Manhattan

Becker Brothers, Book 3

De: Kandi Steiner

Narrado por: Chelsea Hatfield, Edward Thomas

Manhattan is a stand-alone, small-town country romance in the Becker Brothers Series.

Everyone knows not to fall in love with your best friend.

But when your best friend is Michael Becker, it’s impossible not to.

He’s everything our town knows a Becker brother to be: devastatingly handsome, charming as a thief, and the icing on the cake - a sentimental musician who’s never without his guitar.

And he was mine. At least, that’s what I’d convinced myself.

Our bond was born in elementary school, strengthened by circumstance and the promise to always be there for each other, no matter what. And the best thing about my life was being friends with Michael Becker.

Until it was the worst.

I watched him fall in love with someone else, and helped patch him back up when she left him behind. But when he drops the bomb that he’s moving to New York, I realize it’s my last chance to tell him how I feel. And I ask him to make one more promise.

One summer. One list of adventures to remind him that our small town has more to offer than memories of the girl who left him behind.

One last chance to tell him I’m in love with him.

And I’m just dumb enough to believe that maybe he could love me, too.

Sweet

I love this series but this one was not my favorite however still a good story. Predictable. I had to doc the performance because the male narrator did not annunciate his words. Inportin= important It didn't ruin the book for me but it's uncommon to hear a narrator not annunciate.

AMAZING!!!

I have loved this series! This book was the most amazing of them all! I have never listened to this author before but definitely a fan now! This book gives you all the feels! I cried, laughed and swooned! A favorite for sure!

Time to binge read a new author!

5 stars!

My first book by this author and I’m so ready to binge read her backlist!

I started with book 3 and apparently there is an ongoing mystery throughout this series regarding the death of the Becker brothers’ father. Despite starting on book 3, I didn’t feel lost at all.

Manhattan was the perfect best friends to lovers story! Fresh out of high school, Michael Becker is determined to leave his small town and head to the Big Apple (New York) in order to escape memories of his first love. Kiley, Miley’s best friend, has been secretly in love with him her whole life and is determined to convince him to stay.

What follows is a summer of adventures, trips down memory lane, revelations, and romantic love. Throw in a dash of drama, some hallmark worthy groveling, and we have a winner!

Loved.

Young adult romance

I liked this book but the characters, Mike and Kylie were young. This is definitely a New Adult kind of book. Mike just broke up with his love and Kylie and he were best friends forever. She's been in love with him forever but he didn't see her that way. Until he does. But can they take the risk to their friendship? I loved their relationship and their growth but again, these characters were young and I hoped that their romantic relationship would have begun when they were more mature. But it was great to see them evolve and I loved the glimpse into the other family, as well as more info about the mystery behind the Becker Brothers' dad's death.

I listened to the audiobook and the cast was great. The male narrator, Edward Thomas, sounded young enough to play Mikey and Chelsea Hatfield did well too. They played their characters and others well enough to keep me interested in listening.

More of a YA book

I have enjoyed this series but this one felt more YA to me. I had to scroll past the sex parts because it seemed weird to read about 18 year old having sex, yes I'm old. I am excited about the last book in the series and to finally find out what they found on the laptop. Good series, good writing.
