About this listen

Isabelle West has learned the hard way how hard life can be when fate isn't by your side. For the last two years Isabelle has been slowly clearing the clouds of her past. Happiness is finally on the horizon. She has a thriving business, great friends, and her life back. All she has to do is jump over the last hurdle... her ex-husband.

Axel never thought he would look into the eyes of Isabelle West again, and he wasn't sure he wanted to now. He's carried his anger for so long he isn't sure he can just turn it off, but when he is faced with protecting her and an unexpected desire to have her again, life gets a little more complicated. How will Axel and Isabelle deal when all their cards are put on the table and everything they thought was true blows up in their faces?

Contains mature themes.

Critic reviews

"Alpha heroes you'll want to kidnap and keep, heroines to root for, and sizzling love scenes with emotional punch." (Carly Phillips, New York Times best-selling author)

I couldn’t get through the first chapters and listened to book 2 Cage first (better reviews). Really enjoyed it, started book 3 Beck. The author doesn’t recap so I felt I had to go back to book 1 Axel because the stories overlap a bit. So glad I did. The narration gets better after the first few chapters. It is mismatched, female too soft, male too bold, but it gets better, especially book 2.

Persevere through the first few chapters

This was the first book I read by Harper Sloan and when I saw it as part of the plus catalogue I had to have a listen. I loved it when I read it, I can't say I enjoyed it more as audio because i'm not sure I did, however, I did enjoy it. Sometimes the narration was very quiet so I missed some of the dialogue and had to go back, turn it up and listen again, and then when normal speaking resumed it was very loud.

Loved It

Really wished that I read the book instead of listening to it narrator at times she was really bad and very child like.

It was okay

Just as amazing as it was the first time i read it 11 years ago! The OGs!

audio reread!

The narrator read the heroine as having no backbone. I know the character has been through some trials, but she is made out to be insipid and wet. What the main hero actually sees in her is beyond belief - nothing to recommend her. When I read the books to me the heroine had some spark and humour -the reading had nothing.

Heroine is pathetic
