With Strings Attached

Written by Kelly Jamieson

Narrated by Natasha Jane

The melting point is where it all comes together…or makes a big mess.

A San Amaro Singles Book

Corey Fenwick keeps her bitter past as hidden as the sweet centers inside the handmade chocolates she sells to a growing list of upscale customers. Experience has taught her the only person she can rely on is herself, so her best-friends-with-benefits relationship with Matt is perfect—no strings attached.

After his last girlfriend deemed him “boring”, Matt Ferber watched her ride off on the back of a Harley with a rock musician. Figuring he’s doomed to “let’s just be friends” with the women he cares about, the arrangement with Corey suits him fine too. Until his old friend Dylan Schell rolls into town to hang out while recovering from a surfing injury.

The sexy bad boy makes Corey’s mouth water, and she figures a harmless fling won’t hurt, especially when Dylan suggests she come between him and Matt—in bed.

It’s a win-win-win situation…until somehow there are strings attached. And too late they realize they’re getting all tangled up.

Warning: This book contains an independent woman, two hot guys, some trash talking, a little jealousy, a few beers, chocolate body paint and scary stuff like falling in love.

DNF
I couldn’t stand the childish voice of the narrator

[Nick Powers · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Story was decent. Struggled with the narrator. I cringed every time she used the word chocolate.

[Ginger Zenczak · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This is so much better than other three some books I've read. The relationship happens naturally and is not planned. It's done the way something like that would happen in real life. The reader is also much better than the other ones I've listened to.

She did it again with a great story and a wonderful plot I enjoyed it so much thanks

I really wanted to listen to this series but I can not get past the narrator's voice. It was annoying and there were weird pauses. I'll probably have to just read it.

[Jody Neuman · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

I couldn't finish listening as the narrators voice drove me freaking nuts!!!

[Bill Hair · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

2.25 Stars for me!

I just didn't get the extreme naivety of the h or the spineless nature of the H. Most threesome's fail because of jealousy. In this case, the H has a long-term friendship which has just gotten sexual with the h. In comes the injured best friend and he asks about the h. Instead of just saying that he is into her, dumba$$ H says, go for it... we are just friends. There us a lot of back and forth plus extreme ignorance with all 3 MCs.

Throw in the father and the completely ignorant stance of the h to let him help her since he didn't help her while she was growing up is just insane.

AUTHORS... Just because a female character accepts help from others, they are not weak. If they don't make use of resources around them, they will fail in life. Help is not weakness.

I thought the book was good but I didn't feel the narrator went well for the story.

[Caitlyn Dare · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Not a fan of the narration. She pronounced Corey as Car-y for 2/3 of the book, and there's a slight accent. Enough to drive me crazy.

[Jenna Vaughn · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Okay, decent book but I did not care for the ending. Seriously irritated that they had to decide no more threesome's like that's a bad thing. No it was hot and they liked it. Don't be stupid and judgmental.

[kim hill · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

The narrators teenage squeeky voice mixing up many accents ruined what would have been a very nice book.

[judy griffin · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Natasha Jane is a HORRIBLE narrator who sounds like an 11-yr-old.

[Reece Jacobson · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

I skipped out from part wsy through chapter 1. The squeeky, emotionless, teenage voice of the narrator was more than i could bare and ruined what may have been a decent book although i could not listen to it in order to find out.

[Linda Benziger · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This is a sweet and sexy story. I really loved all the characters. I’m glad the decision was made for the narrator to not try to change into a male voice for the male characters (this seldom works for me). But I have liked other female narrators more. This one mispronounced a number of words. Other than that, a great listen.
