Audiobook Review: Fractured Games (Arranged Games #5) by Simran, narrators Luna Rai and Shahjehan Khan

 

Blurb

“He thinks he’s unworthy of love. But I’m going to prove him wrong.”

Arya
I’ve been a good girl my entire life.
What did it get me?
Getting ditched at the altar and becoming a laughingstock in front of the world.
After stitching my broken heart together in hiding for months,
I bravely take a step back into reality,
Walking straight into another nightmare.
Until my white knight in shining armor struts in.
Nathan Singhania.
Beautifully broken. Insanely gorgeous. Lethally powerful.
The heartbreak in his eyes mirrored mine.
Our attraction burned hotter than lava.
When he swoops in as my knight again,
I give myself to him for one night.
No strings. No feelings.
The moment it’s over, his true colors come out.
Making me realize his charming act was a sinful trap.
Swearing off men forever, I pour myself into work.
But Karma isn’t done with me because when I step into the conference room,
The man sitting across the desk is none other than him.
Looking for a publicist to protect him from the scandal that disrupted his house of lies.

Nathan
The world has crowned me as the perfect gentleman.
It’s all false.
Because they don’t hear the hollow heart that beats inside my chest.
The chaos that lives in my head.
The lies on my tongue.
When the truth about my engagement is revealed that it was nothing but a sordid deal,
It causes the first crack in my perfect image.
Giving my enemies the opening they need.
Forced to hire a publicist, I don’t expect her to walk into the room.
Arya Chopra.
Elegant. Sexy. Sharp-tongued.
The woman who stirs my blood with a single glance,
Even when she throws daggers at me with her eyes.
Hiring her would be a test of my restraint. A distraction I cannot afford.
But when she turns the tables on me and says no in a bratty tone,
I take it as a challenge and show her who’s the boss.
Little do I know that I hired my own downfall.

Tropes:
Billionaire x Publicist
One Night Stand
Misunderstood Characters
Good Girl x Bad Boy
Fast Burn
Secret Hookups


Note: This is the fifth and final installment in the Arranged Games series. It features a morally grey billionaire and his sassy Publicist who goes toe to toe with him at every turn. Although it can be read as a standalone, it is recommended to read the series in order for better enjoyment and to avoid little spoilers.

My Review - 4 1/2 of 5 stars - 

4 1/2 stars. Two people from broken relationships found each other and stumbled their way to an HEA. Arya was dumped at the altar so she hid herself. She was stronger than she thought and worked hard to change her situation. Nathan was very possessive and domineering, mostly because of his family life. Despite the love growing between them, they continued with secrets and pushing the other away. I enjoyed how Nathan was still able to give up some control as he fell deeper. Definitely plenty of steamy scenes, and a very touching ending for the happy couple.
The narration by Luna Rai and Shahjehan Khan added to the story. They brought out the strength of the characters as well as the feelings.

This is my unsolicited review.
