About this listen

A new, sexy standalone from #1 New York Times Bestseller, Vi Keeland.

He lives by a set of rules. She might be his one exception.

I just wanted a distraction, something to take the edge off before facing a wedding I was dreading. So on the flight back to New York, I signed up for a dating app. Harmless enough, right?

Wrong.

Turns out, it wasn’t just any app—it catered to people with very specific tastes. By the time I realized it, I was already on my date.

Tall, confident, and sinfully handsome, Jagger Langston seemed like the full package. The chemistry between us was instant—electric enough to burn the whole city down. Though things took a turn when we figured out I’d misunderstood who should join the app. We laughed it off, said goodbye, and went our separate ways.

Or so I thought.

Until I walked into my new internship Monday morning, ready to put the weekend behind me, and there he was—my boss.

Now I’m caught between the rules he lives by—and the temptation to make him break every single one of them.

I found this story really compelling. Their love felt real. There was a crime aspect that I don’t usually like but it was minimal and added to the story in a positive way. A slightly dark romance in that they’re good people who are victims of others.

A little bit of a dark romance

When I get a notification that Vi Keeland has a new story coming out soon, that's always great news. But when I see that same story is going to be narrated by Sebastian York and Andi Arndt...well that's just perfection. Loved the story from start to finish.

Srambled to pre-order this one!
