wonderful story we were able to listen to, and thereby live Grace's and Gabriel's experiences vicariously. The Bonus is a story I would recommend, and I've already picked out a number of other stories by T.L. Swan to listen to.

perfection

I've been waiting for 2 1/2 years for this book. We had a sneak peek of it when we read the Christmas special, and i wanted more. They deserved a full book, and i enjoyed every second of it.
The narration was incredible, it made a good story even better. The first few chapter were in the Christmas special, so i had read them a few times before, but listening to it was an entirely new experience. Her inner thoughts and their fight on audio was hilarious. 100% reccomend.

Exceptional story and audio

What a rollercoaster of emotions I felt during reading and listening to this book. Gabriel is arrogant and complex and Grace is strong and determined. These two characters had intense chemistry.
This duet style narration was such a pleasure to listen to, the quality of the audio production was exceptional.

A MUST LISTEN TO! Outstanding story…

To anyone who has been waiting on this book to be published, like I was, suffice to say it’s more than worth the wait! It surpassed my expectations by a country mile and they were high as T L Swan always writes an outstanding story but she definitely surpassed herself with this one.
I can’t wordsmith how utterly fabulous this book was. It had everything in it I love - a compelling storyline, adorable characters, belly laugh humour, beautiful romance, emotional scenarios, witty amazing one liners, smoking hot sex as well as including characters from a couple of her other books (it could easily be listened to as a standalone but once you’ve listened to one T L Swan book you’ve got to hear them all!).
I’ve given it all the stars but if I could - I’d add the sun and moon to them too.
A MUST LISTEN TO - if ever there was one.
The narrators performance was truly outstanding.

I'm jealous of anyone getting to listen to this for the first time!

The actors hit every single word perfectly, the characters are the right level of dramatic, emotional, funny and sensual. A 10/10 book for me

LOVED, LOVED, LOVED IT!

The story of Grace and Gabriel had me hooked from the beginning. The narrator’s were above and beyond, and that made my experience so much enjoyable. Thank you for a most wonderful audio.

Enjoyable listen

I’ve struggled with TL Swan’s more recent offerings but this one seems to be back in form.

The first third is a little slow - it’s basically setting up the rest of the book and at times it doesn’t quite get the pace right.

However once we get to the bit where Gabriel finds out Grace’s secret then the book picks up. It’s very obvious where this is going but the process of getting there is fun. There’s lots of sarcastic back and forth, numerous battles, sweet parts, funny moments and of course spice (although for a TLSwan book the spice is a little tame). Gabriel is an absolute alpha, he’s bossy and possessive and at times downright mean. Grace is loving, and independent, resourceful and a bit too prideful for her own good. Both Grace and Gabriel keep getting in their own way. It’s quite a light story, with some angst and drama but not very much.

The narrator’s both do a great job, and I love the duet style as opposed to just dual point of view. Sean Masters would make an excellent Beast from Beauty and the Beast, he’s just so growly! C J Bloom is great, although a little over dramatic at times.

Overall a good listen and worth a credit.
