My Reviews

Great addition to your writers tool box!

This book is exactly what it claims to be and not to be. It’s about juggling writing and everything else. There are a lot of examples, suggestions, details, but they are upfront that you are the biggest part of the equation. It takes hard work on your part, and this is not a get rich quick kind of book.

The author is a real example of how to make it work with a busy life. He has a family, full time job, and is a writer.

Chapters are short but full of information. I’m glad I could get the ebook version through kindle unlimited for free because it makes finding the referenced suggestions easier. Just click the link inside the book while listening and you are brought straight to the book on amazon. For me it is an easy way to grab the title and put it into a search at my library’s online catalog. I also found many of the titles on Scribd.

The narrator, John Alan Martinson Jr. has a great voice that I loved listening to, and would make a good narrator for a romance book. Sadly, despite have a long list of titles on Audible, he has no romances listed. Perhaps he has a pen name that he uses for other genres. I can only hope!

I give this 5 stars because it delivers on what it claims and it is a title that will be going into my writers tool box for sure!

You had me at the title!

This was a fun ride of a book!

I love some comedy with my steam, and this author definitely delivers.

Some may find a talking “Peen” an instant “No” when reading the book description, but I am here to tell you to rethink that thought and say “Yes” to this story. We always make comments and jokes about men being led by their brain below the belt and this story simply gives it a name and a voice. Oddly enough, this actually make it less creepy.

Holly has not had as much luck of late in the boyfriend department. She agrees to a date set-up with her best friend’s brother on Halloween. (I don’t know how she has never met him already considering they live in the same town and it is her best friend, but if they had, we wouldn’t get this story.) They are to meet at a bar in costume. Holly’s naughty nurse to his Sexy Doctor.

Mathew is a Physician’s Assistant meeting his brothers for a drink after work at the same bar. It was a long day and he didn’t bother to change out of his work clothes. Holly has already been waiting for over an hour for her date to show so thinks the hottie in the scrubs at the bar is Jayne’s brother. Not being able to resist what Holly is throwing at him, Mathew doesn’t correct her. What we get is a funny romp through a comedy of errors.

Mathew was completely adorkable who needs to invest in some super glue for Holly’s feet. Holly needs to quit it with the cinnamon booze! That way only lies puke!

This audiobook was narrated by both Tor Thom and Charley Ongel and they complimented each other well. Tor Thom be still my little heart! His voice was deep and sexy and I would love to hear him voicing a shifter romance! I wanted to slap Holly a couple times, which says to me that Charley Ongel did an excellent job.

I give this title 5 of 5 stars and would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good romance with a side of laughs.

This title is featured in the Read Along With Me section.

Bitch quit running!

♥
Seriously!

@ Chapter 17

Jayne might be self-absorbed but at least she is honest.

♥

You don’t have to put all the naughty details in a story to tell someone how you met the love of your life.

Let me example it for you:

I met my husband at a house party. He was the brother of one of the people that invited me. We just clicked and haven’t been apart since. That doesn’t need to be expanded with any of the other details from that night. See, Easy Peasy!

@ Chapter 19

Seriously Holly!

♥

And Yes, you are so stupid!

♥

Ugh!

Poor adorkable Mathew, you really can’t win, can you? He just goes that one step too far.

@ Chapter 09

I can’t stand cinnamon alcohol! Every time someone has done shots of it in the many forms it comes in, there has been puke! I do not know of anyone either that doesn’t have the same story!

Yep, just as I thought, here comes deep voice douche-bag! Ugh! I so wish she’d just punch him in the throat. Ugh!

—Crossing fingers for Doctor Hottie to show up!

@ Chapter 10

Yayyyy!,

Nooooo!,

Wrong Bar!,

Go to Holly’s bar!

One of these days I’m going to actually remember to order a lemon drop! This beverage has shown up in many a book I’ve listened to. It’s amazing how many new drink I find in books!

Oh Mathew, you poor kindly, lonely fool! I have a feeling I know where this is going! I want to give them both a hug!

@ Chapter 11

To Holly: Is he a person, then yeah, he has a name!

To Uber Driver: You are driving people at midnight dude! You should expect mostly drunk people, I’m just saying.

Fun Fact Learned: Only male turkeys gobble! Didn’t know that. Did you know that?

Ok, Is anyone else having flashes of the scene in Rocky Horror Picture Show where they are saying and repeating each other’s names? Brad, Janet, Rocky, Doctor Scott?
