Big Pickle

By: J. J. Knight

Narrated by: Chris Chambers, Loretta Rawlins

He's kind of a big dill.

They call me Big Pickle. It's not what you think. (Although that's true, too.) I happen to be the oldest Pickle in the family deli business. And we have the best salami. Take that one however you like.

But when my father announces the franchise will go to the most profitable of the three brothers, I learn that even though I'm the eldest Pickle, I'm dead last.

I hightail it to Texas to see what's happened to my restaurant, only to find a sassy little spitfire named Nova Strong in charge. She's amazing. She's sexy. She runs our deli like she owns it.

But despite the way we nearly melt the permafrost in the industrial freezer, I have to control myself. Nova thinks I'm a new employee. She has no idea I'm only there to spy. Or that I'm her boss.

As I get to the bottom of why my franchise is failing, I desperately need to know one thing: Is Nova Strong everything wrong with my deli, or everything right for me?

Contains mature themes.

A Sexy Pickle Pun Romantic Romp!❤️❤️❤️

LOVED this read! It you want fun, romance and puns...this book is for you! The story just brought a smile to my face. I never knew what was going to happen next between these two main characters. I Loved all the pickle puns and I almost wish there was an actual deli so I could get a shirt with those awesome sayings on it.

The characters have a boss/employee relationship with some hate-sparks right off the bat. Then it becomes a sexy pickled pun romantic romp but once again the hate comes back out because trust is something you can’t dill around with. Ha ha see what I did there?

Jason is in a pickle (for lack of a better term). He is a secret boss, in a competition, a sleuth and a liar. Not to mention a good heart and a great sense of humor. Nova (great name BTW) is a fiery outspoken gal. I love how she steps up and she really cares about everyone as well as inspires. Great character!

This is my first book by this author. I enjoyed all the laughs and good times. I look forward to more from her and hopefully Max and Anthony’s books.

The two narrators did a great job! I only wish Chris Chambers would have did a bit of singing of “I’m too sexy”. That would have topped it off!

Excellent book

Loved listening to Jace & Nova's live journey. Looking forward to other "pickle" books by this author. Hoping the next boom is about Max.

The wonderful ridiculousness of the title!

One of the big reasons I've picked this book was because of the ridiculous title. I knew it couldn't disappoint. It didn't. I laughed out loud many times. So many pickle puns that I didn't know how many more I could dill with! It was a fun yet steamy read.

Called it quits about 3/4 of the way in

It started off ok even though the female lead was a bit obnoxious. Then I did not find it believable that she just made herself temporary manager. Also the guy going to work In 1000 dollar jeans, regardless how out of touch he may be it’s nonsense. The relationship with the characters failed to evolve aside from just having sex. And then there was the sex scene on the metal prep table where food goes… I lost complete interest in these people and the story. I don’t recommend if you are looking for a good story with likable characters.

How

Difficult to finish.

Storyline far from gripping. Female narrator has annoying voice. Male character has little charisma. And marketing DillDough?
