Taking a Risk

A "Kind Of" Billionaire, Book 1

By: Lexy Timms

Narrated by: David Bryan

Divorced, childless, and jobless at 30. My younger self had it all planned. I would be married by 22—check. Have the dream job after university—check. And a couple of kids to go with the perfect wife. Scratch that. My wife left me for a guy 10 years younger than me, and they're having the babies we should have had. The dream job became a dream when the company I worked for went belly up because of bad investments. So here I am, moving across the state with just my dog to the big city.

I am single, jobless, and have about enough money after the divorce to pay off my truck and hopefully rent an apartment. Then, I get offered an easy job managing some billionaire's estate while he's off to Antarctica for three months on some expedition. So here I sit, counting his money, pretending to be him. Well, more like a glorified house sitter whose German shepherd actually landed me the job because he looks like a guard dog. (Which couldn't be further from the truth.)

What I didn't expect (nor, I assume, did he) was that his daughter would show up. One that apparently can't stand her father. He said to treat everything as if it were mine. I might be taking this job a little too literally.

Poignant, beautiful story!! Well narrated!!

Taking a Risk, an Audiobook by Lexy Timms is the engaging story of William and Sophie. They’re from two completely different worlds, and somehow, find a way to move beyond their worlds to become friends and something more. She’s a bored, wealthy socialite. He’s a finance man looking for a new start, along with his dog. Ends in a cliffhanger (as always)

This Audiobook was excellently performed by David Bryan….no easy feat when he is the sole performer! But, his narration was incredible…he made it easy to distinguish between characters…and he made the story a joy to listen to!!

I am volunteering to leave a review for an Advance Reader Copy of this Audiobook.

Loved it

Great narration, great story. I love listening to audio books at work makes the day go faster. This story held my interest from the start.
I was given an audio and I voluntarily leave this review.
