Capri

About This Audiobook

*Capri* isn’t just another romance—it’s a full-contact sport of emotions, where loyalty and lust collide in the most chaotic ways. Jahquel J. writes with the unfiltered rawness of a late-night confession, dropping you into a world where sisterhood and betrayal blur, and every hookup feels like a grenade pin being pulled. This isn’t a love story; it’s a *war* story, fought in DMs, backseats, and the kind of silence that screams louder than arguments. The dual narration by Wesleigh Siobhan and Lawrence Baldwin is a masterclass in tension—Siobhan’s voice drips with the kind of smug confidence that makes you root for Capri even when she’s dead wrong, while Baldwin’s delivery turns every male character into a live wire, unpredictable and electric.

What sets this audiobook apart is its refusal to sanitize. The prose cracks like a whip, switching between street-smart wit and gut-punch vulnerability without warning. The pacing mirrors Capri’s own restlessness: one minute you’re laughing at her audacity, the next you’re wincing at the fallout. It’s a rare romance that doesn’t flinch from the ugliness of desire or the cost of loyalty—and that’s why it lingers. If you’ve ever loved someone you shouldn’t, or defended a friend who didn’t deserve it, this will feel like eavesdropping on your own worst decisions."

"review": "I’ll be honest: I went into *Capri* expecting another ‘messy girl summer’ trope-fest, but Jahquel J. flipped the script. This isn’t just a story about a woman sleeping with her brothers’ friends—it’s a dissection of *why* she does it, and the way the audiobook forces you to sit with that discomfort is brilliant. Wesleigh Siobhan’s narration is the standout here; she gives Capri a voice that’s equal parts honey and razor blades, making her selfishness *charismatic*. When she delivers lines like *“I don’t owe nobody an explanation”*, you believe her—and that’s the problem. Lawrence Baldwin, meanwhile, brings a simmering intensity to the male roles, especially in the scenes where the brothers’ fury feels like a physical threat. The production is crisp, with no distracting edits, though I’ll say the music transitions between chapters occasionally hit *too* hard, jarring you out of the mood.

The story’s biggest strength—and its one real weakness—is its relentless pacing. The first half moves like a runaway train, with Capri’s antics escalating so fast you barely have time to judge her before the next disaster strikes. But by the third act, the emotional whiplash starts to feel *exhausting*. I found myself craving just one quiet scene to breathe, to understand what these characters actually want beyond the drama. That said, the raw, unfiltered dialogue (especially the group chats) is some of the best I’ve heard in audiobook romance. It’s not pretty, but it’s *real*—and if you’ve ever been the friend who enables bad behavior just to keep the peace, this will gut you. Not for the faint of heart, but for anyone who likes their love stories with a side of emotional shrapnel."
