About this listen

Five Carly Classics from the bestselling Simply Series in one hot bundle!

Simply Sinful

He’s not the man she thought he was. But when danger lurks, he’s the man she needs.

Any rookie on the force could verify if Charmed! is a legit etiquette school for businessmen, or … something else. But coming off a wrenching drug bust, Detective Kane McDermott’s captain gave him a choice. Take the fluff case, or take enforced time off.

The moment Kane meets Kayla Luck, he’s in trouble. Dinner out leads to a hot night in bed, and Kayla falls hard and fast. Until she learns the business suit hides a badge, and she calls it quits. But Kane’s already lost his heart—and discovered she’s in danger. And if he can’t convince her she’s safe with him, he’ll lose the woman he loves.

Simply Scandalous

He runs in high society circles … and he’s running circles around her heart.

Logan Montgomery has found his niche as an assistant district attorney. But Gran just revealed some worrying intel—dad and his political cronies are about to maneuver him into running for mayor.

But Gran has a plan: a pre-emptive strike involving a pretty blonde caterer with supple curves—and a family history literally dripping with scandal. There’s just one flaw in her scheme: Logan’s not a player. And there’s a delicious spark of attraction that makes him want to try for something special with Catherine Luck.

Raw desire and genuine affection tip them into forbidden territory—love. Until Catherine gets a stark reminder that the Montgomerys never do anything without an ulterior motive.

Simply Sensual

Do the job. Take the money and run. Until, in a flash, love changes everything.

In retrospect, Ben Callahan should have known this job was trouble. Way more than his normal PI fee and unlimited expenses, just to watch over one woman and report back? Alarm bells should have sent him running back to New York. But with his Mom needing assisted living care, Ben takes Emma Montgomery’s tempting offer to watch over her granddaughter.

Then he meets Grace Montgomery, a golden-haired princess. Gifted, gorgeous, reckless. As Grace sheds her inhibitions faster than a high-speed shutter, Ben finds himself breaking his own rules for a woman full of unexpected secrets and thousand-watt sensuality. But when Grace discovers who’s signing Ben’s paycheck, her heart could be too broken for his love to repair.

Body Heat

NYC summer days are hot. Nights are even hotter …

Not much has stirred Detective Jake Lowell’s interest since a perp put a bullet in his shoulder, killed his partner, then walked on a technicality. Until a sexy waitress at a tiny neighborhood café catches his eye.

Working two jobs, Brianne Nelson never expected to do more than fantasize about Mr. Tall, Tanned, & Gorgeous. But when her new physical therapy client turns out to be the man who fuels her fantasies, she realizes she’s going to be seeing a lot more of him—in the flesh—than she bargained for.

It’s not long before skin-on-skin contact turns into a hot summer fling. But the killer Jake is after isn’t going down without a fight, and more than their hearts could get caught in the crossfire …

Simply Sexy

It all started with a not-so-innocent sprig of mistletoe …

When his adoptive father, Joe, falls ill, globetrotting news reporter Colin Lyons doesn’t hesitate to drop everything to fly home and take over Joe’s baby, the Ashford Times. He’s only got until New Year’s to save this sinking ship, and to do that, he needs an ally. Rina Lowell, new to Ashford, is the perfect target to help him, even if it means the job she loves will be cut in the end.

He never expected one kiss to take his simple plan to save the Times and tie it into impossible knots … and possibly cost him the woman he loves.

Note: These titles were originally published in 2000–2002 by Harlequin Temptation, Blaze. They appear here in their original glory, without substantial revision.

Not the best narrator

I like Carly’s books but these were progressively thin on content from first to last. Could just be i did not click with narrator so it took me a while to listen to whole series.

Don’t do it

The story is not bad at all but the narrator is just awful. I made it through 3 1/2 books before I just didn’t care about the story anymore.

Ear noise

Character definition, the storyline was strictly an outline, for all the books. I love the author's other work. This however, was not it. Also the narrative was weak though I don't think Sean East could have breathed life into this. It was ear noise.

Great light read

A very nice series involving stories that intertwined. Romantic and just the right kind of sexy without over doing it.

good series. some were a miss for me but good

Simply Sinful- {Kane & Kayla} (triggers: assault, prostitution, mental health). I didn't really like this book as much as I do the other books by this author. Though I found the concept intriguing, the story itself was slow. It's also not as steamy as previous books. Both of the characters I found annoying on some level. I only hope the next book in the box set is better.

Simply Scandalous: Logan & Catherine: I didn't like this book that much. It was kind of boring. No real antagonist and the heroine just kept going back and forth about being with Logan. Catherine is Kayla's sister from the previous book. She meets Logan while working an event at Logan's family's home. Logan knows immediately that he wants her but she knows that she can't have him. The story is hot and has some funny moments but that's it. It's just kind of blah.

Simply Sensual- Ben and Grace. The matriarch of the family is at it again, trying her best to set up her granddaughter with the hot p.i. Ben meets with Emma under the impression that he's hired to keep an eye on Grace while living in New York to make sure she's ok. Grace, younger sister to Logan, is trying hard to make it on her own without the Montgomery money. She has a full time job and likes taking pics in the park. Only someone has threatened her and her hot new neighbor isn't having it. Once again, I'm not really into this book. It wasn't really exciting. It felt like Grace was throwing herself at Ben and Ben even though he wanted her kept going back and forth because of his job. It was very much similar to the previous book.

Body Heat- Jake & Brianne. Triggers- sexual assault, drugs, assault. This fourth book in the series was definitely different but just didn't quite hit, for me. The story was just kind of slow and the end was very anticlimactic considering the dramatic buildup. Once again there's a pushy family member focusing on setting up her brother and who is better than the physio therapist who doubles as a waitress. Brianne is hired thinking she's there to provide therapy to Jake. Jake is a cop, who is currently out on medical after getting shot. Though that's not stopping him from trying to catch the drug dealer who shot him. I didn't really feel a connection with these two and the story was kind of slow. The narrator was terrible this time. Very monotone for both characters.

Simply Sexy- Colin & Rina: so I have to say that this book was the most boring out of the whole series. So Emma is up to her shenanigans again but this time she has a job at a newspaper writing a dating column for the elderly. Here we meet Colin, who's working to save the paper his adopted father owns and Rina, another journalist writing dating advice. Rina is recently widowed and trying to get back on the horse again with a hookup and Colin is just the man. Colin shies away from commitments especially since his wife left him. But he's definitely interested in hooking up with Rina. I didn't really feel a connection with these two characters and honestly I was more interested in Emma's love interest. I do have to say the small love scenes we got had some steam. It was nice to see characters from previous books and there's definitely some humor, I just didn't like this one. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Poor narration

Narrator made all male characters sound mentally challenged at best. Tempo made following story hard to follow and painful to finish. I’ll do better at noticing narrator’s name in future and avoiding
