The sweetest lies are the most seductive… Eleven years ago, I fell in love with Alex Thorne. He was beautiful, charming, sexy, and the best lover I'd ever had. He's also a bloody liar. Every word that comes out of his mouth is a half-truth, a con, or an evasion. Now I find out my dream job at a university in America is his way of pulling me back into his world. I will never, never fall under the spell of the British Bastard again. Catriona MacTaggart is the one that got away. The Scottish lass has fire in her soul and in her eyes, especially when she punches me. I can handle that. Maybe the truth and I do have a different sort of relationship, but I've never lied about my feelings for Cat. I'll do whatever it takes to get her back, even if it means deceiving her. Alex still knows exactly how to get under my skin, and despite all my intentions, I still can't resist that body and that smile. Maybe it's time I turn the tables and seduce the seducer, to finally solve the mystery he doesn't want me to unravel. Who is Alex Thorne?

This was my first Anna Durand book and it's book 8 in the series. I feel like it might have been beneficial to have read/ listened to the other books in the series first to fully understand the dynamics of the family as some things happen that had me really scratching my head as to why.
This is a second chance romance with a little suspense thrown in. At the start, I thought it was going to be enemies to lovers but nothing really came of that aspect. It was more a rekindling of a relationship.
I wish there was more of a bridge between how the characters felt to begin with and their change of feelings. It was like they both had a huge shift without any cause or explanation for it. That being said, the chemistry was certainly there and could be steamy to say the least.
Shane East and Elle Newlands narrate. I thought Elle's performance of Cat was fantastic, but unfortunately, this is one of those cases where I think a duet would have been much better. Her male voice and British/ American accents really took me out of the story, it was very jarring. Shane's performance was brilliant and his transitions between accents and gender was smooth. The production was great with no issues.
