I love that this was my first {listen} read of 2025! It is sweet, angsty, and a single dad second chance romance… my favorite!
Bodhi, Henry’s first grade son, is the freakin’ cutest, and his play on matchmaker - adorable and hilarious! I looked forward to his pov and never tired of seeing things through his eyes. I absolutely melted when he claimed Jade as both Henry’s AND his.
The “it’s always been you” trope gets me every dang time. My romantic heart just melts, especially if there’s a long history beginning in childhood + mutual pining over a long period of time. Yes, please. It makes things even better when the story is as much swoony as it is funny, too. I loved the chemistry, the banter, and the meddling (in the best way) teammates.
I have learned that if there is a full-cast narrated audiobook - GIMME!! They are so immersive and it’s a whole VIBE. Full-cast for Mr. Broody included: Brooke Bloomingdale, JF Harding, Sean Masters, Connor Crais, Troy Duran, Teddy Hamilton, and Carly Robins. JF Harding as “Daddy Henry” should be enough said. He can read an instruction manual and have you looking at him with heart eyes. Overall, this cast was fun, swoony, and a fabulous group to listen to!
Mr. Broody is the second installment in The Nest series and let me just say…the ending!!! I absolutely cannot wait to read the third.

🏒 single dad
💘 friends to lovers
🏒 found family
