Three young women make a pact in high school—
to always be friends and to one day make it big in Manhattan

Built to Last

Harper Ross has always dreamed of working on one of the magnificent brownstones of Park Avenue. Now one of her closest friends has bought the house of her dreams and hired Harper to do the construction work. She wants to showcase the renovation on a television show for her brand-new production company. It’s the same grand home she and her friends promised themselves they would be able to afford one day. Working on it isn’t the same as living in it, but it’s all a part of Harper’s grand plan to grow her father’s construction business into one of the biggest in the city. The only obstacle—the designer on the project.

Reid Dorsey believes in the balance between beauty and functionality. As one of Manhattan’s new voices in design, he’s excited to get to work on a true Gilded Age property. If only the owner had selected a contractor he enjoyed working with. Oh, Harper was brilliant and her work was excellent, but she has an opinion on everything—and it’s usually the opposite of his.

Over the course of the job, these enemies start to see different sides of each other, and suddenly their fights don’t seem so bad. But when the project is threatened, they might have to choose between their jobs and the beautifully designed future they could share.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Narrator Kitty Bang breathes life into the romance between contractor Harper Ross and designer Reid Dorsey.… At first, they butt heads, and Bang demonstrates liveliness in their dialogue as they trade barbs. Harper's mother harasses her about the family business, and Bang gives her a nasal quality that suits. Harper's past makes it difficult for her to get close to a man. She presents herself as brash and in charge, but there's a vulnerability to her that Bang successfully conveys. As sparks fly between Harper and Reid, Bang's performance heats up.” —AudioFile Magazine

Fantastic listen

I love all of the audible books by Lexi Blake and this one is no exception. It was a wonderful part of the trilogy and a fantastic ending to the series. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next. Back to my third listen through of her masters and mercenaries series (all 90 plus of them). 😘

Holy moly what a great read!!

I love this book so much, my first by this author and it definitely did not disappoint! The banter was on point, humor had me laughing uncontrollably, the heart felt moments really took the experience up a notch, and let’s not forget the spice!! All and all I loved this book! Definitely will be a reread! Can’t wait for more from this author!

Loved it!

This has been a cute, fun trilogy. A bit different for Lexi Blake but not lacking in that awesome thread of humor she's able to weave throughout her stories. God I love Lexi Blake!

Narration was good. I suggest bumping to 1.6 or 1.7 or it's a bit stilted.
