3D brothers for the win

Reviewed: 05-18-21

This was my first Stephanie Brother book when I found and fell in love with her stories and now it's in audio and brought back all those memories. Loved the characters and taboo step-brother romances and Stephanie Brothers does them right. The narrator did a great job bring the story to life. I definately recommend this book

<A great, funny and swoony read

Reviewed: 04-25-21

This is a great series to be reading. I have read a couple of the authors previously and enjoyed their independent books, but having them combine forces is a treat. I'm looking forward to read the rest of the series. Not just because of the authors but because of the characters. Great laughs, swoony men, strong independent women who have made it in a mans world and a crazy neighborhood.

Cameron and Jude have amazing chemistry from the moment they meet. Cameron is a wealthy independent woman running an aerospace company. She is smart, sassy and loves shoes and doesn't need a man or so she thinks. Being a high powered businesswoman puts her in the spotlight, good and bad and in this case bad but she doesn't need backup, right? Her friends have other ideas and enter Jude stage right please and thank you. Yum. Jude. 🔥🔥 A man looking to retire from the spy game but getting drawn back in again. Because whether Cameron likes it or not, she needs him.

This was a great book with many twists. Love the world that was created and look forward to reading the rest of the series. The narrators did a fabulous job with characters.

kindle melting smexy

Reviewed: 09-15-20

A threesome is great way to spend the night. A throple is a great way to spend a life. Bailey, Cooper and Drew were sexy and steamy but their characters were deeper then just sex. They were relatable. Their jobs, real lives and family connections could belong to any reader in real life. While their connection with each other developed so did it's affect on their lives and not everything was roses. This author didn't make their relationship easy, she demonstrated how much work goes into making a happy, healthy relationship succeed. There were sacrifices made by all, a fee bumps along the way and a couple of twists. But a lot of smexy times that are kindle melting hot. Definitely a great read and I can't wait for another book.

This book is comedic gold! And fire. And love. And just everything.

Just when I think Pippa Grant can't get any better she drops another book and I'm left wiping away tears from laughing my arse off. Luca and Henri were amazing characters that I want as friends. Heck, I want all her characters to be in my friends circle. Oh and the animals. Always animals involved in her books and Dogzilla takes the cake, I mean if he was motivated to do so.

Henri loves love, which could explain the number of times she has been engaged. Luca doesn't believe in love or marriage, but is a good man who won't ruin others' happiness, even if he doesn't believe it'll work out for them. Nonna wants wedding bells and is willing to use The Eye to get them or shrink her grandsons junk until he complies. The Firevballs need to keep winning. A mascot finally needs to be named. And a cat needs a shower. What could possibly go wrong with any of this?

It was great getting to see past characters. I loved how the lady fireballs circled and accepted Henri into their group and how supportive Henri was for everyone. The Fireballs are definately a family and it may take Luca a while to realize that but he is always there for all them too. This was an amazing story and a true example that love exists and doesn't need to be cookie cutter to make it work.

Then there is the mascot reveal finally and talk about a curve ball in the best way possible! I need the next book so I can see where this goes because daaaaaang! Pippa Grant you did gooooood!

The narrators did a steeler job with these characters. Henri was a fast talker with a lot to say and a crazy mind to come up with the stuff that came out her mouth and these narrators brought that to life. I can only imagine the bloopers during recording. Luca wasn't a slouch either! The creativity put into these MC is mind boggling and done to perfection by the narrators.

This book and audio will be going in my must repeat file for future rereads or listening again!

Oh cheese and crackers!

Well for starters the narrators are awesome. They did a great job with the duet style reading. Absolutely loved it and wish more authors would do the same thing. They really made the characters come alive.

Gabe and Arden have an interesting first encounter. She has good aim and he happens to love cheese! What better combination? But that moment led to an immediate friendship. Fed up with her love life Arden asks Gabe for help, in th bedroom kinda help 😉😉 She wants to shed her good girl image and unlock her inner vixen! Gabe jumps at the opportunity because he is playing the long game. He wants all of her, he just has to convince her he isn't the playboy she thinks he is, he just hasn't found the one yet, but he wants to. Of course this leading to some serious sex talks, expect detail and candid conversations and of course some missinterpttions that will make you laugh. When things finally boil over, will they be able to go all the way or will miscommunication and a couple hiccups but an end to their friendship? This book was sexy, funny and a great friends to lovers romcom. I love Lauren Landish's writing and can't wait to dive into the next book.

beautiful love story

Reviewed: 09-09-20

This was an amazing book. The narrators were great for these characters and did a brilliant job. What's not to love when a first encounter begins with naked yoga? 😂😂 The book starts in one country where the MCs have their first encounter but of course that didn't go off as planned. Then fast forward to the present, we are in a different country, different circumstances and their paths cross again, only this time things go better. Not wanting serious or having time for serious they agree to be part time lovers. Only their chemistry sizzles, their banter is perfection and extenuating circumstances change things up and part time lovers become a fake married couple 😏 But can it be real instead? Lauren Blakely wrote another amazing romance with great characters, great style and a smashing love story. I'm never disappointed with her books. On to my next one!

Hey pretty girl

This is one of my top 10 books of all time. I read it multiple time and just got the audio and it totally delivered as well. The narrators did a great job with all the characters! Whether they were drunk, historical, angry or flirty, they made these characters come alive.

Marley and Jake had amazing chemistry in high school but had a lot of unknown forces against them. Now, 20 years later, badboy Jake is the dreamy single high school teacher and boys track coach while Marley returns home after being dumped and loosing her job, basically hitting rock bottom. She left her hometown with the expectation of never returning because she couldn't let her high school self and insecurities go. High school is the pits for everyone but Marley was a lot stronger than she thought. Now her only option is to accept a temporary job as the coach for the girls soccer team and gym teacher for the high school!

Don't let appearances fool you because you definately can't judge a book or these characters by their covers. A lot of what happened in high school had lasting affects on Marley and her classmates. But throughout the book truths come out and a lot of growth happens. Fences get mended, people get the chance to heal, chaos and pranks are unleashed (Marley has a devious side) and the chemistry between Marley and Jake explode. Marley always wanted to make a life for herself where she made a difference in others lives, was wanted by others, was important but never saw that happening in her hometown. All she thought she had there was a lot of bad decisions, that people hated her and were always throwing her self proclaimed short coming at her. Only problem is, she was the one throwing those short comings at herself. Underlying themes of this book include bullying, girl empowerment, inclusion, exclusion and loving your self. Many tough subjects were tackled in this book but done beautifully and came from some unexpected places. The chemistry between Marley and Jake was amazing, the interactions between all the characters was fabulous and the story was just perfect. There are pranks, a lot of laughs and some tears but a lot of strength. I highly recommend this book and audio!

second chances never tasted so good

Reviewed: 08-21-20

Greeeeaaat choices in narrators! They did they characters justice. Who doesn't love a man that bakes and talks dirty to his creations? Who can't love a woman who is trying to making sure her mama's dreams come true even after a tragedy hits her? No one, that's who. Anika is strong willed, competitive, hard working and trying to hold on to the last piece of her sanity as she helps her mama and little sister open their bakery. Brady used to be her best friend, her chocolate chip cookie baker, her confidant until he asked her to give up her dreams for him without considering her needs and waiting until the last second to confess this to her. Both hurt, both missing a piece of their heart and both fighting to make their respected bakeries the best, battling each other for the title. Expected a lot of pent up chemistry waiting to boil over, kitchen mishaps, a goat matchmaker, and a lot of feeling as these two stubborn people battle each other, try to protect their hearts and survive a century or two years old town rivalries. l
Loved Anika and Grady's story and the narrators did a great job of these characters!

so much love

Reviewed: 08-21-20

I've yet to be disappointed in a Pippa Grant book and this one didn't fail either. Love the choices of narrators and love this story. Any woman who ever turned West down needs a shift kick in the butt. That man just wanted love and a family to call his own. Daisy has a heart of gold but secretly shares her love to those around her, not wanting credit. They both were in desperate need of someone to see them, someone to need them, and more importantly someone to want them. Talk about chemistry, laughs, unpredictability, love and more love. Little Remy got the best co-guardians in the world and has the best future in front of him. Absolutelyoved this story and was so sad to see it end but so happy with their HEA!

Great choice in narrators! They are a couple of my favorites and Jacob Morgan did a fabulous job with Brooks' drunk scene. Favorites!

I absolutely love Pippa Grant and all her books. She is a one click author for me and I am never disappointed!! Brooks and Mackenzie don't just have chemistry they sizzle from first touch. Both characters are warm, friendly, sexy and crazy, but absolutely perfect for each other. Mackenzie needs someone to believe in her, accept her and all her crazy for the wonderful person she is with no judgment. Brooks needs someone to inspire him and remind him why he plays baseball. Together they are unstoppable but to get there they have to break a curse first and what fun they have doing it.

I love how close Pippa Grant has made all her characters and that we get to see more of them in each book. Some add to the chaos, but all support the main characters and each other. I can't wait for the others to get their books! And let's not forget the animals. Pippa always makes sure to bring them out and proud!

I highly recommend this books, the series, and all things Pippa Grant. If you want to laugh until you cry then she is your author!
