About this listen

The deal is simple: the grumpy guy will pay off my debt if I find him a wife.

Holden Rhodes is grouchy, unfairly hot, and has hated me for years. He's the last person I'd choose to inherit an inn with. As we renovate the inn and practice his dating skills, I see a different side of him.

Was I all wrong about Holden?

When we add ‘friends with benefits’ to the deal, our chemistry is so hot the sparks could burn down the inn. Holden’s a secret romantic, and I’m secretly falling for him.

I’m terrible at bartending, a video of a bear stealing my toy went viral, and everyone in this small town knows my business, but Holden Rhodes is so much more than I expected.

I don't want him to find love with anyone but me.

A spicy grumpy-sunshine friends-with-benefits small town romantic comedy with an HEA. This is book 3 in the Queen's Cove series, but can be read as a stand-alone.

Amazing!

I loved this audiobook!! I have loved Stephen Dexter as a narrator since I listened to him as Ryke in the Addicted/Calloway Sisters series. Loved his voice then and I absolutely adored him as Holden Rhodes. I don't think Holden could have been cast better. Vanessa Edwin is also absolutely phenomenal as Sadie. Together, their duet performance of In Your Dreams, Holden Rhodes was a top listen of 2023.

Narration aside, the story was really cute. Stephanie Archer is an incredible romance writer! She brings the butteflies to flight in my stomach. I think I say it in all of her reviews, but her first kiss scenes are some of my favorite. Yes, the book covers are cute but the spice is always top tier.

Thank you Stephanie for hooking me up with a code to listen to this audiobook. Fans of romance and audio should listen to this one asap. It's so good!

Cade and Willa 2.0!!

Ok love this author and these narrators are so good together glad we got to hear them in a duet style, it was literally like being back with Willa and Cade from Heartless again! The story was great just a little bit at the end there was a bit too much of Sadie constantly telling herself negative thoughts but the ending was great and overall loved!

And I thought I couldn’t love it any more…

It’s rare that an audio performance can make me enjoy a story even more, but this one did!

I read the Kindle version of In Your Dreams when it first came out, but still wanted to listen to it since it had been a while… and I’m so glad I did! The performers were able to draw you into the story and make you feel as though you were in the room with them. The dual POV was perfect and hearing them have conversations together just made it even more realistic.

And then there’s the story itself. I’m convinced Archer can do no wrong when it comes to romance. I love the grumpy/sunshine trope and this was such a unique take on it.

This was a 10/10, even for those that have already read the book.

Perfect

I throughly enjoyed this audio book. The MC’s were both amazing and the voice of Stephen Dexter is what 💦 dreams are made from. Good Lord that man’s voice 🤤. The story is an enemies to lovers, small town grumpy sunshine. Holden needs to be bottle up and kept safe this mans 💜 is gold. Sadie smart mouth is everything, her and Holden’s back and forth made the story. The 🌶 scenes in audio took it to another level. Amazing read definitely a book to add to the physical copy stack.

Stephanie Archer is now an auto-read author for me - if she writes it, I’ll read it with gusto! I loved being back in Queen’s Cove with all the quirky townsfolk. And also, what a performance! Both narrators sounded exactly as I would expect our characters to sound! The magnetism between Holden and Sadie was the best! They were perfect for each other even when they pretended to hate each other. Stephanie delivered emotion, laughs, swoon worthy dialog, and panty melting spicy scenes. My only wish was for no 3rd act breakup - my romantic heart can’t take it. I cannot wait to get the next audiobook for Finn’s story!

Stephen Dexter is THE Holden!!

I loved listening to my favorite misunderstood Grump come to life😭💜
Holden is my favorite Rhodes brother and this audio does the book and characters so much justice. They sounded how I imagined they would. Throughout the series he tugged at my heart strings and now after listening to this book it made me love him even more!!

All he’s ever wanted was somebody to love and for them to love HIM BACK 🥺🥺 He goes above and beyond to try and get Sadie to stay and convince her to give him a chance. All the things he did for her to build her up and support her had me feral. HOLDEN SUPREMACY 4EVR

Stephanie’s books never fail to envelop you completely into Queens Cove and this audio makes you wish you were actually there and these characters weren’t fictional 😭

A 5⭐️ listen!! And I recommend listening to all her other audiobooks as well. I’ve listened to all of them and can say without a doubt that you will not regret it!!

these voice actors brought such fun!

okay so I loved this book! All of the Queens Cove books are so good at mixing spice and full on comedy. I was a little worried that the some of the jokes wouldn't be as funny said out loud. I WAS WRONG! Everything about the Aliens landed. LOL this book has comedy, spice, second chances, grumpy sunshine, and the perfect pacing to leave you wanting to read more.

Made me love the book even more

I really love the Queen's Cove Series and have since I read it the first time. I loved listening to the audiobook and it really made me love this book even more. The narrators were great as well.

I love how much Holden cares about Sadie, and how he is trying so hard to get her to fall for him. And of course there was plenty of spice as you should expect from a book by Stephanie Archer.
