About this listen
He’s grumpy. He’s charming. He wants me to stay with him in the woods.
And the craziest part?
I think I just might do it.
Colt Walker is a charming grump.
Okay fine. He’s a hot, charming grump.
I’ll give him that.
Even though me being stuck out here alone is my own fault.
He doesn’t make me feel bad about it.
Or ask me my why I’m trying to avoid my stepsister’s wedding.
He just scoops me into his arms and carries me off into the woods.
Back to his cabin. Where he lives.
I’m not normally like this.
I swear.
But there’s something kind of nice about being cared for.
Being protected.
And now that he wants me to stay the night
I’m not sure if I’ll ever want to leave…

Working in the lodge’s kitchen, my job is to keep the food coming and make the guests happy. Every morning, when the older, rugged ranger comes in for breakfast, I can’t stop my heart from racing. David is completely off-limits—he’s my boss’s brother, and one wrong move could ruin everything. The way his eyes linger on me, like he’s imagining all the things he wants to do…it makes me wonder if taking the risk might be worth it.

Story
I have three problems. The first is my grumpy boss, Hendrix, making my job ten times harder. The second is Claire and her mean girl clique in town. The third problem is my biggest. See, I just lied and told everyone in town that Hendrix, and I have been secretly dating. I only did it to get Claire and her friends to stop making jokes about me being perpetually single. Now I’m just hoping that Hendrix never finds out what I did.

Studying in London was an amazing experience, but was it worth it? That’s the question I keep asking myself. It cost me a lot. It cost me Colin Hill. I’ve been in love with that boy since the first time I saw him in grade three. I thought that breaking up with him before college was the right thing to do. But now, I’m not so sure.

Story
Leaving my bankrupt island for this frigid mountain is the last thing I want. When my father sends me off to marry a wild prince in exchange for a dowry that can save the country, I do my duty. Hunter is determined to sleep with me, but the last thing I need is for him to bed me and leave me before I get him to the altar. Problem is, my panties are soaked every time he glances my way. And my heart? It’s racing the moment his lips so treacherously meet mine. It’s not just my reputation at stake; my entire country is counting on me. No pressure.

Chasing rumors of a legendary beast prowling these mountains sounded like the perfect thrill. When I finally find it, things don’t go as planned—because instead of a mythical creature, I end up spraying a very human, very furious ranger with bear spray. Whoops. Alex may be intimidating, but he's also as stubborn as I am. Now, the real challenge isn’t finding the beast… It's dealing with a man who might be more than I can handle.

Story
A hockey player who loves to read? Unheard of, right? I always let their teasing roll off my back and keep my head in the game, until they send a curvy little firecracker to my door with a special delivery. And by "special delivery" I mean the filthiest books the jerks could find in Silver Spoon Falls. Now, my head is everywhere except in the game . . . and so is my heart. Both are tangled up in the smart-mouthed little goddess who thinks she can fight what's happening between us. Allie Mackenzie is wrong, and I intend to prove it to her. Repeatedly, in fact.

Novella type audible
This novella type audiobook is the first book of the series I have listen/read as well as the first story written by this author I have come across. So I truly didn’t know what to expect.
The plot takes the listeners to a resort owned by a group of brothers, all “mountain type men”. A little rough around the edges but Intelligent and hunky.
Colt Walker is one of these men. He’s quiet and some might call grumpy. But he becomes a knight in shining armor when he rescues Sophie after a fall in the hiking trails.
A hiking trip Sophie would have avoided except she’s there for her step-sister’s wedding and this one of the activities. Their relationship is not great, but for her father, she’s making the effort, even if her step-sister is mean and is constantly putting Sophie down.
Needless to say, the rescue leads to an instalove fest.
I am not a fan of either novellas or instalove, but that said, this was a cute story perfect for an afternoon of leisure.
I was entrusted a copy of this audiobook. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

where’s the grump?
Colt was not any grump other than being tired of the tourists even though he’s co-owner of the resort and does fitness training by appointment.
I found the story to be more sweet than sexy, but first you have to get past Sophia being bullied by her stepsister Jessica and Sophia’s negative body image. Banks was more effective in bringing across those negative feelings than giving the Instalove warm fuzzies. Other than Colt sampling her honey, I don’t recall anything explicit, so that’s also not here.
The narration was fine for the story.

Zero grumpy, all curvy girl insecurity
He’s charming from boo, whereas she’s curvy girl insecure until the lukewarm nooky at the end.
Not horrible, but nothing to write home about.
The narrators had different pacing, with him fast to her slow.
