Managed

Written by Kristen Callihan

Narrated by Rupert Channing and Charlotte North

It started off as a battle of wits. Me: the ordinary girl with a big mouth against him: the sexy bastard with a big . . . ego.

I thought I'd hit the jackpot when I was upgraded to first class on my flight to London.

That is, until he sat next to me. Gabriel Scott: handsome as sin, cold as ice. Nothing and no one gets to him. Ever. He's a legend in his own right, the manager of the biggest rock band in the world, and an arrogant ass who looks down his nose at me.

I thought I'd give him hell for one, long flight. I didn't expect to like him. I didn't expect to want him. But the biggest surprise? He wants me too. Only in a way I didn't see coming.

If I accept his proposal, I leave myself open to falling for the one man I can't manage. But I'm tempted to say yes. Because the real man beneath those perfect suits and that cool façade just might be the best thing that's ever happened to me. And I just might be the only one who can melt the ice around his heart.

Let the battle begin . . .

Contains mature themes.

Enjoying the story. But can hear the male narrator swallowing or closing his mouth, not sure what exactly but its annoying AF.

[Corinne · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Great audio for a good rockstar romance. The narrators were spot on. They did an array of accents and interpreted the text and playfulness of the characters very well.
This is a grumpy hero meets sunshine heroine. It was filled with laugh out loud moments that I loved. The ending drama brought it down for me. I didn't like the misscommunication aspect at all.

[Gina Drapela Marino · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

So freaking beautiful. Best narration I’ve heard in a romance novel yet. The actors brought these grounded, relatable, and irresistible characters to life.

[A Jones · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I really liked the female narrator but the male had a weird cadence.

[Anne S. · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Great story, beautiful narration. I enjoyed listening to it. Sophie and Gabriel's interactions were *chef's kiss* right from the beginning; their first meeting had me laughing. I liked their story a lot, and it made me care more about the other guys in the band as well.

[Kagura · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Scottie the grumpy and Sophie the bubbly. I liked how Sophie used to call Gabriel a sunshine, a total opposite of his personality.

[Nichole Hart · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Another winner. Loved this hero so much. And Sophie darling really added a lightness.
