About this listen

When people-pleasing Chloe learns that her birth mother has unexpectedly had another baby, she doesn't hesitate to become a next-of-kin guardian. But when she fails to pass Child Protective Services' financial evaluation, she is faced with a choice: see her baby sister placed in foster care or participate in CPS' new initiative, TeamUp.

Enter Warren, a surly mechanic's apprentice attempting to get custody of his deaf fifteen-year-old brother after failing CPS' housing evaluation. The two strangers immediately clash but agree to live together until Warren can find housing elsewhere and Chloe can further grow her freelance career.

As their lives intertwine, Chloe and Warren both realize that they're far more similar than they could have imagined. What started as forced begins to feel natural—and far less lonely. Chemistry soon intensifies beyond what either of them can stand, but they must each decide if what burns between them is worth risking their arrangement.

With banter, heart, and steam that will have the listener blushing, Next of Kin is a true underdog story of two young adults redefining what family can look like.

Narrator was brilliant, really enjoyed the story and felt engaged with the characters. Realistic storyline with almost insta love after enemies to lovers. Will definitely read more from this author

This is the third book I have read by this author and she is definitely becoming one of my favorites. I love how she creates such real and likable character with flaws and all. Their problems are relatable and not overdramatized. You root for Chloe and Warren from page one. The narrator is good as well.

Another beautiful story by Hannah Bonham-Young
