5 Rounds by Nikki Castle
4.0

3.5 stars

5 Rounds is the first book in The Fight Game series, but it can be read as a standalone.

Remy and Tristan hate each other, but suddenly find themselves roommates. Tristan only had one goal, and that was to become a world champion. He didn’t do relationships, but he did sleep around a LOT. Remy couldn't stand him. He was arrogant and really just an a**hole to her. She was focused on her job, despite not really liking it. And as they spend time with each other, they actually talk and get to know each other.

I didn’t really love the story, and I found myself taking a lot of breaks because I kept getting bored. But I loved the audio.

Audio:
Narrators: Brooke Daniels and Gideon Frost
Style: Duet

This audiobook was unlike anything I’ve heard before. I mean, the phone calls actually sounded like they were coming through a phone (so the narration didn’t sound like a regular conversation). There was also a part where the voice sounded muffled, as if the character’s face was on a pillow – which is what it was supposed to sound like. So really, the audiobook was fantastic!
