A Proposal They Can't Refuse

De: Natalie Caña

Narrado por: Valentina Ortiz

“Utterly charming… A Proposal They Can't Refuse is a surefire winner!” —Mia Sosa, USA Today bestselling author of The Worst Best Man

Natalie Caña turns up the heat, humor and heart in this debut rom-com about a Puerto Rican chef and an Irish American whiskey distiller forced into a fake engagement by their scheming octogenarian grandfathers.

Kamilah Vega is desperate to convince her family to update their Puerto Rican restaurant and enter it into the Fall Foodie Tour. With the gentrification of their Chicago neighborhood, it's the only way to save the place. The fly in her mofongo—her blackmailing abuelo says if she wants to change anything in his restaurant, she'll have to marry the one man she can't stand: his best friend’s grandson.

Liam Kane spent a decade working to turn his family’s distillery into a contender. But just as he and his grandfather are on the verge of winning a national competition, Granda hits him with a one-two punch: he has cancer and has his heart set on seeing Liam married before it’s too late. And Granda knows just the girl…Kamilah Vega.

If they refuse, their grandfathers will sell the building that houses both their businesses. With their futures on the line, Kamilah and Liam plan to outfox the devious duo, faking an engagement until they both get what they want. But soon, they find themselves tangled up in more than either of them bargained for.

Wepa!

This book was just what I needed and I didn’t want it to end. Excellent story and narration! I really hope we get some more books with Abuelo’s meddling and to watch this family grow.

Fun story, Great Narration!

Story was great and I loved the switching back and forth between English and Spanish! I can’t wait for Natalie Caña to come out with another book!
I thoroughly enjoyed Valentina Ortiz’s narration. She did a beautiful job conveying personally and multiple accents! Best audiobook I’ve listened to in a long time!

Cute and I love the accents.

Cute story premise. Two completely different personalities and cultures mesh together perfectly! Love story with a twist!

Great story

A story with all the feels. It was a fun listen. Loved the accents. It was a easy to love story.

Escúchalo o Léelo y Ámalo! Listen/read and love it

Wow! Liam and Mila are a mess of complicated, wonderful feelings. A friendship burnt out of fear and a love hidden away- how could you not be invested!?!

Family drama, conniving octogenarians, and good old fashioned blackmail cement the Vegas (and Liam) in your head and your heart. Never underestimate old men on a mission to see their families happy. By happy, I mean happily ever after!

Natalie Caña wrote a fun and entertaining story with so much character it explodes off the page. Valentina Ortiz brings it to life in an impressive performance! She was able to really bring out the differences in characters both with their tone and accents. and her Irish accent...very believable, I kept looking for Killian to pop up and pinch me...or was that just wishful thinking!

I loved the entire experience and will definitely be looking forward to more Vega drama!

Refreshing

this book is like a breath of fresh air, so fun lightweight, perfect story if you're looking for something entertaining, if you love love, and enjoy ROM COMS.
the story itself is simple and predictable, but the author did a great job and is not tiring as other books of the genra. I'd read more books of hers

Cute, Light, Funny

Feel Good Book, if you're looking something light and cute. Good Story line, predictable, but still cute

Miss English

The story was nice. The narrator spoke a little fast, so I slowed it down to point nine. However, I don’t speak Spanish so when there was Spanish throughout the book, I had to wait for translation. If there was no translation, I lost that part of the story.

Fun Rom-Com

I enjoyed the ethnic side of the story. The book made me want to try out the food for myself. 🤗

New fave

I was lucky enough to get this gem of a story as a daily deal. I wasn’t sure what to expect as I haven’t listened to this author before. I was pleasantly surprised to find the story was very sweet. Even though I didn’t understand some of the Spanish sprinkled into the story it didn’t spoil the excellent narration. Thoroughly enjoyed this one
