About this listen
If only life came with a guarantee.
Patrick McNaughton wants more. More people drinking Foghorn’s beer, more money to push their brewery past the competition, and more cooperation from his brothers, who have no sense of urgency. He’s all about conquering one challenge on his way to the next, so long as there’s a remote chance of winning. That’s why Aspen Pane sits in the office down the hall, oblivious to his attraction. Patrick has always wanted more with her, but he never was one to risk it all.
Aspen Pane has more than enough. As business manager for Foghorn, she keeps the brewery in the black and lives up to the nickname the McNaughton brothers gave her - Wonder Woman. She’s worked hard her whole life for the money she now has in the bank, the small house she calls home, and time with her friends. So, even though it seems everyone close to her, including her brother, is inconveniently falling in love, Aspen sticks with her to-do list. Because love risks everything and she doesn’t do that for anyone.
After an unexpected flight and an eccentric venture capitalist thrust them into a battle of wits and lies even they’re not sure they can win, Patrick and Aspen must learn the difference between making a connection and making money. They may need to face their fears and risk it all in the name of finding a new work-love balance.

very very slow burn with 2 annoying MCs
I started with a written sample and thought it was a good beginning, so I purchased the audiobook. But I found I didn't like Aspen and Patrick wasn't much better.
I also didn't love Grand like many other reviewers did. I felt the way she supported Aspen was detrimental to her ability to form relationships and possibly further divided Aspen from her mother, Grand's own daughter.
Patrick's issues were different, and spending time in his head annoyed me, the preoccupation with winning and not understanding how he was hurting his brothers!
The random venture capitalist is the intended villain of the story, but these 2 were their own worst enemy.
The finale wraps up quickly. Grand finally tries to help Aspen at 35yo realise that she had a great love story with her Pop (too late for my mind). And Aspen and Patrick go from workaholic cold loners to PDA life in balance way too quickly. That journey I would have liked to see instead of 20 chapters of I can't trust men, and I need to win at all costs!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
