Finding Home

De: Lauren Rowe

Narrado por: Andi Arndt, Sean Masters

I’m Caleb “C-Bomb” Baumgarten, the bad boy drummer of Red Card Riot. After tragedy strikes, I get the bright idea to hire my daughter’s remaining lifeline, her “Auntie Aubbey,” as my live-in nanny in her small town. I’m determined not to give in to my white-hot attraction to Aubrey, since I need her to certify my sobriety and testify on my behalf at an upcoming custody hearing. But you know what they say about best laid plans, right? Yeah. My bad.

Finding Home is a standalone, small town, single dad rockstar romance with deep feels, suspense, spice, no cheating, no third act breakup, and a happily ever after.

Life has been throwing curve balls at Caleb Baumgarten left and right. He's in mandatory rehab for trashing a hotel room when he found out his mother passed. Then he finds out the mother of his child, Claudia, passed and her father is vying for legal and physical custody. There's no way that man will get anywhere near two-year-old Raine if he can help it. It takes a lot of negotiation with Aubrey Capshaw, Claudia's best friend, to agree to help him out as sobriety coach and Raine's nanny. The latter is a no-brainer for Aubrey. She's been in Raine's life. Caleb, also known as C-Bomb professionally as the drummer for Red Card Riot, needs to keep up with rehab, get to know his daughter, and fight for custody. While Aubrey was a calm and steady presence, she was also part atomic when it came to dealing with Caleb. There's a lot of grieving in this story, but there's also healing and loving and moving forward. Aubrey and her parents give Caleb and Raine the support they need, allowing father and daughter to bond and heal.

Andi Arndt and Sean Masters brought the characters and story to life. The duet narration really brought out the personalities and quirks of the characters and gave the story a multi-dimensional feel. Kudos to the stellar narrators!

I received an advance copy of the audiobook at my request and voluntarily left this review.

An awesome duet narration!

This is the story of Caleb, the drummer for Red Card Riot, and Aubrey. They both love the little girl, Raine, that he fathered and want to do right by her. Caleb hasn't always done the right things in his life and there were some hoops and learning curves for him. He had to be a model citizen to prove to the courts he was fit to take care of Raine, but he was also fighting an attraction to Aubrey (his baby mama's best friend). It was so sweet watching him learn how to be a dad and interact with Raine.

I loved all the tropes the author has in this book.

Rockstar romance
Age gap
Nanny/Caretaker
Single dad
Forced proximity

The audiobook is narrated in duet by Sean Masters and Andi Arndt. Sean's deep, growly voice was perfect for Caleb. Perfect casting. Andi is wonderful, as usual. Raine's sweet baby voice was so adorable, too.

Thank you to Home Cooked Books for the advance listeners copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

LISTEN NOW!!

I almost passed up on this listening to this book as it’s not my usual trope, but I’m so glad I didn’t. Everything about this story is amazing - it kept me interested the entire time, the narrators were both great and I’m sooo sad it’s over. Definitely worth every penny. Can’t wait to listen to more from this author!

Another amazing story and fabulous read by Lauren

Finding Home is an angsty , rock star romance by Author Lauren Rowe. Her books are filled with deep emotional turmoil but always give you the HEA you desire.....Let me warn you, you will go through the wringer to get there but it is SOOOOOO worth the tears and headache.

"I’m Caleb Baumgarten, the “bad boy” drummer of Red Card Riot. The world knows me as C-Bomb, but I assure you, it’s Lil Miss Rule Follower, Aubrey Capshaw, who’s the human equivalent of an atomic bomb."

****I listened to this on audiobook. The narrators are Andi Arndt and Sean Masters. I have listened to so many of their books and they just get better and better with each performance. The talent these 2 narrators hold is immense. Their voices are perfection and their presentation was on point. Sean has that gravelly voice that was perfect for C-Bomb. I could imagine him behind a set of drums doing his thing....And Andi as Aubrey was beautiful. The emotion she shows in her voices really place you in the scene and it feels like you are actually going through what the characters do. If you are an audiobook lover, pick this one up and be prepared to be amazed!

Lauren Rowe has another win on her hand. this is the 5th book I have read of hers. Each book is filled with angsty goodness that will have you gripping your book or kindle. There is so much depth with each character and you learn something new each turn of the page. Caleb is layered so deep that I wasn't sure I would see all of him but rest assured, Lauren has our backs and gives us all that we need in his character. And Aubrey....She is just the best. So strong and her love is never-ending. If you want a story that will make you feel, pick up a Lauren Rowe book. She is the absolute best at making you laugh one minute and cry the next.
