It’s part of her This was my first book by Jessica Prince, and she’s now at the top of my list of new-to-me authors who I can’t wait to read more of. It’s part of her Pembrooke series but can definitely be read as a standalone. I absolutely love Josie and Vaughn. Jolie is so relatable, and the perfect mix of sass and sweet. She has a big heart, but isn’t afraid to stand up for herself and put people in their place when necessary. Vaughn is the biggest grump and doesn’t like anyone (until he gets to know Jolie). His history with his family is heartbreaking and it’s easy to see why he is the way he is, but it added such a great storyline. Their crazy meet cute and enemies to lovers vibes set their relationship up in the most perfect way. I was giddy, blushing, and swooning the whole way through, and love my new book boyfriend. I also have a new favorite nickname - Calamity. I love the way Jessica dealt with the with the events with Jolie’s ex-fiancé. This part of the story wasn’t over the top enough to make my blood boil but added just enough drama. I’m sure we all know someone like him and it’s always great when characters get what they deserve. I was laughing hysterically every time Vaughn called him by the wrong name.
The audiobook is incredible, I will listen to anything performed by Andi Arndt and Christian Fox to begin with, but they’re such a great pairing together, and were amazing at bringing Jolie and Vaughn to life ...more
Wow! I don’t know what I was expecting but this book is so much more than I ever could have predicted. I was blown away by the writing, the settings, Wow! I don’t know what I was expecting but this book is so much more than I ever could have predicted. I was blown away by the writing, the settings, and the characters and their development. I couldn’t get enough of Chord, Violet, and the rest of them. These two are so different from each other, and I love when opposites attract, but the chemistry and love between them was on another level, leaping off the pages and giving this reader allll the feels. I love stories and series about big families, and the dynamic between Chord and his siblings, and the family business, was so interesting, and I am glad this is the first in ...more

Shep and Thea’s story is so heartwarming and sweet, while also dealing with trauma and crazy situations. Catherine’s writing is so phenomenal, and the way she tells a story keeps you hooked from beginning to end. She is able to incorporate romance, mystery/suspense, and comedy in her books, and make it all come together seamlessly, all while developing her characters in the most perfect of ways.

The audiobook is absolutely amazing and I’m so happy to have received an ALC. Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon were fantastic, I can never get enough of listening to them or singing their praises. They portrayed Shep and Thea perfectly! ...more
