Story
The last person on earth I want to be stranded with is Gianni Lupo. But, thanks to the blizzard of the century, I’m trapped in a roadside motel room with that cocky bastard for two straight days, and with one small bed. Some women might thank Mother Nature for delivering a polar vortex that maroons them with six feet of solid muscle, those deep blue eyes, that sexy grin - but not me. I’ve known Gianni Lupo all my life, and he’s never brought me anything but bad luck, and trouble. I should have known what the disastrous end result would be.

Story
He’s back. Jameson Maine. The boy I used to love. The man I love to hate. Hate like it’s a hobby. Like it’s my job. Ironic, since love is my profession. But with the passage of time, I’ve finally healed. Repaired the broken parts his betrayal shattered inside me, and silenced the haunting memories of what he took from me. What he made me give up.

Story
He's a billionaire heir. A grump supreme. Hater of people. Bigger hater of peopling with people. And my new fake boyfriend. "Emotionally unavailable" doesn’t even begin to describe Hayes Rutherford. He has more defenses than a nuclear missile silo. And he’s the ultimate catch of the century. At least, according to his bank statement. My job’s simple: Keep all interested ladies away from the walled-off heir, by pretending to be his one true love. But you know what they say about fake-dating a billionaire: It’s all fun and games, until the scandals start.

Jud Lawson found me stranded in the rain. Broken down on the side of the road in a deserted neighborhood with my piece-of-crap car. I wasn’t looking for a hero, and definitely not one who looks like him. An obscenely hot mountain of a man who screams danger. But I have little choice other than climbing onto the back of his bike.

Story
Being a veteran quarterback means I’m a mentally alert, fine-tuned athletic machine who can make split-second decisions. It’s my job to anticipate what’s going to happen next. But I couldn’t have anticipated the death of our beloved team owner, or his estranged daughter, Hannah Strong, inheriting the Boston Tomcats. She’s stubborn, uptight, infuriating, and wrong about absolutely everything. I can’t stop arguing with her. Or thinking about her. And I don’t want to talk about how good she looks in a skirt. Or how good she’d look out of it. Really, I don’t.

I started flirting with a guy while waiting for my car to be serviced. Now granted, he wasn’t just any guy. Tall. Dark. Hot. Mysterious. Can you blame me for wanting to talk to him? He’s in town visiting his parents. So am I. He goes to the same college as I do. Such a coincidence. Almost as if our meeting is destined. But I shouldn’t believe in that sort of thing. I am single as a Pringle and always ready to mingle. Until I keep running into Mr. Tall, Dark, and Mysterious everywhere I go.

Have you ever had one of those really bad days at work? You know, one where your sexy AF boss catches you photocopying your backside in his office? No? Just me, then? I blame my bestie and partner-in-chaos. She challenged me with a not-so-innocent dare that I should’ve flat out declined. But I’m an adrenaline junkie, and now, here I am. I know it sounds crazy, and daredevil tendencies aside, I definitely went too far to get his attention. But you haven’t seen him. Colton Wolfe. My boss. Tall, dark, handsome, and with the sexiest British accent I’ve ever heard.

I am wildly successful in my career. Everyone knows Graham Frazier, soccer club owner, is a winner. In my love life? Decidedly less so. But just because I'm divorced doesn't mean I can't throw my best friend the wedding party of the year. Even if marriage is a mistake. I hadn't expected the long hours with Lori to make me wonder. Wedding planning is Lori Connor's favorite thing, a vicarious escape from her life as a single mom. I doubt she's ever had a client fluster her like I seem to.

I always pictured my brother's best friend to be impressive - after all, he's a military helicopter pilot whose job is to save people. Then he appears in front of me and my assumptions fly out of the window. Tattoos on muscles. Grey eyes and a sexy smirk. A Scottish accent to die for. And what's more? He's here to rescue me from my uncle's clutches. My poor sheltered heart stands no chance.

Publisher's Summary
The past is hot on her heels....
On the run and out of options, a desperate Ali Ross knows two things for sure: Her ugly past will eventually catch up to her. And when it does, she'll need a strong and loyal man to help her face the danger head on or risk losing everything.
The girl is hard on his heart....
Looking for love and having no luck, former Army Ranger Sam Gleeson knows two things for sure: His beautiful new neighbor is under his skin. And no matter what secrets she's keeping, her seductive sweetness is wreaking havoc on his hardened heart.
Hiding from a violent ex-husband, Ali knows the law can't help her. She also knows someone like Sam can. Fearing her freedom, she hatches a shamelessly impulsive plan that's as old as time. She's willing to do anything to ensure her safety, and that includes doing the sexy soldier next door. But when their searing chemistry unexpectedly bonds them together, Ali's hidden agenda seals an unimaginable fate.

CREDITWORTHY..... BUT ONLY JUST
I had a hard time with this listen.... purely because fear-filled Ali sets out to deliberately and ruthlessly ensnare her handsome neighbor Sam who is totally unaware, unsuspecting and is happy to have found Ali.... clueless that he is being used, lied to and played. Because Ali has investigated him thoroughly and he's just what she's looking for.... a hunky fearless protector who isn't afraid of a bit of violence. There is also instant chemistry which I thought was weak and I just didn't feel it, same night sex followed by more sex (no problems there) but a too quick to develop love as they really knew nothing about each other.
I loved Sam, an ex Army Sniper he is now the sexy owner of Scorpio a Security Company whose members are Bodyguards and everything to do with personal security and they have some fun banter and there's a real sense of a tight bond between them all. And Sam is blissfully unaware and thinks he's in Heaven with the way he, and his beautiful neighbor, have clicked together but he is starting to realize that the sharing of personal information is only going one way. Then, after a hot sexy night, he turns his back, takes a phone call and, when he turns back around, suddenly his world implodes and everything changes.... but more heartache and pain is yet to come when Ali's secrets, history and husband comes to light.
I realize why Ali did what she did but I just didn't like it and feel that she could've come clean with him earlier because he deserved to hear the truth.... but unfortunately that's not how the book played out because I realize there has to be the suspense and 'shock' factor. There was angst, drama, danger, suspense and bloodshed when the ex husband arrived on the scene which made this listen more exciting..... and eventually more romantic too.
Dual POV and ok narration but I didn't really like her male voices very much.
Worth a credit? I don't know whether it's because I've just come from a previous book 'high' but this, IMO, is a bit forgettable with no real depth - only just creditworthy or maybe better as a sale purchase.

This was a fun read, lots of steamy romance.
What did you love best about Next to Me?
I loved the ending. And the romance between Sam and Ali. I thought I had the ending figured out, but there were some twists that I hadn't expected and I really enjoyed that.
What did you like best about this story?
I love Sarah's voice. Between the author's descriptive language for the characters and Sarah giving voice to them, I felt I was part of the story.
Have you listened to any of Sarah Pavelec’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes, I always look for anything new Sarah has on audible. Sarah's narration for Next to Me doesn't disappoint. She reads with such emotion and as always brings the characters to life for me. Loved it!
Any additional comments?
I access my audible books in the car. When I was listening to Next to Me, I couldn't wait to go driving again, so the story could continue!
