Publisher's summary
Escaping the past is hard. Living in the present is harder.
Monti Schroeder is on a quest for peace. She has been since the moment she was born. But peace has remained elusive.
Living as a nomad, she takes work where she can get it. When her sister calls with a favor for her neurotic boss, Monti agrees to it for a few extra bucks. What Monti finds when she arrives is a woman just as broken as she is. And no matter what, she can't leave Athena to flounder on her own.
Athena Pruitt has made it through the last twenty-two years with one rule: Avoid everything uncomfortable. Her house has become her prison, and she is desperate for respite. Unable to handle physical touch, she's wary when her personal assistant hires a "special" masseuse who can help. But Monti isn't a typical massage therapist.
Each day, each massage, each moment Monti and Athena spend together they unravel just a little more. With wells of trauma and pain filling both to the brim, just what will happen when their vessels break?
Will Monti find peace? Will Athena learn to live without shame? Will they both mend their brokenness beyond repair?
Shameless Expectations is a book that crosses boundaries to find healing, a sapphic age-gap novel that explores deep trauma and the potential for healing decades later. If you're looking for a book that touches on hope and explores PTSD through the lens of romance, this is it.

Margo faces the real possibility of returning home to Minnesota in defeat. That is until a friend suggests a crazy solution: pose as his cousin's fiancée for a family wedding in Hawaii and earn some cold, hard cash.

When six childhood friends get together for their annual girl's weekend at the beach in Port Aransas, none could have believed it would be for the very last time. Nina Evans had been saddled with organizing the weekend each year, pulling five of her oldest friends together for a few nights of fun and reminiscing, the one time a year they saw each other. Each year was much the same—laughter, dancing, and lots of drinking. This time was no different. That is, until Jones walked out of the dance club with a stranger.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

It’s been over a year since Cassidy Miller retired from the United States Marine Corps, but try telling that to her nightmares. She knew that coming back after eight years in a war zone wouldn’t be easy, but she’d underestimated the real difficulties of transitioning back to civilian life. War is hell, but the aftermath is endless. Looking for a fresh start, she’s left her friends and career in Minneapolis to be a police officer in northern Minnesota. It’s in the tiny town of Embarrass where she learns more about Julia Desjardin.

When a down-on-her-luck costumer agrees to a fake relationship for quick cash, the last thing she expects is to fall for a celebrity she despises. Margo Wells hates everything about Hollywood. Especially actors. But she loves her job as a wardrobe supervisor, until a spoiled film legend has her fired for an accident on set that wasn’t even her fault. Margo faces the real possibility of returning home to Minnesota in defeat. That is until a friend suggests a crazy solution: pose as his cousin's fiancée for a family wedding in Hawaii and earn some cold, hard cash.

Painful yet beautiful
I thought this book did a beautiful job show two different women battling their own traumas but wanting to overcome them both individually and also for the other person.
I would give it a 3.5/5 on the spice level. There are several sex scenes, most of them are a decent length and descriptive.

Not what I was expecting
I tend to steer clear of books with trauma, either fictional or not. The fact Lori Prince was apart of the narration is what got me through it. I was worried before each chapter what I was about to hear. After getting through the story however it really is quite a remarkable journey for both women.

Moving, heavy, and erotic. Perfect narration.
There are moments in this that feel so raw and charged, you can actually feel the swell of love, trust, and lust. Beautiful, cleansing, hopeful, healing. Lovely performance from two fantastic, seasoned narrators.

Great story with two of the best voices.
I was looking for a story exactly like this. I never know what to write because I don't want to give spoilers. I loved the two main characters and the narrators are two of my favorite. If you enjoy this author already you'll love this story.

TRIGGER WARNING
This one sould come with a BIG WARNING. I haven't finished, 2.5 hours left. As much as I love Adrian's books, as I've bought all of them, this one has left me hurting inside. I unfortunately relate to Athena, and have some of the same scars, both physical and mentally. I avoid books that focus on rape and beating of women. This one delves on what happens after the rape. The emotional baggage and healing or lack there of. To much heavy and not enough light, although there was healing throughout the book for both MCs.
Do I recommend this one? Yes to those of you who want a well written book with a lot of emotions. Those who have scars that deal with abuse be aware.
Narration was excellent!!!!
