100 Lifetimes of Us

The Romantics, Book 1

By: Maggie Gates

Narrated by: Zhuyoh Wong, Charlotte Lobdell

Every good baker has secret recipes, but that's not the secret that could put Annie in danger.

To her quaint New England community, she's the sweet owner of Annie's Pies, but the world knows Annie Smith as someone else entirely.

When the threat moves closer to home, Annie must choose between life as she knows it or the unknown.

Miles Zhou is no stranger to a fight. A decade in the ring as an MMA fighter taught him a thing or two about adversity—and how to take down a threat quickly and quietly. He's the perfect addition to the executive protection team at Keller & Associates.

Playing bodyguard to a small-town baker shouldn't be a difficult job, but Annie Smith isn't sugar and spice and everything nice.

She's pies, lies, and in disguise.

Contains mature themes.

Amazing characters!

I LOVED Annie and Miles SO much! Their connection was beautiful. I’m a sucker for banter, and this book has tons. Sigh; totally swoon-worthy.

💗💗💗

Absolutely loved this story! Miles is golden retriever 100% and I loved Annie 💗 This audio was fantastic and for the characters so so well! Go listen/read this!!

What a fun read/listen!

From first page to last, this was such an awesome listen! I adored the story and I adored Annie/Whitney voiced by Charlotte Lobdell. She sounded just like I thought Annie/Whitney would. Young, funny, vulnerable, awkward and adorable. And the chemistry between Annie/Whitney and the sexy Miles Zhou created by Zhuyoh Wong felt spot on. I also now have a serious hankering for some fresh baked pie. Maybe blackberry. Maybe rhubarb. Nice job, Maggie Gates!

Annie Smith (aka author Whitney West) & Miles

This was quite a story with so many crazy moments and the realization that the way you thought your life might turn out, may be even better with someone unexpected by your side. I fell into the pages of Miles and Annie's story and was taken on an adventure full of excitement, twists, turns, banter, friendship, intrigue, a bit of terror and gut wrenching fear tucked in alongside. I. Loved. Every. Minute. Of. This. Book. It managed to surpass my expectations AND be nothing at all like I expected. Romantic Suspense at it's best. Five stars all the way.

Charlotte Lobdell & Zhuyah Wong do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality. They do more than giving their characters their voices, they fall into the roles and become the character. This was my first book with Charlotte & Zhuyoh and I absolutely loved them as Annie/Whitney & Miles! Both of them very quickly moved into to my Top 10 narrators!!!

Maggie can do no wrong!

Love this book! Narrators did fantastic! Can't wait to read more from these narrators!
