Wall St. Jerk

The Curves of Wall St., Book 1

De: Megan Wade

Narrado por: Wayne Mitchell, Stephanie Wyles

The first time I met Ronan Kennedy face-to-face, it was while he was screaming down a fresh-faced analyst for being less than perfect at his job. And what's worse, he then tried to fire me for being in the way when said analyst turned away and fled—smashing my lucky cactus and ruining my knitting in the process, mind you.

Needless to say, I wasn't impressed. But I also wasn't ready for the unemployment queue. So, digging deep, I made sure Ronan had zero excuse to let me go, working myself to the bone—while squeezing in a little time for knitting every day—to make sure his previously chaotic team was now running like clockwork. I deserve a raise, but the annoyingly gorgeous boss-from-hell barely even uttered a thanks. Jerk.

That is, until I'm almost poached from his team and he's forced to face the hard truth—treat me as an equal or lose me forever.

To his credit, that's exactly what happens. And that's when things get really interesting . . .

Contains mature themes.

Good story, not good narration

The story was really cute and I liked it a lot, but the voice the male narrator used for the female main character was incredibly annoying, and it almost sounded like it was that way on purpose. If this story had duet narration the rating would have been 4 stars

Sexy secretary trope

I like this story of the dowdy secretary in the knitwear taming the millionaire VC guy—especially since I’m a knitter. No angst, light steam short romp with no surprises—like a sorbet. The voice talents were not ideal. The female narrator injects unnatural pauses and the male narrator’s voices for anyone other than the MC are cringey.

Writing=👍. Narration=👎.

Agree with all the comments. Book was decent but the strange secondary voices made things creepy. It would be worth the time if it didn’t cost money. But both money and time…you choose.

Fun story

The story is good but as others have mentioned the narration was a struggle. I tried to listen on regular speed but it was not good, bumped it to 1.5 and it was better but still not great. If you can get past it you will enjoy the story!

Hilarious

Definitely more funny than smutty. The way he was doing the female characters voices was very entertaining but annoying all the same.

Narrator almost ruined story

The story was good enough I wanted to know what happened but the male narrator almost made me turn it off a number of times. His regular voice is pleasant but when he tries to do other characters it is truly awful. He made the male best friend sound like he’s 90 years old, and when he tried to do the female voice, it sounded like my 9 year old brother imitating me when he was tattle telling to my mom. The story was a decent storyline, but the characters are barely flushed out. ^?

the narrator's cadence was so off putting

this was not a strong or very interesting story, but what sunk it like a lead anvil. it was a real struggle throughout the story because of the narration. read at your own risk 😒

Ugh, just no

The storyline is excellent. However, the writing and dialogue are super immature and cringe-worthy. The male narrator does a good job except for the MC’s best (same age) friend sounds like an 80 year old! The female narrator isn’t fluid - her reading is very choppy and she takes breathing breaks (consistently) in awkward places. It’s distracting.

Overall, I don’t recommend this one. I skipped over quite a lot so I could leave a review. Just no.

Meh

The storyline was engaging enough but the narrators were tough to listen to. I wish that they were not so over the top

Fun story

The guy doing the voices of the women was horrible!
He made them sound stupid and made the other men sound old.
