Story
It’s true. I’m not what most people would call “pretty” and, well, high school was rough. Fast forward ten years and life is good, until a bunch of jerks think it’s hilarious to put the “butterface” (AKA me) on a wedding Kiss Cam with the hottest guy ever - and that old humiliation hits hard. I recognize him immediately. The hottest cop in Waterbury and totally out of my league. But then he kisses me. And we totally forget the room, the crowd, everything. Then he tells everyone we’ve been dating for months.

Story
I’m a full-time single dad to three daughters and CFO at Cloverleigh Farms. I don’t have time to fall in love - I’m too busy trying to run a business, keep the red socks out of the white laundry, and get the damn pillowcases on without owing a dollar to the swear jar. Sure, Frannie Sawyer is beautiful and sweet, but she’s 27, the boss’ daughter, and my new part-time nanny - which means she’s completely off-limits. It’s bad enough I can’t stop fantasizing about her. What kind of jerk would I be if I acted on the impulse to kiss her?

"Girls like you aren't exactly welcomed at a place like this, so keep your head down and look the other way." Those were the exact words of my social worker when she dropped me in my newest hellhole, a place for "troubled teens". I didn't listen, and now I'm on their radar. Too bad for them, I don't follow rules. Too bad for me, they're determined to make sure I do. Inconceivably attractive and treated like kings...these are the boys of Brayshaw High.

I can feel it. I wake up in the middle of the night freaked out of my mind, paranoid a stranger is there. My skin prickles every time I leave my house, because I know someone is following me. I’m afraid. Alone. And there’s only one person left to turn to. The stepbrother I never met. He’s the president of a notorious motorcycle club and exactly the kind of person I need to protect me - cutthroat, cocky, dangerous. Little did I know, hot as all holy hell Ky Parish, downright loathes me. You know what they say - there's a fine line between love and hate. And I'm walking it.

I’m not having it! Even if the quarterback only has eyes for me. He's irresistible, too handsome for his own good, cocky, and carrying baggage no one wants.

Summary
I thought I had it all - the perfect life, with the perfect arrangement, with the perfect guy.
To the world, Kevin Peyton is the heartthrob Oscar nominee. To me, he's my best friend, with some sexy benefits.
But then I got a taste of his world. A world where being mobbed by fans, violated by intruders, and stripped of all privacy is the norm. I never realized how brutal being in the spotlight would be.
I didn’t fit into his world. I didn’t fit into his plans. I only wish I’d discovered that before falling in love with him and changing the game plan.
Sometimes changing the game plan changes more than the game. Sometimes it changes your everything.

I really enjoyed Cliche. It was fun and entertaining, and I loved both Kevin and Claire. Their friends to friends-with-benefits to lovers story was sweet and emotional. The storyline with Claire's sister was an added bonus. Erin Mallon is a favorite narrator of mine and, as always, she did a wonderful job bringing this story to life. 🎧AudiobookObsessionReviewer

Emotional
This is a really good story- it is a friends (with benefits) to more story but I have to admit that I felt like that aspect dragged a bit long. Claire didn't want to be in the center of the spotlight but her best friend and love, Kevin, was an A-list actor. So he came up with an idea to pretend to be in a relationship with someone else (that aspect was actually generally low angst though it generated some concerns with Claire). He and she were both hesitant, in fact, at being open with the relationship which led to a bit of drama and angst and as mentioned, it dragged a bit. One thing I have to say though is that to me, the real strength of this story came when Claire was interacting with her sister. The last bit really spoke to me and I loved the way the story resolved with a deeper relationship between the sisters. Overall, an emotional and well done story. Erin Mallon is always great and is one of the best narrators at playing both male and female characters. I wish that the story was done in both a male and female POV so we could have also had a male narrator (and more insight into Kevin's thoughts). 🎧AudiobookObsession, AudioObsessionReviewer

Claire and Kevin has been with each other forever until he goes off and hits it big. He brings Claire into his other life and tries to protect her from the spotlight. They have never put a label to their relationship and when Claire tells him her feelings, everything changes. She does something selfless for her sister and realizes that she can't hide forever. This is a book that takes you on an emotional ride with Claire and Kevin. Good Narration. 🎧 Audiobook Obsession

My Thoughts on Cliché
This was an excellent introduction to this author. It absolutely makes me want more. I loved Claire and Kevin. I loved their friendship and their relationship and just their overall vibe together. I sometimes wished that I could see things from Kevin's POV but this was really well written and there was a lot going on with Claire both when it came to Kevin and outside of her relationship with him. So it worked that things were only told from her view. I loved the Epilogue but kind of felt like the last chapter before that was kind of unnecessary. Overall it was a great story though. And Erin Mallon was great on the narration. If I've got to have a book with only the female POV she is a perfect narrator to really make the most of it. 🎧AudiobookObsession Reviewer

What a way to Debut!
I loved everything about this story. Friends to lovers is only the beginning! Claire and Kevin have been friends forever, but can Claire fit into the life Kevin leads? I loved how Kevin made it work for them. He is able to keep things private so when things heat up, it is just between Claire and Kevin. This was a glimpse into what it would be like to date a star. I completely felt as if I was a part of this story as I got sucked into their world. THis is a fun, romantic and sexy story that is a must read for all romance fans. Erin Mallon's performance is flawless. Her sweet voice brings out the sweetness and innocence to the world of fame that Claire has. I could not imagine a better narrator for Claire. Ms. Mallon has a great male voice as well. She narrated Kevin exactly as I imagined him. Erin Mallon brought this story to life and enhanced its experience.

Cliche
This is the first book I've read by Ryleigh Sloan and I really liked the writing style. I would be interested in reading more by this author. I didn't really connect with the characters though, so I wanted to give the story 3.5 stars. I would recommend Cliche to fans of contemporary romance, especially those with more extended timelines (not love at first sight). I thought Erin Mallon's narration was great. #AudiobookObsession

On the fence with this story
Cliché wasn't my favorite story. The blurb somewhat misled me, as there was a fake-girlfriend factor there too and this element usually doesn't impress me in a storyline. It didn't this time either and from that point on I had a hard time connecting with both the hero and the heroine. Aside from my personal preference the writing itself was technically good I just didn't like quite a few aspects of the story. Claire did a wonderful thing for her sister, that definitely was the best part and stole the limelight. This was the first time I listened to Erin Mallon's narration. Both her tone and the quality of the recording was pretty good. There were two things though I had a hard time with. One of them was her male voice and the other was the unnecessary emphasis on syllables at the end of sentences. The latter was quite disturbing and felt unnatural. 🎧AudiobookObsessionReviewer

Nothing Cliche About this one!
Are you sure this is a debut novel? This well written, entertaining friends with benefits to lovers story is so much fun! Claire and Kevin have been best friends forever, and friends with benefits for years. Kevin, a successful Hollywood actor and Claire running her family business each have their own careers, but when together the sparks fly. Now as feelings change, will their relationship survive? I absolutely loved this story. Kevin is a wonderful man, and even though in the public eye does his best to keep his private life private. Claire is fun, flirty and has all the emotions attached that I would too! They are magic together, and I love the fun banter. The family dynamic between Claire and her sister, Kim is so realistic and their secondary story is beautiful. Sloan has a winning combination of characters and I loved it! Erin Mallon brings their story to life, enhancing it with her talent. She truly can find the personalities of the characters, hone in and make them real with her voices. I loved her performance, as always!

Great Story & Narration🎧 Heartfelt & Steamy🔥
This is my first book by Ryleigh Sloan and I enjoyed everything about it, from her wonderful writing style to the interesting storylines and characters she created. The characters are likable and nicely developed. Claire and Kevin were best friends, turned friends with benefits. They never really discussed their relationship or feelings, it all just happened and they were ok with that. Claire was helping run her family’s business and Kevin was becoming a successful actor he was away often, shooting on location or in Hollywood but they made it work. I loved these two together, it is like they were made for each other and the chemistry between them smoking hot. With Kevin’s success in Hollywood comes more challenges, crazed fans and paparazzi, he wants to protect Claire from it and keep her sheltered. He devises a plan to throw the paparazzi off by fake dating his co-star though Claire is not sure what to think of this. I was rooting for Kevin and Claire, it was heartbreaking to see their relationship unravel. I liked how well plotted this story is, there are some fun and heart warming moments, as well as drama, angst and plenty of hot romance. And it was amazing what Claire did for her sister. Ryleigh Sloan, thank you for this great story and the emotional rollercoaster ride. I am looking forward to checking out more of your work. I listened to the Audible edition, Erin Mallon is a wonderful narrator and voice performer. She brings these characters to life, give each their own distinct sound and personality, making it easy to follow the story and who is who. She does an great job projecting the emotions of the characters as well as the drama of the story into her performance. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another great listen🎧 Thank you 🎧@AudiobookObsession #AudiobookObsession #AudiobookObsessionReviewer🎧

Loved the Hollywood vibe
I received this audio book free for an honest review. This was an awesome story. Loved the sexy Kevin and the sensitive Claire. The romance made me laugh and cry. The twist in the middle was unexpected. The location, being South Africa, is not a typical location. Couldn't turn off this audiobook. The author did an excellent job with this story and keeping the listener's attention. The narrator is one of my favorites. She is fabulous with the voices, their personalities and their character. She enhances every story she narrates.

GOOD.. & A CLICHÉ ROMANCE IT’S NOT
Well Ms Sloan, for a debut novel you certainly exceeded my expectations with this very unusual love story about two successful childhood friends now living in different States who effortlessly move into an easy ‘friends-with-benefits’ relationship whenever they can. However, their worlds are so very different, Kevin’s a heartthrob Actor and Oscar nominee and Claire wants nothing to do with the limelight so keeping it casual is the only option for these two lovers. Until Claire realizes she doesn’t just love him.. she’s fallen IN love with him too - and that’s when this story takes a very different and unique route from the norm to get to the HEA.. but it wasn’t love but lifestyle that derailed this couple for quite a while because the love oozed from the chapters. Now I couldn’t write a pamphlet, a brochure or even a short novella let alone a full bodied four star book.. so well done Rayleigh.. but I can be a picky prune sometimes when it comes to romance so my comments now are why, for me, this was missing a star. I personally would’ve liked more descriptions invoking more colorful mental images.. the sex scenes, although hot n heavy, IMO, lacked something making them a bit more functional than fiery.. and there could’ve been additional emotional scenes after the sister ‘event’ which would’ve expanded the ‘feel good’ family feeling further instead of stopping at the event. However, this well narrated love story DID definitely keep me invested into just how things were going to work out for Claire and Kevin and it kept me listening way into the night. Worth a credit? Erin did a great job as always with narration and yes, I think this is creditworthy.

I love Ryleigh's books!
Ryleigh is a master at creating characters that are real, deep, and that you instantly identify with and fall in love. Cliché is no different. I love the glimpse into Kevin and Claire's relationship and the struggles that even someone like a movie star can have. Erin Mallon delivers a dynamite performance as always. Highly recommend this one! #AudiobookObsessionReviewer
