Publisher's summary

Nominated for the Romance Writers of America 2016 Rita Award for best romantic suspense novel.

Francesca Rossi might be the youngest in a long line of badass siblings, but this computer whiz would rather hack a database than pack a pistol for the family business in Barefoot Bay. When an assignment forces her out of her comfort zone and into the field, Chessie decides to amp up the excitement quotient and has her first one night stand with a smokin' hot stranger she'll never see again.

Former CIA agent Malcolm Harris is fresh out of prison for a crime he didn't commit and knows the government is watching his every move, waiting for him to slip up. But the only mistake he makes is to assume the sexy, sassy woman he seduces on the way to Barefoot Bay is a spy. He learns too late that the beauty he's bedded is really his best friend's sister...and his undercover partner on a risky mission.

Chessie and Mal have to stay one step ahead of the CIA, navigate their way through a perilous country, and fight the insane chemistry that sizzles between them. It doesn't take long for this hacker and spy to discover the power of their unplanned partnership...and learn that falling in love might be the riskiest business of all.

The Barefoot Bay Series is really several mini-series all set on one gorgeous island. Every single book in the series can be picked up and enjoyed whether you've experienced none, some, or all of the others. The complete series consists of the four original books that launched the series, followed by a trilogy of Billionaires, a trilogy of Brides, and a prequel plus trilogy of Undercover stories. This way, listeners can either enjoy a long series, or just sink into one of the trilogies for a shorter time commitment. There are a few boxed sets and free "first in trilogy" options so it won't cost too much to spend many days (and nights!) in Barefoot Bay. And there will be more next year!

Another great Roxanne St Clair hit!

Where does Barefoot With a Stranger rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is right up there with my list of favorites!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Barefoot With a Stranger?

One of many was when Francesca was crying over the graves. This was such an emotional scene and she knew she was going to cause her brother extreme pain.

Which scene was your favorite?

The scene in the hotel where Mal and Francesca were "fake" having sex for the benefit of the listening device. It was so funny what they were doing and what they were thinking about what they were doing. I laughed so hard!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Absolutely! I couldn't because life gets in the way of my listening but I came as close as I could to "reading" it very quickly.

Any additional comments?

This is a great series by this author!

Outstanding

It could only happen to Chessie Rossi! When her flight is cancelled she finds herself in the company of one very hot stranger. She's always lived by the rules but just this once she decides to have a night of pure fun. The next day she makes it to her brother Gabe's house only to discover that her one night man is actually one of her brothers best friends!! Making matters worse is the fact that she will need to spend an extended period of time with him in Cuba to help her brother find the child he just found out about. If they can survive this trip without getting caught or killing each other it will be a miracle! Or maybe the best thing that ever happened to either of them.

This story has it all! Romance, suspense, and adventure are all entwined into the story. It is a roller coaster of emotions as little bits of information are discovered throughout the story. The story and narration are very well done and I highly recommend it to everyone who loves romantic suspense.

Unique Heroine...

Where does Barefoot With a Stranger rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I love a story that dares to be different and Francesca is a breath of fresh air. Her brain is her strongest asset but her her heart is a close second.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Barefoot With a Stranger?

For me there was never a set moment that I found memorable. I have always loved the feelings and interactions between Malcolm and Francesca. He sees her spirit, heart and smarts as a ray of beauty and even in her most insecure moments his attraction to her never fades.

Which character – as performed by Kaleo Griffith – was your favorite?

The greatest complement, I could give Kaleo Griffith, is that he opened my eyes to all the possibilities with his narrative of Francesca and Malcolm's story. He made me fall in love with the story. Helped me to see behind Malcolm's tough exterior and get to know more about Francesca's hard fought for independence. That voice, those emotions, got me to connect to these characters.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

An adventure born out of love.
