Make It Sweet

De: Kristen Callihan

Narrado por: Ava Erickson, Jacob Morgan

From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Callihan comes a charming, emotional romance about redefining dreams and discovering unlikely love along the way.

Life for Emma isn’t good. The world knows her as Princess Anya on Dark Castle, but then her character gets the axe - literally. The cherry on top is finding her boyfriend in bed with another woman. She needs a break, and sanctuary comes in the form of Rosemont, a gorgeous estate in California promising rest and relaxation.

Then she meets the owner’s equally gorgeous grandson, ex-hockey player and current recluse Lucian Osmond, and she sees her own pain and yearning reflected in his eyes.

He’s charming when he wants to be but also secretive and gruff, with protective walls as thick as Emma’s own. Despite a growing attraction, they avoid each other.

But then there’s an impromptu nighttime skinny-dip, and Lucian’s luscious homemade tarts and cream cakes start arriving at Emma’s door, tempting her to taste life again...

In trying to stay apart, they only grow closer - and their broken pieces just might fit together and make them whole.

This audiobook was exactly what I needed right now... Funny, romantic, sweet and with a great narration!

I loved the banter and playfulness between Emma and Lucian and also how good their connection was.
They put a smile on my face at every turn and I couldn't stop listening.

I just wish it could've been a bit less predictable...

Grumpy Hockey player meets His Match

Make It Sweet is the perfect blend of heart, humor, healing, and romance. Kristen Callihan delivers an unforgettable love story between two beautifully broken people who never expected to find comfort — or love — in each other.

Lucian and Emma are the definition of an unlikely couple. Lucian is a grumpy, closed-off former hockey star dealing with the crushing weight of a career-ending injury and a very public downfall. Emma is pure sunshine — a talented baker recovering from a painful personal breakup and a professional betrayal that left her questioning everything she worked for. Their banter is absolutely delicious — witty, sharp, and laugh-out-loud funny. Every interaction crackles with tension, sarcasm, and undeniable chemistry.

Their paths cross at Lucian’s grandmother’s countryside estate, where Emma is hiding out to reflect, heal, and rebuild her confidence. What starts as reluctant coexistence slowly turns into friendship, comfort, and something much deeper. Watching these two navigate their personal heartbreaks, career challenges, and emotional scars is incredibly moving. They don’t just fall in love — they help each other rediscover their worth.

Lucian’s gruff exterior hides a tender heart, and Emma’s warmth and resilience make her impossible not to adore. Together, they’re magic. Their relationship unfolds naturally, with plenty of emotional depth, slow-burn tension, and swoon-worthy moments.

This story is cozy, heartfelt, funny, and deeply romantic. It’s about second chances, finding yourself again, and opening your heart when you least expect it. Make It Sweet is everything I want in a romance — and more. A truly satisfying, feel-good read that stays with you long after the last page.
