Viviana's Review:
I really enjoyed this story. Lots of emotions and characters that you will like. I've listened to a few of Mia's books and they all have real emotions and moments that cause the water works to come out. This is no different. BRANT'S RETURN starts off with a moment that left you at the edge of your seat and then wanting more. 

I liked everything about this story except for the insta-love between the main characters, Brant  & Isabelle. Other than that, I really loved their character development and their story. They each of a lot of things baggage to deal with and sort through. I will say that it was a breath of fresh air to have the hero be the one that knew what he wanted first! 

Narrators Review: Jacob Morgan & Virginia Rose were perfect for this title. Their performance was  and enhanced the story. They each provided the characters with different voices/tones providing an additional depth to their performance. 

Overall, I really enjoyed this story and the characters. The pace was good and you will want to read more about them. I'm looking forward to listening to another Mia Sheridan book. 

Rating: 3.5 Stars - I Really Liked it!

Audiobook Review: Bro Code By: Kendall Ryan

Bro Code
By Kendall Ryan
Narrated by: Ava Erickson and Jacob Morgan

Blurb:

There’s pretty much only one rule when you’re a guy.

Don’t be a douche.

Turns out, the fastest way to break that rule is to fall for your best friend’s sister.

Ava’s brilliant, sharp-tongued, gorgeous, and five years younger than me.

She’s the sexual equivalent of running with scissors. In a word, she’s dangerous. And completely off-limits.

Falling for her could ruin everything.

Yet I can’t seem to stop, even when her company is threatened by a lawsuit, and my promotion hinges on representing the opposing client—and winning.

I can’t see a way out of this mess that doesn’t end in a broken friendship, a broken heart, or a ruined career.

I may have broken the bro code when I fell for Ava. But do I have the balls to handle what comes next?

Viviana's Review:
I've listened to a handful of duet narration and they have been good/ok, however, this one is showcases duet narration done right! The story was a fun listen! I enjoyed that Ava & Barrett were friends and that it wasn't an "insta-love". I will say that the whole "I can't be with her because she's my bff's sister/I can't be with him because he is my brother's bff" got a tad bit 'old' as it was repeated often though out the book..... as if the reader needed a reminder, several times over.

There was lots of great conversations/banter and the main characters have great chemistry. Some moments were very sweet and yes, there are plenty of sexy moments too! There are lots of fun family moments and you can see there is a great dynamic between them all.

As with any romance, there has to be a conflict/obstacle for the main characters to overcome. In this case, the "bro code" isn't the only one. Not going to provide spoilers, however, I did wish that there was a bit more groveling done and not as quick to forgive.


Narrators Review: 
Love narrator Jacob Morgan and though I've never listened to Ava Erickson before, I will now! Their performance was superb and listeners will love them!

Overall This was a really good listen and if you have never listened to a duet narration, this is one of the ones I'd recommend you start with.

Rating: 3.5 Stars - Really Liked It!
