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
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.

Alison Baker is over love. Relationships are great. But peace? That’s priceless. The only way to get and keep a calm existence is to stay away from men. This is especially true for wealthy, charming, powerful men like her ex-husband. Then she meets Barrett Landry. He looks dapper standing in front of her in a suit, taking a glass of champagne off her serving tray. He pushes but she pulls. He asks questions. She tries desperately not to answer.

Marrying Beckett Coleman is the best idea I've had in years. I can grant my sick dad’s wish to walk one of his daughters down the aisle, and Beckett has my help solving a custody situation with his daughter. Our plan is to spend a year together, then part ways. Easy, especially since I'm not his type, and he's not mine either. He’s too quiet and too serious. And while he’s distractingly gorgeous, he’s also my brother’s teammate. Beckett is fake husband material, not the real deal. I just have to remember that.

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.

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.

If I had known how irrevocably my life was about to change, I would have walked the other way after talking to my coach. I should have taken any other route out of the Toronto Terror head office. But I didn’t and now–everything is different. At first I didn’t recognize the woman doing a victory dance down the hall when she thought no one was watching. Until she turned around. And that beautiful smile was aimed at me.

The job was simple. Always answer the phone—no exceptions—then solve the caller’s catastrophe as efficiently as possible. The rules were simpler. They contact you, not the other way around. Never give them your real name, number, or any personal information not required to help a newly single dad keep his head above water. And never, ever get involved with a caller.

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.

I slept with my trainer. And as it turns out, I’m not the only one. Apparently, he sleeps with all his clients. So I block him—the last thing I need is another a-hole in my life. Especially one as irresistibly charming and handsome as Ashton Vancroft. The catch? Three years later, our best friends, Emma and Marcus, get engaged, and we are both forced to play nice at their destination wedding in Florida. Is he really the self-centered playboy I’ve made him out to be? Or is there something more to this fitness-obsessed now-billionaire that I missed the first time around?

He’s broken her heart more than once and let her down every time she’s needed him.

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.

Jay Stetson is 100 percent hero material with those arms, that chest, and his deliciously oh-so-sexy smirk. The chiseled hunk in flannel has an irresistible off-limits attitude while plucking Gabrielle out of the bushes and saving her from a snake.

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.

"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!

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.

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.

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.

PHENOMENAL
"What do you have in that backpack anyway? You're like a grown up Dora the Explorer" ~ ☠️😂😂😂😂
Once you begin this hilarious, deep and extremely steamy read, you are not going to want to put it down. A Dating show with sworn enemies. I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT. Georgia & Ripley are magnetic and electrifying. A hot hero with a heart of gold and a feisty heroine who never gives up. The perfect blend of intoxicating chemistry, swoon, sass, witty banter, laughs, feels, sparks, lust and SO. MUCH. STEAM. The twists and turns keep you grinning from ear to ear. Lexi Maynard & Jason Clarke do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality. They do more than giving their characters their voices, they fall into the roles and become the character.

Great & Funny Audiobook
I loved Ripley & Georgia's story when I read the book. The narration is done in dual.
Jason Clarke & Lexi Maynard did a wonderful job bringing these characters to life. Riley is arrogant but charming & Jason captured him perfectly. Plus how he can transition to all those voices of the brothers was truly remarkable.
This is the first time I have heard Lexi. I thought she did a fantastic job with Georgia's character. She really got Georgia's feisty personality. Both of them brought the banter and the chemistry between Ripley & Georgia.
I really enjoyed this book. It's was fun and sweet and Adriana gave a great enemies to lovers story.
This is the third book in the Brewer Brothers series. We follow Ripley & Georgia. They have always hated each other. Having mutual friends they were always forced together. Georgia helps out her best friend and stars in a reality dating show. Little does she know her suitor is none other than Ripley.
This was a great enemies to lovers slow burn book.
Adriana did a fantastic job. The banter was a classic enemies to lovers story. I loved how their relationship progress throughout the book. Ripley is a MMC that you just can't help swoon over & Georgia was a feisty FMC that you just loved. I love how Adriana brings the Brewer brothers together and gives us some funny scenes with them.
This was a sweet, fun, and easy to read book. I can't wait to see what comes next.

Jason and Lexi are FIRE Together!
I LOVE THIS SERIES!! You get all the family banter with this story, and Adriana is a master at that. Along with the family banter, you get so much from Ripley and Georgia. This enemies to lovers story will hit with the best of them.
I am not usually a liker of stories that revolve around shows. But this one is great, and the characters are the best.
Ripley and Georgia have the best chemistry and so much banter. But beneath that banter is so much more. I loved seeing Georgia fall for Ripley and his ways. He has this charismatic way about him that even she can't deny.
Ripley is so much sweeter than I thought he was. I adore him and the way he loves his family and friends. But the way he poked and picked at Georgia made me laugh out loud.
When I saw that Jason Clarke was narrating this one, I may have done a happy dance. He captures the persona of Ripley perfectly. Jason has this way about pulling you into a story with his voice.
This was my first time listening to Lexi Maynard, and I am so glad I did. She has such a great voice that you will enjoy. Lexi has a sweetness with some sass for Georgia, and I loved it. She will definitely be on my list to listen to more of her.
This family will make you laugh out loud. I can't wait for more to come!
