Pluck and Play:
I really liked this story. Riley comes to the aid of Curtis more than one time and the two strike up a friendship and then a relationship. I liked how protective Riley is of Curtis. It was good to hear from characters from other books in this series (don’t worry if you haven’t read them, you won’t be lost) and the way they came to Curtis’s aid was great. This is really a fun series!
Double Scoop:
Ah, now we get the romance of Patrick, the owner of With A Kick. This story literally starts off with a bang. It’s a great age gap story. This was a bit angsty, but not too much. I’d been waiting to read Patrick’s story and this one didn’t disappoint.
Lee works for Patrick and there’s a bit of an age difference. Neither one of them seems to be brave enough to let the other know how they feel. When something bad happens at the shop Patrick finally begins to see that he shouldn’t waste time worrying about small things like Lee being younger and working for him.

Like With a Kick Collection No. 1, these stories are delightfully British and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to all of the different voices done by Joel Leslie; his “cowboy” voice made me smile. His audio book performances are among my favorites; he helped me learn to appreciate audiobooks after thinking I wouldn’t like them. His performance of these two stories is perfect.
A complimentary copy of this audiobook was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author.
