About this listen

It was supposed to go like this: meet-cute at the dog park, have a hot and sexy hookup, and never see each other again.

Things didn’t go quite like I was hoping. I met the fine Irishman in the park, but the rest of my plan was upended by an extremely inconvenient break-in.

My record label isn’t thrilled that the lead singer of their biggest new band might have a crazed fan or angry ex out for revenge, so they hire a bodyguard to protect me.

That sexy Irishman from the dog park? His name is Ronan Walsh, and he’s now my big, bossy bodyguard.

Ronan thrives on control. The only place I give up control is in the bedroom.

The spark that was there when we first met hasn’t gone out. Each time we clash, it adds another splash of gasoline to the flames until we combust.

It’s even better than I imagined.

But Ronan’s still a bossy suit, and I’m a rock star who refuses to be tamed. We make no sense. Then again, sometimes the best things are the most unexpected.

Ronan says I’m his to protect, but I’m beginning to think I could just be his. That is if the danger lurking in the background doesn’t get to me first.

The first in the Seasons Change journey and as always I doesn't disappoint. A front woman for a band, seemingly being stalked and a hot bodyguard with an accent that will melt your bones, what more can a girl ask for. An amazing listen as always guaranteed with anything from Julia.

Amazing listen as always with Julia

I'm not sure I really liked the FMC but Ronan was dreamy. I won't be contuing with the series as I couldn't be bothered, which says it all! The narration was excellent though!

fun romance

She’s feisty and relatable and flawed.
He’s a good solid stoic protector who can’t get involved .
She’s a sexy singer in a successful band .
He owns a security firm and employed to keep her safe from a stalker.
Good chemistry build up between them both , although not sure they should have had the first sexy experience when they do though.
V refreshing that the mfc isn’t a teenage inexperienced virgin and has a personality and likes sex and knows what she likes.
Spice is fine and not too icky .
Story plods along at a good pace and good for free intro to the series.I imagine reading this book is better than listening however ..
Most of the characters are Irish , neither one of the voice actors can do anything resembling Irish accent to hilarious execution.
It does detract from the story a tad . I’ve zoned it out as much as poss but in the end embraced it and chuckled along.

Nice story , terrible Irish accents

Averagely good plot though not the best written I’ve heard. There are lots of inconsistencies (such as the ability to get what will have been a contested divorce between two minor characters agreed within six months) and there's not a great deal of attention paid to descriptive passages (with the exception of those involving tattoos). Even the spicy scenes aren't particularly well written (to the extent that I often lost attention during them and did something more interesting instead, such as reading mail!).

The narration doesn't help to build either character or chemistry. Ms Sparks manages this rather better than Mr Frost. She does voice Iris in a way which sounds age appropriate for our FMC but I can't hear the sass or steel that a woman with Iris’ background would have developed. Mr Frost doesn't give the best performance I’ve heard from him. Ronan is surprised that, having left Ireland five years previously, Iris can still tell that he's from Dublin. Well, he's not the only one who finds this difficult to understand since he now sounds like an American, trying to speak with an Irish brogue following a long stint in Australia!

I couldn't decide whether the writing style or quality or the standard of narration put me off but I didn't warm to either of the MCs and wasn't at all invested in what happened to them. Minor characters are about as well drawn as is the case in the vast majority of such novels. Around the only ones in whom I was interested were the FMC’s sister and the MMC’s aunt. Whilst the former might feature in future stories, it's unlikely that the latter will ever be a major character since she's probably around 60 and, of course, older women obviously have no pulling power!

This was free in the Plus catalogue when I listened to it but I’m afraid it hasn't induced me either to buy it or to use a credit on the next story in the series (Callum and Wren’s). It also hasn't sparked any desire to look for more books from Ms Wolf. Deleted from my devices and removed from my library.

Average but not well narrated.
