About this listen
Rule number one of bro-code: exes, sisters and of course, wives are off-limits.
Don't think about them and sure as hell don't kiss them.
But what if your best friend dies, and suddenly you want the woman who has always been his?
Four years ago my childhood friend lost his life serving our country, and Astrid and her kids became my responsibility.
But before I knew it, something started to shift between us.
Her smile started to make my stomach twist. Our conversations gave me something to look forward to. And working with her made me appreciate just how strong she truly was.
But then one night, I did the one thing I shouldn't have but couldn't fight any longer—I kissed her.
She pushed me away, told me it was a mistake, and begged me to forget it ever happened.
And then she shoved me deep and fully into the friendzone, where I've resided since then.
Until one instance changes everything and I know for certain she's the woman I want.
Just when I think were on the same page, a secret from our past threatens to destroy our future.
I shouldn't want my best friends widow. I shouldn't care what other people think.
But in the end, the only thing that matters is being someone Astrid deserves, and I'll stop at nothing until she believes that too.

Story
One letter changed my life. One night with him might change my forever. Inheriting a beach house in a small town you've never heard of is less than ideal. Falling for the broody bar owner who hates me because he wants the house? Even worse. I came to Carrington Cove for one reason: to renovate the home I knew nothing about, sell it, and get back to my life in D.C. and my multi-million dollar business. There was nothing on the agenda about falling for Dallas, the sexy former Marine who chastises me about my manners and withholds how to fend off the murderous geese on my property.

Story
For a long time now, I’ve despised Weston Shaw. He’d been someone I’d admired, taking my favorite football team, the Colorado Mustangs, to the Super Bowl. But that all turned upside down after one night that had nothing to do with me. We share one undeniable connection: his son, Caleb. Unfortunately, the circumstances behind that have never been my story to tell. But now, the truth is out, and I’m left to deal with the consequences. I’m living under the same roof as Weston, and each day, I discover a side of him I never expected.

Aspen Davies had three reasons to move to the small town of Amber Ridge: to get away from her overbearing mother; to escape the clutches of her psychotic ex; and Jesse Hayes. Okay, maybe Jesse isn’t a reason to relocate her entire life. After all, he’s just a friend. A housemate. And someone she absolutely is not going to date. At least…that’s what she keeps telling herself.

Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

Especially when you find out they work for your dad—after you’ve already slept with them. Moving to my parents’ small town was supposed to be the fresh start I was looking for. When a disastrous Valentine’s Day leads to an unexpected encounter with a sexy stranger, and ends with the hottest night of my life, I didn’t think I would ever see Whip again.

Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house. He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall.

I never thought I’d be a runaway bride. But when it came down to it, I just couldn’t marry the wrong man. So, I ran. And somehow, I ended up in Star Falls, Colorado—stranded, no luggage, no plan—in a wedding dress with a past I’d rather forget. Fate lands me in the only available rental in town, a cozy little cabin… right next door to Byron Miller, the brooding billionaire who wants nothing to do with me. Or this town.

The first time I met Dawson Reed, we wound up in bed. The problem was, neither of us knew the other were there. When I woke up in the middle of the night and found a stranger next to me, instinct kicked in and I attacked the intruder. Only it turned out, the man wasn’t an intruder at all. Dawson had rented this cabin, too. Apparently, a system glitch allowed a duplicate booking. We’d soon find out we were in town for the same wedding, and Dawson was the groomsman I’d been warned about. He was as tall, dark and jaw-droppingly gorgeous as my best friend had described.

Just one unforgettable moment in the dark and then he was gone. Now Maria is a divorced single mom, moving on and open to romance again. Fatefully, it’s with the new head chef at her sister’s restaurant: Enzo. A gentler man than the one she remembers, yet fire still burns. And a warning still lingers: don’t get too close.

Fatefully, it’s with the new head chef at her sister’s restaurant: Enzo. A gentler man than the one she remembers, yet fire still burns. And a warning still lingers: don’t get too close.

Story
For a long time now, I’ve despised Weston Shaw. He’d been someone I’d admired, taking my favorite football team, the Colorado Mustangs, to the Super Bowl. But that all turned upside down after one night that had nothing to do with me. We share one undeniable connection: his son, Caleb. Unfortunately, the circumstances behind that have never been my story to tell. But now, the truth is out, and I’m left to deal with the consequences. I’m living under the same roof as Weston, and each day, I discover a side of him I never expected.

It didn’t take long for news to spread that Tagger Grange was back in Peachtree Pass. I found out even faster when I fell right into his arms—not by choice. The barstool wobbled under me when reaching for a cheddar biscuit. They’re my weakness. Much like he used to be. Rolled up sleeves and tailored pants have replaced the boots and jeans my brother’s best friend once wore. But it’s not just the clothes that have changed. His shoulders are broader and he’s broodier. Somehow, he's even more handsome than ever.

Hayden Cole was my brother's best friend and the boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Broken smiles, dark hair, and eyes that had seen far too much for his age. We spent a summer together in secret. In the darkness, in the silence, our hearts spoke the same language. Until he left without a word and tore mine right out of my chest. Ten years later, he returns from the Navy, demanding a second chance. He's every inch the rogue I remember—crooked smiles and dark eyes—but now he's a man grown. Tall and broad and persistent.

Narration: 🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧 (0-5)
Overall: 4.5/5
Steam: 🔥🔥🔥☄️ (0-5) I bump up for public places/outdoor spaces.
What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 Vanessa Edwin and Aiden Snow give us a fantastic show in this narration, especially the steamy parts—they are hot! Vanessa Edwin, you did amazing with that first time, making the intimate conversation so scrumptious! Aiden Snow, I feel like it’s been a while, and you totally got me with your f***, baby!
🤩 Deceased husband’s best friend and those forbidden type feelings.
🤩 Such a well-written and captivating story from the start. The flashback chapters are perfectly placed.
🤩 Penn Sheppard (aka Uncle Penn) is so amazing with Astrid and her kiddos—he is total book boyfriend material. I looooooove the Hershey’s kisses and Ferrero Rocher as symbols of his love and care.
🤩 Secret pining, once she’s ready.
🤩 A little jealousy/possessiveness to get things moving works on me.
🤩 The single mom trope and sneaking around, yessssss! It’s laugh out loud hilarious!
🤩 Smells like sugar!!
What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 I love how this widow trope starts; however, I wish Astrid would have let sweet, beautiful, amazing Penn in on her secrets quite a bit sooner. I don’t like my MMC feeling second best.
💫 I was wishing for some steamy intimacy after the honesty.
Hilarious & steamy single mom

Penn was so sweet and caring, and he was absolutely in love with Astrid. Honestly, he was just a great guy all around — always helping others.
Astrid was also sweet, and she was such a great mother. She truly made sure they knew they were loved. And I loved how passionate she was about her baking.
This was angsty and emotional, but it also had so much love and healing. I enjoyed their story and can’t wait for the next book!
Narration Style: Dual
These two did a great job bringing the story to life. Aiden’s voice was perfect for Penn, and Vanessa truly brought out all of Astrid’s emotions. Also, her “male” voice was very believable.

Harlow James did it again!! Someone You Deserve is a beautiful story about finding love and fighting for it.
Astrid and Penn have been friends for a long time. Specially after Astrid's husband who was Penn's best friend pass away. Penn has been the friend Astrid and her two kids needed. He was so sweet and caring, always spending quality time with them but what started as friendship becomes something more that either of them wanted to admit for fear of loosing that one of a kind friendship.
Penn has always been a people pleaser, trying to help in any way he can so when Astrid becomes the brand new owner of her dream bakery he is more than happy to help only there is a man trying to convinced Astrid to go on a date and this is what triggers Penn to finally go for what he wants and finally make Astrid his.
Astrid has keep a secret from Penn that might damage their friendship. So she felt guilt and this was one of the reason she didn't let go. She keep pinning after Penn until he made his intentions very clear which it was so hot and with his help she starts to let go of the pass and with every step they take together they realise that they are meant for each other.
🎧The narration of this book was absolutely fantastic. Aiden Snow and Vanessa Edwin did an amazing job bringing these characters to live with the extra layer of passion, swoony moments and incredible family time.
This story was beautiful!!!

Astrid is a single mom widow and Penn was her husband's best friend. No matter how much they want each other, they never acknowledge it.
Penn doesn't want to betray the memory of a friend, Astrid doesn't want to cause small town scandal. The angst around these two and their inner thoughts slayed me. They both deserve to be happy and when they finally break and give in to their feelings... hot damn it is the best thing EVER. Frosting and sanitizing workstations go hand in hand.
The audio was performed so amazingly by Vanessa Edwin and Aiden Snow. Both of these narrators gave incredible performances. The emotions and the passion and the kid voices! OMG the KIDS!!! There were some absolutely hilarious moments that broke my composure. Laughing out loud on the street unable to contain myself. Such an amazing production.
I requested and was provided with an advanced copy of both the Audiobook and eBook. These are my honest opinions.
Love this one so much!!

Astrid is the widow of Penn's best friend, which makes their feelings for each other complicated. But there's no denying that they are meant to be together. I loved the way that they supported each other first as friends, which only was enhanced when they became more. Penn is the absolute perfect partner, and it made me happy that Astrid got to experience the difference between a good and a poor partner. Another thing that I loved was how Astrid didn't let her relationship with her ex affect what their kids thought of their father.
Aiden Snow and Vanessa Edwin are both ntm narrators, and I gotta say they were perfect for this story. They brought all the feels and absolutely killed it.
Quote: “This is it for me. This is what I want. You and the kids. A life of the two of us chasing our dreams together, lots of naked times, and late-night talks. I want to build a future with you because you are the woman that was meant for me.”

Penn is a Mr. do-it-all handyman. I really loved him and his heart. He is truly such a great guy. He always helps anyone who needs him. Astrid is a strong, single mom trying to follow her dreams after putting them on the back burner for so long. I loved how supportive & encouraging they both were to each other. I LOVED watching these two finally accept their feelings and act on them. They were both so hesitant to give in. They both had new businesses and what would the town think of Astrid dating her dead husband's best friend? They kept it under wraps for a while until they couldn't anymore. The chemistry between them was absolute fire. I loved seeing Penn's relationship with her kids. It was so freaking sweet. And daddy's kisses. Oh my heart. This one had me feeling all the emotions... I found myself laughing out loud one moment and tearing up the next.
10/10 recommend the audiobook for this. Aiden Snow has such a good, deep growly voice that you cannot help but love. Vanessa Edwin is a master narrator. I love how different she can make all the characters sound and her voice is so sweet. These two brought the emotion to life for sure. If you're an audiobook lover, this is a fantastic one to listen to.
"Us together...is right, Astrid. I know it with every fiber of my body, and I don't care if the timing isn't right or how hectic our lives are, I want to be with you. Really be with you. I'm tired of fighting it."
