I'd Never Date My Brother's Best Friend

Bake My Day with Love, Book 1

By: Abby Greyson

Narrated by: Zach Young, Lexi Balter

This is a kisses only, sweet romance.

A movie star, a grump next door and a dating experiment gone awry. My brother’s best friend has always been a gorgeous thorn in my side. He’s the famous Sean O’Connell, rom-com celebrity, owner of a smile that can melt even the coldest of hearts.

My new next-door neighbor is not the man of my dreams.

He’s one of the happiest people I’ve ever met, and to be honest, it’s annoying. I don’t have to be happy or like people. I’m good, thank you very much.

But Sean thinks I need to be happy, and that means being in a relationship. He’s recruited my best friend and my brother to put the “Get Jessica A Man” plan into action.

A makeover and some speed dating were absolutely not on my social calendar. But there’s no stopping him once his minds made up.

As Sean’s sunny disposition starts to rub off on me, I feel myself falling. But for the wrong guy.

Is it possible the thorn in my side is actually the rose I’ve been longing for?

5 stars

Ok, firstly, this book is incredibly enjoyable. The dialogue and banter was hilarious. I laughed out loud several times while listening. The story was well crafted and paced. It was absolutely delightful to ride along Sean and Jessica's love story. Secondly, the narration was super cool! This is a dual POV and there are two narrators. Not only do they narrate their own chapters, but also all their own dialogue. It was really engaging to have the narrators switch back and forth so frequently. I've never listened to an audiobook narrated like this before and loved it! This was an easy 5 stars for me.

Loved the dual narration from Zach Young and Lexi Balter

Sean is a successful rom com actor. Because of some unneeded and unwanted publicity he finds himself returning home. Jessica is a thriller writer, as long as she remembers she has had a crush on Sean. He is also the brother of her Evelyn her best friend. At a speed date Sean starts to see Jessica in new light.
Loved how Jessica is the grumpy and Sean is the light hearted one. You will find yourself laughing out loud, great humour and characters.

Sweet story

- Brother's best friend
- Enemies to lovers
- Reverse grumpy/sunshine
- Close proximity
- Fake dating

I know every time I pick up a book by Abby Greyson, I am in for a treat. Her characters are always sassy and fun to read and the romances are super sweet.
I had the opportunity to listen to this book and it was so fun! It had dual narration, so the characters felt more real.

Sean is an actor who comes back to his small hometown for some much needed down time. He encounters his best friend's little sister, whom he always secretly liked. Unbeknownst to him, she feels the same way.

This is a cute story with a nod to fake dating, which is one of the tropes I enjoy reading. It is a perfect story to listen to over a weekend.
