Mouth to Mouth

Beach Kingdom, Book 1

De: Tessa Bailey

Narrado por: Kas Vadim, Simone Lewis

A man with a prison record has no place around a fresh faced college student.

Tell that to Rory Prince. He should stay the hell away from Olive Cunningham. There’s one small problem, though. She won’t stop almost getting killed. With this too-smart, too-sweet girl holding his heart in her hands, Rory is powerless to do anything but keep saving her.

Homeschooled from a young age, Olive is now out on her own and discovering the world, one milkshake flavor at a time. Until recently, she has experienced life through books. She’s walked in a million sets of shoes while flipping pages—enough to know that Rory gives her once-in-a-lifetime feelings. If only he would stop trying to protect her…from himself.

Very steamy! 🥵

The story line is good. I struggled a bit with the man who was doing the voice of the female main character. I honestly didn’t care for how he did the male voice either, it threw me off at times while listening to the book.

One of my favorite Tessa books!

The audio was perfect for this! I love this series and it was so much fun to reread it

Dirty talk!

Tessa Bailey has one dirty mouth, or should I say her characters do. This is definitely an insta love book, which is not my favorite troupe but it was still entertaining and I liked it.

Hot Hot Hot!!

3.75 stars!!

Tropes: dual narration, age gap, ex-con, grumpy-ish x Sunshine, “sunbeam”

I loveeee me some Tessa Bailey!!! This was such a fun read & I’m about to devour the rest of the series

Love Tessa!

I love everything that Tessa Bailey puts out, so I guess I’m biased. Some I adore him more than others, but this series has been one of my favorites, especially the first book, but there are a lot of references to Jamie and Marcus, and their story is book 2.

Rory and Olive have their own issues and demons, but they are sweet together and because it’s Tessa Bailey there’s lots of dirty talk and hot scenes!

Didn't love the narrators, but the female voice was much better than the males, his female voice is almost painful.

There are some pretty funny moments, some serious heartbreaking sacrifices, brothers who would literally do anything for each other, a sweet summer story!

Love it

I freaking love Rory Prince. He is the epitome of the broken boy hero. Had exterior with a sensitive and fragile interior. I'm just crazy about him. And I love Olive too. Though very mature for her age she still shows her lack of experience at times. and the Chemistry between them is intense and incredible. I thought the voice the male narrator used for Rory was just a little over the top. But I loved how overall narration. And the female narrator was a perfect Olive.

Meh

I love Tessa Bailey but this book just didn’t hit for me. I think it was a little too rushed.

Spicy sweet romance

The spice scenes in Tessa Bailey’s books are just right I could read them all day ! The only thing I didn’t care for was when the male narrator was trying to imitate the jersey accent for the male main character. His own voice is sexy!

Solid summer read

This was a quick and hot read that was perfect to kick off my summer reading! Olive and Rory are a pretty classic case of opposites attract and their story was way more fun than I anticipated it would be. I loved that Rory was a bad boy who was determined to save Olive from everything that could hurt her (including himself). Olive was such a textbook klutzy girl with a heart of gold. Both of them had pasts that impacted their relationship. The narrators did well with this book and I had a blast reading it. I’m not going to lie…I’m salivating for Jamie’s book (TTL it’s book 2).

great narrators!

This was not my fave tessa bailey story but it was a fast and easy listen!
