The Duplicity Duet

Emily "AKA Brandi" a prostitute raising her special need's son Daniel meets the love of her life and her worst nightmare rolled into one.
With dreams far bigger than what she's doing, a mysterious dominant gentleman comes into her life.
The chemistry between these two is hot!!
What I didn't expect was the friendship that formed and the way Marco starts to care about Daniel.
That's when Brandi's ❤ gets turned upside down.
Things are going great until Marco's haunting past throws Brandi in the crossfire.
This story is filled with drama, hurt, danger, anger and of course love.
This romance is very unconventional.
Half way through I thought, there's no way this can have a HEA ending...
Thankfully I was wrong 😊
Trusts will be broken, lies will be told, murder plots made, all while not everyone is who they appear to be.
The sex scenes vary as well.
What happens between Marco and Brandi
had sparks flying.
But some of the tricks were fairly disgusting.
But in the seedy world of the sex industry undesirable acts are a part of the job.
The narration was phenomenal considering the amount of emotional depth these characters go through.
This was not only worth the credit but, completely unpredictable.

Ok so Brandi (aka Emily) isn't your usual heroine.. but, in my eyes, she was everything a heroine should be and much more.. because yes, now she was a high-end Vegas Escort but she'd gotten pregnant and kicked out at sixteen so waitressed to keep her baby son. A son, who over the years, grew into a much cherished special needs nine yr old and Emily, the strong and loving Mother that she was, had done what was necessary.. pulled her big girl panties up and, at night, wore lace ones instead as Brandi the much sought after Prostitute. And it's at one such 'engagement' that she meets the handsome, uber sexy, charming yet mysterious and irresistible Italian businessmen Marco Valenti who wined and dined Brandi, took her out, treated her like something precious and, for the first time, made her come alive in bed.

Marco became Brandi's exclusive client, knew her real name and they lowered defences and slowly fell in love.. although the mutual chemistry, attraction and desire had been instant. But the charming gentleman/broody alpha Marco had secrets and, because of him, one of those secrets was threatening Emily's life - so, being the loving caring man he was, Marco didn't hesitate to protect both her and her son.. and a tentative family unit was starting to form. However Marco's enemies were very determined, very sneaky and very shady and managed to....... well sorry you'll have to listen to find out - but I will say after the word "no" was reluctantly uttered everything from then on went to Hell.. and the fall out was dramatic and changed everything.

And I'm so glad that I didn't have to wait for book 2 at this point because the cliffhanger was brutal.. and wow book two was everything book one was not.. I'm not going to give anything away but trust me it was dramatic, heavy, heartbreaking, chilling, tense, angst-ridden and so so much more. Marco and Emily finally get a wonderful happy ending.. but their journey was the Space Mountain of rollercoasters.. a ride I wasn't about to get off, a ride I thoroughly enjoyed, a ride that had it's fair share of hot sex, a ride that shook me to my core with the suspense and revenge, a ride that brought strong multi-layered characters and honed them into hardened weapons, a ride that I stopped/started to savor the journey.. and a ride that I'll never forget.

Worth a credit? Oh yeah and then some! This riveting story started out being told from Emily/Brandi's POV but in book 2 it switches to dual POV and the talented narrators brought a well written, well paced intense book to life with the varied accents, the drama, the danger, the heat, the hurt, the turmoil, the twists and the passion all expertly captured making listening to this bountiful brutal beautiful story a very intoxicating and rewarding experience.
