Crooked

By: Vi Keeland, Penelope Ward

Narrated by: Andi Arndt, Aiden Snow

A new, sexy standalone with DUET narration from New York Times Bestsellers Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward

The last thing I needed was a live-in bodyguard. And I definitely didn’t want him. Six foot two, with broad shoulders that were impossible to ignore and a talent for getting in my way, Wes Callahan was a walking bad decision.

But when you’re the daughter of a notorious mob boss, apparently your opinions stop mattering the moment your father ignites another war. I’d spent my entire life trying to escape that crooked world—new name, new city, newfound freedom. At least until I was suddenly shacked up with my new bodyguard.

Wes knew exactly how to push my buttons. He was also infuriatingly protective. And smart. And funny. And thoughtful when he thought I wasn’t paying attention. Little by little, the walls I’d built started to crack, and falling for the bodyguard became the most dangerous thing I’ve ever done. Because if my father found out, Wes wouldn’t just lose his job. He’d lose his life.

Getting involved with him was reckless, yet I couldn’t find a way to stop it, no matter how hard I tried. But while I was busy losing my heart, the man who took it was hiding a secret.

And it turned out, the most dangerous man in my life wasn’t my father after all—it was the one who threatened to break my heart.

Slow burn

Well, this story had me on the edge of my seat. The narrators were awesome.
The story was really good and honestly, I did not want to stop listening to it.

Only OK

This author has a nice imagination for story lines. This one didn’t entertain me as much as usual. The voices were good. I was frustrated with some dialogues.

This is a very surprising story.

This is my absolute favorite of their books! Great characters, engaging and surprising storytelling and the voices were perfect. Loved it!
