After the painful divorce from her husband, Reina Amari, wealthy mother of two, has lost her sense of self. No longer wife and homemaker, she feels low, lonely, and purposeless in her huge mansion in the Hamptons.

Her life suddenly changes when she meets Belle, her new pool technician, who brings back feelings long forgotten. Her emotions conflicted, Belle roars into Reina’s life like a storm; the calm waters now a thing of the past, and Reina has no idea how to deal with the situation.

Single mom Belle Rodgers services pools during the day and works for Hamptons’ Escorts a few nights a week. She loves giving her female clients the only thing their rich husbands can’t provide: an unforgettable night between the sheets. Belle’s number one rule is to not get emotionally invested, but when her secret crush Reina books her, that proves to be a tough challenge.

Between their differences in lifestyle and Belle having a less than conventional job, nothing is simple and they struggle to fight their undeniable chemistry. Can Reina come to terms with her sexuality? And can Belle find the trust to open herself up? Storms are beautiful, but they can also be destructive....

Engaging Story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. A depressed and isolated new divorcee takes a journey of self discovery as she hires a female escort, who is also her pool girl. Reigna is immediately smitten with Belle, much to her surprise. And Belle, the escort, is also smitten with Reigna. They navigate what they think is attraction and watch it develop to something more. Narrators Abby Craden and Tessa Stavers are fantastic in moving the story forward. Lise Gold and Madeline Taylor have written a gem. Definitely a good read!

Sweet Age Gap

Reina, a wealthy divorced woman who is lonely gets talked into finding some fun from an escort agency. Her pool girl is the escort. The road to finding love is hot and heavy. Excellent narration by Abby Craden and Tessa Stavers.

Abby’s voice was crazy good!

I have over 150 Abby Craden narrated books, and I have to say her voice was the best in this one! She only reads half the book, but it was so smooth and delectable! Definitely worth way more than a credit!

Love the book!

I’d read this before the audiobook came out and was uber excited Abby was one of the narrators. I ABSOLUTELY assumed she was Belle before listening because Abby’s voice is made for that type of character and was surprised when she was not! 🤦🏽‍♀️ It’s still a good performance by both narrators, I really just wish the roles were reversed. Still a great book and worth a listen!

Loved this!

Half good

Wish only Abby had narrated it. I cringed through every chapter that wasn’t her. Overall good book but, unfortunately, the other narrator really made me struggle.

Great Listen

I enjoyed this book and the different characters. I'm happy that it progressed nicely and didn't have a lot of drama.
