About this listen

Love is somewhere near the bottom of Lily Thomas' list of life goals, right next to competitive eating and underwater cave diving. She's spent six years pirouetting and pliéing her way up the ranks of the New York Ballet with her eye on the prize and love in the back seat. But now that Blane Baker - Lily's long time crush - is finally single, she'll throw her rules out the window without thinking twice.

Reality with Blane isn't as epic as the fantasy she imagined, and the truth sends her spinning straight into the arms of the man she never knew she'd always wanted. West Williams has been friends with Lily since the day she moved into their building, and he saved her armoire from a swift, sudden death by staircase. Their friendship has always been easy, the boundaries clearly defined. With neither of them willing to risk their relationship, they've drifted happily through the years as companions, never considering more. That is, until they do. And that realization changes everything.

This is funny with a twist of sexy!

Lily and West could be your college friends only more put together. the supporting characters are deeply drawn as well and leave you wanting more of their stories. I can't wait to hear the next book!

oh what could be a dream

I can say this book kept my attention. I was able to listen to it at work and enjoy listening to it. there was some parts where it was dirty and opening with one was what caught my attention. I think it could've needed more dirty moments but I wish I could find my soul mate through my life just like Lilly.

Friends to lovers , with a twist.

Upscale friends, find themselves in a love they never realized was blooming,by watching each other’s bad hook ups.... their circle of friends just knew it would happen sooner or later and are helpful in getting them together. Kristen does each voice very well and blends the characters seamlessly. This was a whim choice and glad I did... Staci is a good story teller, the rest of the series should be great!

Spectacularly erotic! Sweet, fun, and exciting!

Would you listen to With a Twist again? Why?

So um yeah, the first few lines pull you in just a little bit…right! Any author who starts a romance novel with that kind of passage is wonderfully & spectacularly erotic in my book! You have to listen to see what I mean….!!! No time wasted in this book, you are pulled right in and sucked into the story. The characters are all so tangible and easy to relate to, stunningly developed. I found myself shocked and appalled when bad things happened to them and cheering for them when luck went their way! I adore dance and all things ballet so I treasured all of the precise and detailed passages about this beautiful art!

What was one of the most memorable moments of With a Twist?

That night at the club!

Which character – as performed by Kirsten Leigh – was your favorite?

Ok so we all know how a narrator can make or break an audiobook. Well this narrator was phenomenal! She made each and every character come alive! Her portal of Lilly was superb! I can’t imagine Lilly with any other voice than the one given to her by Kristen! She was Lilly!

One of the best narrations I've heard! Phenomenal!

"May your endings be happy and your habits be bad!"

I freaking LOVED this book!!! West and Lily are phenomenal! The whole Habits group is so amazing that you just want to be included in their group!

Lily Thomas and West Williams have been neighbors and friends for years, always keeping each other in the friends zone due to certain circumstances. When Lily finally decides to take a chance on her high school crush, West takes a notice and it puts things in perspective for him. While things aren't what Lily had hoped for with Blane, she starts to notice more while around West.

Their story is utterly beautiful! I loved the drama, the love, the fun times. West Williams is HOT, with a deep soul, sexy personality, and HELLO-HOT manbun!!!! Lily is a natural beauty, with a ballerina body, and she too has a deep soul to match West's!

An amazing friends to lovers romance that is a MUST read!!!

Absolutely Fantastic

Granted, friends to lovers are my favorite. This story is no exception, I loved it. It’s a slow burn, but really sweet, romantic and satisfying. It’s so well written. Both Lily and West are likable and real, as are the other characters; Rose, Cooper, Patrick and Maggie. They reminded me of Friends. Such a beautiful story.
The narration is wonderful. Kirsten Leigh does all the voices to perfection. It’s a pleasure to listen to her. It is, overall, absolutely fantastic.

Almost perfect

It's a great love storyline, love all the characters. But too much cussing especially the first few chapters. I don't think you need that much cussing just to get the message out that you're angry. Other than that, it's really a good romantic novel.

classic with a twist

Love the Austen series by Ms. Hart! The Audible narration is amazing- full of inflection & emotion- you'll lean into the sound as the characters come to life and tell their story. Will be listening to them all!
