Trust Me (Townsend Legacy Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 3,464 ratings

What happens when the cutthroat billionaire you’ve been sent to spy on finds out the truth?

Apparently…marriage.

Riley

Let me start from the beginning… To stay out of jail, I’m forced to spy on Kyle Townsend, the billionaire heir to the Townsend Industries throne. My plan is simple: infiltrate Townsend Industries, get evidence of their alleged illegal dealings, and fork it over to the person blackmailing me. Then I’ll be free to leave that life of crime behind me forever and raise my niece in the peace she deserves.

But Kyle’s smarter than the average trust fund baby. He’s also ruthless and distrustful. He never lets anyone in…until one day at work. I get sick. He’s there to care for me, feelings spark, and I end up in his bed.

He reveals his tender side. And now I’m wondering if my billionaire mark could be my perfect match.

But then he discovers the truth about me before I can tell him.

What happens when the merciless billionaire you’re supposed to spy on discovers the truth?

A revenge marriage contract.

Kyle

This marriage isn’t one of convenience… it’s for vengeance.

With Riley as my wife, I can feed misinformation to my enemies. I’ll use her to take them down and discard everyone threatening the Townsend name.

But what happens when the wife who’s supposed to be nothing more than a pawn ignites feelings you shouldn’t and don’t want to have?

A new fan is born!
This is my first 𝚃𝚒𝚏𝚏𝚊𝚗𝚢 𝙿𝚊𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚜𝚘𝚗 book. I devoured it! I loved the storyline, the characters, the chemistry! It was all beautifully chiseled. Riley & Kyle. One a blackmailed consultant, and one is the billionaire she's sent to spy on. And oh what characters they were! Both were strong willed, both have secrets. Both end up falling into an arrangement that neither may want to get out of. I loved watching as Riley worked her way into Kyle's life. From the first moment she conned her way into his company, to the moment the sparks were set, to the minute he fell....and fell hard.....for her. The dynamic between these two characters sizzled and twisted so many times! I loved it! 𝑊𝑒𝑠𝑙𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ 𝑆𝑖𝑜𝑏ℎ𝑎𝑛 is a phenomenal narrator. You could feel the passion that she put into bringing Riley to life! Her voice was beautiful! And, 𝑅𝑦𝑎𝑛 𝑊𝑒𝑠𝑡 voiced Kyle. His voice flowed smoothly and truly brought the grumpy billionaire to life for me! I felt like friends were telling me their story! I am very much looking forward to becoming a forever fan of this author! I was captivated in the most beautiful way and I didn't want the story to end. I can't wait to listen to more!

    WOW ! This is Awesome! It's a captivating romance that I absolutely enjoyed. It's filled with awesome characters and a great dialogue.There is plenty of sexy action to keep you entertained and there is a lot going on at any given time, which is not surprising. This is definitely entertaining story and that's a little vengeful, It will make you feel like smiling and bring your happy and sad tears to your eyes. But it's full of love with emotional drama. Along with this their sizzling hot passions will keep you turning pages until the end. I'm a fan of strong and brave women with men who have love for their women. There is lots of commentary that can be made but then I like it short and to the point myself. I really enjoy that the men are sexy and want to give their women better futures with of course their steamy passionate selves and their connections I enjoyed every moment of Riley and Kyle relationship It's one that made it so compelling that I didn't put my reader down until I finished the story. It's also connects to other stories and if you are like myself you will enjoy it because it's AWESOME!!!..

    Book is a bit mild on the spice than I usually read but flowed nicely. The story was a solid enough plot to keep my attention while I read.

    Kyle is very much Aaron Townsends son. I for sure thought the friendship fiasco that took place between Kyle and Dean was over and done with. Boy was I wrong. That dude (Dean) had led a miserable life and tried his hardest to drag everyone he encountered into his misery. Guess he never counted on Riley having the effect she did on Kyle or that he would flip the script on them BOTH. I cannot believe folks still try this family, you would think they would learn not to try ANYTHING cause it never works out! Guess that's what makes these books on the Townsend's enjoyable. We get to see how they deal with threats to the family name and their women! I'm there for it!

    This was a good book to start the Townsend Legacy. Kyle is a replica of his father. And Riley's love for her niece was touching. I loved how they became a family and the dedication of all three of them.

    Always fun to read a book about con artists and business men and a fun romp. I love Kyle’s response to being conned — well we’re getting married.
    He knew she was the one before he even realized. It was fun to see he and Riley’s relationship grow and all the sexy romps. The drama was also great. I loved trying to figure out who was behind everything. Excited for the next one.
