About this listen

She’s the queen of crash and burn dating.… He’s the sexy bartender, who wants to save her.

For Aubree Cole, finding love while building a lucrative career seems to be just out of her reach. The Meet Cute dating app sounded like a great idea. But a series of epically terrible dates at her favorite bar, Aubree is rethinking dating, until she meets him...the sexy Aussie behind the bar serving drinks.

Matthew comes to her rescue after her latest awful date bails on her. He gives her a much-needed cocktail and some great advice…along with inspiring a few naughty daydreams. It’s just enough to make her take a chance on love again.

When a secret admirer challenge lands in her dating app inbox to French kiss a stranger, she knows just where to start. Throwing caution to the wind, she accepts the dare. Maybe she needs to get out of her comfort zone a bit to uncover something…more. One supposedly-harmless challenge turns into multiple romantic encounters with Matthew, and she’s left more confused than ever about which man she wants more, the friendly neighborhood bartender or the sexy secret challenger from the dating app. Aubree is ready to find the one. But which one is he?

Short and Sweet Meet Cute

This has to be one of my all time favourite novella's and #ShaneQuickies - Shane East is my favourite voice actor and narrator and portrays all my favourite #BritishHeroes and also #AussieHeroes together with Stella Hunter who is one of the OGs in romance and I adore her - she's probs one of my fave female voices and her and Shane share a magic together that I cannot adequately put into words how perfect they are together.

Shane's Aussie accent is perfect and you can't even tell he is British - he is perfect - he actually sounds like he's from Adelaide and not Perth...I adore him he can really do no wrong and I would love to see him do more Aussie stuff and is a natural, but I guess being from London helps but again our accent is not the easiest and in-fact is quite difficult but Shane has such a depth of talent that it's seamless for him to switch between the accents and characters.
And let's not forget the amazing talents of Stella Hunter - her Aussie accent is fire and perfection - not to mention her male voice - she is a superstar and I adore her.

I fell in love with Aubree and Matthew's story as I knew I would right off the bat.
Matthew an Aussie Bartender and owner (although he doesn't share that with Aubrey until later).
Aubree is at his bar on a blind date that she met on a dating app: "Meet-Cute" and Matthew comes to her rescue after her date bails on her and over the course of the next few days their attraction to each other sizzles and it makes for a delicious quick read/listen and will leave you wanting more.

But I do love that this little feel-good steamy number is a quick pick me up on times when you want something to perk you up in a pinch. This is on my repeat listens and will be always.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
