By: Sky Corgan

From USA Today best-selling author Sky Corgan comes a new adult contemporary romance.

Caleb Ryan was the only man I ever loved. The only guy who even acknowledged my existence when we were going to high school together. But then he betrayed me....

I spent years trying to get over what he'd done to me, honing my hatred until it was knife sharp. Now I finally have a chance to exact revenge. He won't even see it coming. I plan to get rid of him no matter what it takes.

The only problem is I need him to achieve another goal. Whether I like it or not, we're going to have to work together. But I still plan to make him pay.

This is book one of the Revenge Games Duet. This is a sweet romantic comedy between a quirky girl, a ripped personal trainer, and a sexy billionaire. There is no cheating, and a happy-for-now ending is guaranteed.

Fun Story!

Fun storyline. However, the quick turnaround Peter made was a little unbelievable. I really like Caleb. The narration was great! I was a little hesitant about having a male narrator the entire story, but I was proven wrong. The narration was actually done well. I will need to read the next book to see what happens next because I do question the new relationship formed at the end of the book!

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

mixed feelings

I really wanted to like Willow but she just irritated me. She is petty, shallow and self-centred, I couldn't believe she gave Caleb those cookies knowing full well they could kill him, along with all the other stuff she does. Then Caleb goes along with her machinations, the why is not revealed and at the end Peter's about-face is quite unexpected. I feel sorry for Caleb, it almost felt like he was falling in love with Willow.
Not sure what is the message in this story.
The cover is not reflective of the story AT ALL.

My first listen from Mr. Hoyt and I enjoyed listening to his various voices which he switched easily. He modulates his voice to fit the mood and each character. Will be looking for more of his audios.

Not what I was expecting

This isn't the kind of book I expect from Sky Corgan, it's possible that book 2 resolves what I didn't like about this book but I'm unlikely to read book 2.

I really didn't like Willow, the blurb described her as quirky but I thought of her as a bit deranged. Her emotions are all over the shop and so do her moods, there doesn't seem to be any middle ground with her. Her logic is also massively lacking, she can't tell that someone isn't interested in her 'perpetual optimism' comes across as delusional. Her reasons behind choosing Peter as her love interest is cold and show her as a shallow person and her decision to change herself into what he wants is short sighted and stupid.

I like Caleb, he comes across as a genuinely nice person who's just trying to help Willow out to make up for unintentionally hurting her feelings years ago. Although why he continues putting up with her escapes me, she's either mean or using him.

Peter just comes across as an oblivious arse, I do not see what Willow see's in him and the way he treats people is pretty awful.

The writing is the only redeeming part of the story, it is well written I just really didn't like the characters or plot.

The narrator did a good job, the character voices are well done and the delivery is well paced.

Good Listen

Willow sees the man she wants and is determined to get him by using the person who hurt her in high school to make it happen. This book is funny and sometimes you just want to smack Willow because she is clueless. I love the narrator, he made it seem real. I received this audio book free for an honest review.
