Beautiful Mess by Ashley James (A. James) & narrated by Alex Kydd and CJ Bloom.
There is an equal amount of plot and spice. This book is definitely driven by these main characters getting it on, but it felt very fun and sweet. I enjoyed the relationship dynamic. Grace is strong, independent, and running her own business, and Conway is older and has a second go at raising a younger child.
I read the audiobook that has dual narration done by Alex Kydd and CJ Bloom. I will say I did not care for the male narrator in the first couple of chapters; he was a little too growly. However, once the book got started, it improved significantly, and I think overall, these two narrators did a fantastic job. I loved having dual narration for this book and thought that he made the story more interesting and dynamic for the listening experience.
Overall, my reading and listening experience was fun, and I would recommend this book if you love high spice and some emotional turmoil
What to Expect!
Small Town
Age Gap
Ex Boyfriend's Dad
Single Mom x Single Dad
Grumpy Sunshine
Daddy Kink
She Falls First/He Falls Harder
Baker
Blue Collar
Forced Proximity
