Beard Science

Winston Brothers, Book 3

De: Penny Reid

Narrado por: Joy Nash, Chris Brinkley

Make a deal with the devil and you might get what you want, but will it be what you need?

Jennifer Sylvester wants one thing, and that one thing is not to be Tennessee's reigning Banana Cake Queen. Ever the perpetual good girl and obedient daughter, Jennifer is buckling under the weight of her social media celebrity, her mother's ambitions, and her father's puritanical mandates. Jennifer is officially desperate.

And desperate times call for Cletus Winston.

Cletus Winston is a puzzle wrapped in a mystery covered in conundrum sauce, and now he's in a pickle. Despite being convinced of his own omniscience, extortion by the exalted Banana Cake Queen of Green Valley has taken him completely by surprise. So what's a maniacal mastermind to do?

Likely, the last thing you expect.

Beard Science is the third book in the Winston Brothers series, is a full-length romantic comedy novel, and can be heard as a standalone.

Southern Sex Appeal

I have loved getting lost in this sexy series from Penny Reid. I had several out loud chuckles at the innuendo humor, and puns, which are not limited to the titles. Chris Reid has a way of changing the depth of his baritone to differentiate between the various Winston brothers. The southern drawls, poignant famous quotes and intelligent conversations are so beguiling that I can’t wait to start the next book in the series.

Loved it!

I laughed and cried but mostly laughed. So many corn dog characters. Hadn’t read the 2 previous books from the series but I wasn’t lost a bit. Treat yourself to the best time ever.

My favorite one of series

🎧 AUDIO REVIEW 🎧

AUDIO - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
BOOK - 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I thought I wouldn’t enjoy cletus as much as I did but I loved him from start to finish.

The way he was with his family made me laugh and the book kept me entertained all the way through.

I loved getting to know all the family through Cletus guys and I loved getting catch up of previous couple and how the story over lap but in a way you didn’t have to read the last one.

The audio for this book was also brilliant! Loved it!

Better Than a Moist Banana Cake!

*Avoid the "normals"* (sage advice from Ashley Winston). While this entire series is beyond stellar, Cletus and Jenn are without a doubt in their very own galaxy, creating their own "interesting skies."

I love Penny Reid comedies for so many reasons, but they can all be boiled down to the masterpieces known as her characters. They are always unique, always interesting, and usually have a streak of brilliance somewhere, even if they tend to keep their light hidden from most. Some of her characters may be sheltered, abused, beaten down or otherwise led to believe they are less than others around them, yet they always have an inner strength and formidable hearts, along with good ol' southern fortitude. Both the men and the women are strong in their own ways. They're also both very vulnerable and very real. Well, most of them are real. When it comes to the Winston brothers, they're a bit more in the surreal category...especially Cletus. Even Jenn describes him as "dangerous." She sees him as someone who flies under the radar, always watching people and taking notice of what they're doing so that he can have evidence for later use. She's not wrong. He's a devious cuss, but he generally uses his skills for good.

Cletus and Jenn are the best in series so far, although I think stiff competition may still be coming. There's so much to love about their story with it's touches of innocence, unruly blackmailing, sibling rivalry, and bittersweet bakery puns. One moment I'd find myself discriminately chuckling at some highbrow, intelligent humor and before I knew what hit me I'd be giggling like a middle schooler at some seriously lowbrow bodily humor. Gotta' love it. I blame Cletus and his sausage.

Winston Brothers❤️

I loved this book! It went by so fast! From the start to the finish I throughly enjoyed it. Can’t wait for book 4!

I LOVE CLETUS

Another AMAZING book by Penny Reid! Joy Nash is by far my favorite narrator. She does an amazing job.

i absolutely love this series, and this is the best book of the Winston brothers. love cletus and jen, from start to finish the book is clever and makes me laugh. wonderful love story with lots of other stories twined into it. joy nash and chris Brinkley are so great as well. couldn't give more praise.

Such fun!

I've loved all of the Winston Brothers series so far, but Beard Science was my favorite. Cletus is such a quirky character, to experience his journey into falling in love is so much fun! He and Jennifer have such unique love story with so many awkward moments along the way. I was completely amused and enchanted with their story!
