Story
Claire is a 20-something, single mom who grudgingly helps her best friend sell sex toys while she attempts to make enough money to start her own business to give her foul-mouthed, but extremely loveable (when he's asleep) toddler a better life. When Carter, the one-night-stand from her past that changed her life forever, shows up in her hometown bar without any recollection of her besides her unique chocolate scent, Claire will make it a point that he remembers her this time. With Carter's undisguised shock at suddenly finding out he has a four-year-old son and Claire's panic that her stretch marks and slim-to-none bedroom experience will send the man of her dreams heading for the hills, the pair will do whatever they can to get their happily ever after.

Horrible narration
Reviewed: 10-25-21
I finally had to DNF this book about half way through. The story is probably pretty funny but also probably better read and not listened to. The narrator is very whiny, and it was never clear who's POV she was reading. She didn't speak in a male voice or tone and the chapters weren't titled so it took several sentences into each chapter to even figure out who was "speaking." Super annoying. I would probably give this book a better review once read because it did seem like it would be hilarious. Not worth the credit and I will probably look into returning it.

Story
He's the bastard of the empire, a savant, a genius, and a self-made success. He left it all behind, but he came back for her. Their passion is a flame that ignites more than their bond. It ignites secrets, lies, and a puzzle that once solved, will shake them to the core. You know one deep, dark secret, but you do not yet know anywhere near everything.

Fluff
Reviewed: 08-20-19
I felt like this book was just fluff. The first book was decent but this one's whole story line could have been summed up real quick in a chapter or two. But I will continue to book 3 just because I need to see what happens. Thankfully it's in the escape package because I would not have spent a credit on it.
Jason Clarke's voice is amazing as always, I wish more chapters were his. I have always loved Erin but the more I listen to her, the more kind of annoying it gets the way she drags out words. Like they are really breathy at the end of the word.
Overall, this book was just ok.

Story
I'm the bastard child, son to the mistress, my father's backup heir to the Kingston empire. He sent me to Harvard. I left and became a Navy SEAL, but I'm back now, and I finished school on my own dime. I'm now the right-hand man to Grayson Bennett, the billionaire who runs the Bennett Empire. I'm now a few months from being a billionaire myself. I don't need my father's company or his love. My "brother" can have it. I will never go back there. I will never be the mistake my father made, the way he was the mistake my mother made.

Story
Money or love? Which would you choose? You probably just answered the question in your head, thinking it's an easy decision. For me, it's not. Did I mention it's a lot of money? A hell of a lot. I needed to go far away to think it through. As I embarked on an impulsive trip, I hit a detour when I met sexy Carter in the airport lounge. We struck up a heated conversation. Then, he left. I thought I'd never see him again. But fate had other plans. Surprise! He was the pilot of my flight.

You can't go wrong with these narrators. Le swoon <3
A decent story, enough that I will def be listening to book 2 when it's out. The story doesn't actually span very much time. Cannon realizes in his relationship with Drew that she is hiding something and her true identity to him doesn't come out until the end, and then of course, a cliffhanger. Meghan March is the queen of trilogies/duets and this is no exception. Am looking forward to the next book!

Story
Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo. Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido.

I love a good hockey romance and this is no exception. I LOVE Heidi Jo's attitude and feisty-ness and the fact she is always doing something. Even if it's demeaning, per her father. You can't help but fall in love with her and Jason. They are perfect together.
Can I just say how much I LOOOOVE Jason Clarke's voice??? <3 all the hearts
Savannah was the perfect Heidi Jo <3

A magnificent new romance by New York Times best-selling author Emma Chase - available in audio first! Dean Walker is all about keeping life simple. He’s effortlessly talented and intelligent - spending his summers playing drums in the local band and the rest of the year teaching high school in the same Jersey town where he grew up. He likes his love life simple too, enjoying the commitment-free hook-ups his good looks and sexy charm have always made oh so easy. Then he meets Lainey Burrows. And his simple, easy life gets turned upside down.

I just love everything Aly Martinez writes. Her stories have so much depth and are so well written. And this is no exception. Flint trying to fight off his almost insta-love for Ash and Ash that keeps running from life out of necessity. All around a very good story.
Narrators were awesome, and Carson is becoming a fave male narrator.

The first book in the scorching new Hot Jocks series by New York Times best-selling author Kendall Ryan - available in audio first! I've never been so stupid in my entire life. Elise Parrish, my teammate's incredibly sweet and gorgeous younger sister, should have been off-limits, but my hockey stick didn't get the memo. After our team won the championship, our flirting turned physical, and I took her to bed. Then shame sent her running the next morning from our catastrophic mistake.

His voice.... swoon
Reviewed: 06-11-19
I'll admit, Kendall Ryan is hit or miss for me. This is kind of your typical fall for your brother's best friend/best friend's little sister... but there were several points in this story that had me laughing out loud. "My brother is a slut." Not sure why, but I laughed so hard at that. It's still a good story.
And O.M.G..... Jason Clarke's voice.... GAH! He's a fave of mine but still, he sounds different in this one, deeper maybe. But either way, SWOONY, heart eyes kind of voice. I couldn't wait until his chapters <3
Virginia was on point as well.
I'm looking forward to more books after this, I would love to hear about the secondary characters' stories.

They say revenge is a dish best served cold. I’d had four years to stew on what Daria Followhill did to me...now my heart was completely iced. I took her first kiss. She took the only thing I loved. I was poor. She was rich. The good thing about circumstances? They can change. Fast. Now, I’m her parents’ latest shiny project. Her housemate. Her tormentor. The captain of the rival football team she hates so much. Yeah, baby girl, say it. I’m your foster brother. There’s a price to pay for ruining the only good thing in my life. She’s about to shell out some serious tears.

Different....
Reviewed: 05-28-19
While I loved the Hotholes.... I did like this book, better than I thought I would considering the characters are in high school, which isn't usually my jam. I'm not a super fan of the way Melody was portrayed, considering I loved Defy, but I get characters evolve so it's not any kind of deal breaker for not listening to it.
Female narrator was fine, Angela is new to me. Maxine has very little time (one or two chapters maybe?). The male narrator, which in general was fine, I didn't really feel like his voice fit the character. Again, not a deal breaker, but by the time I listened to the entire book, I would have pictured Penn's voice a little deeper.
All in all, you can't go wrong with LJ Shen.
