Chick Magnet

De: Emma Barry

Narrado por: CJ Bloom, Aaron Shedlock

One of the New York Times’ Best Romances of 2023.

From Emma Barry comes a clever romance about a hot veterinarian and a chicken-loving influencer who can’t help but ruffle each other’s feathers.

Nicole Jones needs a fresh start. “Chick Nic” to millions of internet fans, the social media star and her flock of chickens bask in the spotlight—until she’s publicly dumped by a YouTuber for clout. She has no choice but to round up her birds and move on.

But when one of her hens has an emergency, Nic gets her first taste of her new stomping grounds—and it isn’t good. Veterinarian Will Lund is wildly attractive, yes, but he’s also surly. In fact, he comes right out and calls her a menace for parading her chickens on social media.

As neighbors, Nic and Will can’t exactly avoid each other. Then again, maybe they don’t want to. The two can’t deny their smoldering attraction, and it isn’t long before late-night confessions lead to backyard shenanigans.

Is this the start of a neighborly relationship—or could something more be hatching?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Listeners will be delighted by narrators CJ Bloom's and Aaron Shedlock's snappy, animated performances. Full of heart, humor, and slow-bum steam.”—Library Journal, starred review

“CJ Bloom and Aaron Shedlock work together wonderfully to enhance this fun contemporary romance.… Bloom is full of energy and compassion; she uses no-nonsense pacing and provides a lower register when warranted. Shedlock adds the swoon with a slight Southern drawl. All in all, this is a fun romp with a great heart.”—AudioFile Magazine

“Chick Magnet has one of the best epilogues I’ve ever read, and it’s a perfect demonstration of why writers keep going back to small-town settings. Because underneath all the cupcakes and cruel memories, there is one great promise at the heart of a small-town romance: there’s always a first time for second chances.”—New York Times

sweet romance

This is a sweet story. There's a little heat. I usually prefer a lot of spice in my romance selection, but I did enjoy this story. CJ Bloom is one of my favorite narrators and always does a great job!

Not my cup of tea.

As chick lit goes, I suppose it’s alright. But it is not my cup of tea. I had a friend recommend it, so I thought I’d give it a try. It’s just not for me.

Growly neighbors

Thoughtful, funny, tender and swoony. I love listening to Emma Barry’s quirky and vulnerable lovers go from combusting in lust to untangling their feelings for each other!

Sweet story - loved it!

I AM a veterinarian and I was so impressed by the quality of the author’s research! I was delighted by the whole book.

Cute story

The story of a small town vet and the viral blogger the chicken lady is really cute.
I felt it was a little long and could have used some editing but overall it was an enjoyable listen. The narration was very well done.
