Dirty Headlines

By: L.J. Shen

Narrated by: Jacob Morgan, Grace Grant

Célian Laurent. Manhattan royalty. Notorious playboy. Heir to a media empire...and my new boss.

I could have impressed him, if not for last month's unforgettable one-night stand.

I left it with more than orgasms and a pleasant memory - namely, his wallet.

Now he's staring me down like I'm the dirt under his Italian loafers, and I'm supposed to take it.

But the thing about being Judith "Jude" Humphry is I have nothing to lose.

Brooklyn girl.

Infamously quirky.

Heir to a stack of medical bills and a tattered couch.

When he looks at me from across the room, I see the glint in his eyes, and that makes us rivals.

He knows it.

So do I.

Every day in the newsroom is a battle.

Every night in his bed, war.

But it's my heart at stake, and I fear I'll be raising the white flag.

Amazing

When I listen to an LJ Shen book, I know I am in for a treat. This books in not only steamy, but smartly written and has a real life feel to it. Celian, the boss, smart, good looking and wealthy only looks for one night stands. Jude needs an escape from her life, her family responsibilities and just a good time. When these to hook up though, it's so much more than that. I loved this book for several reasons. The chemistry between the characters is off the charts. It makes the listen easy and smooth. The real life problems, including grief and despair as well as health and financial hits so many categories that each one is easy to relate to. It doesn't matter the class of the character, we all have similar problems, and Shen shows us this with her masterful writing.

The narration is amazing. Grace Grant is perfect with her depiction of Jude. She gives her that shield up feeling, and has it melt flawlessly as the story goes on. Jacob Morgan gives that sexy, aloof feel of Celian, until he doesn't and you have fallen for him. It's an incredible performance.

So much win

This book is hilarious, swoony, and hot. This is one of my favorite books by this author.

Loved!

Loved this book! Loved the story telling, loved the twist that I didn’t see coming, loved everything about it.

Good tension, too little sex

Wish there were more sex scenes, and that the main character got at least a LITTLE make over at some point. Love Jacob Morgan’s narration.

Great listen!

This book was hot but most importantly it was SOOOO funny. Jacob Morgan is my favorite narrator and he really brought Celian to life! I was rooting for him, then her (Jude}, then Celian, again. The audio was great. I was in awe of how well he narrated this story. I love reading all of L.J.'s novels and I hope this series continues with the other characters in this book. I highly recommend it!
