A Moment Like You
The Baker’s Creek Billionaire Brothers #2
By: Claudia Burgoa
Narrated by: Aaron Shedlock, Stacy Gonzalez
Claudia Burgoa continues her Baker's Creek Billionaire Brothers with Henry's story. He is the hotel mogul, and he is serious and demanding! Sophia is his match in every way, and together they are running his empire. But little does she know what he has done and what he plans! And just when things are starting to come together, a wrench they don't see coming is thrown at them! Will the be able to overcome the craziness that is family? This book is packed full of humor, witty banter, misunderstanding, and a slow burning passion that had me hooked from the very start. The premise for this series has me intrigued and with each brother, I am more invested in the outcome. Henry is a bit crazy at times with his difficult ways He is hard to like until we get to know him, and then it's impossible not to love him. Sophia too is a bit closed off, keeping her private life to herself and as she begins to bloom, we see the real woman that she is. This is a great story and has me wanting to start the next one right away!
Aaron Shedlock and Stacy Gonzalez are the narrating team for this gem and they are amazing together. Shedlock always wins my heart with his narrations. He knows how to delve into the psyche of Henry and make him likable, even when he isn't'! Gonzalez keeps the shields up for Sophia and slowly lets them down with her voice. Packed full of emotions, this book was a joy to listen to .

I could tell he was going to be special. All that bark had to lead somewhere. I didn't realize what a romantic he was! Henry is hiding a whole lot of awesome underneath the gruff exterior. His not so secret crush has a way of changing everything.
Sexy, sweet, and not without it's own brand of crazy, A Moment Like You is exactly what you need to fall further in love with all the Alderidge boys. If you didn't already have a favorite, you're going to have a tougher time deciding now.

A Moment Like You is the second book in the Baker's Creek Billionaire Brothers Series, but definitely as good as the first. It's a heartwarming story that has quite a few ups and downs. The author has done a fantastic job here.
I had no problem to sympathise with the protagonists, Henry and Sophia. Their dynamic is great, and the transformation they went through only adds to that. Sophia is a wonderful character, good-hearted and a perfect fit for Henry. Their story, especially the problems that arise because of Henry's father's will, will keep you in their spell. I also loved to see the brother's relationships with each other grow and strengthen.
This family hold's a little place in my heart, and I can't wait for more books to come.

We saw Henry and Sophia in book one of this series. This book brings us their story that has taken place over many years.
We get to watch Henry learn how to show his love and we get to see Sophia learn that she doesn’t always have to do everything by herself.
They are such an amazing team and I loved watching them navigate through things on their way to their HEA.

When I started reading this book, I had no idea that it was book 2 in a series but it makes sense as there's obviously a backstory that would be much easier understood if you came in at the beginning. So, this was my introduction. So, as a standalone read I can say that it was very enjoyable. However, it did feel like I was the new friend coming into an established group. There were a lot of people & I had no idea about the relationships involved, which did make it very confusing at times. As for the main story of Henry & Sophia, it was lovely. I loved the progression that the reader had of Henry's personality and his reasoning. Likewise, I really enjoyed reading of Sophia's family struggles.

I am soo glad that Sophia and Henry were the next book up in this series as I fell in love with Sophia in the last book and her sass was fantastic. There is so much more to both Sophia and Henry and seeing those sides come out as the book went along made them so much more relatable and then throw in her family as well as his brings plenty of laughs and frustrations, however things most definitely are not smooth sailing. We find out more about the brothers as well as get to know the ladies better, get hints of under lying issues and that all is not as it seems with some of the outsiders which leaves you hanging for the next book as you want to know more!!!

It's official, I am fully invested in this family and the craziness they are going through. But let me say, it's gonna drive me crazy not knowing what those letters say!!
I wasn't sure what to think going into this book. I knew I was gonna love Sophia but I wasn't sure about Henry. He proved himself to me though, 100 times over. He may not have gone about doing things the right way but he sure loved Sophia. I couldn't be happier these two got their HEA, even with the twist!
Now to wait oh so patiently for the next book. Word of advice though, if you haven't read Hayes' book (Loved You Once) put this book down and go read it. Things will make more sense then. *I voluntarily read an advanced copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review.*
