Bookworm and the Beast
Eastport Bay Billionaires, Book 1
By: Tru Taylor
Narrated by: Laney Scott, Roman Strong

Fairytales retold with a hint of comedy. Where can you go wrong? This is such a fun listen, I had didn't want to stop listening. Bonnie has always loved he writing of Jack RR Bestia. When told she is going to do an interview with him though, she's not sure it's the best idea. If he remembers the first time they met, there may be no interview. Jack has no interest in doing this, but with his deadline approaching and his publisher on his back, he knows he has to. And our fun begins. These two are so entertaining! From their meet cute to their next meeting, we are laughing and getting to know them. Jack is a grumpy, broody man. His hard shell is difficult to break through. Bonnie is emotional and I love her! She is easy to relate to. And we cannot forget Mrs. Potts. Such the matchmaker. This was a blast and if you enjoy fairytales, this is a must listen.

Laney Scott starts us off as Bonnie with her word vomit and had me laughing out loud. I love her cadence and ability to tune into the mind of Bonnie! She made her real and fun. Roman Strong is new to me, and I absolutely loved him! He has a hint of sarcasm and falls into the character of Jack with ease. He adds just enough emotion to make Jack believable and easy to love. This is a great team and enjoyable performance.
