Publisher's summary

August

My training? Professional.

My job? Hitman for a government organization.

And my next assignment? Infiltrate Marchand's crew.

Vague information, but a solid job. Why do I care?

Because this family "business" of crooks I'm investigating includes a Bajan little sister....

And she's the definition of sex on legs.

She's trouble, and I don't know if I can stay away.

Natalia

I lead a dangerous life, and so do my brothers. But when my kid sibling is saved by sexy, muscular August Reiss wearing that signature cocky smile, my gut tells me not to trust him. He's good to my brothers... but should I believe everything he says?

One thing's for sure. If my intuition is right, I'm going to put a bullet right between those gorgeous murky green eyes.

Great!

I enjoyed this book! The characters were from two different backgrounds which made me interested besides the point that I love Gregory S.! He did a great job with the female and male voices. The story starts off with action which pulls you in. I appreciated that Natalia wasn't a pushover - she was strong badass chic that looked after her family. August has a hard time accepting love due to his past and after being assigned to watch Natalia, he can't resist her! Loved Natalia's bajan accent and the fact that Auggie was a sexy ass cowboy. Great read!

August

August and Natalia is so amazing, I really did not think both of them would have said the magical words. I love that they can light a fire to any room just from the way they talk to each other. I’m just glad he got along with her brothers from the start. I find them to be a match made in heaven aside from the life they lead, it’s family that ultimately drives them. Above all I really adore Georgia, she is something else. She reminds me as a young Natalia.

As for the narrator he was amazing in reading this book and the voices he used for the characters was truly amazing.

Great listen/read

Great book. I was pulled right in and the characters, storyline, action and romance kept me captivated.
August and Talia are both such strong characters, you can definitely fell their connection. The secondary characters are also great, especially Grammie and Georgia. I feel like we need more time with August and Natalia.
New author for me and I will be checking out more of her work.

So the narrator made this book for me. I enjoyed all his voice work and growls. He definitely helped bring these characters to life and made this book an experience instead of just a read.

Good story, struggled with narration

The storyline itself was good. Couldve been awesome had it been coupled with a better narrator or done in male female duet. This narrator made it kinda hard to tell who the dialogue was coming from sometimes. I'd still suggest it be listened to tho.

I LOVED IT

I very much enjoyed reading this story, mainly because there IS a story. It's not just about the sex - which is super hot, no complaints there. And I appreciated that even though this is an IR story, race was not emphasized. It's just 2 people through the chaos of their life choices and circumstances who fell in love. Natalia sounds very much like many Caribbean women I know with the mothering and taking care of everyone in addition to being drop dead gorgeous! August sounds astoundingly sexy yet super possessive. Gregory Salinas did a great job with the character voicing. Not sure about the Caribbean accents but good enough. The only complaint I may have is the pronunciation of the word 'antithesis' as 'anti-THEE- sis. It happened 2x and it kind of yanked me out of my focus on the story both times. Other than that, kudos! I plan to read more books by Amarie Avant. Good job!

Love and Action

August came into Natalia's life just in time to save her. The action and the suspense in this book beyond my expectation. Natalia was one bad a$$ chick, but her family was her weakness. This has been one of the best BWWM books I have read in awhile. A must read.
