One daring to-do list and a crash course in flirtation turn a type A overachiever’s world upside down.
When her flailing department lands on the university’s chopping block, Professor Naya Turner’s friends convince her to shed her frumpy cardigan for an evening on the town. For one night her focus will stray from her demanding job and she’ll tackle a new kind of to-do list. When she meets a charming stranger in town on business, he presents the perfect opportunity to check off the items on her list. Let the guy buy her a drink. Check. Try something new. Check. A no-strings-attached hookup. Check…almost.
Jake makes her laugh and challenges Naya to rebuild her confidence, which was left toppled by her abusive ex-boyfriend. Soon she’s flirting with the chance at a more serious romantic relationship – except nothing can be that easy. The complicated strings around her dating Jake might destroy her career.
Naya has two options. She can protect her professional reputation and return to her old life or she can flirt with the unknown and stay with the person who makes her feel like she’s finally living again.

感谢主播上传音频分享。无意中点进这个故事,随意听了一小段,彻底陷进情节,一直追着Jake和Naya这一条线,想着人物的后续互动,听力积极性极大调动。戏剧化的相遇,一步步渗透入对方的生活,揭开重重面纱,婚姻,爱情,事业,自我等。Jack的出现治愈了Naya,让她走出了前任Davis给她留下的阴影。女性在两性关系中往往是弱势一方,极容易受到暴力威胁。Naya生命中遇到Jake,会给予她尊重,会不吝赞美,用全心全意的爱去治愈和温暖受伤的她。一个简单的故事,简单的语句,跌宕起伏的情节,听完后,让人会心一笑,心里一暖。还是要相信爱情的存在,也绝对不能在爱情中迷失了自己,永远要守住自己。

声音清晰好听,演播专业到位。美国言情小说与国产的相比,除了男主多金高智外,还外加床上热情如火。真是太甜啦。
