Length: 8 hrs and 25 mins

Publisher's summary

I never said I was engaged to Alex Stone (a.k.a. the richest man in Eureka).... My douchey ex just assumed I was, and I didn’t correct him.

You see, I was having a moment. I was out of work, out of money, and Alex had just offered me a lifeline by hiring me to be his live-in nanny for a month. So when Drake the douche starts going on about what a hot mess I am at my best friend’s wedding, I kind of let him believe we were a thing. I never said the word fiancé, and I definitely never expected Alex to play along.

Alex Stone is one of those list-topping billionaire businessmen types. He’s controlled, formal, and never makes a bad decision. He’s also tall, dark, and brutally handsome, with smoky hazel eyes, wavy brown hair, and a bod that will melt your brain. (A detail I happen to know after accidentally catching him just out of the shower naked.)

The plan is he’ll secretly be my fake fiancé for the night, no harm done. But when the douche stays longer than the wedding, our “engagement” stops being a secret. And when Alex decides there are things we should know how to do if we’re engaged (like making out and sleeping together), my lie really gets out of control.

Because it’s one thing to be fake engaged to the hottest, richest man in town who also happens to be your live-in boss. It’s a little twist to find yourself falling in love with him.

A Little Twist is a steamy small-town single-dad/nanny romance with a fake engagement twist. No cheating. No cliff-hangers.

Single Dad / Fake Relationship

I read the first book of this series when it first came out. I finally got to listen to this one and I am so glad that I did.

This audio was done so well and by two of my favorite narrators.

I loved the characters and story of this one. Alex Stone is a hot single dad with the cutest kid ever!
Cass is a fiery woman that I love... She is trying to figure out what to do with her life. Alex has the perfect solution.

These two have great chemistry, and I felt like I was in the story with them. There is little drama. This is a good heartwarming read with a few bumps.

Now on to the next in the series....

A Little Twist

This was a good 🎧book with some drama, angst, single dad with hot nanny(former childhood friend). The narration was okay it would’ve been pretty close to perfect if they had made it a “Duet Narration” listen instead. It has a nice HEA but it felt a little rushed toward the end...It needs more smexy times.💋Is it worth the credit? Yes it is 😘

Tia’s writing is fab // perfect narration

I adore this book, the secret mutual pining, the fake relationship and Cass bonding with Pinky is absolute perfection.

Alex and Cass are faking a relationship because of a guy from her past. But turns out….there have been *feeeeeeeeelings* for a while.

Cass is also nannying Pinky (Alex’s daughter) and their relationship and bonding was just so dang perfect and heartwarming.

This whole book was perfection. I hybrid read and listened to it and the narrators did an amazing job!

It was ok

I disliked the ex so much the fact that its not resolved and will carry onto the 3rd book means I will not be reading the next one.

Fake becomes real

A Little Twist follows A Little Taste where we are back in Eureka, South Carolina with the Stone brothers. These are standalone books that have the same characters intertwined. This one gives us Cassidy and Alex's story, and it begins when our couple were young and innocent and carries to the present where Cass feels her life isn't going anywhere, and Alex is juggling a daughter and a growing business. When a misunderstanding occurs with Cass' ex then the "twist" begins.

I love the stories this author weaves with her words but I think this one may be my favorite yet. This small town has all the quirks of a small town as well as all the love you feel when you know your neighbors. I could picture Pinky, Alex's daughter, and her sassy ways. I could feel the emotions Cass felt about her family. I even felt the struggle Alex felt of always being in charge and trying to control all situations around him. This book has great side characters and a great story with a mystery that lingers from book one to this one. Small-town shenanigans are running wide open. This book also has a message that is cleverly woven into the story about family and belonging. I enjoyed it so much and am looking forward to the third book which will be about Adam Stone and his friend Piper. I highly recommend this book. You don't have to have read A Little Taste to read this one but it was also really good and I recommend it as well. Britt and Aiden have a great story as well that continues in this book so check it out.

Connor Crais, and Kirsten Leigh have the perfect voices for Alec and Cass and they do a great job of bringing this story together. Loved listening to both of them.

Sweet, Touching and Sizzling Romance!

I really enjoyed this delightful small town romance. Alex and Cass meet when they were young teens, both needing someone to understand what they were going through. Alex had such a strong reaction, he needed to put distance between them, confusing Cass and breaking her heart. Now years later, Alex is a successful business owner and a single father raising an adorable little girl, Penelope (Pinky). Cass has tried and mastered many things, but still trying to find her passion. When a douchey ex boyfriend shows up making trouble, Cass finds herself talking first, thinking later. Alex is all too ready to act as her fake fiancé and getting to know the woman who has always held his interest. When he suddenly needs a live in nanny, Cass is perfect for the job since she needs one! Cass and Pinky are so great together which makes Alex fall even harder for Cass. The more Alex and Cass get to really know each, the more they want their fake relationship to be real. But when people from their past show up and cause complications, will Alex and Cass be willing to fight for what they are building, or will it all come crashing down, breaking all their hearts? I fell so hard for Alex, Cass and Pinky, and loved the sweet family they were making together. I loved how perfect Alex and Cass were together with their shared love of family, friends, and community, and their chemistry was off the charts!
Connor Crais, Kirsten Leigh did an incredible job bringing these characters and story to life. They easily delivered all the wit, emotion, and steam, making me fall even harder for Alex, Cass and Pinky.
This is a sweet, emotional, and steamy story of forgiveness, healing, and learning to trust and find that forever love. I really adored everything about this sweet, touching, and sizzling story.

Love

I loved the love for a child that is not your own. I loved the narration it was so well done.

Perfect story, perfect narration

Audiobook: Narrators - Connor Crais and Kirsten Leigh

This was a fun book to listen to! With all the great banter between this couple and the cute addition of Pinky added into the mix, I found myself laughing and smiling pretty much from beginning to end. The steam level was intense and this pair of narrators did a fantastic job showcasing the chemistry the hero and heroine experienced. This is low angst as well which makes this a perfect feel good read.

Outstanding Storyline

The story was very unexpected. I'm interested in who's putting up those signs, I definitely have a theory. Sweetly Romantic, Fairytale Like HEA, Real World Traumatic Issues.

Wonderful story

I absolutely loved listening to A Little Twist and have already re-listened to it a few times. Connor Crais and Kirsten Leigh were fantastic narrating this story and bringing all the characters to life. I thoroughly enjoyed Alex and Cass together and Pinky was just adorable and I loved her interactions with her dad and Mama Cass. This has become one of my favorites.
