This story is amazing! As soon as I was done, I wanted to listen to it again.
I loved the main characters and those around them. I enjoyed the chemistry between Jordan and Rex when they were on the outs and even more when they were working together.
I was instantly pulled into this world and it made me want to join a book club again.
Also, Brent Billings's narration really brought the story to life. This was my first book by the author and narrator. I look forward to more.

Great story AND performances....
The progression of Emery and Cal relationship was real and I was pulled in from the beginning.

This was a pretty cute story with just enough conflict to be interesting, and a HEA ending (apparently making way for a sequel, but doesn't feel open-ended). I didn't really care for either of the main characters, though, and felt that they were both a bit one-dimensional.
My main issues with the book are in the writing and editing. The POV constantly switches back and forth between the leads within chapters with little more than an extra space between paragraphs to let you know who's head you're in. It only got confusing a few times where I had to re-read parts to make sure I know who was speaking but it's just bad writing.
The characters, besides maybe Jordan's grandmother, were all boring and we never really get to know any of them enough, even the main leads. Rhett/Rex gave me very little to like, and was seemingly always in control of the action, while Jordan was a total wet towel (until Rex needed a tiny bit of comforting and then he was suddenly an alpha type???).
This is an enemies-to-lovers sort of tale, mostly because Rex is a total dick, but it ends with this grand declaration of love between them that I felt came sort of out of left field. They should have just remained friends and could maybe become more of an item after actually getting to know each other.
Overall, only recommended if you need a quick read with a HEA but otherwise, it's very meh.… (meer)

Stars: 3.5

Rex Bailey Back in the small town he grew up in to deal with his grandmother’s estate.

The Story:
A fast-paced small-town romance with focus on a book club. I like the way the book club was a long-standing tradition and Jordan keeps it going. I enjoyed it but did not have any strong reactions. Jordan and rex are cool. There are a couple of steamy scenes and a couple of really emotional scenes. I think both guys grow and end up in a good place in the end.… (meer)
