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 😘

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.

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.

Love

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

Good things come to those who wait...

Or so Alex was taught by his grandpa. But you shouldn't wait to listen to this because you will love it! This was my first Tia Louise story, but now I want to hear all about Alex's brothers, too. The story is sweet, funny, and heart -warming. Alex and Cass both experienced loss while they were young/teenagers, which makes it all the more special and satisfying when they find love get their HEA. Connor Crais and Kirsten Leigh (she was new to me) both delivered exceptional performances. They really brought these characters and this small town to life. This is one of my favorite audiobooks that I have listened to this year.

Loved this story!!!!

What a great story line……and the male narrator. Oh my word was he good. I will definitely be listening to this one again in the future.

4.5 stars for me!
Loved going back to the little town of Eureka!
Cass Dixon and Alex Stone has always secretly had a thing for each other ever since Alex came across her singing in the ocean when they were teens but there were a few years between them.
Fast forward years later and Cass is in town to plan her bestie, Britt's wedding. She not only ends up being Alex's live in nanny but upon running into her ex, Drake, she is now somehow Alex's fake fiancé!
Things quickly get heated between the two and feelings are brewing but then of course there's a sudden turn in events that abruptly cools things off!
Loved how good Cass is with little Pinky and Pinky is such a little spitfire!!
If you love romance with Nanny/boss, fake fiancé and second chance vibes then check this one out!! Great read!!

Wasn’t better than “A Little Taste”, but still overall good, I can’t wait to see if Adam and Piper have a story, narration was on point as well

Fabulous Story & Listen🎧 Enthralling & Heartfelt!

This is a fabulous romance novel, a charming small-town, single dad/nanny, fake engagement romance that is captivating from start to end. I knew this book was going to be something special as soon as I started the prologue, a story that will stay with me for a very long time. I adored the lead characters, Cassidy “Cass” Dixon and Alex Stone, as well as his daughter Pinkie, an adorable four-year-old who steals the scenes and your heart, too. Cassidy and Alex first met when they were in their teens and it was an impressionable meeting, one neither will ever forget, especially Alex. Cass had just moved to Eureka to live with her Aunt Carol and Alex had just left his Pop's funeral. His Pop was his mentor and the person he looked up to the most. The story fast forwards sixteen years to the present, Alex is a single dad and doing well with the brewery. Cass is still trying to figure out her place in life and has tried out several careers, but is looking for the one that will be the most fulfilling. Right now she is planning her friend Britt’s wedding to Aiden Stone, which puts her back on Alex’s radar. After Alex discovers that his mother, who watches his daughter while he is at work, is planning on going on vacation, he must find a nanny as soon as possible, and he knows exactly who he wants, and not jsut as a nanny, but that will have to wait. When Cass sees her ex boyfriend, Drake, at the wedding, she slips and says she is with Alex, and Drake assumes they were engaged. Alex goes along with it, assuming Drake would leave Eureka soon, except he doesn’t, so they keep up the facade Cass falls in as the nanny beautifully gets along well with Pinkie and all is right in Alex’s world. Until Pinkie’s mother, who left her when she was just six-months-old decides she wants to be a mother and is back in their lives. This wonderfully plotted story has the perfect balance of drama, charming wit and humor, heartwarming moments, heartfelt emotions and steamy romance. Tia Louise, thank you for another amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride. 

🎧📚🎧 As for the superb narration, Connor Crais and Kirsten Leigh were amazing at bringing the characters and their story to life. They understood who they were portraying, giving each voice that was fitting to that character’s persona. I loved how they took each role, ran with it and made it their own, sounding believable and just as I pictured the characters would sound. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. You could feel how much heart they put into their work as they captured all the characters’ emotions through their performance. These entertaining storytellers are versatile voice artists and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another amazing listen.
