The Invitation

Length: 8 hrs and 59 mins

Publisher's summary

A new, sexy stand-alone from number one New York Times best seller Vi Keeland.

The first time I met Hudson Rothschild was at a wedding. I’d received an unexpected invitation to one of the swankiest venues in the city.

Hudson was a groomsman and quite possibly the most gorgeous man I’d ever laid eyes on. He asked me to dance, and our chemistry was off the charts.

I knew it wasn’t a good idea to get involved with him, considering the wedding I was at. But our connection was intense, and I was having a great time.

Though the fun came to a screeching halt when Hudson figured out I wasn’t who I’d said I was. You see, that unexpected invitation I received? Well, it hadn’t actually been addressed to me - it was sent to my ex-roommate who’d bounced a check for two months’ rent and moved out in the middle of the night. I figured she owed me an expensive night out, but I guess, technically, I was crashing the wedding.

Once caught, I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. As I bolted for the door, I might’ve plucked a few bottles of expensive champagne off the tables I passed, all while the gorgeous, angry groomsman was hot on my tail.

Outside, I jumped into a taxi. My heart ricocheted against my ribs as we drove down the block - but at least I’d escaped unscathed.

Or so I thought.

Until I realized I’d left my cell phone behind at the table.

Take one guess who found it?

This is the crazy story of how Hudson Rothschild and I met. But trust me, it’s only the tip of the iceberg.

One of the best!

This is one of the best books I have listened to on Audible. There is so much more than just sex in this book, although there is enough! Great job Ms. Keeland! I can't wait for more like this!

Vi Keeland does it again! Amazing book!

Another amazing book by Vi! I was so looking forward to this book and Vi didn't let me down. Loved Hudson & Stella. So many great nuances throughout the story that kept me on my toes. Loved it. Amazing narration by Andi Arndt & Sebastian York as always!

Beautifully written

Vi Keeland is a favorite author of mine so it was no surprise that I loved this story. Stella and Hudson had a rocky start with misunderstandings, miscommunications and emotional baggage, but the spark was there from the beginning. It’s not exactly a slow burn but more a raging fire that they were both hesitant to touch fearing they will get burned. And as with the best of romance novels just when you think the HEA is inevitable there is a huge twist/hurdle they must conquer in order to reach that ultimate conclusion. But don’t worry, the HEA is there. Andi Arndt and Sebastian York are a power couple (so to speak) and deliver everything I wanted and more from this performance. Andi has the most adorable child’s voice! Vi Keeland has done it again. Bravo!

💔

Beautiful storyline but unfortunately both the hero and heroine experience heartbreaking betrayal. Makes me wonder if Hudson revealed Lexy and Jack's infidelity to Jack's wife.

Love this story!

I love love this story! Vi Keeland did it again! I feel like I say this all the dang time after reading one of her books but it’s true, she alway manages to bring me to tears in one or two scenes even when I’m sure I can handle what’s coming.
Hudson & Stella met under interesting circumstances, the latter crashing the former’s sister’s wedding. But after starting off on the wrong foot, Hudson & Stella slowly becomes friends and colleagues but the sparks and sexual tension are high.
As usual with Ms. Keeland’s story, there will be a twist or maybe in this case more of secrets being revealed. You just have to expect it and be prepared cuz it will be something big and usually for me, my mouth would be hanging open like damn, unbelievable! Then I ugly cry for a bit. And there were a few reveals in this story.

Sebastian York as Hudson was perfect! And especially in chapter 31, Mr. York can sure emote those feelings that Hudson was experiencing. He’s just such an awesome narrator and always a joy to listen to.

Andi Arndt did great as Stella too, but I especially like her as Charlie. It was adorable.

I highly recommend this audiobook!

WONDERFUL, SWEET STORY‼️❤️

I’ve listened to many romance books and this is one I really loved..
I love how Vi Keeland made these characters so normal and not full of BS. The Male character was so funny, sweet and respectful and very SEXY!! The female character was a strong independent female and so cute.
It’s a great book and so worth a credit.

Excellent

I loved the story, the characters and the performance. I think this is the first Audible reading that was flawless. Sebastian and Andi hit the ball out the park on this one!

Another gem from Vi

This story is lovely! Definitely worth the credit. The narrators rocked as per the norm.

Not the same ole same ole!

So many rom-coms have the same old story lines. But this one is refreshingly different. From the heroin's occupation to the secondary story line that picks up about half way thru the book. This is one you wont want to put down. Bring us more Vi Keeland.

One of My Favs

I always enjoy Vi Keeland’s work but with hot Nick Bateman on the cover it really set the tone for who Hudson is. But the story has depth without the heroine, Stella, being too whiney or clueless or insecure. And Hudson is, well ladies, he’s pretty hot and you’re rooting for him! But what brings this all together is the awesome voice work from Andi Arndt and Sebastian York—two amongst the top in their fields. Absolutely LOVED this book!
