About This Book
Emily Burnham has reinvented herself, stepping out from a sheltered, controlled upbringing into a life she is finally claiming as her own. Nixon Caldwell, a Marine veteran haunted by two tours in Afghanistan, has retreated into deliberate solitude as a shield against the guilt he carries. When circumstance throws these two together, the attraction is immediate and complicated. Nix wants Emily close but keeps his emotional walls firmly in place, and the tension between desire and self-protection drives the story forward with the slow burn that defines Sawyer Bennett's early romance work.
Charlotte North and Matthew Holland bring genuine chemistry to the dual-narrated performance, each voicing their respective lead with enough emotional texture to make the internal conflicts feel earned rather than melodramatic. North captures Emily's hard-won confidence with warmth, while Holland gives Nix a guarded restraint that makes his rare vulnerable moments land with real weight. At under eight hours, the pacing stays tight, and the interplay between the two narrators makes this one of the stronger entries in the series for audio specifically.
