About this listen

A brand new stand-alone romantic comedy from the best-selling, award-winning team of Sarina Bowen & Elle Kennedy.

Hosting her brother's wedding for an MVP guest list is the challenge of Jess Canning's life. Already the family screw-up, she can't afford to fail. And nobody (nobody!) can learn of the colossal mistake she made with the best man during a weak moment last spring. It was wrong, and there will not be a repeat. Absolutely not. Even if he is the sexiest thing on two legs.

Blake Riley sees the wedding as fate's gift to him. Jess is the maid of honor and he's the best man? Let the games begin. So what if he's facing a little (fine, a lot) of resistance? He just needs to convince the stubborn blonde that he's really a good boy with a bad rap. Luckily, every professional hockey player knows that you've got to make an effort if you want to score.

But Jess has more pressing issues to deal with than sexy-times with a giant man-child. Such as: will the ceremony start on time, even though someone got grandma drunk? Does glitter ever belong at a wedding? And is it wrong to murder the best man?

Caution: May cause accidental aspiration of tea or coffee. Do not listen in a public place where loud laughter is inappropriate. Contains hot but hilarious hockey players, puppy cuddling, and a snarky pair of underwear. Cover art copyright Okay Creations.

Love

I love this book so much, I love that it wasn’t insta love and there were so many dramas and reasons not to be together but they worked on it. This book is just everything and revisiting Jamie and Wes just took it to the next level. Great narrators and an even better story line

*5 Stars*

Loved this audio. I listened to this in only a few days, which is unusual for me. I really liked both Jess and Blake, and even though they seem so different to each other, they work well as a couple. Blake has a lot more to him underneath the fun and cheery personality. Jess has some great serious moment in her nursing role.

The Riley family is awesome, except for Brenna in some parts, but that gets resolved as things go on. Wesmie are in this of course and I loved having the there too.

Really enjoyed this one, and definitely recommend!

So much fun to listen to

Story = 4 1/2 stars

Blake Riley is without a doubt my favourite character in Good Boy ( other than Jamie and Wes of course! ). I liked Jess too, but Blake was just hilarious. I smiled so many times listening to his POV, he was sweet, at times goofy and completely oblivious, and persistent! He was such a good match for Jess, it just took a while for Jess to be able to see that as well. Loved, moving onto Stay now. Him/Us/Good Boy have all been amazing audiobooks to listen to, and I enjoyed reading the ebooks as well.

Fun!!

I'll admit to just selecting this book at random when I needed a filler to tide me over till I could get the next book in a favourite series of mine, but I actually found myself enjoying it more than I thought I would!
Wasn't overly keen on her voice but liked his. But enjoyed the story enough that I could get past that.
I'm curious to know if anyone else thought the ending was a bit random? I mean it was great, they were happy and excited about the game but it felt like there should be more.

Voice

I really love this story, and Teddy did a great job with Blake, but I feel like the woman's voice was too old for the character...

So funny 🤣🤣

Teddy Hamilton was the perfect choice for Blake. His character was so funny and he read this perfectly. This was the first book I have listened to by these authors and I have just bought book 2 in the series. It was a great listen for our road trip and would recommend to anyone who wants a light, easy read. Very entertaining and lots of laughs. Took a little time for the female narrator to grow on me but by the half way mark I was enjoying her voice too.

Big Golden-Retriever energy

Silly, sweet, and big golden-retriever energy for the whole book. Love getting to know Riley more and Jess is a blast.

Yes and no

For me the first 1/2 of this book didn’t grab me I was even thinking I’m going to give up so I listened in a faster speed then with about 3 hrs left I loved it, so I’m on the fence with the his book maybe having 2 authors I resonated to one style of writing to the other

It not a book I’d listen to again but I bought the next in the series.

The narrators were great 👍 I liked them both

the beginning - meh.

the start of the book wasn't all that inviting. but I pushed through, just had it on in the background while doing house work. it didn't start to get funny till about mid to 3/4s of the way through. but after it got funny, it was actually good. the narrators weren't that great, nothing on Jacob Morgan in Stay. it was well read, but not acted.
