Love all around!

Love this books, the main character and their extended family.

Catching up with Declan and Maddie if the Father Day book was great, he really does love his wife!

Billy Boston and Donna make a great pairing, she excepts Billy for who his is and doesn’t want to change him. Side note: who wants to go on a Billy Boston Night of debauchery? I would love to go in adventure with him, Declan, Nolan, Eddie and their wives!

Piper get her HEA with Holden and her own RomCom love story was the best for her. After being over protected by her well meaning “Uncles”, she deserved that story.

All the extra stories, chef kiss. Love this family and the writing is so entertaining!

Only, criticism I have is Jason Clark voicing Holden, his voice just doesn’t go with a 25 yr old. I love his voice, but not in the context of someone in their 20/30’s.

so much fun

I am sad to leave these crazy yahoos. I have never laughed so much. I am still laughing.

Connor Crais is spectacular as the narrator with all of the accents (Irish, Boston). Jason Clarke as Holden. Seriously, I am in heaven and never want to leave.

Narration and funny dialog.

Totally loved this whole series. The narrators did a wonderful job. And I loved the duel narration.

Fabulous!

I cannot even describe how much I loved these stories. They are equally filled with tons of laughs, loads of entertainment and lots of love. This is a fantastic series. Narration was perfection.

This Series is Rom Com Gold!

How to choose a favorite in a series full of favorites. This entire series is full of fantastic characters. I love how interconnected they all are. Connor Crais brings so many memorable characters to life with sooo many accents. The work of all the voice artists is beyond, truly elevating already wonderful writing.
I’m particularly partial to A Very Snowed in New Year since I’ve listened to Piper grow up over 6 books and 10 years of her life, from butt obsessed tween to the amazing young woman who absolutely deserves her HEA and is still butt obsessed.
Kayley Loring’s humor is exactly my cup of tea. I laughed out loud many times during this listen. I will now be doing a deep dive into all of Connor and Kayley’s other books because if they write it, I’m reading it.
