About this listen

Foolish women fall in love with the bad boy.

Cane Alexander was bad boy personified.

Confident, he entered a room with his piercing blue eyes wearing a smug grin. He was the proverbial red flag wrapped up in a ridiculous set of abs.

I tried to resist him. After all, I was done being a fool.

Maybe it was his charm, or perhaps it was his persistence. Maybe it was how he entered my life and refused to leave. Whatever the reason, I fell for the one man I should’ve resisted.

Even though it made me a target.

I didn’t know if I’d become yet another notch on his bedpost or be the exception to his rules.

Or if I’d survive long enough to be either.

From USA Today Bestselling author Adriana Locke comes a tale full of twists and turns. Listeners who enjoy opposites attract, romantic suspense, and cocky heroes will enjoy this story.

Note: The Exception now includes an extended epilogue previously titled The Connection.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I really enjoyed this story and can’t wait for the next book. Cane Alexander was a really strong character that was easy to fall for. It kept my interest throughout which doesn’t always happen with this genre.

A great Listen

This is the first book Adriana wrote and for some reason this is the only series of hers and hadn't read until now but now I'm asking myself why! This book is amazing and you can't help but fall in love with Cane, made even better that he has the same birthday as me. This book has some mystery flung into the mix that makes you not want to put it down!

Wow!!

Excellent writing and story! The characters are so well developed - really feel like I got to know and understand Cane and Jada’s characters. Story pulled me in from the start - full of warmth, friendship and heat. Just so good - I need to read the next book in the series.

Narration:
I enjoyed the narration, but slow - speed up quite a bit.
Female narrator added an odd hesitancy/questioning sound to many sentences that was out of place and distracting. Overall, I loved listening to the audiobook.

Loved!

Adriana Locke is one of my go-to authors for feel-good, emotional romances with just the right amount of angst. And this book just solidifies that. Divorced heroine who didn’t even want a relationship falls in love with a bad boy. Alpha hero meets strong, independent woman. And for a reason unbeknownst to me I seem to have a knack for divorcee heroines. Who knew?
Fair warning, the hero does get together with another woman but it happens when there is no commitment at all between him and our heroine. Did I like it? Not at all. But it’s part of his character growth. Just trust Ms. Locke on this.

So … the audio. Samantha Brentmoor and Connor Crais are a fantastic narrator duo. I loved how they captured all the emotions and intonations just perfectly.

Beautiful!

Cane & Jada captured my heart a few years ago but when Addy announced she tweaked their story for this new audiobook I HAD to have it!!

I loved their story the second time around. Especially since the yummy Connor has given Cane his voice💪🏻🥃 He definitely gives Cane the edge that he deserves;) And I just love Samantha as Jada. She’s just the right amount of “don’t mess with me” and “I’m ready to live again”.

So excited for this audiobook 🖤
