Two years after escaping a horrible marriage with a controlling man, Vanessa Jared is still at loose ends. She was able to find dedicated friends at a divorce support group, and together they formed the Savvy, Sexy, Singles Club. Even with the support of her friends, however, Vanessa hasn’t been able to move on. Then an unexpected knock at the door sets her on a new adventure. Michael Park’s sister is engaged to Vanessa’s ex-husband, and Michael wants Vanessa to visit his small town and talk his sister out of going through with the marriage. Vanessa reluctantly agrees, and before she knows it, her overnight stay is extended, and a classic sexy romance ensues. Unfortunately, the audiobook of LaQuette’s (
One Night Expectations;
Backstage Benefits) latest novel suffers from occasional technical errors, including the mispronunciation of Korean words. Narrator Denise Wallace brings the heat, but she doesn’t consistently distinguish between characters.
VERDICT Despite minor issues with the audiobook, this interracial romance (Vanessa is Black, and Michael is Korean American) satisfies. A good purchase for libraries with patrons who love fun and steamy contemporary romances.
