Showstopper

Vino and Veritas

De: Regina Kyle

Narrado por: Cooper North, Iggy Toma

I swore I wouldn’t do this again. Mix sports, school, and sex. But right now the only thing standing between me and the NHL is six feet of frenemy packed into a pair of form-fitting jeans that have me thinking all kinds of things I shouldn’t. Mostly how to get him out of them.

I don’t just want Kolby. I need him. Because I’ve got to pass this theater class—yeah, I said theater—if I’m going to keep my spot on the team. When tutoring sessions turn into dates-not-dates over Shipley Cider at Vino and Veritas, I realize it’s going to be harder than I thought to keep my hands on my stick and off of Kolby. Worse, I think I might be falling for him. But I’m not ready for that. I want to keep this thing between us on the down-low for now.

But Kolby hates secrets. Especially his own . . .

Very enjoyable listen

Good story. Insta love. very entertaining and definitely keeps your attention. well written and great narrating team Iggy Toma and Cooper North brought this story and its characters to life. well worth the credit and your time to listen.

Sports..and young love

Difficult histories...family...relationships....young love..plenty of chemistry, which I could feel. Adam and Kolby worked well together. I enjoyed the narrator also.

Good story and performance

I liked the storyline very much. I loved the performers’ storytelling as well.

My only complaint is how everything goes down at V&V. In my opinion, Kolby was very much to blame for how the secret got out and even if Adam didn’t want to take his calls because he was dealing with the fallout, it’s Adam’s choice how the story gets told afterwards. Adam shouldn’t have to beg forgiveness for not giving Kolby a chance to explain.

must listen: Improv to pucker loving

Okay I also love this story as well.
The two main characters are so sweet . I must state that I totally agree with Adam that there was enough room on the piece 🪵 wood for Jack to have survived that would have made it a true love story, but that has nothing to do with the fact that this book was a young love affair. I do wish we received a little more interaction from the families to see how that relationship progressed. still a must listen 🎶

Don’t want this series to end!

As this beautiful series starts coming to a close, my heart is still wound up tight with all the characters of V & V. Colby and Adam are at the top of my favs. Who doesn’t love a good jock falls for the nerd romance? I absolutely fell hard for these too! On to the next one!!! These will all be rereads/listens for this gal!

Good narration. Decent story.

I enjoyed the narration by Cooper North and Iggy Toma. They did a nice job of bringing two interesting characters to life. The story had some interesting moments, but I kept getting hung up on certain details. I was a college athlete. I knew many college athletes. Yes, they have a reputation for consuming an above average amount of alcohol. Some of that reputation is warranted. Most is not. College athletes on scholarship who want to go pro do not regularly drink beer after practice or games. Just no.

I liked parts of the plot, but the character reactions kept giving me whiplash. I felt like I was in the middle of a daytime soap opera where the characters can only respond to any event with melodrama. One minute they are in love, and the next minute they have experienced the worst betrayal of their lives.

If you like romance and melodrama, you will probably appreciate the story.

Acting It Out

I love the humor that you find in this story from start to finish. Both men have great whit and fun personalities. This story is a little bit of everything from long lost relatives to sport scandals. This story was a wonderful listen after a really hard day.

Well written

Each book in this V&V series is so amazing in their own way plus it’s written by different authors which I find super interesting. The characters are well rounded and the stories entertaining! Check out this series you won’t be sorry!!!

so sweet

this was a sweet and easy read
hearing Iggy with Cooper was great and now I need more audiobooks with these two narrators together

Kolby and Adam…

Love Cooper North and Iggy Toma….great narration team.

I did feel again that the love was rather fast especially with the two fall outs, but I did like the characters and storyline.
