About this listen

Mark Beckett is the most annoying, patronizing, arrogant jerk on the face of the earth. So, naturally, I can’t get the damn man out of my head.

Fiona:
Like the old saying goes, I’m a jill of all trades but a master of none. What I lack in skill, however, I make up for in enthusiasm - something certain people (ahem) find irritating. But I have my reasons for living my life the way I do, for diving into one project after another and trying to make a difference. And if Mark Beckett doesn’t like it, he knows where to find the door. I don’t need his approval...or his panty-melting kisses.

Mark:
I enjoy the simple things in life: a job well done, a cold beer, a hot woman...you get the idea. But there’s nothing simple about the mess I just found myself in. The last thing I need is a pint-size princess sticking her nose in my business and pushing every damn one of my buttons like it’s her job. But Fiona Pierce may be the only one with the tools to solve my problems - and the power to change everything.

This was a fun and easy read. The characters are easy to love and fun to listen too! I liked that he ended up on the other side of the story from his past. Great banter. Excellent duet narrators!

Mark and Fiona didn't have a great first impression of each other but after Fiona helps Mark with a personal family dilemma, their interest and affection for each other grows. But both are more interested in one-night stands. Or are they?

I liked their banter and there were so many really funny parts in this book. Just their reactions to certain situations, their sarcasm but affection and their chemistry really elevated this story. I also loved seeing Lanie and Nate again; it's always wonderful to visit the prior couples. Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I received the audiobook upon request but I have bought the ebook.

In terms of the audiobook, it is really well done. Both Amanda Stribling and David Black are so good as the characters with excellent control of their voices to play multiple characters. I thought their reading elevated the story.

Funny and sweet

Really quite enjoyed this one. A little bit of everything in it comedy romance and a little angst. Both characters were strong and endearing. Performance wise male narrator not my favourite but still enjoyed this very much.
