Kissing for Keeps

Sheppards in Love, Book 1

By: Martha Keyes

Narrated by: Ariel Royce, Christopher Rourke

History has a way of repeating itself.

Siena

Coming on the heels of a big, fat failure at work, my best friend Madi's glamorous French wedding is the perfect opportunity to prove I can do some things well–even if it kills me, which is looking like a distinct possibility. Maid of honor duties are no joke. And while I could honestly use an extra hand or ten, I have to refuse the offer of help from Madi's flirt of a brother, Jack. Nothing would spoil the beautiful wedding festivities faster than her finding out about that thing that happened between Jack and me that one time . . .

Not that there's any danger of it happening again. It was so long ago, I've forgotten everything about it, down to the brand of his cologne. Aqua Di Gio is so utterly predictable.

Jack

I admit, I haven't been the best brother to Madi. Okay, slight understatement–a history of dating her friends and ruining those friendships has landed me squarely in her black books.

But my offer to help Siena isn't some underhanded scheme to hurt Madi a third time. I genuinely want to be a better brother. As for teasing Siena in the meantime? That's just standard procedure for me.

Because everything is totally normal here. Nothing to see, folks.

swoony and sweet

This book had so many of the tropes I love in a romance...second chance...enemies to lovers....sister's brother and best friend.....forced proximity. Watching the hero Jack prove himself to heroine Siena, as well as to his sister Madi, was a journey well worth taking. Wonderful sweet and clean read that I highly recommend!

I enjoyed this first listen by this author

I enjoyed this story. I think the narrators did a nice job. I’ll check out more books by author

Cute

This story definitely had some cute moments but it didn’t wow me like many others I have read. It was very clean and I appreciate that! It wasn’t terrible at all, just not my favorite.

So sweet

This is exactly what I look for in a romantic comedy: sweet moments mixed with laughter. A wonderful listen.

So good!!!

I loved the almost frenemies to lovers vibes and past between sienna and jack! So much chemistry between them.
