Merry Me

A Holiday Romance

De: C.R. Jane

Narrado por: Alexis Paige, Sean Masters

She thought she buried her past—until it shows up in a Santa suit at her sister's wedding.

Natalie Bennett has a plan: survive her big sister's Christmas Eve wedding, avoid her estranged father, and absolutely do not fall apart in front of the ex she walked away from...even if he does look annoyingly good in red velvet.

Easton Maddox was supposed to be a high school memory—before Hollywood, before heartbreak, before she convinced herself walking away was the right thing. But when one broken down car, a meddling grandmother, and a very compromising duet throw them back together, old feelings resurface faster than you can say "I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus."

Now stuck in a cozy mountain lodge with one very determined ex, Natalie's forced to confront the truth: maybe love doesn't follow logic. And maybe, just maybe…the boy she left behind is the man who never left her heart.

Merry Me is a funny, tender, and swoon-filled second-chance romance about finding your way back to the one who never really let you go.

Narrated in duet style.

I love Natalie & Easton!

Natalie got her own HEA! I loved the story of Natalie and her high school sweetheart Easton. It was a bit drawn out, but still highly entertaining with several lol moments. MeeMaw is definitely a memorable character! I highly recommend this book, it's worth the credit! I can't wait for the next book in the "Wrong Player" series.

These two are everything. And more !!!

Nat and Easton!!

The story I’ve been dying to read—and listen to (fun fact: you can add the audiobook too!)—did not disappoint! I loved everything about this book. Especially what Easton did to Santa… haha, just a little glimpse of his crazy side!

There isn’t anything I didn’t like about this story. I loved Nat fighting him, their fiery attraction, and how Easton simply won’t stop until he gets her. Total swoon-worthy moments. Everything I hoped for and more!

Holiday Puns

Narrated by Alexis Paige & Sean Masters

The perfect holiday rom-com! 🎄 I was laughing and swooning from start to finish. Between Memaw, the Christmas puns, and emergency nerd gummies—it’s nonstop festive fun!

Alexis Paige makes Natalie so relatable, and Sean Masters brings all the heat as Easton Maddox. A cozy, funny, feel-good listen that proves love never really dies. ❤️🎧

Love me some Natalie and Easton!

The banter between Natalie and Easton, the text conversations with Nat’s girlfriends, and the occasional appearance of Jace and Parker made this a great standalone tie-in to The Wrong Player series. Be prepared for working through trauma and heartache in the midst of the snark!

This was the perfect spicy rom-com I've been needing in my life. I have loved this whole series thus far, and was so happy that Natalie was getting her book. This author brought so much joy in this book, and not as many red flags as her past books. That all happened being the scene. At get the perfect holiday romance with funny banter, a loving family and a crazy memaw that is quite freaky. A to read for me this year!!

If you've been reading The Wrong Player series, then you know Natalie as Casey's BFF and dorm mate. She is sassy, fun says what she means and can throw a punch. She is unapologetically herself, and I've always loved her character.

Yet, put her around her family for a week during the holidays because her sister is getting married, and watch her find out her ex is going to be there because he is the grooms best friend.... watch her fall apart, and fast.

Easton Maddox is a famous Hollywood actor. But he's come back to town to win his ex back. He is willing to do whatever it takes to make Natalie his again, and nothing is going to stop him.

I loved Easton! His character was so charming and sweet, yet he could and would fall to his knees for Natalie anytime. It was sweet going through his head during his POV. To see how Natalie actually makes him feel, yet playing it cool in front of everyone.

Yes, he had some red flag moments, but a lot of them happened before they came together during this week. Like her schooling and knowing things about her he shouldn't. Does anyone know what actually happened to Brian after the closet incident?? Seems like we should have known, lol.

Afters truths start coming out from Easton from their 2 years apart, I could see how Natalie felt shame. Honestly the whole thing she was trying to prevent happening for herself, she was making it happen to Easton. She never thought about that though. She didn't want to feel certain ways, but was making him feel them because they were apart. I wish she would have came to that conclusion.

When these two came together Natalie fought it, but it always ended with their hands all over each other. It was truly a soul mate story and Easton had realized he found his forever in 7th grade. Natalie knew it to, but her past led her to thinking and doing awful things she thought was the best. How could she not believe in true love when she around Parker and Casey, or Jace and Riley?

Oh. and can I say that we know who Matt is with in this book?? We have the stalker girls name and know that they are together. That was a mean tease Mrs. Jane. I was thinking that I didn't miss Matty's book, but nooooo, the author likes to tease us. And has his girls name been brought up in past books? I feel like I've heard her name before, but don't know where.

The banter between the girls chats were great. Plus I loved how the guys jumped in when Natalie would say something they didn't want their girls to think about when it came to another man. I loved the texting and the Holiday innuendos. Just funny and perfect.

This whole book was perfect.The narrators were amazing. As always Alexis Paige does fantastic work. She had narrated all of C.R. Jane's books, and I love her voice. Sean Master was insanely incredible in this book. I loved his voice as Easton. It was deep and raw and sexy. I don't remember his voice being so incredible before, but now I want to listen to him dirty talk some more, lol. The audiobook is done in duet so that skates makes it better, for me anyway. This book is a must-read or listen to.

Easton ❤️‍🔥

Easton the man that you are!! Loved how he never faltered. Not once.

My girl really had daddy issues and man did they keep her from being happy. I just wish there would have been some type of apology to him (and maybe i missed it.) after everything she put them through a little accountability to him would have just been good.


Regardless Loved this story so much!

Merry me yessssss

Just please listen to it you will not be disappointed! Nat and Easton a great combo.

Love Nat and Easton!

So happy Nat got her HEA also loved the references to the hockey boys! The Narrators did an amazing job bringing them to life!

So sad..

This book was to me SAD.. loved “pucking wrong number”. But all of her following books seem to be desperate to follow in its footsteps. But this one is the worst. It’s 90% inner dialogue and 10% of the female character screeching whining and just over acting. I am sorry I bought it.
