Listen up, folks! Prepare yourselves for a wild ride with this audiobook narrated by the talented Emily Beresford. Now, I must admit, this one got a lukewarm rating of 2.2 out of 5, but don't let that deter you just yet. We've got a total length of 7 hours and 45 minutes to dive into the captivating world crafted by J. R. Ward.
Our main man, Gray Bennett, is as ruthless as they come. You know, the kind of guy who commands attention when he opens his mouth, especially among the power players in Washington, D.C. But lo and behold, Gray isn't back in his sleepy old town of Saranac Lake to engage in political shenanigans. Oh no, he's got bigger fish to fry. A tragedy has struck our unshakeable hero, leaving him reeling to his very core.
And brace yourselves, because here comes the game-changer. The leading lady in this story is none other than the unassuming Joy Moorehouse. She used to be that cute little redhead who scurried around the Moorehouse B and B, completely unnoticed by Gray. But my, oh my, has she transformed. The girl is now a fiery-haired siren with curves that could make any man weak in the knees. Yet, dear listeners, Gray believes Joy to be too pure, too innocent for a cynical soul like his. So he puts up walls, refusing to touch her... until that fateful night when temptation becomes too much to bear. It's in that moment that Gray unravels a secret so mind-blowing, it'll leave you gasping for air and thirsting for more.

Ward has concocted for us. So sit back, relax, and let Emily Beresford whisk you away with her narration.
