Sailor Bishop has only one goal for his future – to create a successful landscaping business. No distractions allowed. Then he comes face-to-face and lips-to-lips with a woman who blushes like an innocent… and kisses like pure sin.
Ísa Rain craves a man who will cherish her, aches to create a loving family of her own. Trading steamy kisses with a hot gardener in a parking lot? Not the way to true love. Then a deal with the devil (aka her CEO-mother) makes Ísa a corporate VP for the summer. Her main task? Working closely with a certain hot gardener.
And Sailor Bishop has wickedness on his mind.
As Ísa starts to fall for a man who makes her want to throttle and pounce on him at the same time, she knows she has to choose – play it safe and steady, or risk all her dreams and hope Sailor doesn’t destroy her heart.

For review
My thoughts
At first I was unsure, for a few minutes, why, dunno, then I was caught in a wicked web. I loved the accents and I totally believed she was a man at times. But first the story.
Isa sees a hot gardener and wants to take a chance. Well I say you go Isa! Every girl should listen to that demon on their shoulder for once. She was there for everyone else, her entire family, but she forgot about herself. And I liked Isa, we would have been total bffs!
Speaking of Isa, I do wish Nayna and her man would get a story. See there is this backstory with Isa's friend when they go to a party and that story should totes have been a book of its own.
Sailor, oh he sounded hot hot hot as sin! Driven and hot *coughs*. He wants her and he is going for it. Yay. Awww he was such a sweetie!
Awww they were made for each other!
Conclusion:
I enjoyed it :D
I enjoyed it :D
Narrator Justine OKeef
Well like I said, she totally sounded like Sailor. And I liked her Isa accent too (as Isa grow up in Icelandic so it was this nice mix). And how does not want to listen to a NZ accent. If she did it right I do not know but I sure liked listening to her
I hear nothing but great things about this author! Happy Monday! Hugs...RO
ReplyDeleteShe is really good
DeleteI so need to read a book by Nalini Singh! This one sounds like a whole lot of fun. Glad you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteOmg you have not?
DeleteIsa sounds like a fantastic character! Love that she's not afraid. Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteShe was so fun
DeleteI've had bad luck with her contemps (the rock star one specifically) Maybe I should give this a try though.
ReplyDeleteFor What It's Worth
Hmm, I have not tried those
DeleteSo glad to see you enjoyed this one...despite the dreadful cover. ;)
ReplyDeleteI do not find it terrible
DeleteI am yet to read her books. I need to correct that error.
ReplyDeleteYes you must
DeleteThis isn't a series I've read yet but I'm glad that you enjoyed it. Especially since the female characters would sometimes sound like the male character.
ReplyDeleteI meant the narrator sounded like a man when she had to
DeleteGood to hear you enjoyed it, I love her paranormal books but haven't gone for her contemps.
ReplyDeleteI like those too
DeleteThis author is on my want to read/listen to list. Thanks Blodeuedd

DeleteI've not read Nalini Singh's contemporary romances, but I love her two paranormal series. I will try these one day. I think I've listened to this narrator before. I can't remember if I liked her or not.

At first like I said I did not know then I totally loved it.
DeleteI haven't read this author yet. I am always behind. This sounds like an audio worth picking up.
ReplyDeleteSo fun :D
DeleteI read this one and I liked it, but it was slow to start and Isa was a bit wishy-washy for me for a while. I'll still try the next one in this series.
ReplyDeleteAUdiobook is such another experience, and sometimes I do think that if I had read it..well, I do not think I would have liked it as much ;)
DeleteLove Nalini Singh! This sounds like something I'd love. Glad to hear the narrator was good, too. :)
ReplyDeleteI am happy to have tried this by her too
DeleteI still need to read Nalini Singh...
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
Looks like I can look forward to a good one. I still have to read her rocker romances, too.
ReplyDeleteI should have a freebie around
DeleteI still haven't tried any of Singh's books.
