About this listen

People say I'm shameless. They're right.

I like my sex dirty. It takes a hell of a lot to tilt my moral compass, and I always follow when it's pointing at something I want. That goes double when it points straight at the one girl in all of Chicago who's not dying for a piece of me.

She's all I can think about, and that's a problem, because she wants nothing to do with me. But I've seen her deepest secrets, her darkest fantasies, and they match mine to a fucking T.

I want her. Bad.

Now I need to show her how good it can feel...to be shameless.

Contains mature themes.

I don't know what I was thinking.

So it's not bad but I really wasn't expecting it to have so much 🌽 in it. though tbh I didn't read any reviews and I went in blind.

if that's what you like then go nuts

❤️‍🔥 Fabulicious

Came across this spicy short read in the plus catalogue. It was a great find -While the story theme is a little far fetched it was an incredibly fun read. A case of mistaken identity leads to all the feels for me that I didn't know i needed. A re read for sure - . With Giggles out loud😂 and Scorchin Hot ❤️‍🔥

It’s been a long time coming.

I was so excited when I heard the Playboys 4 Hire Series was being released on audible. I’ve loved this series since it’s release.
The best bit is Gina L Maxwell has been able to secure great narrators for your listing pleasure.
Great story. Lil bit naughty and a lil bit fun. Great supporting characters who have their own books and soon will have their own audiobooks 🙌🥳

Dual Narration Review: Key Points Without Spoilers

The first thing you want to know, is that this is a DUAL audiobook. Please read the end of this review for an explanation into Single, Dual, Duet, Full and Dramatized narration explanations.

Please note that while I aim to be objective about the story and performance, I’m not a fan of dual narration, and that preference inevitably affects my review.

✨ Overall Opinion: This was a free audiobook, a quick listen, and if you enjoy the tropes listed below or don’t mind dual POV narration, Shameless might be worth a try. Will I re-listen? No. Will I continue the series? Also no. Do I regret listening? No—it served its purpose as a light, easy listen.

✨ Series Info: Complete 3-book series
✨ Tropes: Contemporary romance, adult, fiction, erotica.
✨ Spice: Detailed and not fade-to-black

✨ Narration: Since this was free with my Audible subscription, I went in blind. When I realised it was dual narration, I was initially disappointed and even considered dropping it. However, I decided to stick with it since it was a short listen. It turned out to be a decent companion while multitasking today. Would I have rated it higher if it had been duet narration? Absolutely—but that’s entirely due to my personal preferences.

✨ Performance: I wasn’t completely sold on the female narrator for Jane, but I didn’t dislike her either. The male narrator’s deep voice for Chance was enjoyable and added to the character’s appeal. Despite my bias against dual narration, I was able to stay immersed in the story and follow along with the characters.

🎧 Narration Explanations 🎧:

❌ Single Narration: One narrator voices the entire audiobook, performing all characters and narration.

❌ Dual Narration: Two narrators share the storytelling, often alternating chapters or sections, with each performing all the dialogue and action for their assigned parts. For example, in a chapter from Tory’s POV, her narrator voices not only Tory’s thoughts and narration but also Darius’s dialogue. Similarly, in a chapter from Darius’s POV, his narrator handles all the narration and dialogue, including Tory’s lines.

✅ Duet Narration: Two narrators perform together throughout the audiobook, each consistently voicing specific characters during both dialogue and narration. For example, in a chapter from Aly’s POV, her narrator will handle the narration, but if Josh is speaking to Aly, then Josh’s narrator will voice all of Josh’s spoken dialogue and vice versa.

✅ Full Cast Narration: A group of narrators performs the audiobook, with each actor voicing a specific character. Sometimes voicing multiple characters, but when done well, each voice is distinct enough for the listener to easily differentiate between them.

✅ Dramatized Narration: The audiobook includes voice actors for each character, sound effects, and music, resembling a radio play or audio drama for an immersive experience. Due to the inclusion of these elements, dramatised versions often condense or adapt the original text, resulting in shorter runtime compared to standard audiobooks.
