About this listen

A shocking twist of fate reunites a quiet school teacher with her childhood nemesis and greatest love.

Shy and modest Lina Montez has been infatuated with Tobias Langthorne, heir to a Napa Valley land fortune, for as long as she can remember. Growing up alongside the intoxicatingly handsome bully on his family’s fabled vineyard and estate was an experience she will never forget. The young “lord of the manor” spent countless hours tormenting the housekeeper’s daughter as well as inspiring her budding sexual desire.

Ten years later, Lina finds Tobias as provocative and dangerous as ever, but embittered by divorce and haunted by his own demons of the past. Now Lina must battle her old playmate to save the land she loves, but this time she won’t be intimidated by her sexually magnetic business partner. The biggest struggle of all, however, is the one within herself. Can she fight off an attraction that is as ripe and full bodied as the lush cabernet grapes they farm? And will she breathe new life into the forsaken ranch as well as polish the rust from her tarnished hero?

This was a good listen! It was also a slow burn but the repition of Tobias name very irritating and his Tobias doing this Tobias doing that urgh .....I also found it odd that Toby referred to himself in third person. The story develops nicely ....

The narration was really good , never listened to this guy before but will look out further titles that he narrates .

I received this title in exchange for honest review.Thanks

Good listen

Ms. Bowen's steamy and detailed writing tugs at the heartstrings and is very hard to put down. The details place you right in the vineyard and you can almost smell the soil. The character development made me cry, scream, smile and laugh. Ms. Bowen never disappoints.

The combination of Ms. Bowen's writing with the sultry voice of Mr. McAllister makes this a very pleasant listen that I could not put down. I'm happy to know that there are at least two more books in this series, and I cannot wait to start the next one!

I was provided with a free copy of this audio book for my honest review. The views expressed here are entirely my own.

Amazing!

It was a solid four stars. I did think it was over the top with the chanting of Tobias Langford, to the point I really think she needs pharmaceuticals. Tobias was a a$$hat for a good part of the book, but did get somewhat better. I just couldn’t see what Lina saw in him when he was younger. I couldnt connect with these characters. The writing style was good, characters didn’t seem to develop much though. The narration was ok, kinda how I expect them to sound, even if Tobias’s character sounded off. Overall a good read. This is the first I have read from this author, and will be looking forward to more books from her.

Solid 4 star read

I enjoy not only the story but the characters in this book as well. I did have to give it an overall four stars only because it wasn't a fan of how the character would often repeat names over and over in the book not sure if it was just how it was translated to narration or that's how it was an actual book. Like like I said the storyline in plot I both enjoyed there was just that one thing I couldn't quite get over otherwise I would have really loved it and given it five stars. The narrator I didn't personally have a problem with I did enjoy his voice and felt like he did a good job with the story. I I just feel like I might have liked this book better in the print form I feel like maybe something got lost and translation but again I did like the storyline and plot.

Enjoyed the story

I loved this book. Toby and Lina were a great couple with heaps of chemistry. The banter was fun and made me laugh out loud. I was irritated however with Toby calling Lina LEE-NA and Lina not marrying Toby when he asked was so frustrating. Logan's voice was sexy and deep and bought the characters to life.
