About this listen

Stefan Dalca is infuriatingly handsome. And annoyingly persistent. We’re supposed to hate each other. But apparently he didn’t get the memo, because he’s been asking me out for years.

And I always say no. Until today.

Today he has something that I desperately need. Today he’s a savior, and I’m his prize.

Our time together starts out as a simple transaction. Three dates. No touching. No telling anyone. And definitely no falling in love.

But with every intimate conversation, and each stolen glance, the tension between us builds.

The way he looks at me gives me butterflies. And when he finally touches me? We sizzle.

Stefan makes me feel seen in a way no other person has before. He cherishes my words as passionately as my body.

He makes me laugh. He makes me blush. He calls me kitten.

He’s not the villain he’s been made out to be.

And suddenly I find myself longing for him in a way the people closest to me wouldn’t approve of or understand.

Giving in to Stefan Dalca is playing with fire.

But with him I don’t even mind the heat.

I love a misunderstood MMC, and this one exceeded my expectations. The banter, the teasing, the spice, and the fake dates were perfection. I loved how hard Stefan fell for Mira.

“You are not the pawn, Mira. You are the prize.”

Loved this book. The development of their relationship, the drama at the end I didn’t see coming. Thought it was better than book 2 in the series. Another win for Elsie!

I loved this story and the series so far. I was super hesitant reading this one because of the way Stefan was portrayed in the first two books, but I am glad I did.
Let’s be honest, I listened to it because Zachary narrated the MMC!

Great story

I love this story so much! I was curious to see how this book was going to go especially since the way Stefan is portrayed in the first two books makes him seem like a villain but in reality he’s just a very misunderstood man. I was so excited for Mira, every glimpse of her in the first two books made me so sure I was going to love her and I do!

I love Mira and Stefan’s journey, and this book was immaculate <3

This book was sooo beautiful and so well written!
I was moved to tears with the intimate moments and the connections, especially towards the end. Such a lovely touching story. It had romance, spice, chemistry, with and lots of pain that was brought to the surface to be healed. Argh my heart! It was so good!
Loved the narrators though would have liked them to leave out the accent. But it was still amazing reading. Looking forward to reading the next book!

Just wow!

This book knocked the wind out of me. How do I operate in reality when Mira and Stefan are wandering around in here?

Oof
