About this listen
Daniel’s hot and cold behavior has gone too far for Emma to handle. Her focus needs to be on Delacourt Designs and not on an affair that wrecks her heart. Pulling away from Daniel is painful, but necessary, though it puts her in closer proximity to Nick, the one who helped her when Daniel walked away. As their working relationship blossoms into strange feelings, Emma starts to wonder if her happy ending won’t be with Daniel after all.

Boredom and booze inspire Jac Lanier to accept an unusual wager from her best friend to seduce Lauren Blaine, a beautiful coworker, within a month. One small problem: The woman is straight. Not to mention engaged. And a complete stranger. Nonetheless, Jac is pretty confident that she'll win. Naturally, her plan goes awry - after all, if you sow an onion seed, you won't harvest a peach. Will Jac reap the bitter fruit of her games when the truth comes out? Will Lauren turn the tables on her?

Story
Change is not Jenny Quinn's strong suit, but she's happy enough with her easy-going life, friends, and job as a TV production assistant. That is until a company shake-up foists the infuriating Olivia Sinclair on her. The woman is uptight, snobby, and has some perfect and famous motor-racing husband. TV and theater producer Olivia moved to New York from the UK to marry her longtime friend. It's a sham marriage, a favor to a man she loves as a brother, but the strain is beginning to take its toll.

Are you kidding me??
Emma continues to be a selfish immature shrew. She blames everyone but herself for her problems. Poor Damion is the person I have the most empathy for. Unrequited love , and that silly trollop is too blind to see anything. If she continues on her present path of ruin she deserves what she gets. How can I despised Em any more than I do now ? Answer in the next book. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

wow oh wow
these guys in this book all need to figure their crap out. there is so many twists and turns that it is hard to keep things straight. and poor Emma is just dangling. I have one more book/volume sonim hoping Emma gets the right guy. I'm pulling for Nick, but who knows. Anyways I did receive this book as a gift from the author in exchange for an honest review. and I highly recommend it.

Designing Emma - Volume 5
Hurt feelings and lack of communication... that what I feel it all boils down to. Now with another twist it looks like things may get worse before they hopefully get better.
With Clarissa Carlyle’s writing and Laurie West’s narration, you’re in for an entertaining experience.
