Story4.5 out of 5 stars 26
Camden Harris, the famously hot, hulk of a footballer is laid up in a London hospital. But his busted knee doesn't stop him from running his well-practiced game on Indie Porter - his redheaded spitfire of a doctor. She's not his type, not even close. But she could be the perfect distraction from the soul-crushing damage this injury could cost him.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 72
If anyone ever said being an adult was easy, they hadn't been one long enough. Diana Casillas can admit it: she doesn't know what the hell she's doing half the time. How she's made it through the last two years of her life without killing anyone is nothing short of a miracle. Being a grown-up wasn't supposed to be so hard.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 68
Some days, all you need is a message from a stranger. Ruby Santos knew exactly what she was getting herself into when she signed up to write a soldier overseas. The guidelines were simple: one letter or email a week for the length of his or her deployment. Care packages were optional. Been there, done that. She thought she knew what to expect. What she didn't count on was falling in love with the guy.

Story5 out of 5 stars 1
I’ve always been the person that does whatever someone tells me I can’t. Can’t graduate with a four-point-oh? Check. Can’t win a modeling contract without trying? Did it. Check. Can’t make it in the pro football league? Triple check with an MVP Award on top. When my best friend told me to stay away from his little sister, Layla, it didn’t sound like a challenge. Then again, I’d never seen her before. He obviously wasn’t thinking about who he was talking to if he believed I could ignore her.

They say Paris is always a good idea.... You know what I say? Paris would be a much better idea if I spoke the dang language. I can't even board the metro to visit the Louvre without ending up at the Moulin Rouge, and let's not even mention how I'll ever make it through a day at my new office. Fortunately my company hooks me up with my own personal translator. Ooh la la. Or should I say bloody hell? Because he's charming, witty, and British, and he brings the city to life for me.

He calls himself Spider. I just knew him as the sinfully gorgeous guy with eyes of fire that fate sat next to me on the airplane. I didn’t know who he really was...British rock star...my stepbrother. He kissed me because he thought we’d never see each other again. We would. Everyone warned me about him. They told me he was ruthless and cold and screwed up. They said he’d leave me with a hole in my heart. Maybe I should have listened. Maybe I should have built up a fortress to keep him out. But I crumbled instead.

When you think about how easy it is to lose keys, phones, sunglasses and your dignity on social media, you might figure it'd be a cinch for me to ditch my V Card. You'd be wrong. At 25, I run a successful business, live in a fantastic apartment, and have fabulous friends to go out with any night of the week. And yet I'm still a card-carrying member of a club I don't want to belong to anymore. Good thing I know just the man for the deflowering job - my brother’s business partner and best friend.

The average song is three and a half minutes long; those three and a half minutes could lead to a slow blink, a glimpse of the past, or catapult the soul into heart-shattering nostalgia. At the height of my career, I had the life I wanted, the life I'd always envisioned. I'd found my tempo, my rhythm. Then I received a phone call that left me off key.

The first rule of office romance is don't do it - especially if your dream is to hold the anchor spot on the nightly news and your boss is trying to get you fired. But one look at Cade Hill, the sexy new sports director, and uptight reporter Rebecca Fieldstone is daydreaming about other things. Sex in his office...Sex in the on-set kitchen...Sex in the supply closet.... She can't stop thinking about the former NFL quarterback and how perfect he'd look between her sheets - except he's an arrogant jerk with a huge...ego.

A pleasure from start to finish!
This well written, unusual story combines romance, tension, angst, great story line and truly interesting characters and scenarios, is brought excellently to life by Valerie Gilbert. She modulates her voice to bring passion, frustration, fear and sexy times to our eager ears. I have remained engrossed throughout, becoming really quite grumpy when interrupted!

Winner winner chicken dinner
When Ivy League & Tutus Collide, ain't that the truth? Not only did they collide, they tore each other up in the process! I was completely and utterly immersed in this book from the get-go. I loved the dual POV, I fell totally in love with both Adeline and Leo, they both just made complete and utter sense to me. Their interactions were believable and the sexual tension took my breath away. The story follows ballet dancer Adeline who is on a student scholarship programme at a prestigious ballet company and the two loves of her life who were born with silver spoons in their mouths and are part of a power hungry fraternity that threaten everything and everyone to keep their secrets. This is a love story with lots of angst, twists, turns, revenge and jealousy. Can their two worlds merge and will they defy the odds? Will love conquer all? I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would go as far as to say it's my favourite Amy Daws book to date

Interesting read
The story was different, and a bit too much drama at a times, but it kept me entertained. I couldn't connect with characters and didn't see a draw between them either.
The narration was very good and it made the book better.
I received a credit as a gift and this review is freely given.

Overall the story was good!!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this book to a friend. The story was good and it had some hotness to it. I can't say that I agreed with eveything but hey I always think that someone does something stupid in these stories. The crazy thing is that we normally do stupid things in real life all the time so nothing that the characters did stopped this book from being good. The narration was pretty good. This book was given to me for my honest opinion and I thought this was a genuinely well written and well narrated story.

Engaging and Emotional Story!
Pointe of Breaking is an engaging and emotional story about a ballet dancer, Adeline, and Leo, a college student that has everything including secrets. They are drawn to each despite outside forces that try to keep them apart. The roller coaster ride that the authors create for us is exilerating, taking us through the love and heartbreaks and everything in between, including all the twisty turns, as Leo and Adeline find their to each other.
Valerie Gilbert was just wonderful as the narrator for this book. She had the ability to makes us feel all the emotional twisty turns from beginning to end.

Exhilarating and Sexy Romance!
This book captured me right from the start and never let go. Adeline has worked hard to get to where she is today. She has always wanted to dance but an innocent choice just may put her dreams at risk. Leo is drawn to this passionate, talented dancer and will do whatever it takes to make her his. Unfortunately his family secrets could ruin them both. This story is a rollercoaster of emotions that kept me totally engaged. Valerie Gilbert was a huge part of that. I was totally lost in her ability to bring these characters to life. The passion and inflection she used, especially when describing the emotional dance routines was thrilling.
I really liked both Adeline and Leo. They worked hard to be together when there were those who tried to keep them apart. Their journey wasn't easy and the twists and turns kept me totally engaged. If you are looking for a heartfelt, emotional, sexy romance, you will definitely love this audiobook!

Excellent, loved this!
Ballet seems to me to be a forgotten art and books like this always remind me what an incredibly sensuous dance it is. Amy Daws and Sarah J Pepper have crafted a story about love, tradition, elitism and friendship. Adeline and Leo have an instant attraction. Because of social classes, wealth and tradition , there are many obstacles these two have to overcome. So many well developed characters, Blake the one you love to hate along with Sasha and Felicia and good friends like Ivan and Chase give you a well rounded story. I have to say, there is definitely heart wrenching scenes, making your heart ache for the pair, but oh the hot ones that make you burn. This for me was an excellent listen.
Valerie Gilbert gave an incredible performance of this book. I love her ability to separate her characters and give just the right amount of inflection and emotion to s scene to make it believable.she always brings her best to the book and I look forward to her narrations.

Great Story with Good twist and turns!
Would you try another book from Sarah J. Pepper and Amy Daws and/or Valerie Gilbert?
I am a huge fan of Amy Daws so it's a def yes there and definitely from Sarah too. I will listen to Valerie again for sure. She has a great reading voice and it's very smooth and easy to listen to. My one complaint and it is a small one is that there wasn't always enough of a difference between her female voices and her male voices. Occasionally it felt like she slipped into the other one when she was still suppose to be in which ever. It wasn't a constant thing which is maybe why I noticed it more the few times it happened.
