About this listen
I hate Ripley Brewer.
So, why am I cuddling on his lap, peering into his ocean-blue eyes while cameras record our every move?
My best friend needs my help to save her career, and I would do anything for her. Besides, filming a reality show sounds fun … until Ripley shows up to play the role of my fake boyfriend.
As always, we nearly come to blows within minutes of seeing each other. The playboy billionaire accuses me of a setup, but I insist I’d rather live in a world without carbs than spend a minute with him.
At some point during the melee, we sign contracts. I can’t stand the look of his six feet two inches of chiseled abs and broad shoulders. And I loathe his arrogance. But now that he’s my pretend beau, I’m stuck acting like I’m falling in love with my biggest enemy.
It turns out that Ripley’s a good actor, too. Every soft touch on the small of my back makes my heart thump faster. His sultry smirk feels like it’s only for me. I should detest every word that passes his kissable lips.
Is this all a ruse, or does Ripley want to end this episode of The Invitation going from enemies to lovers? Because now? I’m not convinced I can despise him anymore.

Story
Logan Murphy should come with a warning. He’s as hot as a Carolina Reaper on black asphalt in the middle of July. With perfectly messy dark hair and smoldering blue eyes—and don’t even get me started on the way that black tee stretches across his toned chest… He’s my brother’s best friend. He’s also a football star on track to win the first wide-receiver MVP in league history. Good thing I only date golfers… or I did.

If Renn Brewer would’ve asked me to marry him, I would’ve said no. Why? One, his reputation precedes him. His name is in the headlines at least once a month. Two, he’s not just my brother’s best friend. They’re teammates. And three, I’m in my self-care era. Unfortunately, a version of me equates self-care with bad choices.

Story
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.

A marriage proposal from a deliciously handsome and wickedly charming prince sounds like a fairytale. But for a nerdy scientist with severe social anxiety, it's a horror story. Prince Torin O'Grady, with his mischievous blue eyes and cocky grin, is always in the spotlight. And he needs to marry me to inherit the crown. But we have nothing in common. He's a future king. And I'm perfectly happy slogging through mud in my work boots. So why can't I stop thinking about him?

There are two things I can’t get out of my head. My completely inappropriate feelings for my stupidly hot best friend, Keegan, and a vacuum. Right now, the vacuum is taking the front seat. It’s the key for landing a major client—and the only way I’ll finally prove that I’ve been the creative mastermind behind my ad team’s success. Nothing—not even my embarrassing stutter—is going to get in my way. Putting myself in the team’s spotlight also puts me on my ridiculously hot CEO’s radar.

Story
Falling in love is easy. Falling out of love is the hardest thing in the world. And Elin and Ty Whitt are terrible at it. The first time the local basketball star smiled at Elin, she was a goner. It was just so damn easy to fall for the dark-haired hometown hero with his charming smile and strong, athletic build. Thousands of sleepy smiles, aimless drives down country roads, and squeaks of the backdoor after a swing shift later, reality hits. And it hits hard.

I came to Finn River to get away from trouble. But it found me–in the form of a forbidden kiss. After a narrow escape from Alaska and months on the run, I take a security gig that doesn’t ask any questions about my past. But it didn’t take long before trouble came knocking—first, a dangerous rescue, second, sharing my secrets with the one girl I shouldn't trust. I need to stay away from Sofie Whittaker. Not only are we from different worlds, with two very different futures, being with her puts us both at risk.

Story
He's a city boy. I'm a country girl. He's experienced, and I'm well, not. Some days it feels like I'm the last virgin left in the world. We shouldn't mix. So why do I feel like I've found the one person to finally give it up to? Finding the right guy isn't easy. Especially when you know everyone and their history in your small town. I've all but given up on the one when I crash-in the worst possible way—into the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes on. He's a writer without a story, looking for inspiration. And might just be what I'm looking for.

Enemies to Fake Dating to... Yes Please!!!
3rd in sequence but part of a larger shared universe. It totally stands alone with references to other stories but if you haven't read them, you won't be completely lost.
Ripley and Georgia were a lot of fun to see fall in love. There was so much hate and fire in their banter and bickering that when the switch flipped into fake dating mode I was extra excited to see how it would play out. When they finally realized they had no reason to hate each other and things get heated for a whole other reason, it's perfectly satisfying.
However, it's never that easy and both of these characters have weaknesses and issues that come to a head in the 3rd act. I was so emotional when these two were separated. And even more emotional when they resolve the issues and get back together.
The audiobook was performed by Lexi Maynard and Jason Clarke. I loved listening to them. Lexi is new to me and I would totally add more of her into my rotation. Her expression as Georgia was so tangible. The rage and animosity, the desire and internal conflict, the hurt and desperation. And then there is Jason. It's no secret that I love his voice, having him as Ripley was such a delight. The way this man can bring the feels to the surface with all of Ripley's self worth issues and history with Georgia. I would totally listen to this one multiple times over.
I requested and was provided with an advance copy of the audiobook. These are my honest opinions.

Loved this enemies to lovers
I really enjoyed this next installment to the Brewer Family series. The story was wonderfully narrated by Jason Clarke and Lexi Maynard. Jason Clarke is a longtime favorite, but this was my first audio with Lexi Maynard. I thought she did a good job with the feelings and emotions of Georgia to life. Jason Clarke is always remarkable with his story telling. He does such an amazing job with all of the emotions with the perfect inflections.
Georgia has hated Ripley Brewer since they were in high school, and he made a fool out of her. She has harbored that anger and hurt for a very long time. In turn, Ripley has always showed that he has a strong dislike for Georgia as well. So when these two are thrown together to work on the pilot for a show, Georgia is none too happy about that. Eventually she agrees to just get the job done and move on with her life.
However, everything changes when these two are stuck in a cabin to wait out a storm. Confessions are made and hatchets are buried when they finally have the talk that they should have had years ago. They realize that there are much deeper feelings there than they realized. I always love the moment when enemies turn to lovers in the story and this one was perfectly done.
This was a really enjoyable enemies to lover's romance and I can't wait for more from the Brewer family.

"If you keep his mouth shut, he's a 10" - Georgia Hayes
The Invitation is book #3 in The Brewer Family series. Ripley Brewer is cocky, fit, and owes a family friend a favor. Georgia Hayes is trying to figure out her life, end her unemployment, and doing a favor for her best friend Sutton. These two are oil and water, always bickering with each other, and enemies since an "incident" at the high school prom. Foreplay? I say yes. When fate brings these two together on a reality dating show, they must pretend to be strangers and falling in love. This story was gold! We still have the ongoing issue with the trouble the Brewer family is facing with their father's deception and incarceration as well as Georgia's issues with her family. I love this series, and this story is another winner.
The dual narration was fabulous. Jason Clarke and Lexi Maynard really gave us the enemies to lovers characters of Ripley and Georgia to perfection. All the passion, the heat, and emotion score this duo 5/5 soulmate stars!

Enemies to lovers
Lexi Maynard and Jason Clarke’s incredible narration brought Georgia and Ripley’s complicated enemies to lovers story to life. I enjoyed the snarky banter and undeniable chemistry, but I think it was Waffles that stole the show.

Quite a story!
This a quite a story that at times I loved and others are just okay. The story flowed nicely and has some fun times and a little more serious ones. I don’t feel it is as good as the last two but still is a good one. It was nice to see Mimi during the epilogue.
The two MC have intense feelings for each other that goes back years. When forced to work with each other sparks fly and a fire ignites. My favorite is the banter that goes back and forth between them on the hike. Their inner thoughts as well as the ones spoken and their actions made me laugh out loud.
I listened to this on audio. Narration is done by Lexi Maynard and Jason Clarke. I really struggled with Lexi Maynard male voice for Ripley. He sounded nasally, condescending and snooty which did not describe the male. When the female character said Ripley said her name sexy it was tough because I could not imagine it with his voice. Ms. Maynard does wonderful with the female voice. Jason Clark had that sexy male voice on his chapters and did wonderful with the female voices too.

A fun read!
I have recently fallen head over heels in love with audiobooks and this one bringing so much extra to their story. I loved how the banter between the characters came even more to life through the audio.
Dating show with someone you despise
Enemies to Lovers
Fake Relationship
One Bed
Billionaire
Forbidden
Book three in the Brewer Brothers Series but can be read as a standalone.
This was such a fun read. A true enemies to lovers. Their dislike for each other was so clear from the beginning and I loved finding out exactly why as I got further into the book. Their banter was top notch. The burn was slow but worth it.
Georgia and Ripley have always been enemies. Forced together time and time again by mutual friends just fuels their hatred. When Georgia does her friend a favor stepping in as the female lead for a new dating show no one is more shocked to find out her male counterpart is the one and only Ripley. Now forced to play nice their relationship changes causing more trouble for the people around them.
This was such a fun read and I can’t wait to see what’s next.

Loved the narrators and the writing!
I absolutely love this series. Every time I listen to a Brewer family story I think this one is my favorite. Then Adriana writes another one. This one was an enemies to lovers (my fav) and the banter and conflict in the story were right on target keeping me devouring this audiobook from beginning to end. I hid from my family just to finish this one.
Georgia is a bit on the struggle bus. She's lost her job. In general, her mom is pretty selfish, but she's the only family Georgia has. The one person in this world Georgia dislikes is Ripley Brewer. Georgia is asked to film a pilot for a reality show. She doesn't have a job, so this will bring in some money. However, when she shows up Ripley is the guy she'll date in the show. I loved watching these two fake date and in the process they found their relationship growing and developing.
This one had such fun humor, character growth and even great emotion. I highly recommend this series. The Brewer Family is a lot of fun.
Let's talk about the narrators. Jason Clarke and Lexi Maynard. They were both amazing in this book. Jason's deep voice is perfect for Ripley. I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

Something is afoot 💜
The Invitation by Adriana Locke is a fun mix of enemies-to-lovers, fake dating, and family. The banter between Ripley and Georgia is super entertaining😂—they even argue about the weather😜🤭
The fake dating setup, especially with the reality TV show twist, had me hooked from the start…I was wondering how Addy would get them together😬. The confessionals brings out some genuine moments that help reset their past and shift their relationship in a new direction.
If you’re into rom-coms with a bit of tension and humor, awesome family and the good guy gets the girl—this one is definitely worth a read!
Bonus…we got a Lincoln Landry & MiMi sighting💕
💜Fave quotes🍑
I might have been wrong to focus on the inconvenience of this setup. Because this? This might just be a heck of a lot of fun. Georgia Hayes is going down. I chuckle. Better keep that visual out of my head.——I love how they each wanted to best each other
“Yes. Absolutely. I’m really looking forward to seeing her again. Sometimes you just click with someone on a different level, and Georgia and I were definitely clicking tonight.” I grin, trying to hide it from the camera. We always click. It’s just usually more like the click of a gun than the click of a connection.—-😂😂😂
Tate leans toward Gannon and points at me. “See that little grin? That c0cky wobble? That means f%^*y is afoot.”—-it’s the “afoot” for me 😂😂😂

Ripley & Georgia
Ripley and Georgia hate each other. They have since high school, and all through the years since, even though they share a friend group and now their respective best friends are getting married. The best man & maiden of honor, so of course. Both unknowingly sign up to do a dating reality show together which there is a lot of forced proximity. The banter is so good & just overall a great story to read and listen to!
