I loved this one! Harper’s exes (fiancé & friend) can kick rocks😒, but thankfully, Ares was right there to make things considerably more interesting. He’s broody, a little guarded, and has that whole sexy older-man thing going on🥵. Watching these two navigate their “relationship”while catching actual feelings was perfection.
Desireé Ketchum and Jason Clarke were fantastic together. They brought Harper and Ares to life, and I loved the emotion, chemistry, and little moments that made this audiobook so enjoyable.🥰
Can’t forget about that bonus scene 👀 I love Clyde’s little catch up’s with Ginny 🥹 they are so sweet & he is a hoot. Can’t wait to see what he’s planning next 😆
Another fun listen that left me wanting more of Infinity Ridge! 💜
Sierra Simone warned us that Baby Bell would be dark, but I found Ry to be exactly the right amount of light to let Birdie shine.
What I loved most was the beautiful parallel between Birdie and Aiden. Their journeys mirrored each other in so many ways, even down to the drowning hills. They were both lost to life in their own way until they were saved by the person they’d least expect. That symmetry gave the story so much emotional weight.
The sunflower imagery was one of my favorite threads throughout the book. Just as sunflowers turn toward the sun, Birdie slowly turned toward Ry’s warmth, attention, and unwavering focus. Watching her grow because someone finally saw her was beautiful.
The light and dark imagery was woven through every page. The contrast between the devout and the profane, salvation and temptation, was mesmerizing. The crucifix scene was all-encompassing. Ry is Birdie’s savior and her devil, and somehow Sierra Simone makes those two truths exist in perfect harmony.
Then there were the lines that completely wrecked me:
“I didn’t mind making myself your worst thing. I never will. I only hoped I could slowly convince you that I could be your best thing too.”
“She is the beginning of everything good, the start, my genesis. My Eden.”
For someone everyone claimed didn’t have a heart, Baby Bell proved the exact opposite. His heart wasn’t missing. It was simply too big. Too fierce. Too willing to carry the weight of loving someone completely.
Dark, symbolic, emotional, and beautifully written, Devil was everything I hoped it would be.
Ohmigosh ohmigosh OHMIGOSH! Kate Stewart did it again. She played with my heart and made me fall hard for Easton MF Crowne all over again. 💗 Magic powder and all, he is still absolute perfection.
Easton and Natalie may have inherited a little recklessness from their parents, but they also inherited their capacity to love with their whole hearts. Their story is heartbreaking, beautiful, chaotic, and unforgettable. Watching the children of Stella, Reid, Nate, and Addie find their own way felt so special, especially knowing everything their parents went through to get their happily ever after.
Revisiting this story in the new edition was such a treat. After all the drama, angst, and emotional rollercoaster these characters have lived through, I loved getting to spend some lighter moments with them in the Bonus Tracks. I found myself giggling more than once, and their news absolutely made my heart happy. 🥹💕
Favorite quote: Ummm…the entire freaking book. Seriously. From the close bonds East and Natalie share with their parents to the whirlwind journey that brings them together, this story is a nonstop ride of all the feels and a reminder of why Easton MF Crowne will always be one of my favorites.
Tristan and Lark come from rival ranch families, so there’s plenty of tension, history, and drama, but underneath it all is a really sweet story about healing and finding love again. 🤠❤️
Tristan is a widowed single dad, and I absolutely loved watching him and Lark slowly tear down the walls {or fences😬} between them. Sadie completely stole the show for me though. Her relationship with Tristan added so much heart to the story.
Connor Crais and Vanessa Vasquez were fantastic in the audiobook. They brought all the emotion, chemistry, and family drama to life.
If you love small-town romance, family feuds, single dad heroes, and a slow-burn love story, definitely give this one a listen. 🎧🐎💕
Across the Vanishing Sky pulled me straight into the heart of Starlight Grove and never loosened its grip. Dex Archer is the ultimate broody protector, a man carved from shadows and silence, and watching him slowly open himself to Brae and her son was everything. Brae’s determination to uncover the truth about her missing friend added this constant undercurrent of tension that kept me glued to my headphones. And the twists… WOW. Just when I thought I knew who to trust, the story flipped everything upside down. It’s always the nice ones, and that realization hit like a lightning strike. Dex and Brae’s HEA felt hard-won and completely satisfying, and I am already emotionally invested in every single Archer brother.
The narration elevated this story to another level entirely. Samantha Brentmoor gave Brae so much heart and vulnerability, while Jason Clarke, Connor Crais, Sebastian York, Teddy Hamilton, and Adam Gold brought the Archer brothers to life with distinct depth and intensity. Every voice fit perfectly, making the emotional moments hit harder and the suspense feel razor sharp. This audiobook wasn’t just a listen, it was an experience. I’m officially obsessed with this series, and based on what we’ve seen so far, I have a feeling Orion’s story is going to absolutely destroy me…hopefully in the best way. 🥺🎧✨
Lauren Blakely delivers swoon after swoon in Just Breaking the Rules! 🏒💖 Mabel and Corbin’s story is exactly the kind of sweet, slow-burn romance that makes you melt.
Corbin is the ultimate mix of hockey-star heat and devoted single dad—bossy, possessive, and impossible to resist—while Mabel’s drive to prove herself makes her endlessly relatable. Their chemistry is electric, from braiding hair in the kitchen to testing recipes that feel like foreplay, every moment had me rooting for them. And let’s be honest—Afternoon Delight has never tasted sweeter than when these two are mixing business with pleasure! 🍰💘
The audiobook narration by THE Teddy Hamilton and Ms. Samantha Brentmoor is pitch-perfect. Teddy’s Corbin is playful, protective, and swoony, and Samantha’s Mabel is warm, spunky, and full of heart. Together, they bring the story to life in a way that makes you feel like you’re right there in the bakery with them.
If you love brother’s-best-friend, single dad, workplace, and hockey romance tropes—plus the tension of “don’t mix business with pleasure”—this one will hit every sweet spot. Full of heart, humor, and heat, Just Breaking the Rules is a delicious escape you won’t want to put down.
This was such a unique listen, and honestly, a huge part of why I loved it was the music. I loved this time in music so much, and I could absolutely sing along with every song that made Roderick and Kit’s late-night top fives. The mixtapes, the lyrics, the shared memories—it all made the story feel deeply personal.
(Not So) Simple Lyrics unfolds quietly and intimately, almost like reading someone’s private journal or being a voyeur to Roderick and Kit falling in love through their most honest, vulnerable thoughts. It isn’t flashy or rushed—this is a super slow burn, and that pacing makes every emotion feel earned.
Roderick Wilder was Kit’s first love and first heartbreak—the boy who made the one mistake she could never forgive. Twelve years later, Roderick returns not as the rising star he once dreamed of becoming, but as a broken, scarred man desperate for redemption. The epistolary elements—late-night messages, anonymous confessions, and shared lyrics—are where this story truly shines. Music becomes the bridge between who they were and who they’re trying to be.
There’s something especially poignant about a love story that understands timing. As the book so beautifully says, “we weren’t broken, just interrupted.” And it leaves you wondering—what if love isn’t something that ends, but something that waits?
Like the best songs from the 80s and 90s, this audiobook lingers long after it’s over—familiar, emotional, and still knowing exactly how to reach you. 🎶💙
My Brother’s Enemy by Tijan was already everything I love about her writing—raw, emotional, and impossible to put down—but the audiobook took it to another level. 🎙️💥
Rain and Tyler’s story isn’t just about forbidden love or hockey rivalries 🏒🔥 (though it absolutely delivers on both). It’s about surviving deep, life-altering pain and finding peace on the other side. Tijan handles heavy topics with such care and honesty—it broke my heart more than once 💔, and hearing it performed made the emotional impact even stronger.
Andi Arndt gives Rain so much depth and vulnerability. 🥺✨ You feel every crack in her voice, every hard-earned moment of strength. Rain’s journey hit me hard, but those beautiful life twists—yes, plural—made my heart so incredibly happy 💫💖.
Tor Thom is a perfect Tyler. 🖤 He captures that balance of fierce loyalty and unexpected tenderness so well. His performance makes Tyler linger with you long after the final chapter 📖🎧.
This audiobook is emotional, powerful, and absolutely unforgettable. 💔💫🎧
The last single Fletcher brother has finally fallen—and what a ride it is! Honeymoon Phase delivers all the best-friends-to-lovers magic I could hope for. Luke and Roe’s story is the perfect mix of heart, humor, and a little mountain man heat.
When Roe needs a husband to inherit her family’s lumberyard, Luke steps up with a proposal that’s part fake, part wishful thinking, and one hundred percent swoony. Watching him go from protective best friend to “oh no, I’m actually in love with her” had me grinning the whole way through. Roe’s independence and strength balance Luke’s golden-retriever heart so beautifully—these two were meant to find their forever this way.
The audio was absolute perfection. Teddy Hamilton brings Luke’s charm and devotion to life, while Erin Mallon nails Roe’s grit and vulnerability. Their chemistry crackles through every scene, making this friends-to-lovers slow burn even more irresistible.
It’s bittersweet knowing this is the last single Fletcher brother, but what a perfect way to wrap it up. I’m already counting the days until our favorite matchmaker finds her love🍀
Helena Hunting serves up another hockey romance that’s equal parts heart, heat, and humor—and I could not stop grinning through this one.
Connor Grace—Toronto Terror bad boy, Flip’s sworn nemesis, and king of controlled chaos—just asked the small-town librarian to marry him. Dred (short for Mildred) never saw this plot twist coming, but when it’s to make his grandma happy… well, who can say no to a fake marriage with a man who looks that good in a suit?
It’s supposed to be all for show, but every time Connor calls her his “sweet wife,” we know Dred’s heart is melting right along with ours. And the way he insists on calling her Mildred—because no one else does—ugh, it’s intimate, teasing, and 100% swoon-worthy. Connor might be hockey’s most hated player, but for Dred, he’s all in.
I loved watching these two find their footing, especially when Flip (Dred’s bestie and Connor’s nemesis) finally buries the hatchet. The banter, the feels, the found family vibes—it’s all there. And can we talk about the Babe Brigade?! Those ladies are loyal, fierce, and absolutely hilarious. I want to be honorary member 😍, please and thank you.
🎧 Audiobook Notes: Jason Clarke. Yummy perfection, as always. He definitely had me swooning. Kay Auden—new to me, but such a perfect match for Dred—nails the warmth, wit, and quiet strength of her character. Together, they make Connor & Mildred’s story pop with the kind of chemistry you can feel in your bones.
If you love fake marriages that turn real🔥, grumpy/sunshine energy, found family magic, and a hockey bad boy who only has eyes for his librarian—If You Claim Me is an absolute must.
