Jacob Esera, star rugby player and young single father, has worked hard to create a joyous life for his six-year-old daughter. After the death of his childhood sweetheart soon after their daughter's birth, all Jake wants is safety and stability. No risks. No wild chances. And especially no Juliet Nelisi, former classmate, scandal magnet, and a woman who is a thorn in his side.
As a lonely teenager, Juliet embraced her bad-girl reputation as a shield against rejection. Years later, having kicked a cheating sports-star ex to the curb, she has a prestigious job and loyal friends—and wants nothing to do with sportsmen. The last thing she expects is the fire that ignites between her and the stuffed-shirt golden boy who once loved her best friend.
Straitlaced Jacob Esera versus wild-at-heart Juliet Nelisi? Place your bets.
Contains mature themes.

Listeners will fall in love with rugby star and father Jacob Esera, and narrator Justine Keef helps them take the fall. At his brother's wedding, Jacob encounters a former troublemaker from high school, Juliet Nelisi. Keef masterfully handles this audiobook's New Zealand accents, making listeners feel like they're there. Juliet's best friend was Jacob's girlfriend, who tragically died after giving birth to a daughter six years ago. Keef succeeds in giving a young voice to Jacob's daughter without making her sound like a baby. Juliet's ex-husband tries to cause trouble for her, and his sleazy tone has the listener empathizing with Juliet. Listeners will rejoice when Juliet finally gets the happiness she deserves.
