Publisher's summary

Olivia Kaspen has just discovered that her ex-boyfriend Caleb Drake has lost his memory. With an already lousy reputation for taking advantage of situations, Olivia must decide how far she is willing to go to get Caleb back.

Wrestling to keep her true identity and their sordid past under wraps, Olivia's greatest obstacle is Caleb's wicked new girlfriend Leah Smith. It is a race to the finish as these two vipers engage in a vicious tug of war to possess a man who no longer remembers them. But, soon enough Olivia must face the consequences of her lies, and in the process discover that sometimes love falls short of redemption.

Definitely worth 5 stars

Olivia Kaspian doesn’t understand how to love, till she meets Caleb Drake, but she is afraid to commit. No matter how hard Caleb try’s to get Olivia to show her feelings she continually backs away. Caleb finally calls her bluff, he has her back but a still reluctant Olivia won’t give him her heart and he finally gives up and moves on to Leah his second choice, Leah seizes her opportunity and move in with a crushing blow to both Olivia and Caleb.
This is a love to hate or hate to love story, either way Andi Arndt does a fab job narrating.
You have to read or listen, make your own decision, love Caleb hate Olivia or hate Caleb love Olivia.
Did they belong together in the first place or did they get cheated out of their happiness?

One of my favorite books ever!

If you could sum up The Opportunist in three words, what would they be?

Unique, Emotional, Angst

What other book might you compare The Opportunist to and why?

Not possible - The Opportunist is in a league of its own.

Have you listened to any of Andi Arndt’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was my first time listening to Andi and it started the love affair I have with her. She does a great job and has a wonderful voice.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

“You can only give your heart away once, after that, everything else will chase your first love” - Olivia Caspen

Any additional comments?

The Opportunist is beyond words for me - the writing is flawless and I have never felt this kind of angst before and everything about this book completely exceeded any and all of my expectations.

Another excellent Andi Arndt performance!

Well, this is certainly not your average love story! I bounce back and forth between being saddened by the heroine's actions and getting drawn in and awed by her raw honesty. All around fantastic!

Loved It!

I loved the story of Caleb and Olivia. It kept me on my seat wanting to see what was going to happen next between these two. It was frustrating at times but I was always rooting for Caleb and Olivia to find each other again for good. Well written, enjoyed the narration too. Not my preferred ending but 2 more books so I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I recommend the love story of Caleb and Olivia.

Interesting Characters

Olivia is a twisted girl who distrusts men. She is pursued by Caleb who seems to be a pretty great guy. She pushes him away but when he drops her, she suddenly wants him back. She is a person who will do just about anything to get what she wants and eventually they end up together. She still distrusts him and that eventually leads to her doing something so destructive to their relationship that there is no coming back from it.

Later, she sees him in a record store but he doesn't recognize her because she has amnesia. Instead of coming clean about who she is, she begins a new relationship with him. Without giving away the entire story, this does not end well and she leaves him.

Over a few years, they are pushed together and pulled apart. I think that if you only read this book, it ends well and could be fine without reading the next two in the series. However, there is a sample of Dirty Red at the end of this book which sucks you right in to the next story. If you read/listen to it, you have to read all three.

I loved Caleb. He's handsome, charming, rich, and wants to be in love and have children. He is manipulated by two damaged women. Olivia is complicated. I hated her and liked her all at the same time and if you like her, you have to hate Leah because you want Olivia and Caleb together.
