About this listen

A sexy agent hounds Wall Street's hottest new wolf in an exhilarating novel from New York Times best-selling author Lauren Layne. Ian Bradley is the definition of a Wall Street hotshot: seven-figure salary, designer suits, and a corner office. His drive off the floor is just as potent. Every woman who knows him has felt the rush. But now he's met his match in Lara McKenzie - a woman with the power to bring Ian to his knees. An ambitious, whip-smart daughter of FBI agents, Lara is a rising star in fighting white-collar crime. Her latest case - the investigation of Ian Bradley for insider trading - could make her career.

She knows a scoundrel when she sees one, and Ian fits the bill: a cocky, ridiculously handsome bad boy with a slick swagger. She'll do anything to prove he's guilty. He'll do anything to prove he's not. But it's only a matter of time before their fierce battle of wits gets oh so hot and personal. Now taking down Ian has become more than business for Lara. It's become a pleasure-and there's more at risk than she ever dreamed.

Narration

These two need to work together. It’s too hard to understand the characters when the two readers don’t share the characters but do them separately. Can’t work out who’s who!

Love love love this series

is it predictable, yes. Is it a great story that gives you everything you want. YES!
The characters are really well established in the first half of the book and from that point you know you'll be devouring the complete series.
TV off - looked for every opportunity I could to finish. Such a good book and series. Relatable, reliable, great characters. You won't be disappointed.

Caution R rating but totally loved it

Funny and totally enjoyable read. Great performance too except it is always not so easy for a woman doing a male part but great performance by Zachary. Loved the voice and character well played.

Loved it!!

This was my first book by Lauren Layne, and I truly enjoyed it. I loved Lara. She is a smart and intelligent woman with a wry sense of humour. Ian is a clever man who had a hard beginning in life, but he worked his hardest to get where he is today. The two hit it of to begin with. The chemistry between them was hot, the banter was funny, and the best friend's were spectacular. I am going to listen to the rest of the series now also.

The narrators did a wonderful job of bringing these characters to life. They were perfect.

Great Romance with mystery thrown in

Easy listening to a romantic book with the backdrop of insider trading. Mystery is whose pushing for an investigation into confirmed bachelor’s trading success. Of course lady investigator resists the charms of the stockbroker.

Thank you

TikTok

I would have enjoyed this more if the female narrator didn’t sound like she was computer generated text to talk like on a TikTok or Reel
