I loved everything about it, with just a minor exception – my safety friends would agree. Scandalous was an awesome book that I just didn’t want to stop listening to once I started. This is one messed up relationship but dang if it didn’t work. That despite the burning animosity they held for each other, he gave in to his desire.

I loved that Trent was so possessive of Edie.

This whole thing they have going on between them can lead no where but to disaster but he can’t stop himself from taking her and making her his. He doesn’t trust her at all, and yet she makes his little girl smile. Although Edie is almost half his age, Trent is being slowly driven crazy by the teenager. Setting her up in a job at his company, he tells her his expectations and sits back to wait. If she doesn’t do as he instructs, he will crush her in the worse way possible. Her father is also holding something against her, threatening what she holds most dear. He is dark and dangerous and despite being her father’s business partner, she is so very attracted to him. When Trent intervenes he warns her that he’ll use what he has on her at a future time. Edie carries a heavy burden and does everything she can to make sure that burden is cared for. They both gave so much life to the characters and helped to pull me deeper into the story. It's obvious they are doomed from the start and yet they still embark in.something.Absolutely loved the narration of this one!Īudiobook: Narrated by Savannah Peachwood and Christian Rummel The narrators did an exceptional job! I was never confused as to who was speaking or if they were speaking or thinking. We're treated to Edie being more than adorable with Luna, Trent's daughter, we see her caring for her family despite how hard it is, and we see Trent throw caution to the wind as he finds more reasons to spend time with Edie. Their attraction is purely based on looks and lust, but there's a child involved and a greedy father that should make them stay far apart and yet it draws them together. This book has so much chemistry between Trent and Edie that I started to feel like I was falling in love too. It is hands down, no questions asked, my favorite book from L.J. I knew I was in for it with every teaser and excerpt I read from Scandalous in advance of its release, but nothing prepared me for this book, nothing. Edie Van Der Zee is off-limits in every way and yet she and Trent are drawn to one another, like moths to a flame.

Mix in a bit of wild youth and compassion in the form of his business partner's daughter and you have one heck of an affair of the heart story. Take Trent Rexroth for example, our hero in Scandalous, he's never had a real relationship, he worked his way from the bottom to the top, and he is desperate for his daughter's happiness.
