Loved this story! It’s a slow burn romance, enemies to lovers, age gap with a protective “touch her and die” MMC. The MMC had a rough childhood that leads to a heart of ice which get melted away by the daughter of his business partner. A girl he should not learn to love but does after a forced marriage.

I just couldn’t keep reading, it was so cheesy and so many plot holes. I also made the mistake of getting the Audible version which made it even worse. Yasmin is literally a spoiled brat and they portray her as a “valley girl” and the added crap about the photography was ridiculous. The character had no depth and I just couldn’t stand her anymore. I read about half way through the book hoping something good was going to happen to want me to keep reading but it was just way too slow.

The last of the Never After series available on the Audible Plus catalogue until the end of this week, and it's definitely a case of saving the best until last. 

The narrators of this were spot on for the characters, and they were both engaging and easy to listen to. They suited the characters they were playing, and neither made any major changes when giving voices to other characters - it's certainly less 'acted' than the others in the series, and as a result works so much better. The male performance has also vastly increased my liking of Julian as a character - he may now be my favourite leading man of the series!

They also brought the story to life very well. I was able to more readily engage with the storyline and get more out out of it than I was from my initial read (although I admit that might be down to the fact I had read all of the books in very quick succession, whereas the audios force you to slow your pace). I am pretty confident that this audio will allow me to enjoy the physical book more the next time I pick it up, which I don't necessarily think is the case with the others in the series. 

I also like the fact that this one has the extended epilogue included - the rest don't (but fortunately I have the ebook versions of them).

Out of all four books I've listened to from the series, this is the audio I'd buy without hesitation. Definitely deserves an increased rating from the first read!
