About this listen
The Pretender is an enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy about the boy next door and the girl who did the unthinkable to win his affection. Previously published as Subscriber Wars by Kristy Marie.
Secrets. Lies. Betrayal. Mine and Sebastian’s relationship wasn’t built on the foundation of trust. It was built over war. A ruthless war that exposed who we really were.
Enemies. Imposters. And Lovers. Sebastian and I would never be friends—not after what we did. But we could pretend—especially for the million-dollar prize—in a cutthroat film competition that would set our careers in motion.
We needed this win to fix our reputations. But that’s not what happened. They say money ruins relationships. I disagree. Love is the ultimate destroyer. Love ruined us. Love made us pretenders.

Story
What happens when you strike a deal with baseball's most talented pitcher? You slip a plastic ring on his finger and say, "I do." Quirky meets broody in this laugh-out-loud, romantic comedy from best-selling author, Kristy Marie. The tattoo down his forearm reads: My power is perfected in weakness. It inspires bad decisions in everyone who crosses his path. Not me though, I’ve made worse decisions before breakfast. Marrying baseball phenom Cooper Lexington for his health insurance...doesn’t even rank top five.

Story
A brilliant surgeon. A master sculptor. The media touted Dr. Potter as a savior dressed in a crisp suit. I think he’s a vicious madman of jerk-sized proportions. But fate is a wicked tease. Only Dr. Potter can give me what I need. A fresh start. A new identity. But he refused, leaving me to take matters into my own hands by accepting a job as his partner’s new secretary. Dr. Potter can’t turn down my case forever. Or at least I thought so until I uncovered Dr. Potter’s secret. A secret, which came with a venomous warning...one that destroyed everything.

It’s official. I, Ainsley James, am crazy. Desperate and crazy. It’s the only explanation as to why I’m nauseous, standing outside Maverick Lexington’s door. I mean, it’s possible the stories about his deck of playing cards - with the letters IOU scrawled across the back - are just rumors of the ruthless quid pro quo deals he barters. But the flutters in my stomach know better. Maverick is as cold as they come. But, I need one of those cards. I need to owe Maverick Lexington a favor....

No kissing. No cuddling. No blah, blah, blah. He wrote the rules onto our skin - every ink stroke tragically smeared by the lines we’d crossed. He claimed it was the only way we could be together - the only way we wouldn’t destroy our families. But there was an exception to his rules - one he never saw coming. All I needed was opportunity and a sunburn. The girl who played by his rules is gone. This girl...is not his “friend”.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Story
The first time I met Winter Marks, I almost took her out with my Jeep. To be fair, she came out of nowhere. I flirted with her, and she flipped me off and disappeared into the woods on her bike. But she left me a souvenir: a single hockey skate. Seemed to me that divine intervention shouldn’t be ignored. She was my icy Cinderella, and I would be her Prince Not-So-Charming. Winter was more than just a sassy, badass hockey-playing hottie. She’s stuck in a prison of a life. And I’m the perfect escape. Neither of us expected to fall. Or for the truth to shatter us.

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.

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

As a divorced single father, I live by three rules: Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No matter what, keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum, and turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life. When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: Don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny. But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

Story
I knew him only as Van Gogh. A tortured artist who owned the night as he moved through the shadows, cloaked in hate and madness. He was a vicious vigilante—a serial arsonist who thrived on the fear he triggered with a single match between his tattooed knuckles. We were told to lock our doors and stay inside. I wanted to. I really did. But then I saw his eyes, burning like embers as he watched me through the smoke. And like the flames at his feet, I delighted in his attention. I became his muse. His passion. His obsession. His perfectly flawed flower. But that was years ago.

Lola Quinn: the brilliant, fiery engineer who could turn my luck around. Too bad she hates my guts. Five years ago, I walked away from her, leaving a trail of heartbreak and regret. Now, I'm back with an offer she can't refuse... if I can convince her to forget the past and take one last chance on me.

Story
I knew him only as Van Gogh. A tortured artist who owned the night as he moved through the shadows, cloaked in hate and madness. He was a vicious vigilante—a serial arsonist who thrived on the fear he triggered with a single match between his tattooed knuckles. We were told to lock our doors and stay inside. I wanted to. I really did. But then I saw his eyes, burning like embers as he watched me through the smoke. And like the flames at his feet, I delighted in his attention. I became his muse. His passion. His obsession. His perfectly flawed flower. But that was years ago.

Valentina and Sebastian are sworn enemies in the influencer world. Both are competing for the likes and clicks and to win the MyView competition and also against each other. But when Sebastian realizes that they are better together to win, he convinces Valentina to be his fake girlfriend.
Oh my gosh, these two are so witty and I loved reading their story. The banter was top notch and had me cracking up. They were truly enemies and seeing them give into the attraction they felt for each other had me turning the pages to see what would happen. They have a history and some secrets that they shared and that just added to the tension. Their prank war that started it all was the cherry on top. And Valentina is the daughter of my favorite from the “Commander in Briefs” series, Timaeus Lambros. I’m so glad we’re getting the stories of the kids from the series.
Connor Crais and Heather Firth were just perfect as Sebastian and Valentina. Connor is great as a grumpy guy and Heather did a great job bringing Valentina’s fiery spirit alive.
Banter filled delight!

This is a perfect enemies to lovers, fake relationship, RomCom! I love revisiting all the characters from IOU & Rebellious. It’s such a great cast of friends. This book is full of laughs & steam & hilarious pranks, but the heart of it is watching their true feelings unfold.
Kristy Marie is a 1-click author for me. Every single one of her books are rereads for me. I love them all.
Hilarious, Swoony & Charming!

Having listened to both Heather Firth and Connor Crais before, i was so excited when i found out these two were narrating The Pretender! These two and their voices brought me back into this story in such an awesome way. These two were so great with their narration as Valentina and Sebastian! From the entertaining moments to the so many feels, both Heather and Connor captured it all!

#thepretender (previously subscriber wars) by @authorkristymarie is one you don’t want to miss.
Valentina and Sebastian have a war going on. They both do viral videos and are relatively internet famous, even more so when they prank each other. So when an opportunity comes up for a hefty lump of cash, they do whatever it takes to win. Including fake a relationship. What can go wrong when you pretend to be in love with your enemy to win a competition? The stakes are high but their determination is higher. All is fair in love and viral videos.
@connorcrais and @heatherfirthnarrator did a great job narrating this book. They were able to really show the emotions or love, hate, frustration, anger and lust out of these two characters. I loved reading it initially and especially enjoyed listening to it. If you love the crazy group that Kristy has created you won’t be disappointed.
This is war

This is a New Adult story, which isn’t my usual preference, having graduated decades ago. However, I recently discovered this author, and wanted to give this audiobook a try. As the story begins, the protagonists are in college. Listeners aren’t exactly sure what has happened, but they know that both Valentina (V) and Sebastian (Bash) used to be good friends, but aren’t any longer. In fact, by employing this clever method of telling this story, Kristy Marie ensures that listeners don’t actually discover what happens to destroy their friendship until the very end of the story. Under normal circumstances, this might be an unsuccessful ploy. In this instance, it works beautifully. Readers are compelled from start-to-finish wondering ‘what happened?’
V and Bash are working together in forced proximity in an attempt to win a $1 million filmmaking contest. Bash wants his half so he can leave school and move to CA and start his career in film. The story alternates between the day-to-day activities of this ‘couple’ as the explore their friendship and relationship, and an interview with these two contestants as they tell their about fake ‘love story.’ Listeners may not fully appreciate the brilliance of this particular storytelling strategy until after they have finished the entire story. Nevertheless, Kristy Marie is an impressive author.
Heather Firth and Connor Crais bring this story to life. They make it easy to follow the actions of each minor and major character, and they do a fine job of distinguishing the characters from each other with their individual portrayals. The production quality is excellent, and there aren’t any unexpected mouth noises or background noises to intrude upon the storytelling.
Very creative storytelling!!
