Publisher's summary

Sloane: Dominic Alexander is my late husband's best friend and the last man that I should want. For the last ten years, he's taken a sick pleasure in making me feel paper thin, like my existence is of no consequence to him at all.

But now, things are different.

After a drunken night, and a surprisingly sexy act of heroism, he's started to be . . . nice. Treating me like something other than the embodiment of his annoyance, which would be nice if it didn't make me feel things I swore to never feel for another man after my husband died.

Dominic: Sloane Kent is going to be my undoing.

What's worse: I think I'm going to enjoy being unraveled by the gold flecks in her hazel eyes and the way she scrunches her nose when we're arguing, which we've done a lot of over the past decade. She thinks it's because I hate her, and I've let her think that because the alternative is . . . untenable.

But something is changing between us, and I don't know how to stop myself from breaking every promise I've ever made to myself regarding my best friend's wife. Promises that include never telling her that there's a long list of things I feel about her, but hate isn't one of them.

Contains mature themes.

Good Book Poor Narrating

I really wanted to like this book more than I do, however the female narrator was VERY distracting, and at times pulled my attention away from the story. Like the other reviewers mentioned she sounds very robotic and like she is reading some sort of manual. No emotion. I thought I could get past it and it was a real struggle. Winston James performance was a great as always. I do hope to read/listen to other books by this author though.

THIS WAS SOO CUTE!

I love me a good love story and anything with my narrator, Bae Winston I'm sold 😍🥰

Keep listening, overall story is good.

The author did a great job with this story, however, had it not been for Winston James I would have not finished it. Bianca Drew did not do a good job narrating. Her tone was dry the majority of the book. The story and James performance is why I gave it a 4 overall.

oh my beating heart🥺💓

this book is one of the BEST books i’ve read. it’s DEFINITELY TOP 3!! the feels, the rawness, the pain, the heartache. it’s just all so real. J.L Seegars did an AMAZING job. i never knew i would root for Sloan’s late husband’s best friend! that’s crazy! they both had a rough past but Dominic NEVER gave up on her🥺. i absolutely loved this book!! i’m definitely getting a hard copy for sure!! this is an easy 5 star read!

I loved how long it was!!!

This book was steamy and really just great to listen to. I enjoyed it. Thank you!

Great content!

Excellent content! Loved the storyline. the female reader sounded robotic. That made it hard to get lost in the story. Other than that, it was worth the read.

This book was so riveting and romantic!

I love the characters and how the meaning of love was portrayed. Very good read.

Love Beating The Odds

This book was such a pleasant surprise; I enjoyed every minute. The background was described with visual clarity, I could actually see the details of the college campus; I could feel the struggle between Sloan and her mother. There was no down time in this book. It was laid out perfectly with a few surprises thrown in. ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Different but enjoyable

As most the lady narrator was not a good fit for this book. Wesleigh Siobhan or iikane would have been the better fit. The storyline was good, but the lady character had her annoying ways. Maybe a bit longer than need be.

That was an unexpected twist! I loved this story!

The FMC’s narration was a little cringy at times, but the story makes up for it. Dom, Dom, Dom!! He’s a man dreams are made of…swoon.
