Publisher's summary

A best-friends-to-lovers standalone romance from New York Times best-selling author Kendall Ryan

She says she needs some help...in the bedroom.

Come again? No, really come again.

Sweet, nerdy, lovable Keaton.

She's my best friend and has been for years. Sure she likes numbers and math, and thinks doing other people's taxes is fun. And I like...none of that stuff. She's obsessed with her cat and reads novels I'll never understand, and yet we just click. There's no one I'd rather share breakfast burritos with or binge watch hours of Netflix with. She's my person.

And so when she takes off her glasses and asks me to help her improve her skills in the bedroom, I barely have to think about it.

Of course I'll help her. There's no one better for the job.

I've been there for her through everything, why should this be any different?

But what happens when she's ready to take her new-found confidence and move on?

This audiobook includes a bonus sneak preview of Finding Alexei, which is a spin-off story and only available in audio in this edition of Love Machine. It is narrated by Erin Mallon and Jason Clarke.

Fun minimal angst romance for all

I like the lighthearted, flirty KR book every now and then. This is one of them. This BFF to lovers has a twist - it's the girl who's not ready to commit! Actually, she is not ready to believe HE is... but she is a bit dense with being a work-focused girl. I liked the characters, they were relate-able and kind to one another. Dialogue good, sex pretty steamy... and if you get the audio version where the book ends rather abruptly, and a "Chapter One" voice pops up with a different narrator, don't be confused! It's the Sneak preview of her new book Finding Alexei... and listen to that because it's really good too!! :)

5 organized friends to lovers stars

I need friends like this in my life. Someone who will go to any length to cheer me up when I’m upset, someone to instruct me when I need “lessons”. Such a fun listen full of great food and how to sexy time.
The narration as always is lacking not one thing. Voices you want to always be in your ear.

Cute best friends to lovers story....

This was such a cute book about best friends turned into lovers story. Keaton and Slate's story all started when they met back in their college days and has hit it off since then. They are closer than close and are always there for one another even when an unconventional and embarrassing favor comes up that Slate (although hesitant at first) was down to do for his bestie. A chance to teach seduction and sex? Why have someone else do the dirty work when he is more than capable. Who better to learn from other than the one that knows you.

"Love is friendship, but it is friendship with fire in its belly."

The narraters of the story made the feels and the ride filled with swoony, LOL, and awkward and sweet moments between two people who are opposites: the popular and the nerdy who are growing to be more than just friends. A heartwarming read that had my stomach in knots and feeling giddy throughout the story.

Fantastic narration!!

I have to say Keaton and Slates story was narrated so well that I felt a part of it! They brought the characters to life and made it so enjoyable!
I really like both Sebastian and Andi’s voices! Particularly in certain steamy moments lol! Oh my goodness indeed!!! Love Machine as an audiobook is incredibly entertaining and you can’t help but love the characters more so than reading the actual book!
How this story has been brought to life is a real credit to the author and the narrators! Cant wait to listen to more from them!!

Friends to lovers

Keaton is a little nerdy and feels like she needs some help with her sexual prowess. She asks her best friend, Slate, to help her. They make a pact that it won't change their friendship and won't fall in love with each other, yeah right. Things go along smoothly for a couple months and then feelings do get involved. I really liked Slate and that he declared his love for Keaton first. Then comes the sticky part of trying to get past the friends with benefits. Do they go back to being friends or take the relationship farther? Andi Arndt and Sebastian York are two of my favorite narrators and they don't disappoint on this audio book. Kendall Ryan has written a great book, too. I enjoyed the bonus story, too. I can't wait for the next book! Definitely worth a credit!!

Misleading length of the story!

This is the second book I purchased that a 1 hr excerpt from another of Kendall Ryan’s books.
The story was good but short!

Adorable little gem

I always look forward to Kendall’s stories, she always delivers! Funny, sweet, easy going, sexy banter, and swoooooon!!! Yes Please! A tad predictable and I wish it was a little longer but that didn’t take away from the story, I enjoyed it all the same. Sebastian and Andi did a fantastic job! I can’t wait for the next in this series!!

Love Mashine

Kendall Ryan did it again! I liked the premises of falling in love with the person who promises to 'help' you. I enjoyed it all the way to the end. My one complaint! Why would you include another book that we can not get to? Finding Alexei, is nowhere to be found!!!!! Narrated by: Andi Arndt and Sebastian York Love these guys! They can do NO WRONG in my book!
