About this listen

One moment I'm the forgotten daughter of one of the most wealthy families in the country, and the next I'm the blushing bride in an arranged marriage. My fate is sealed in my wedded union with a complete stranger.

In public, Perry Constantine is the life of the party. Easygoing. Adored. In private, he's brooding. Dark. Angry. But so am I. It's a contest of wills to see who will break in the bedroom first, and while I try to remain strong, I find myself craving the very man I swore to hate.

My husband.

Contains mature themes.

Nothing happens

It felt like almost nothing happened in the book. It's kinda sweet romance. The last 20min the author is trying to persuade me something might happen in the next book, not sure I believe her. I need a bit more action and adventure in my romances.

Good story shame about the cliff hanger

There is no benefit of having a book free on audible if it leaves you in a cliff hanger you need credits to complete the story! So frustrating!!

Great story

This has been an exciting story so far and I can’t wait to see how this story plays out, lots of twists to it but what is the end game?

The passion comes through in their voices

Beautiful arranged marriage story that surprises the main characters when they find that marriage might not be so bad.

Voices… oh dear

A camp male lead voice is not really working for me… some will enjoy but not my cup of tea

Not what I expected

I didn't realise this was the first of a trilogy. I picked it looking for an enemies to lovers or forced marriage romcom. It is the latter without the 'com.'
It's got the bones for a good trilogy, just not the lighthearted read I wanted at this time.

Dreadful narrator!

Couldn’t even get to mid point! Female narrator stopped me listening! Flicked forward a little, but voice too flat & monotone for me!
