Summary

I expect my best buddy’s wedding to be a bust until the beautiful bartender asks me if I could use something stiff. Trust me, “getting something stiff” is the least of my worries. 

One touch of Jade’s silky-soft hand, and there’s a zing, just like in the movies. Somehow, I find the magic words that make her mine for the night. 

This one-night stand has second date written all over it. 

And, just like that, I have the whole world in the palm of my hand. It figures that right when I meet the girl of my dreams, karma drops the other shoe. 

A fantasy-come-true infatuation like ours can’t last. Can it? 

Don't miss this swoony friends-to-lovers romance.

A Beautifully Moving Story! Fabulous Narration🎧

This is a wonderful romance novel, the story swept me in right from the start, not only grabbing my attention and captivating my attention but tugging on my heartstrings the entire time. Claudia Burgoa is a gifted author, her characters and storylines are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with. The complexity of the characters and the world building is amazing and so is how she made these two work for their happily every after.I adored the two lead characters, Hudson Drago and Jade Vance, though I may have yelled at them a time of two. The two met at a wedding, his best friend, Brody’s wedding, oh and that best man speech, absolutely loved it, and she is the cousin of the bride, Claire. There was an instant attraction between them, and it led to a steamy and memorable night together. She had plans studying and traveling abroad and then roaming the world for the foreseeable future with no plans of settling down. Hudson is finishing his studies and building a career in tech, but he can not get Jade off of his mind and despite not exchanging numbers, he gets it anyway. They correspond with each other via texts and then calls, getting to know each other while building a friendship, both with hopes of one day being more than friends. But life and obstacles get in the way, making it a bumpy journey for them. I loved how this story was told and plotted in a way taking us through the years, starting in 2003 thru 2016, it took them that long to find their reason, well it took Hudson that long and it almost cost him everything that meant something to him. Kudos for Jade for standing up to her convictions. This is a beautifully written and beautifully told romance, there is plenty of drama, angst, lots of heartfelt emotions, some heartwarming and some heartrending ones too, as well as some hot and steamy loving. Claudia Burgoa, thank you for this amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Claudia Burgoa chose the perfect cast to bring her characters and story to life. Jason Clarke and Lidia Dornet are superbly talented narrators and versatile voice artists. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, giving each a voice that is a perfect fit to that character’s persona, sounding believable and just as I picture the character to sound. Lidia Dornet played Jade’s role with perfection, grasping her every emotion and had you feeling every single one, Jason Clarke did the same for Hudson. Both were great at performing the roles of the secondary characters as well. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their narration enhances the story to another level. Thank you for another exceptional listen!

Did they find their reason?

Everything needs a reason. And in this case, Hudson and Jade are continually looking for theirs. Meeting at Hudson's best friend's wedding, the two hit it off and have a night of fun. Jade is a wanderer. Coming from a childhood of foster homes that it took forever to finally find the one that loved her unconditionally, she is not comfortable settling down. Her photography takes her all over the world and she is happy with that. Hudson is just beginning his own company, and after his mother left him at a young age, he has no intention of ever getting married. Then what is the pull that keeps these two coming back for more? Years go by, texts and phone calls, visits and separations, there is something that ties them together. But is it enough? As one finds their reason, what will the other do? This is spectacularly written as the two bond as friends and slowly fall in love. It gives a look at their own self awareness and the revelations they get from their parents is eye opening! It's a feeling of true passion and understanding and a journey that is never easy, but so worth it. This is fabulous!

And as always, I swear Claudia Burgoa hears the voices in her head as she writes! Jason Clarke and Lidia Dornet are perfectly cast as Hudson and Jade. Each finding their niche into the minds of the characters, I was treated to an emotional journey that only these two narrators could portray. It's magic in my ears!
