Mr. Heartbreaker

The Nest, Book 1

By: Piper Rayne

Narrated by: Sean Masters, Erin Mallon, Connor Crais, JF Harding, Troy Duran, Teddy Hamilton, CJ Bloom

I made a deal with my brother a long time ago to never date his teammates.

Technically, Rowan Landry, the hot as hell center for the Chicago Falcons, is no longer my brother’s teammate. Or his best friend. Their college days are long behind them, and they barely talk now.

Also, I’m not dating him—we’re just sleeping together. There’s a difference.

Except there’s not a lot of sleeping going on, and neither one of us wants to stop what we’re doing.

It’s all fun and games until my brother is traded to the Falcons, because Rowan doesn’t know I’m the new goalie’s little sister. Oops.

Good Story

Another hit by Piper Rayne! Love their stories. They never have a bad book. This seems like it will be another great series.

this was so good

This was my first Piper Rayne, and I am hooked. I will be going down a rabbit hole now. The story was terrific, and I can't wait to meet the rest of the guys in future books. The narrators (all of them) did such a fantastic job bringing the characters to life. I love a full-cast audiobook. They always bring more life to the story!

Strong up front and continued throughout!

Plot: 4📍
Spice: 2.5🔥
Overall: 4.5⭐
Narration: 5🎧

The dual narration between the MCs was absolutely amazing! And the audiobook also had a full supporting cast of narrators for such a fun experience! The fact that Piper Rayne has secured the voices from the rest of the series UPFRONT means we'll be hearing our fave guys and gals throughout the whole series and I CAN'T WAIT!!! I also love that they're able to go that extra bit and splice in the different voices throughout the chapters, regardless of the POV - if it's Leigh's POV but Rowan's speaking (or one of the side characters!) it's THAT voice actor’s voice. Absolute perfection!

Loved Ky/Leigh and Rowan! I usually don't care for the miscommunication trope but this one worked!

Leigh knows what she wants and GOES for it! Good girl! She's smart, strong, a go-getter.

Rowan, ugh! I just want to wrap that man up in a big ole hug! What a dreamy, swoony, HAWT hockey player!

I did feel the whole “Heartbreaker” piece didn't fit as well as it could have. Why was he a Heartbreaker? There's some hints to this but it's not clear or obvious. Minor point, but not a deal breaker. And overall, this is still an incredibly enjoyable story!

Can't wait for the rest of the series!!!!

Loved

RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
SPICE: 🔥🔥🔥

Okay, but first… let me plead with you that if you are able to listen to this on audio… DO IT! it’s full cast narration and it’s everything!

But if you can’t listen, this book is Avery bit as good being eyeball read as well! I love this new series! I’m so hooked on the guys from the NEST and Rowan and Kyleigh started off this series the right way.

🩵 One Night Stand
🩵 Professional Hockey Player
🩵 Teammate’s Sister
🩵 Hidden Identity
🩵 He Falls First

Kyleigh and Rowan’s meet cute was a ton of steamy fun, and I was hooked on them right away. It was meant to be one night, and then it turned into so much more. Only problem… he doesn’t know she is his teammate’s little sister.

This book was swoony, spicy in all the right places and Rowan was a top tier book boyfriend. I loved Kyleighs growth and journey throughout this book and was screaming when her actual identity came out!

The side characters added so much to this story and I need them all! This was a fun, quick read (listen) and I enjoyed every moment of it.

Wow

The narration is fantastic and the story is so full of fascinating twists and delicious spice!

Amazing!!!

Reading and listening to this book was pretty amazing. I really enjoyed their story. How Rowan and Leigh fall in love for each other is something else, I love it. The chemistry between them is explosive and still we have some sweet swooning moments. The drama family sometimes made me crazy but it was well developed in the story. Rowan is perfect I love him. Kyleigh is a free spirit but with Rowan she can find herself wanting and focusing on herself. Can’t wait to read more about The Nest series specially Henry. The narrators performance was absolutely amazing, I loved all of them.

Mr. Not So Heartbreaker

I loved this book! From start to finish! The banter, the chemistry, and the found/made family that is made in The Nest. So so good!

Great Narration

I have mixed feelings about this book. First let me say I am a huge Piper fan and love all her books. I loved the side characters in the book and the narration was off the charts. it was the reason I continued to listen. I love steamy romance but not when it is a third of the book. I didn't feel any connection outside of sex. I don't think the two every really had a conversation the entire book. I like a little more substance in my characters than just sex and the FMC was whiney at times. However, I am continuing with the next books in the series. I am excited to hear Henry's and Tweety.

Narrator Tone

The story was fantastic. I have only one opinion about this story. Please, please, quit writing parts where the female character has to sing sing through the story. The male character never disappoints. I have a list of story’s to pass on if certain narrator has a part in it. No sing song characters for me.

Short and cute!

Short and cute story! There is a lot of 🌶️🌶️🌶️, but it doesn’t take away from the storyline. Grumpy Rowan and Sunshine Kylie are instantly attracted to each other but they both have secrets that threaten to destroy something that started out as casual but slowly becomes more.

Super easy read with lots of comical banter. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series!
