About this listen

She should say no. Addison Davenport figures that most people likely would. But after having her life plans repeatedly derailed, she's come to wonder if her chance at marriage and kids ended with the death of her college boyfriend. So when business powerhouse Daxton "Dax" Mercier—a man who's suffered a similar loss, a man who's her first in every way—asks her to honor the fallback marriage pact they made years ago, she doesn't reject it out of hand.

Their partnership would be no more than a business transaction, but what's the point in holding out for love when it had granted her no guarantees in the past?

Maybe they could make a marriage work. Maybe. One thing is for certain: with the wounds of loss heavy on their souls and the fact that he's given up on finding the big L again, friendship would be all they'd have.

Love would never enter their picture. Ever. Not even for a moment.

Right?

Contains mature themes.

While this is a stand-alone story in its own right, it brings in the next generation of previous stand-alone novels. Which lets you know that life has gone on without concentrating on them. Now back to this story, a brilliant multi layered story with ex partners popping up, some coursing trouble some just happy to have let go. With both still dealing with grief from the past they are finding it harder to trust and let go themselves. This book shows you how trust is built and a relationship develops as life happens. Great story, great narration Ivy Peterson has done an excellent job, it is the first time I have heard her and would happily listen to another. Of cause Suzanne Wright knows how to spin a good yarn, and this one does no disappoint.

What a fantastic story. I loved the the characters and the storyline. Susanne‘s books are always unique and individual. From the first page to the last you’re hooked I’m really hoping that some of the other secondary characters may in the future get a book too. The audible narration was excellent as well.

Great book

I simply love everything Suzanne writes, more partial to the shifter series, but these contemporary ones are also very nicely written. In some ways predictable once you've read all her books, but I don't mind that, they all are my comfort reads/listens. Narration was also very nice on this one.

Solid Suzanne Wright
