About this listen

New York’s Finest Blogging as *The Socialmedialite*

April 22 LADIES AND GENTS! I have an announcement! You know that guy I featured on my blog a few months ago? The really, really hot Irish rugby player who plays the position of ‘hooker’ in the RLI (Rugby League International)? The one with the anger management issues, the body of a gladiator and the face of a movie star? The one with the questionable fashion choices leading me to ask whether he was the lovechild of a leprechaun and a hobbit? Ronan Fitzpatrick? Yeah, that guy. Well, I have a confession to make…

THE HERMIT
Annie Catrel, social media expert extraordinaire at Davidson & Croft Media and clandestine celebrity blogger, can make anyone shine in the court of public opinion. She is the Socialmedialite, anonymous creator of New York’s Finest and the internet’s darling. Virtual reality is Annie’s forte, but actual reality? Not so much.

THE HOOKER
Ronan Fitzpatrick, aka the best hooker the world of rugby has seen in decades, despises the media—social or otherwise. The press has spun a web of lies depicting him as rugby’s wild and reckless bad boy. Suspended from his team, Ronan has come to Manhattan to escape the drama, lay low, fly under the radar. Only, Ronan isn’t easy to overlook, and he can’t escape the notice of the Socialmedialite… THE PLAN When Ronan is sent to Davidson & Croft Media to reshape his public image, he never expects to cross paths with shy but beautiful Annie, nor does he expect his fierce attraction to her. He couldn’t be happier when her boss suggests pairing them together.

What lengths will Annie take to keep her virtual identity concealed? And what happens when the hooker discovers who the hermit really is?

The Hooker and the Hermit is a collaboration between authors L.H. Cosway and Penny Reid, is a full length 110k word novel, and is a standalone.

Extremely sexy little modern fairy tale. Penny Reid's sexy rom com is even hotter with the Irish accent and mild dominance themes. Can't wait to listen to the next in the series

Absolutely Delicious

I was pleasantly surprised to fund these books. the titles are a little off putting. Great series worth listening to. I listened to all in about 4 days.

Penny Reid is pretty much always a green light for me, especially when narrated by Joy Nash! Loved this story and the characters. I had a hard time with the male narrator's Irish accent, but overall a must listen

Penny + Joy = perfection!

Cute little distraction listen. Very cute with some fun twists. It was a little off for me, but a nice break from other spicy dark romance listens.

Cute cinnamon roll romance

First, if Penny Reid has written it, there is a 100% chance I’m going to read it and likely listen to it as well. I have laughed and cried and felt embarrassed on the character’s behalf too many times to count. So the book itself is a 10/10 in any form.
Second, I don’t know how to listen to other audiobooks now without being disappointed! Joy Nash is without a doubt and hands down my FAVORITE narrator. She’s extremely talented and humorous and adds so much to the stories she tells.
Third, if you’re reading reviews to decide whether or not this is for you, let me help. It IS FOR YOU. Do it. Download it. Listen and laugh.
Then while you’re at it purchase the entire Winston Brothers series by Penny Reid. Majority of those were narrated by Joy Nash along with Chris Brinkley. It worked. They were a great pair and I have zero regrets, nor shame, in admitting I’ve listened multiple times to the whole series.
K that’s all! I’ll go fan girl elsewhere now. 🙃

Narration 100/10!!!

Penny Reid is my favorite romance novelist! I’ve listened to the other books in this rugby series & was waiting to hear Ronin & Annie’s story. The authors didn’t disappoint!! I loved the depth they gave to the characters, the love Annie & Ronin had for each other & how hot they were together. They were a little kinky but in no way off putting. The narrators were also great!! I highly recommend all of the books in this series!!

Been waiting to hear Annie & Ronin’s story

This is a cute and hilarious story about a famous athlete and a hermit. They both have some growing and changing to experience before finding their happy ending. Great narration.

Really good

I first fell into in love with Ms Reid’s books with the Knitting in the City series. While I liked this book, and the bedroom scenes were steamy, I think I would have enjoyed it more if there weren’t quite so many bedroom scenes.

Love Penny Reid

I loved the story and the ending and the struggles people have when attracted to each other, but life has already installed roadblocks. What made this magical was the narrations by Joy Nash and Jack Bellows. They are so charming the way they spoke, it really added to the story and the characters. My only minor comment is that there’s no need to spend so long on the sex scenes. We get the picture. The really sexy stuff is the flirting. I did thoroughly enjoy this audiobook.

Charming, funny, lovely
