![]() I can’t see another doing her books at all. ![]() Callie Dalton narrates all MZ books since the second novel, and knows how to depict her characters perfectly. I read this in ebook format first, and this time I read along with the audio version. Another point they messed up who said what line, on over three occasions left out little things like how Rhodes would look at her or how he’d say things those details in slow burns are key! we love the little looks and smiles and to not add them into the audio book is sloppy editing and takes away from the story. ![]() In most cases they were minor things, not adding in the “he said/asked” it was always after he male narrator would speak and assumed it was for flow reasons and wasn’t something that bothered me, but then they also left a whole paragraph of Oras thoughts as well. I have no issues with the voice actors but while listening, I go to my kindle and highlight quotes I enjoy and in doing so i noticed that the narrators have left out words here and there. My only gripe is with the editing of the narration team. more than anything it made me want to take a road trip to CO and witness the beauty described in the book during her hikes. They characters are easily relatable and I always love a grumpy/sunshine dynamic. This book was charming and cute and had me marking quotes that hit close to home for me. ![]()

Sure, it's a little strange that he only appears in her bed at night, but Gwen is so sure he's the one, she just can't turn him away. He's hot, he's sexy, and what started as a no-names-exchanged night of passion has blossomed into a year and a half-long pleasure fest.
