Great storyline great narrator

This was a great story and Lucy and Asher are a great couple. I could not put this story down. There were many parts in this book that I laughed out loud. There was suspense that also kept me reading/listening. There was great storyline with a trope I normally not a fan of, fake fiancé, but this book was a great one. This was my first narration by Lacy Laurel and I will keep looking for some by her.

Parker S Huntington does it again

I loved the story of Lucy and Asher, Parker’s writing is pure magic.
Unfortunately the Narration was a big disappointment for me and that’s why I couldn’t give a 5* review.

very funny and unique

I've now read the book and listened to the audible narration and since I already liked the book A LOT- it was quite fun to listen and hear Lucy's inner rambling said aloud. the story has some typical romantic tropes but I felt they were introduced in a new way that made the story feel new and unique and seriously I laughed out loud quite often. The narrator was new to me and she has a unusual cadence and speech pattern that took a little while for me to get used to but eventually that went away and I was just happy to listen to the story. I think that Lucy and Asher have a great story and I recommend both the book and audiobook.

"You're different than I thought"

Lucy has moved to New York and knows no one. She met her new roommate and they decide to go out to a club to enjoy the night. Little did Lucy know who she was about to meet and how her life would change when she did. Asher Black's life is complicated and he has so many levels that Lucy is surprised as she peels back each layer.

I loved this story, it's full of suspense, lust and a slow burn to true love and finally giving into desire. Lacy Laurel did a really good job narrating this story and giving it the emotion needed to keep me interested in listening. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it.

I received a code from Audiobook Obsession Review to listen and give my honest opinion. 5 stars from me.

Asher Black!!!

I truly enjoyed this listen! Both for the characters and storyline as well as the narration!! I wasn’t completely sure about Asher at the beginning of the book, spoiled rich boy that he appeared .. but I gained respect and love for him as the story moved on!

The fake fiancé story always gets me at first because it’s a sad commentary on life usually, but this one wasn’t so much of that as I’ve read before. Parker S Huntington did a wonderful job developing the characters and writing this story.

Lacy Laurel is a great narrator and it’s always easy to tell which character is talking at any one time! This is no different!

Asher Black will make you swoon

I enjoyed listening to Asher Black. I loved the narration, it was easy to follow and the performance was great. I’d recommend this book to anyone who likes mafia books, rich business men, funny independent women, or a combination of all the above. This is the first book I’ve read/listened to by this author and I’m looking forward to reading more.

The whole package!

Lucy Ives was a foster kid, she didn't have an easy upbringing, floating from foster home to foster home. She hightailed it out of the country to volunteer abroad as soon as she turned 18 to escape her awful life and what it had become. She's back now, and her roommate talks her into going to a club on her first night back. When the unthinkable happens and Lucy is stuck in a situation, she makes a call to the cops which she realizes belatedly was the absolute wrong thing to do. When the mafia's fixer comes to take care of her, he ends up doing her a favor and sparing her life. Now he tells her she owes him a favor, play the role of his fiance or he will finish the job he was suppose to do in the first place.

Asher Black is the mafia's fixer, he works for the Romano family. He is cold, calculating, and oh so dream worthy! He spares Lucy's life realizing he can use her to his advantage.

Lucy and Asher have an instant gravitation towards each other. They keep you rooting for them the whole time. When things start to fall into place everything just feels right in the world. Lucy realizes she wants this thing between her and Asher to be real and she keeps reminding herself it's just for show, even though the signals Asher are giving don't seem fake.

This book blew me away. It was sweet and dark and suspenseful and loving and just everything all wrapped up in one. Of course I do have a soft spot for mafia romances, they are always the books I am drawn to. I love the suspense of them and the sweetness as well. You get to see both sides of the coin when it comes to the male lead. You see the lethal side and the loving side and realizes they are really just one in the same, they are lethal because they are protecting those they love.

Asher was the epitome of perfection! I was taken with him from the start and I never looked back!

This book was a favorite for sure and one I will revisit often. I loved it with all the action/drama/romance.. I just can't get enough of the Romano family. Parker really has a way with words and knows how to keep you engulfed in a book so much to where you forget where you are. You feel as though you are there immersed within the pages, living along side the characters. They feel so real it's as though you know them personally and are a part of their lives.

The performance of this book was great! Lacy did a fabulous job narrating this book! I look forward to listening to more of her work.
