About this listen
This single dad is about to ruin all her plans.
Addison’s plan was simple. Leave her cheating prick of a husband and move back to Ireland to live out her dream. Sounds easy enough, right? Wrong.
After his unexpected loss, Blake’s focus is his daughter happiness. But finding a sopping wet Addison’s wrapped in only a towel turns his thoughts to his own future and the possibility of finding love once again.
Blake ignites excitement and passion in Addison she’s never experienced before, but when her ex drops another bombshell, will she decide that’s enough to keep her in Ireland for good?
Ruined Plans is the first book in Tracy Lorraine’s steamy single dad Ruined trilogy.

Story
I loved to hate her...She made it so easy. She was everything I wasn’t - everything I didn’t want to be. A reminder that from the moment I was born, I was the outcast. The rebel. I went against everything that was expected of me and created a life on my terms. I built my own empire, carved out my own destiny. Then she shows up at my tattoo studio, representing everything I tried to escape. She expects to just fit in...like she ever could. The posh girl trying to prove everyone wrong...that she can be something else - someone else. She hates me because she knows I’m right.

Story
Emmett Lasker is impossible to work for. He might be model handsome and stupidly wealthy, but he also has it out for me. He’s given me more last-minute and weekend requests than anyone else, ruining any plans I make. I should quit. And I will. Just as soon as I hit my two-year anniversary and earn out my signing bonus. But after a particularly awful day at work, a breakup (via text!), and my computer crashing, I’ve had enough! So at 11:59 Friday night, I barge into Emmett’s office to tell him what I really think of him. Only, that’s not what happens. AT ALL.

Hockey star Max Yearwood was everything I needed at the time - fun, sexy, up for anything, and only around for a few months, since he’d signed with a new team 3,000 miles away. Max proposed we spend the summer helping me forget my ex. It sounded like a good plan. Things couldn’t get too serious when we had an expiration date. Right? Though, you know what they say about the best-laid plans.

What's worse than having Rider Kingston, the star quarterback, give you the big brushoff because he doesn't want to get serious? You'd probably think living across the street from him where you get a firsthand view of his hookups, right? That's what I thought. Until someone drops off a baby with a note pinned to her blanket that says one of those jocks - either Rider or one of his roommates - is the father. The problem? Baby mama doesn't mention which of these numbskulls is the sperm donor. I wouldn't care about their paternity problems - except my brother lives there too.

Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Becoming a nanny was not part of my plan, but when tragedy strikes, I need a new beginning. I've given up on the idea of love, so living with a stranger shouldn't be a problem. My past broke me beyond repair, and I’ve learned to accept that. What I’m not prepared for is my new boss to be the unbearably sexy single dad Dexter Cross. He exudes a confidence I’ve never known and brings out a sass I didn’t know I had. Teasing him comes naturally, but the more time I spend with him and his children, the harder I fear it will be to leave. And I must leave.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Unfortunately, that requires her to interact with Marc—her best friend’s troublemaking brother, who’s now a tech billionaire. He’s the one who got away. She’s the one who broke his heart. Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

I want more!
Addison decides to leave everything behind in London after she catches her husband cheating. She seeks refuge in her hometown in Ireland, a place she left for what she thought were better and bigger things. Putting her life into perspective, Addison decides to be her true self and give in to her dreams of decorating cakes and opening a bakery.
She is not there to find love, much less to meet a man. But destiny has bigger plans. As much as she tries to fight it, there is a connection with Blake McCarthy, a single dad, and widower. The attraction is undeniable. But just when she is ready to give in, her recent past comes back to bite her.
Ruined Plans is the first part of the trilogy. And it left me wanting more. I guess I'll jump into the next book to find out what will happen next.
I enjoyed the narration by Nicole Blessing. Although, I'll be honest, it took me a minute to get used to the accent.

Just left me hanging
This book just didn’t work for me. Yep narrator was ok, but a little monotone. The story took a while to build up, then ended so abruptly. Honestly, I would have expected it to be the first book in a series given the sudden end.

enjoyable start of a romance
A fast paced really well written immediately addictive story including great characters. Addison goes back to what she feels is home after finding out her husband was cheating. As she tries to pull herself together more secrets are revealed she meets single dad Blake who makes her see and feel things. Ends on a cliffhanger wanting for more. Narrated fantastically really bring you into the story.

Enchanting beginning!
Addison is a lawyer in London whose life is about to take a different path. Her husband is a lawyer, too, and a rigid man who expects her to dress in Gucci and high heels every day. Their relationship isn't the best, but when she finds him with her own PA on his desk, that's the end. Addison grew up in Ireland, so she goes home to find herself again. Her godmother, Aunt Addy, welcomes her and lets her know that she can stay as long as she wants. She needs some time to find what she'd like to do. What she has always loved, since she was a child, is to bake! Perhaps she can find a building to convert into a bakery once she receives her divorce settlement. A problem with the water shutting off in the middle of her shower sends her to the garage to check if a fuse is blown and right into an encounter with the electrician. But, he's not the electrician! He's the boyfriend of Addison's best friend and Aunt Addy's daughter, Kayleigh, who recently passed away. She can't forget the looks he gave her and the feelings she had when they first looked at each other in the garage. He's interested, but Addison isn't sure it's the right thing to do. She finally follows her heart instead of her mind, but once more her world is going to change. This is the first part of the series and ends in a mild cliffhanger. An enchanting tale!
I both read and listened to Ruined Plans and the narration is beautifully done by Nicole Blessing. Not only is her accent delightful, so is the pronunciation of the Irish words.

Hot Single Dad
I went into this not knowing it was in 3 parts. So when it came to an end I was pleasantly surprised to know the others parts were available since I die with cliffhangers. The story held me so much I immediately bought the 2 other parts so I could finish the story. I will say it was worth the listen to hear all 3 parts. Give it a listen.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Excellent Series
I first read this series by Tracy Lorraine and was excited to learn that an audio version was produced. These are not standalone books. They are very well written with a great storyline. This was a beautiful romance between a broken, but strong woman and a committed, single dad. My heart broke several times through this series. When a physical reaction occurs while reading, it receives high star ratings from me. I was invested in the characters and hope to see more of them. I especially hope for a Jason and Cara story.
Nicole Blessing is an excellent narrator. She has a smooth voice with a great accent. Her performance kept the book rolling through my head. I didn't want to pause the book when necessary.
