Summary

Everything I thought I knew about myself was nothing more than a fabrication.

I had it all—the perfect life, the loving family, the best friend, the rock n roll boyfriend—until I didn't.

The fairytales I grew up with were lies. Like my ex-best friend once said, fairytales are not real, and there is no prince on a white horse coming to save you. She was right. I was naive to think I deserved a happily ever after—until him.

Dark, tall, handsome, and twice my age. I knew nothing about him, but it seemed he knew everything about me. Like I said, everything I knew about myself was nothing more than a fabrication, and now I had resentment pumping through my blood.

The old Connie is long gone. Say hello to the new and improved.

The Resentment is book one in the Illicit Love series, which consists of four interconnected standalones. It's best to listen to the series in order, and after listening to Dear Heart, You Screwed Me.

This was my first Ashlee Rose audiobook, and it was pretty darn good. I enjoyed the storyline as a whole, the main characters and all the very sexy moments! There were some irritating factors. I didn't realise there were so many related books previous to this one, and I did feel out of the loop at times. I also had issues with the overly repeated phrases "tears dissolving" (into many different places), was probably the most overused, and annoying. All the negatives were easily balanced by the incredible narration by Callie Dalton and Ryan West. They both handled English and American accents brilliantly (both male and female). In this case, I think it was even better than a duet recording would have been. I could tell the author is a Brit because of the britishisms throughout (maybe incorrectly used in places where US characters were talking?).

Good storyline with lots of heat, and excellent narration.

I was totally obsessed with Connie’s character in DHYSM, and was so thrilled when I heard that she was getting her own story!

Callie really did an incredible job portraying Connie, as she superbly displayed the raw emotion in her voice, and vulnerability present in Connie’s character

An addictively wonderful book, and a brilliant performance by both Narrators!

I’m so excited to listen to the next book in the Illicit Love series!!

An incredible performance!

I really enjoy a well written age gap romance, this is not that. Even the narrators couldn't save this for me. I skipped to the end from about 50% and I'm convinced I didn't miss anything that added to the story

This book gave me the ick
