The Will

By: Kristen Ashley

Narrated by: Hollis McCarthy

Early in her life, Josephine Malone learned the hard way that there was only one person she could love and trust: her grandmother, Lydia Malone. Out of necessity, unconsciously and very successfully, Josephine donned a disguise to keep all others at bay. She led a globetrotting lifestyle on the fringes of the fashion and music elite, but she kept herself distant. While Josephine was trotting the globe, retired boxer Jake Spear was living in the same small town as Lydia. There was nothing disguised about Jake. Including the fact he made a habit of making very bad decisions about who to give his love. But for Josephine and Jake, there was one person who adored them. One person who knew how to lead them to happiness. And one person who was intent on doing it. Even if she had to do it as her final wish on this earth.

Happy I Used A Credit

1. Some people complained about Josie speech. If you like the Harlequin old english type books kind of speech then this will not irritate you. She is very proper and speaks old english so yes there are some "thus" and "indeed", but not enough to irritate. 2. The narrator to me was fine. I could tell the difference between the characters and no ones voice was just too bad. 3. The story itself was pretty good, not too predictable, not too smutty but gives you just enough. 4. There were some bad guys but not any real violence. 5. The alpha male wasn't too overbearing which is good to me because I can only take so much of that. 6. The main female character while she has her submissive old fashion ways she is still strong and frequently speaks up which I appreciated. It seemed more real that way where some of these book makes the woman so week that well you start wishing it to be over...quickly.
This book is 23 hours long and I will admit that I finished it in 2 days which means that I lost a lot of sleep. But it was well worth the credit. If you liked "Breathe" by Ashley then this book may be what you are looking for.

Lovely, romantic story but........

This is such a creative and romantic story but definitely did not need the very explicit sexual details. That sullied what could have been a favorite book of mine

Loved the story!

The story kept me very interested, but the bad language was definitely a turnoff for me. It is such a shame that such a good story has to have a cuss word in every minute.

Slower than other KA books

I am a huge KA fan but this book took me longer to get into. I am not sure if it was all of the details, but it seemed to drag. I still consider it credit worthy, everything by KA is creditworthy. This was just not my favorite.

Love the narrator

The narrator captured the voice of all characters. The voice fit the main character well. The story was strong and some hot romance but not overly sexed up. I really enjoyed it.
