About this listen

A broken boy on the path to destruction. A scarred girl without direction. A love story carved in secrets, inked with pain, and sealed with a lie.

Grace Shaw and West St. Claire are arctic opposites. She is the strange girl from the food truck. He is the mysterious underground fighter who stormed into her sleepy Texan college town on his motorcycle one day and has been wreaking havoc since. She is invisible to the world. He is the town’s beloved bad boy. She is a reject. He is trouble.

When West thrusts himself into Grace’s quiet life, she scrambles to figure out if he is her happily-ever-after or tragic ending. But the harder she pushes him away, the more he pulls her out of her shell.

Grace doesn’t know much about anything beyond her town’s limits, but she does know this: She is falling in love with the hottest guy in Sheridan U. And when you play with fire - you ought to get burned.

what a beautiful story... the chemistry between the two, Gracie-Mae (Grace Shaw) and West St. Claire is absolutely amazing, the back n forward bites, their feelings for each others... n West's love, affection possessive towards Grace is like no other. Truely book boyfriend worthy... a totally must read. I fell in love with their love.

“Don’t break my heart so soon after putting it back together.”

“A king doesn’t bow to others.”

“He does for his queen.”

only wished there was a bonus epilogue mayb their wedding or honeymoon...

This was amazing! There were definitely points in this book where I wondered if Grace was going to make me annoyed at her by bending to West at points (read it and you will know exactly what I'm talking about), but luckily L.J. Shen didn't disappoint and made me almost fist bump everytime Grace remained strong and chose what was best for her! I totally cried in this book which was quite embarrassing as I was in a bus full of people when it happened (luckily I don't think anyone noticed, so dodged a bullet there 🤣). This book will totally take you on an emotional ride, but in the end you can definitely feel your heart melting with happiness! I would totally recommend this book! If you read the blurb and think you might like it then read it! I would highly recommend you listening to the audiobook with its amazing narration on both sides! Definitely an audiobook I do not regret buying! I hope you find you love it just as much as I do! Enjoy!
Overall: 5/5

This audiobook is a dual read between the MC’s and juggles the dialogue from male to female so well. The female narrator does such an excellent job of the Texan accent that it is endearing and the story? Prepare for all the angst.
