Enjoy this steamy forbidden romance by USA Today Bestselling romance author Emma Bray…

Every guy knows the bro code. Thou shalt not touch thy best friend’s sister. It’s part of the bro code. Written in stone like one of the commandments.

But when my best friend’s little sister moves in next door, all bets are off. She’s the sweetest little thing I’ve ever seen—too perfect for my rough hands and dirty thoughts. I know I should stay away, but how can I, when her fluffy little menace of a puppy keeps barreling into my yard and dragging her with him? It’s like fate is laughing at me, daring me to break the rules.

I try to keep my distance. I really do. But every time she smiles at me, every time she tilts her head like she’s wondering why I’m holding back, I lose a little more control. She’s off-limits. Forbidden. But that only makes me want her more.

I’ll be good, I tell myself. I’ll keep my hands—and every other part of me—to myself. But the truth is, it’s only a matter of time before I snap. And when I do? She’ll know exactly who she belongs to.

This forbidden romance comes fully loaded with laugh-out-loud moments, an obsessed hero who will stop at nothing to claim what’s his, and steam so hot it’ll fog up your screen!

At his best friend’s invitation, Stone moves to California and ends up right next door to a gorgeous woman he sees chasing her frisky puppy. Both of them feel the sizzling chemistry. Could there be a future together for the two of them? But when Jeremy invites him to his home for dinner and Stone’s beautiful woman neighbor joins them, he is shocked to find she is Jeremy’s sister! The Bro Code means she is off-limits. But her puppy Trixie really likes Stone and keeps bringing him together with Mia. Will the two grown-ups follow their hearts, help Jeremy get over it if he objects, and allow themselves to fall in love? Or will Trixie never get the two people she loves most to unite them all in a HEA?

The narrator for the audiobook version is Erika Annette. She does an okay job with the voices with good inflection, but I had hoped the male voices would be slightly different. Narration, male, female all sounded pretty much the same making it difficult to sometimes figure who is talking except by context. When the voices match up correctly, they will make it easy for the listener to get an accurate idea of what each character is like. That would help to set the mood better as well.

It's a fun take on the brother's best friend trope. Stone and Mia are perfect for each other and I enjoyed their story. It's got a little angst and an adorable Pomeranian to coo over! It's a bit of a slow burn compared to most of Bray's works, but it's still fun!

I liked the narrator! She was nice to listen to and did a good job with the voices.

This is a short and quick read, or listen. The narrator did a really good job with the story. The story is a stand alone one and part of the multi-author "Love at First Bark" series. The story is about Mia and Stone who end up being neighbors and falling hard a fast for each other. There is one problem though, there is a bro code that neither knows exist. Stone meets Mia and instantly knows she is the one. They temporarily parts ways and then surprisingly meet at her brothers. Stone just happens to be her brothers best friend. This is a sweet and steamy read with a very protective brother who is hard to like at first. I like the characters and of course the adorable fur baby.

This is one of the sweetest, quirkiest novellas I've read in a long time. Stone and Jeremy are best friends from college, but now live on opposite coasts. There's nothing keeping Stone in New York, so he picks up and moves to be closer to Jeremy in California. He realizes he's living right next door to the most beautiful girl in the world when she comes running across the yard chasing after her puppy. Mia has lived under the control of her brother and because she's younger than he is, he doesn't think she's capable of making decisions or doing things for herself. Big brothers! With Stone and Mia, it's a definite case of lust at first sight, but it seems that there's a possibility of so much more. But things get complicated when Stone goes over to Jeremy's home for dinner and who should be there but Mia. How did he not put two and two together when he knew Jeremy had a little sister named Mia and voila! What do they do since Jeremy has threatened anybody who puts his hands on Mia and she and Stone have done a lot more than that. Stone makes a quick decision and hurts Mia by his actions. The story is so cute, so sensual and the perfect length to create characters with enough substance for us to feel what they feel and see what they see. I loved it! Erika Annette does a tremendous job with the narration. I like being able to tell all male and female characters apart and she succeeded with that. Her cadence and intonation gave each of the characters a unique personality. 

Delightful!
