Talk Flirty to Me by Livy Hart
4.0
A second chance romance, where the characters have to narrate the steamiest audiobook while pretending to hate one another, with both the brother's best friend and the one bed only trope? As soon as I saw that book, I KNEW I had to request it.
Sam O'Shea is a year older than Piper Bellini, he's her brother's best friend and they've known each other forever. They dated all through high school until a misunderstanding occurred, a misunderstanding that lead them to a pretty harsh breakup.
Years later, Piper comes back to her hometown to help her mother with her pregnancy. She's now a voice actress who's really struggling to find a job and achieve her dream career. Coming back home is not without its difficulty though, namely, her hot firefighter ex running for mayor. Although Piper tries her best to avoid him, she quickly understands that it isn't in her best interest to do so. She was given the opportunity of a lifetime and really needs Sam to help her with a gig, the gig being the recording of an erotic audiobook.
As Sam and Piper work on the narration of that book, they're faced with their unresolved baggage and their inability to resist each other.
This was such a fun book to read. It was a little bit cliché sure, but it was incredibly entertaining. I couldn't bring myself to put the book down (which is great, because I had covid and really needed a distraction). It's Livy Hart's debut novel yet it was truly fantastic. It was everything I expected it to be and more.
This book perfectly illustrates all of the reasons why I love romance so much: it's angsty and funny, the characters are delightful and their chemistry was through the roof. The banter was so swoony, it made me giggle like a 5th grader. And the heroine's gigantic family was amazing. I love big chaotic families in books and Piper's family was ridiculously funny (and at times really touching).
I SIMPLY LOVED IT, it's a new comfort read that’s for sure and I strongly recommend it. (4.25/5)
