Ready to launch her own design business, perfectionist and chronic workaholic Alba Duarte, the eldest daughter of Dominican immigrants, finally turns in her notice to ice king and unfairly gorgeous real-estate mogul Theo Ganus. She hoped he would at least show a hint of a reaction, but alas, she only gets a barely audible “okay” and a “can you hand me a towel” as the former Olympic swimmer carries on, taking his ridiculous demands and frosty demeanor with him. But then Theo shows up in Texas to co-host a popular renovation TV show—the same show that has hired Alba, who is working hard to make her Instagram-famous bookish bedroom makeovers her full-time job. Theo has always been in love with Alba, and now that he’s no longer her boss, he’s determined to win her heart.
VERDICT An excellent contemporary romance made even better by listening. Narrators Lola James and Sean Crisden bring this steamy and sensually charged story to life, both vividly realizing Alba’s and Theo’s respective accents and the other characters in the story.
