5 STARS! A festive, fun holiday romance!

A Perfect Holiday Audiobook
Reviewed: 12-12-24
It's been awhile since I did a multi cast audiobook & My Favorite Holidate did not disappoint.
Wilder is a single dad billionaire & Fable is a designer that works for him. They decide to fake date during the holidays & for Fable sister's wedding.
Samantha Brentmoor & Jason Clarke are Fable & Wilder.
They were brilliant. The chemistry these two have is undeniable. The way they brought Fable & Wilder to life was incredible. They brought the banter, the fun, the vulnerability & oh and the spice. Add Teddy Hamilton, Connor Crais, Andi Arnot, Vanessa Edwin, Andi Eloise, Erin Mallon, Noah B Perez, Shakira Shute, & Ryan West & it was gold. They all fit so well, it really made you feel that you were listening to a real life couple falling in love and having their friends & family be apart of it.
Lauren Blakely is one of my favorite authors. Her writing style is so well done. I love the way she developed their relationship. She wrote the fake dating trope perfectly and gave it just the right amount of slow burn. It moved so effortlessly. I especially loved seeing her characters from her other books. (side note: you don't have to read those books to enjoy this one)
It was such a fun listen and it really hit me in the feels. It made me feel so good that I can't wait to listen to it again.
This is definitely a Christmas book you will need to check out. It will surely get you into the Christmas spirit.

Story
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.

Such a Cute Story
Reviewed: 12-11-24
Amanda Stribling & Grayson Owens are the narrators for Emma Lee Jayne's Head Over Feels. This audiobook is in duet style. Amanda & Grayson really connected to these characters & did a wonderful job bringing these characters to life. This is my first book of Amanda's. She was amazing as Meg. She captured Meg so perfectly.
Especially with Meg having a stutter. Grayson was the perfect Keegan. Keegan is so sweet & charming & Grayson captured him flawlessly. I loved the chemistry between Amanda & Grayson. With this being in a single POV, the duet narration worked perfectly.
I loved Emma's writing. It was a witty, fun, and a cute friends to lovers story. I loved the friendship between the two and she developed their relationship so well. I was really entertained with this audiobook and it was something I didn't know I needed.

What an Incredible Series
Reviewed: 12-10-24
This is the last book in the Parallel series & the epic conclusion to the Across Time duet. Wow what a series. It’s one of my favorite series. First the narration. Done in duet style, Samantha Brentmoor & Shane East deliver a masterpiece with this story. Samantha was perfection. Not just in this book but the series as whole. The way she performed Sara’s conflicting emotions & passion just drew me in. Shane was so captivating as Henri. He brought Henri’s protective side & his emotions and had me enthralled with his narration.
I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth’s writing. The angst, emotions, & heartbreak was so beautifully done. She takes you on a ride full of hope, love, and twist and turns. The way she spins the time traveling is so extraordinary. I have never read anything like it before or after. I thoroughly recommend listening/reading to this whole series. You would be forever changed.

Wonderful Audiobook
Reviewed: 12-07-24
I remember reading this story years ago and it has always stuck with me. The first two audiobooks were amazing.
Now finally getting Across Time on audio has been a dream come true. More importantly to have Samantha Brentmoor back is the icing on the cake. The cherry:
Shane East. The narration is done in duet. Samantha & Shane were absolutely brilliant. The way they brought Amelie & Henri to life was so beautifully done. The French accents, the emotions, I was so caught up with this audiobook. I can't say enough about these two wonderful narrators.
Elizabeth's writing is so wonderful. The way she writes her characters and gives us these beautiful love stories. It's so wonderful to get these in audiobooks. If you love time travel romance, this one is a must have!!!

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.

Great & Funny Audiobook
Reviewed: 12-05-24
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.

I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates. Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now. Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

Great Casting For A Brand New Series
Reviewed: 10-16-24
Kyleigh & Rowan meet at a wedding. She knows him but keeps it a secret cause well, he was her brother's best friend in college. They have one hot night together. They run into each other and decide the chemistry is so hot they decide to have a no strings attached relationship.
This was such a fun read. I loved Kyleigh & Rowan. Kyleigh is dealing not only not telling Rowan who she is but she is dealing with a fallout with her mother. Rowan is so sweet and funny but he also has insecurities from his past with his father. Rayne did an amazing job with the relationship of these two. What started out as just hot sex turned into something more. It low on the angst but the development of these two was so sweet and fun to read and waiting to see how things will unravel when the truth comes out.
Also the secondary characters in the book are so funny and so well written. This is a great first book to a brand new series.
The audiobook was phenomenal. Sean Masters & Erin Mallon were perfect as Rowan & Kyleigh. They brought the humor and the banter and had great chemistry. Add Troy Duran, Teddy Hamilton, Connor Crais, JF Harding & CJ Bloom, this was the perfect casting for this book. They were all amazing as the secondary characters to the book.

Emotional Love Story
Reviewed: 10-16-24
Celeste is pregnant and loses her husband and now her life is forever changed. Lucas was her best friend growing up. He abandons her when she needs him the most & twelve years later he comes back to reopen the summer camp they belong to as kids. Old wounds start to open up. And they wonder if they can move on or stay in the past.
This book put me through the emotional ringer. Halloran's writing was so beautifully written. I loved the journey both Lucas & Celeste go through. The anger & pain and this love they have for each other. And the love they have for Jeremy. Celeste's husband & Lucas' best friend.
The audiobook was truly amazing. It was in dual narration but the flashbacks were done in duet which brought the emotions full force. Samantha Brentmoor & Sean Masters were incredible. The emotions & pain they brought to Celeste & Lucas were beautiful. And Oscar Reyes as Jeremy, had me bawling.
The beautiful writing & the incredible narration, this audiobook will be sticking with me for a long time.

I have a simple plan. Finish Royal Elite School and get into my dream university. One glance from the school’s king blows my plan up in smoke. One glance and he suffocates my air. One glance and he issues his death sentence. His first words spiral my life into irreparable chaos. “I will destroy you.” Everything about Aiden King is black. Black mind. Black heart. Black soul. I should’ve remained quiet and endured the time I have left. I didn’t. I made the irrevocable mistake of provoking the king on his throne.

A Good Start to a series
Reviewed: 09-25-24
I am finally starting Rina Kent's book. After reading Cruel King, I couldn't wait to read Aiden's story. I was pleasantly surprised with the story. There were times I found it long winded and repetitive. Once Elsa started having nightmares and Aiden was starting to show more than being a possessive mmc, the story started to pick up. I like the suspense to the story and the twist at the end. I'm now curious where Elsa & Aiden's story is going to go next.
I found the narration was great. Keira Stevens was great as Elsa. I also loved Shane East but I feel that his voice was old for an 18 year old MMC. That being said I still think he is incredible too and can’t wait to listen to book two.

Sweet story

Well Elizabeth did it again with the fourth book of The Summer Series. This book we get Liam and Emmy's story.
Emmy has been bullied during her childhood. Not only that she gets emotionally abused by her mother. She comes back home to get revenge from the people that hurt her. In walks Liam. They end up working together and of course banter, emotions, and sexual tension come to play. This is one of my favorite enemies to lovers romance book.
I absolutely love Elizabeth's writing. The way she writes these characters. Especially Emmy. I just felt so much for her and what she went through. I never struggled with weight issues but I have someone close to me that did.
Elizabeth did an amazing job writing Emmy's character. I felt like Liam was a perfect MMC and was wonderful with Emmy. Just when I think I have a favorite MMC, Elizabeth gives us Liam. The way he was with Emmy, oh my heart.
This book has everything, the slow burn, workplace, enemies to lovers.
Samantha Brentmoor again does another great performance in this series. I loved her as Emmy. She brought the sass but also her vulnerability. I loved JF Harding. I thought he was great for Liam. Her was the perfect cinnamon roll and their chemistry was perfect.

I tore out of rehab to win my husband back. It’ll work, too. He just needs to see that I’m clean, that I’m on my feet again. Until that happens, though, I’ve only got one guy in my corner—Beck, my husband’s best friend, who takes me in against his will and keeps me sane. Living with Beck is easier than I expected. And fun. Except I’ve got a long history of wanting things I’m not supposed to want.

Well Elizabeth did it again. This is the third book in the summer series (side note: read the second book before this. It explains about the characters you will read in this one)
I absolutely loved this book. It gave me all what I wanted.
The emotions the angst (my kryptonite)
I have a feeling people might not like Kate. Yes she was annoying conniving but I get it. With the things she went through how could she not. I don't want to spoil anything but l understand you have to go through a lot to get what you deserve.
Oh and Beck!! I'm telling you Elizabeth can write a MMC.
He was so honest, loving & understanding but also didn't put up with Kate's shenanigans.
I loved the relationship between Beck & Kate. The tension, the passion. It all just adds up to a great couple you want to root for!!
This book became my favorite of the three.
Samantha Brentmoor has been amazing in this series and I she didn’t disappoint as Kate. Connor Crais was incredible as Beck. The chemistry they had showed and they were amazing.
