It Started with a Bang

Red River Romps, Book 1

De: Piper James

Narrado por: Melissa Green, Jarman Day

First, I hit him with my car. Then I hit him with an offer he couldn’t refuse.

Annabelle

My father really outdid himself this time. If he wasn’t already the worst, his newest demand surely gave him that title—if I wanted to take over the family company, I needed to get married.

Within the next six months.

He thought he had me right where he wanted me…that I’d marry one of his lackeys. A man who’d keep me in line with Dad’s vision for both me and Parker Industries.

Well, dear old Dad had another thing coming. I was no pushover, bowing to the whims of him or any man. I had a plan. And that plan’s name was Ryder Perry.

Ryder

Red River, Texas was worse than I thought it was going to be when I moved here with my brothers to renovate the old ranch home we inherited from a distant relative. Mosquitos, flies, and the lung-clogging humidity were making me miserable, and that misery was only compounded when a spoiled rotten princess slammed into my truck and had the audacity to blame me.

The next time I saw her, she offered me two things—an apology for her behavior and a million dollars…to marry her.

I thought she was drunk. Or crazy. Or maybe a little bit of both. I wasn’t sure.

But one thing was for sure—my time in Red River just got a lot more interesting.

This is a standalone romance with lots of spice and snarky humor. It is book one in a series of standalones featuring four hot brothers finding love in a small town. HEA guaranteed!

Good Story!

Annabelle and Ryder

I think the narrators did a good job. I enjoyed listening to their story. This was a cute, sweet, sexy hot story. Annabelle meets Ryder when she hits his truck. Then later sees him at a bar and propositions him to enter into a fake marriage. Loved it the interaction between the two and his brothers makes the story interesting. Throw in a conniving father makes the story entertaining.

Ryder and Annabelle...

It Started With a Bang is the first book in the Red River Romps series. It is a small town, marriage of convivence story that will have you hooked from the start. I loved watching Ryder and Annabelle's relationship develop. Their chemistry is off the charts hot. You get all the feels and witty humor throughout. This was an amazing start to a new series.

Melissa Green and Jarman Day did a great job with this story and these characters.

It Started with a Bang is book one in the Red River Romps series. I loved Belle and Ryder. This book caught my attention from the very beginning. Belle has to get married to take over her family business. She is willing to do whatever it takes. She makes a crazy offer to Ryder after bumping into him. I can't wait for the rest of this series.

Melissa Green and Jarman Day did a fantastic job narrating this book.

Fun listen

This will be the second series I'm reading/listening to by Piper James. There were times that I rolled my eyes, but on the whole, I enjoyed this book. The brothers made me smile and laugh at times. My heart went out for them all at times. A fake marriage that ends with a great HEA. I look forward to more of the brother's stories!

The narrators were good. They had the audiobook rolling like a movie in my head. Good performances.
