About this listen

Damion West was the boy who stole my young heart and then broke it. That was a long time ago though and I'm not a girl susceptible to hot boys with big egos who just happen to kiss well anymore. He's the heir to West Enterprises, and notoriously loud on social media.

Everyone knows Damion West. Just not like I do. But that's another story better left untold.

I've worked with my parents' real estate firm catering to the rich and famous for years and I'm now one of the top agents in the country. Blue Enterprises is the name of our firm, which is also my name. Alana Blue. And now I'm on TV, the star of Selling in New York.

But every family has secrets. That's why I have the TV show I didn't really want. Nothing is real. Except him. Damion. He's real. So is my past with him. But it's the past.

Then one day I get called to a meeting by the studio head, it's all very secretive. Because it's not the studio at all, or actually, it is. The meeting is with him. It's with Damion West. And Lord help me, he's now sexier, and more arrogant than ever.

Also it turns out that what Damion wants from me isn't as simple as a real estate contract. But it's a contract all right.

Contains mature themes.

I think this could have been a good story. Did not really enjoy the narration, felt like a run on sentence everytime the female narrated. I Never enjoy a cliffhanger and do not appreciate when the book description does not clearly indicate book is part of a duet or trilogy. I did not enjoy the story enough to consider listening to the next one if there is one.

NOT impressed

Complicated 3.75 stars. There are flashbacks in the story but the writing is tight and there isn't lengthy lingering in the past. However, one flashback felt a bit disjointed and I think if there was more emotional layering it would have better developed the characters and created a greater attachment between reader and characters. (...thus, holding my attention better rather than being snapped out of the story world. ) Yet, there was one flashback that was brilliantly written. I did enjoy the characters and the story line but I think this series would have been better if it was presented as a duet and not a trilogy. It would have been more interesting if listeners / readers got a more procedural glimpse at how the story dilemmas would be solved a bit earlier in the series. Regardless,, I enjoyed this series and found it entertaining. The narration was fine.
