I listened to this book and the voices are fantastic.
The story is boy meets girl, girl spends a one night stand with boy, they meet again by chance and the speaks continue to fly. What makes this different is her job is a secret one, one that can affect his job.
We see the story develop into a it has to be you tale and the journey there is delightful.
You will like this book if you like your FMCs to be independent working women, feisty and unafraid of asking what they want from a guy.

I was so ready for a new series by one of my favorite authors, and Marni didn’t disappoint. Sadie and Holt were a very spicy one night stand that turned into a forbidden romance and I loved it. I loved Holt’s dynamic in the story and how he tried his best to stay true to hisself while also explore his relationship. I couldn’t connect to Sadie the many secrets she hid I didn’t enjoy, I know it was what she had to do, but it rubbed me the wrong way. I wish there was so much hidden secrets in the relationship, but once it came out it showed how strong they worked on their relationship. I’m excited to see the other couples in the series ❤️

Marni does it again! She can write the best, one night stand playboy that will never settle. I’m already obsessed with this new series! My favorite part? How Hart falls hard and fast for Sadie! Make sure you pick this new book and read this series! Best billionaire, romance with LA influencer. I enjoyed their chemistry very much, it was enthralling and I wasn’t able to put it down, it kept me up on each single chapter! Buckle up for an amazing ride, because this arrogant man, is just exactly what Sadie needed! This book had my cheeks red

This is the first book in the new Weston group series. Our MMC is Hart, he is the oldest sibling, he’s cocky, and arrogant (hence the title). He loves women and he is always looking for a good time. He doesn’t want to settle down. Now Sadie our MFC is looking for the one. When she meets Hart it is magical, the banter is to die for. I love when mature, grown men and women get together. So these two have a wonderful night together and suddenly, Hart is hooked. He wants more. He wants to get to know her and be with her. But, Sadie has a secret. Will Hart be able to handle her secret or will this cause this beginning relationship to end. This book has loads of steam, great characters with complex thoughts and feelings. This was an excellent start to this new series, I cannot wait to read the other books.
Nobody talks like that but I guess we’re not here for the plot

Complicated
Without a doubt Marni Mann is the Queen of hot and spicy Billionaires. They are men that know what they want and go after it, unapologetically. And The Arrogant One, the first book in an all new series, is no different.
Hart Weston is one of 5 siblings that is part of The Weston Group. They own some of the best, most successful restaurants and clubs in LA and now in the Spade Hotels all over. Hart is known as the arrogant one. He is king of one night stands, because honestly, he doesn't want more than that. He knows what he has to offer and he knows he can satisfy a woman.
Sadie Spencer is successful in her own right. She works in social media and lives a very busy life. She loves food and has a gig where she needs to remain anonymous. She's not looking for the 'happy for now'. She's looking for 'happily ever after'. She's looking for love and she won't settle for less.
All I'll say is HOT DAMN, did Marni bring it!! I knew this book was going to be HOT, but I guess I didn't know HOW hot. Because my kindle could've gone up in flames within moments of Sadie and Hart meeting. The chemistry was electric! And even though everything was very insta, I loved the way Mann started the inferno, pulled it back in a little, and then started us on a very high heat forbidden romance between two people that were originally looking for two very different things, but soon realized they could find what they wanted in one another, if they could come clean and merge their worlds.
"Do you want a drink?"
"Are you going to have one?"
"Sadie, the only thing I'm drinking tonight is you"
One of my favorite things about a 'one night stand trope' is when it immediately turns to more because the MMC falls fast and hard, even if he was the one that never wanted more.
From the start, Hart made it be known who he was, but Sadie decided to play with fire because if she was going to do it, why not with someone as confident as Hart? He definitely seemed like he could back it up. Plus, their chemistry and banter back and forth complimented each other so well. I couldn't NOT see them together after that first night. But with secrets between them, it was going to be interesting to see it all unfold.
Along with all the sizzling chemistry, the food aspect of this story was a major draw for me. Being a lover a food myself, I loved all the foodie aspects between these two and their backgrounds. I appreciated the way it brought them together, but also was curious how one part was going to be handled when it came down to it.
Overall, this was one hot read with some amazing characters that we were introduced to. I can't wait to read about all the Westons in their respective books (and perhaps get a recipe or two thrown in for me to try).
