Flash

By: Jayne Ann Krentz

Narrated by: Barbara Garrick

A self-made millionaire. A sassy entrepreneur. Their corporate merger might just set the night on fire in this electrifying thriller from the perennial bestselling author of the Fogg Lake series Jayne Ann Krentz.

Olivia Chantry may leave her desk in disarray, but she’s a business dynamo—and the success of her Seattle-based company, Light Fantastic, keeps her from dwelling on her crumbled marriage. When Olivia inherits 49 percent of Glow, Inc., her uncle’s high-tech lighting firm, she butts heads with the interloper who bagged the other 51 percent: Jasper Sloan, a venture capitalist known as an orderly man with all his ducks in a row.

Right from the start, the so-called partners nearly crash and burn—and can barely contain the sexual energy crackling between them. But when they discover a blackmailer uncovering secrets inside Glow, Olivia and Jasper’s steamy joint venture faces the acid test of truth…and a need for absolute trust. For when extortion turns to murder, a union of their minds—and hearts—might be their only chance to stay alive.

“Equal parts romance and suspense” (Publishers Weekly), Flash is yet another exhilarating and steamy thriller from the “queen of the genre” (Kirkus Reviews).

How did I do it?

I usually consider abridged books a mortal sin! So how did I download this one? I was desperate. I really wanted a Krentz-fix and this was one of my favorites, and I didn't notice the "a" word. It was good, but in abridging, something has to be cut and the intricacy of the subplots was a gonner. Yes you get the story and the colorful characters, but if you listened to this and weren't impressed with Krentz, you're missing out on a fantastic author if you don't listen to a full length book of hers.
