About this listen

I have a confession.

I hate bachelorette parties.
A night of awkward dancing, penis-shaped straws and being told “you're next, Kaitlyn!”
Even worse: It's hosted at a super swanky Miami club where I stick out like a sore thumb.
Couldn’t get any worse, right?

Enter Mr. Tall, Dark and I-didn’t-know-they-made-people-this-gorgeous.
Grump supreme. His scowl has a scowl.
Especially after I knock a drink onto a VIP and myself.
He must be the manager of the club because he has keys to the penthouse above it.
A penthouse he offers to let me change clothes in.
A penthouse we screw all over.
Then, he gets a call and kicks me out. Jerk.
Told you it got worse.

Ready for worser?
First day at my new job as a nanny and Mr. Grump is my boss.
James Morris.
Billionaire club owner, deal maker, and first grade bosshole—if the tabloids are to be believed.
Also a single dad to an adorable daughter who needs my help.

But there's no way I can take this job—every time I look at him, I’m back in that penthouse.
And from the way his jaw clenches when he looks at me, he’s thinking the same.
Then he tells me why this has to work. Why he needs me. Why I can’t say no.

New confession?
I hate my boss.

The dual narration by Lexi Evans and Logan Anare is the absolute best format ever and I wish that all dual narration would be done in this manner. The performance/production alone encourages you to keep listening to the audiobook!
WHY?: Quite simply, they don’t just alternate between chapters. She does all of the narrative for her character (even if it’s within his chapter) and he does all of the narrative for his character. Additionally; she voices all of the female characters and he voices all of the male characters - it’s superb! THIS is how it should be done! You get a far superior and enjoyable listening experience. 10 Stars for that alone!

The story was interesting and detailed. The characters, interesting and you get to see the depth of each of them. The plot is cute and complicated, there’s a lot of misdirection, miscommunication and just plain devious. Harper, the daughter of Mr Grump (James), is the star of this novel and she’s beautifully portrayed by Lexi Evans! Kaitlyn, whilst great at her job (with children) is, quite frankly, rubbish with adults - even her own sister!

I guessed a few plot points, but not because they were glaringly obvious, just my suspicious nature. This is book 1 in the series. Book 2 is also in the Plus Catalogue, currently - Mr Jerk - so I’m definitely going to get it! This has been a wonderful listening experience for me. I hope that it’s the future of dual narration!

I hope that this is the future of dual narration!

A fantastic audiobook.
I loved listening to it the Narration by Logan Anare and Lex Evans is brilliant,they really out do them selves the emotions they project through their voices is incredible.
When Logan gets angry as James I think I jumped out of my skin it was so realistic..lol..
Both narators are superb.
Mr Grump by Leslie North is book 1 in this series and can be read as a stand alone.
James is a Billionaire and single dad to an adorable little girl Harper...But Harper is suffering from her mental health after a trauma she went through.
Kaitlyn is a child psychologist/Nanny and she is James's new employee to help his daughter....The problem with this senario is that they have met before...At Kaitlyn's sister Cassies bacherlorette party and they ended up spending a passionate night together.
So it is a total shock for them both when they now have to work professionally together to help Harper heal.
But James's family is very complicated and there are alot of problems with disgruntled grandparents and a troubled sister..It is more than Kaitlyn bargains for but she takes everything in her stride and falls in love with Harper and James too.
But James is so protective of his family,as his every move seems to be watched by the tabloids all the time his family and his behaviour are put under scrutiny...Someone is betraying him and leaking his affairs to the press...Who can he trust.?
Is Kaitlyn the woman he is falling for be involved in hurting his family.?
I honestly never guessed who it was there are so many suspects Leslie North does a great job in writing so many red herrings making you suspect all the wrong people.
This is such a detailed story that is so well thought out and very captivating...the audiobook flows beautifully and keeps you entertained throughout.
The Narrators are Excellent and the writing is perfect I loved it very enjoyable.

This is the first book in the Billionaire Bossholes Series, a Contemporary Romance. I read it, and loved it. The audiobook version is great! Kaitlyn and James's story is engaging, sweet, and emotional, filled with drama, miscommunication, and twists and turns. Kaitlyn is kind and supportive. James, a single Dad, is handsome, grumpy, protective, and caring. His daughter Harper is so cute! I liked the instant connection between Kaitlyn and Harper. Lexi Evans and Logan Anare did an excellent job bringing this story to life. Lexi's child voice is amazing! I enjoyed it. Looking forward to more in the series.
