The Six Night Truce

West Oaks Heroes, Book 1

De: Hannah Shield

Narrado por: Aubrey Vincent, Alexander Cendese

He's cocky, infuriating—and irresistible.

I can't decide if I want to kiss him or kill him.

When I stepped into the courtroom this morning, I intended to fight for my client's life. I never expected to run for my own. Now the courthouse is in lockdown, and I'm trapped in a tiny room with my nemesis—the West Oaks PD cop who hates me most.

He's a single dad with a growly attitude, an ex-Marine, and he's the star witness against my client. But it turns out Detective Sean Holt and I do have something in common. This threat against us is personal, and the maniac behind it wants us both dead.

We have one week to catch whoever's trying to kill us, assuming we don't off each other first. But as we hunt down leads, I start to suspect I don't hate Sean Holt after all. I might even like him.

And all this hostility is really turning me on…

Get ready for scorching steam and plenty of swoon! Janie and Sean go from enemies to lovers in this heart-pounding, action-packed romance.

Great story

Great story, the first I’ve read from this author. I was not able to predict the ending and that made me happy. Unfortunately I won’t be listening to any more from this series because I can’t get into it with the male narrator. He sounded more like a game show host than a broody detective. I’m sure he would be great for romcoms but serious roles like this definitely called for a different narrator. Female narrator was great and carried me through to the end.

Grumpiest Grump whoever Grumped! lmao!

Omg I truly enjoyed this fast-paced, action packed, mystery/suspense, survival romance - with a dash of comedy, enemies-to-lovers gem (whew! almost ran outta breath). Hannah Shield is a new author for me, I liked "The Six Night Truce" so much I would happily look out for more of her work. There were some seriously spicy scenes - especially with Alexander Cendese. Over time his voice has grown on me to where I count him in my top 20 favorite male performers. His voice is unique and you would think he could only do comedy work and wouldn't be able to sell a sex scene well but he does! Aubrey Vincent is new to me and I enjoyed her performance as well.

4 starz - I would listen again

Just how sincere it felt. We can really judge people wrong, all the way around.

The suspence just kept you going. It was so good to see how the relationship was able to connect.

Great story line. Too much "ADULT" content for me

Story was riveting, well written and suspenseful. Unfortunately I find the adult content a bit too much for my taste.

That said, this is the first book I have listened to by this author so I don't know if adult content is the norm. I love suspense and mystery books and this book definitely checked off those 2 boxes on my list.

The audio book production was excellent. Think it's the first audio book I have listened that used 2 distinct readers to do the male and female voices. I really liked it and it was very well done.

Overall I'm impressed with the quality of the writing and audio book production.

Struggling to finish listening

I’m on chapter 11, really enjoying the book, however, the male narration is making it hard to continue. It’s SO over the top, so fast and overly enthusiastic about everything. There’s also a twangy quality to the voice. He definitely distracts from a great story!

Very entertaining story and performance!

I read/listen to a lot of books, and I really love this book! I love the way it is written, the characters, all the suspense and action, and the romance. It really is entertaining from start to finish! The performance is very good.

MMC is engaging character

I tried listening to this earlier and could not get into it. Tried again and did enjoy it. While the “spice” is there, in comparison to darker books, it’s closer to PG. very likable characters and ok plot.

Just not enough story

The plot was devised to slot in sex scenes. I’m deleting this from my library as there just isn’t enough story to read again.
