Trigger warnings: ableism, childhood neglect
Eve Brown is looking for a job, and the owner of the B&B she finds is irresistible.
I read both Get a Life, Chloe Brown and Take a Hint, Dani Brown in audio format, and loved the smart, sexy romances of the Brown sisters. The audiobooks are some of the most fun to listen to! In this final installment, the youngest Brown sister, Eve, has a directive from her parents to get a job and become independent.
Eve happens upon a B&B with a sign in the window asking for a chef. Eve has taken cooking and pastry classes for fun, so she enters in hopes of finding a job. The owner Jacob comes off as rude, but Dani does well in the interview. She's mortified when she leaves the interview and accidentally hits Jacob with her car.
Jacob's friend asks Eve to take over the B&B while Jacob is recovering, and Jacob is furious when he finds her there. But he's also distracted by how beautiful Eve is and how well she does her job.
These two may start as enemies, but their mutual attraction will ultimately be the undoing of their hostility. The sex scenes are steamy and descriptive, so readers of proper romance will not enjoy this one.
Talia Hibbert continues her tradition of focusing on differently-able characters. Big sister Chloe has fibromyalgia, Dani's boyfriend Zaf suffers from anxiety and grief, and Jacob is autistic.
Ione Butler is a wonderful narrator and her English-accented voice is full of emotion.
Recommended for romance fans.
