The Bastard

De: Lisa Renee Jones

Narrado por: Jason Clarke, Erin Mallon

I'm the bastard child, son to the mistress, my father's backup heir to the Kingston empire. He sent me to Harvard. I left and became a Navy SEAL, but I'm back now, and I finished school on my own dime. I'm now the right-hand man to Grayson Bennett, the billionaire who runs the Bennett Empire. I'm now a few months from being a billionaire myself. I don't need my father's company or his love. My "brother" can have it. I will never go back there. I will never be the mistake my father made, the way he was the mistake my mother made.

And then she walks in the door, the princess I'd once wanted more than I'd wanted my father's love. She wants me to come back. She says my father needs to be saved. I don't want to save my father but I do want her. Deeply. Passionately. More than I want anything else.

But she's the Princess and I'm the Bastard. We don't fit. We don't belong together and yet she says he needs me, that she needs me. We're like sugar and spice, we don't mix, but I really crave a taste. Just one. What harm can just one taste do?

I Hate Cliffhangers.

This was a good story but everything was so prolonged. I feel like nothing really got done and then the cliffhanger. My favorite narrator was awesome of course and LRJ is clearly a talented author. If all of her books end in a Cliffhanger this series may be it for me

OMG

WOW, WOW 😲 that is all I can say about this book and narrator(s) I was kept on toes from beginning to end and the emotions were indescribable. I fell in LUST with Eric right after Harper’s mom came to visit and I cannot wait to listen to the next audio ❤️. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a great story with well developed characters /narrator(s). Hope for the characters to have their HEA👀

Bk 1 - The Bastard

Eric is the bastard child, to the Kingston empire. Retired Navy SEAL and Harvard lawyer has made his own money and mark on the world, no thanks to his poor excuse of a father. Eric's mother died as a single mom without treatment to her cancer and Eric holds his father responsible. Never receiving the love and encouragement Eric craved from his father, he walks a fine line between wanting to destroy the Kingston Empire and still looking for approval. Then a chance visit home, introduces him to Harper, his half sister by marriage, not by blood. Harper wants Eric to help save the family business but more than anything she wants him to want her.
Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon team up as fantastic verbal sparing partners with excellent timing and execution.

Great!

One of my favorite books and favorite series! I love the plot and twists throughout the book!

Great Book

Exciting and thrilling and all so entangled with so many turns. It just keeps you guessing what is going to happen!!

Good Story!

This is a good romance story. There's some drama surrounding this messed-up Kingston family. The book end in a cliff-hanger.

loved it

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

1st Book is Great

First book is the best of all 3. I loved the story line and could not wait to get to the next book.

Dirty Bastard!!!

I'm talking about the person and situation at the very end of the last chapter!! It's a cliffhanger but I like it!!! Jason Clarke makes my ears happy. Love his narration and his sexy sultry voice. I know cliffhangers irritate others but they give me something to look forward to. And thank you Lisa and Erin. I personally am enjoying this series. 👍👍
And sweet....these are a part of the romance package now.

"Ends" in a cliffhanger

You have to buy next book for closure. No I haven't bought the next book. Maybe will in the future.
