This was a great book and the first that I have read from this author. I really enjoyed the relationship between the two main character's and I think the challenging subject matter was handled nicely. Without giving too much away, I think the main issue between the characters was solved in a way that felt realistic and I really appreciated that. Because it was something so serious, I really appreciated that I didn't feel like it was just brushed under the rug and was concurred easily.

I wish that there was a little more detail surrounding the conflict between the two brothers. I wanted a little more buildup, and discussion between the family. I think it was tied up too neatly for me, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Overall, I enjoyed the book and I thought the narrators did a wonderful job. I plan to look for more stories from this author.

So many people have praised One Eighty by Charity Shane' and I put this book on my TBR, knowing I'd get to it one day...it checks my favorite boxes: rich MMC, feisty FMC, marriage of convenience. Ding ding ding! I finally got around to reading it when I saw the audiobook available and it was sooooo good. OMG THIS IS WORTH THE READ! I highly recommend One Eighty because it's engaging and well written, it's emotionally charged, and the narrators are amazing. One Eighty might be one of my favorite reads for the year. 

Gideon is at his brother's wedding, knowing he has to fulfill his own obligation to get married so he can take control of his family's business. Everything seems run of the mill until Rhian and her cousin crash the wedding. Gideon's best friend Amon convinces the two women to take an impulsive trip to Vegas where Gideon and Rhian (who has her own reasons for wanting a husband), end up married. But now what?

I LOVED this book. The first thing I loved was that even though Gideon "needed" to get married for his family business and Rhian "needed" a husband for her bucket list, this was never a marriage of convenience book. Gideon stood on business the entire time, and Rhian's shyness and reticence about letting him in tore at my heart when I realized why. I was glad she gave herself a chance to be happy and let her guard down. The supporting cast was wonderful and the families saved the day. Gideon was a husband from start to finish, and didn't waver on his love or passion for his wife. His family business was a heavy load, especially after the betrayal and Rhian having her doubts was understandable. But the two of them together, their banter and chemistry, the way they eased into each other lives and then refused to let go was such a great story. I was engrossed from the beginning, and this is going in my top ten of 2024.
