Summary

A small-town fake-relationship romantic comedy. 

Josh Landry is one of the hottest bartenders in New Orleans. He’s shown many a female tourist that things are definitely big and easy down here. And he’s now been celibate for a year. Because he finally met her. 

Yes, her. The One.

But after nothing more than a hot good-night kiss and a promise to meet up again next year if they’re both still interested, she went home to Iowa.

It’s been a long year.

But now it's Mardi Gras again, and he's ready for his happily ever after. If she shows up. Oh, she shows up. For her best friend’s wedding. But Tori is a terrible bridesmaid because all she can think about is her knight-in-shining-Mardi-Gras-beads from last year. Well, and because she accidentally lays a hot kiss on her BFF. A.k.a. the groom.

Unfortunately, no one believes that it was a case of mistaken identity. So now she has to convince everyone she has no intention of ruining the wedding. She's going to need a crazy-about-her boyfriend ASAP. Even if he’s just faking it.

Well there's only one other person she knows in Louisiana...Josh is all in. In fact, he's thrilled. And he's not faking anything. But the groom isn't faking his sudden case of cold feet either.

And now Tori might have a choice to make.

Boys, Beignets and all the stars!

I received this audiobook via a promo code from Audiobook Obsession at my request and this is my voluntary review.

After some very dark and demanding reads, this aural treat was as refreshing as a Hurricane after a hot day in the Bayou.

Tori and Josh decide to pull a Serendipity move after they met during Mardi Gras a year prior, both back in Louisiana hoping the other will show up at the same bar where they met and shared some very steamy kisses. Hilarity Calamity and missed connections lead a very tipsy Tori to kiss a handsome masked stranger in the bar, thinking its Josh when the guy is familiar with her, except it turns out to be Andy... her bestie and the groom to the wedding she's in town for. Worse? The Bride shows up just in time to find them lip-locked. Desperate to prove that her Mardi Gras Promise was real and that she really did think it was Josh, she tracks him down much to his relief and he becomes her plus one. Tori is a loveable Vet and Josh is the hot bartender/tour guide boy from the Bayou who goes all out to convince the brunette Bridesmaid to become his Bayou Bride.

Loved this, sweet, funny and Neill Thornes voice is so soothing.... I want to go to Louisiana now just to experience grits lol

Loved it!

This is my first Erin Nicholas book and I’m not disappointed!

I read/listen to a lot of dark romances, so this is definitely way on the other side of the spectrum. But I enjoyed it!

Tori and Josh meet and agree to meet again in a year. And when they do the chemistry is still there!

Before we get into what I liked, I just want to put it out there I do not like Andrew or his fiancé. I can’t even remember her name. She is such a “female dog”! And Andrew is not a very good best friend.

I loved Josh and his family. Quirky. That’s what comes to mind. And Tori has her moments to.

Overall, I really enjoyed the story. Amanda & Neill did a great job narrating!

One of my favorite fictional couples

Tori and Josh just might be one of my favorite fictional couples. Tori is sweet, innocent and loves animals to an extreme (basically me) and Josh is this outgoing playboy-type, though still very sweet and gentlemanly (I now declare Josh my book-boyfriend FYI). They are so different in so many ways, yet complete each other and I adored how they just accepted each other for who they were. And their chemistry is off the charts!! This story is both steamy, sweet, silly and incredibly well-described - I could almost picture myself being in Louisiana, with this amazing crazy-but-loving family! I swear, I sat with either a huge grin or rolled my eyes half the time while listening.
Amanda Stribling and Neill Thorne did an amazing job narrating this story - they really brought the story to life!!

So, so enjoyable, great story, ace narration

I really enjoyed this story. It's gentle and light with some steam thrown in. It made me chuckle in several places and I was a little sad when it ended as I wanted to spend more time with the characters. Neill Thorne and Amanda Stribling did a brilliant job with the narration, in fact they were so good I kind of ignored them, and yes I'm aware how odd that sounds! So very enjoyable.

Just what I hoped it would be.

I have read several books by the hugely talented Erin Nicholas and have enjoyed every one, but audiobooks are different, you get to hear the words from the books but they are acted by the narrators and that can make or break the story.

I have previously listened to the impressively skilled voice acting by Amanda Stribling and Neill Thorne who both did an outstanding job narrating this fun, sexy and all round wonderful romance. They both managed to deliver the right amount of humour into the story.

I loved the plot, especially the steam and chemistry between Josh and Tori. They were sweet and I adore Josh’s family. Andrew and Paisley were both annoying but in the kind of way that I wanted them to be.

All in all, I was crazy about this audiobook and will be immediately diving in to Sweet Home Louisiana, the next audiobook in the series.

Tori and Josh


This is an enjoyable, sexy, hot fun story about how Tori Kramer, a veterinarian from Iowa, who on a weekend trip to New Orleans met Josh Landry who was tending the bar. Although there was an instant connection between them nothing happened as Tori would soon be going home to Iowa but before she left they agreed to meet again at Mardi Gras the following year. Because if they both show then their connection must have been real and have meaning.

To find out what happens the following year you will have to read/listen to the book yourself, no more spoilers from me. what I will say is you won't be disappointed.

Tori and Josh are both so likeable and well-drawn they share lots of palpable chemistry, the author brought out their personalities and let them discover just who they really are, I found meeting Josh's bayou family too.

The narration of this book by Amanda Stribling and Neill Thorne is excellent and added to my enjoyment of this enjoyable and fun read.

I received this audiobook as a gift and am voluntarily writing my review

My Best Friend's Mardi Gras Wedding

This was a really easy listen. Erin Nicholas is a new author to me. This book had everything I expected from a southern romance with dash of crazy bayou shenanigans. Amanda and Neill did an amazing job narrating with the southern Louisiana accent.

AN ABSOLUTE CELEBRATORY 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

AN ABSOLUTE CELEBRATORY 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

MY BEST FRIEND'S MARDI GRAS WEDDING
(BOYS OF THE BAYOU, #1)
BY: ERIN NICHOLAS
NARRATED BY: AMANDA STRIBLING & NEILL THORNE

I immediately loved the idea that even though Josh, a sexy bartender, was totally smitten with Tori, a gorgeous vet who collects random pets he accepted that it was too soon to start something new and agrees to make a pact to meet a year later if they are both still single.
When a year passes they attempt to do just that however it doesn’t quite go to plan and Tori ends up accidentally kissing her best friend, Andrew, who is suppose to be getting married.
You can clearly see that Josh and Tori still have so much chemistry between them but first she has to prove that she has no feelings for her best friend Andrew and this is where Josh comes in to help by agreeing to a fake relationship with Tori which to be honest was never really fake.
So they go to Andrew's wedding together and encounter A few twists and turns they must
navigate but you cannot deny the spark these two is just off the scale and is only gonna lead to one thing! I absolutely loved this book the story of Josh and Tori was just simply amazing and a joy to listen to as Amanda Stribling and Neill Thorne did an amazing job of bringing these character alive. I’m certainly looking forward to more books from Nicholas!
(I received an ALC for an honest review)
