About this listen
Four years ago, my buddy's dying words to me were to watch out for his little sister.
I did what he asked from afar, and when she graduated and got a job teaching kindergarten, I asked her to "housesit" for me since I'm hardly ever home when I'm working on the oil rig.
But now I'm injured and have to recuperate at home, and my extra-curvy housesitter is anything but safe from me.
She's the homebody type. She'll make some man an excellent wife someday, be a good mother. She likes taking care of people. It would be wrong AF to take her the way I want to, but it would feel so right.
When she comes to me for advice about how to get a boyfriend and how to keep him, I'm done playing her silent guardian.
I'll teach her everything she needs to know about pleasing a man - me.
She says all she's ever really wanted to do was be a mama. And now I can't stop thinking of putting my baby in her belly.
Author's Confession: This story is trope soup and I loved every minute of writing it. Don't believe me? Older man/younger woman. First time. Roommates. Older brother's best friend. BBW heroine. Alpha real man hero. Guardian/ward. Breeding romance. Insta-lust. Heck, if I'd have given one of them amnesia, we'd have a serious drinking game!

Drilled is a best friend's younger sister/older brother's best friend contemporary romance. There were several other troupes thrown in but that was the biggest one for me. It was a quick listen where the leading man promised his best friend before his death that he'd look out for his little sister. Our leading man does that from afar going so far as to ask her to house sit since he is often out working on an oil rig essentially giving her a free place to live when she graduates college. But when he sees her again now that she's all grown up they both find it hard to fight the attraction. And when she asks him for help getting and keeping a man like him, things will never be the same.
This book being so short kind of hindered some of my getting to know the characters better. I knew the important facts about them, but didn't really get to make that emotional connection I like. However, the writing was pretty solid and it held my attention.
The author and narrator were both new to me. I thought the narrator Candace Childs did a really good job. She had a nice overall voice and good distinction between the leading characters. When there is a male and female POV I always prefer dual or duet narration, but she still had a really good voice. As for the author Brill Harper, I would be interested in checking out more from her, preferably something a bit longer.

Candace Childs does a good job with this. Her Rebecca voice is a little too young sounding but overall I enjoyed listening.
I received a code to listen and review. It’s a strong 3 stars for me.
