The Hot Mess and the Heartthrob

De: Pippa Grant

Narrado por: Summer Roberts, Tyler Donne

He could have the world, yet he's looking at me like I am his world.

You don’t know me, but you do know me. I’m your neighborhood hot-mess single mom, doing my best to keep my head above water while running my little slice of heaven and keeping my youngest from shoving marbles up his nose - which is exactly what he’s doing the first time Levi Wilson, pop star god, world’s sexiest man, and my all-time number-one celebrity obsession, walks into my bookstore.

Related: I’m writing this from beyond the grave, because I’ve died of mortification and am now residing in an alternate universe. I have to be. Because Levi Wilson came back. And we had a moment. Like, a moment-moment. The kind that makes me remember that adult pleasure isn’t all about hoping the lock holds in the bathroom so your kids don’t interrupt on the rare occasion you feel like taking an extra-long mommy-time shower.

So when he proposes a no-strings fling? Count. Me. In. Thrill of a lifetime, right? Surely, nothing will go wrong....

The Hot Mess and the Heartthrob is a rockin’ fun, sexy romantic comedy featuring a celebrity panty-melter who doesn’t know what he’s been missing, a sassy single mom hanging on by a string, three adorable children who would never burst in on a woman when she’s on a toilet (ha!), and shameless ovary-busting moments between a guy who never thought he’d be a dad and a family who thought they got along just fine without him. It stands alone and comes complete with a happily-ever-after.

The fairytale

One of those stories you would love to have be true that could never be. A good number of smiles, all the characters in this one are likeable. I'll listen to it again sometime.

LOL!!!

I literally laughed out loud many times. The descriptions of circumstances surrounding several situations had me rewinding to listen over and over, just to laugh out loud again!!!

Enjoyable

Really enjoyable book three in the bro code series. Great road trip material and decent laughs

Levi!!!

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Levi makes life so much fun.....you can. Always count on good times around him. Ingrid is a single mom who forgot what fun can be.

Together they make one of the best Pippa Grant books to date! I loved all the Easter eggs and Hudson!!!

The narrator is amazing!

How funny and romantic at the same time.

Loved the characters. The female character is very relatable. Loved how the male is so calm and relaxed

Humor, heart, and yes, hot messes

This story was a wonderful mix of humor and heart, things I’ve come to expect from a Pippa Grant story. The duet narration by Summer Robert’s and Tyler Donne was spot on. I loved this story when I first read it but hearing Pippa’s words always take them to the next level. Ingrid was a character I think most people can relate to - someone trying their best, feeling overwhelmed, and afraid they are failing those they love who depend on us. Levi as the pop star with everything but realizing he wants more was vulnerable. I loved watching him realize through his relationship with single mom Ingrid everything his own mom went through as a single mom herself. I loved the cameos from other folks in the Copper Valley world. Such a wonderful story and great listen, I highly recommend!!

Pippa strikes again and I love it

This story right here will give you all the feels. I laughed a lot. I love seeing all of the other characters from so many of the other books. It’s great! I love Copper Valley and it’s crazy residents.

Hilarious, Heartfelt, and Steamy Romance!

I had so much fun listening to this sweet, heartwarming, and steamy story. Ingrid is a single mother of 3 spirited, adorable kids and runs a book store that is a safe place for all the hot mess moms who need support. Levi is a sexy rock star who stumbles into her store one day and changes the course of both their lives. They had an unknowing moment years ago at one of his concerts. Ingrid held a sign the re inspired Levi and he has been looking for her ever since, and he is determined to get to know her. Levi had been Ingrid's long time obsession, but now she sees the caring, thoughtful man underneath and she can't figure out why he would want a hot mess of a mother. But her ex husband traveled all the time and she didn't want to put her kids thru that again. Levi only sees a smart, giving, and loving woman that he can't live without along with her kids. He is determined to convince her that they are meant to be together, to be a family. This slow burn, rom-com is filled with witty banter, awkward and hilarious situations, and a sweet and sexy storyline with lots of heart.
Summer Roberts and Tyler Donne were amazing at bringing this story and these characters to life, making me laugh, swoon and cheer for Ingrid and Levi to have their HEA.
I had fun listening to this heartwarming, hilarious, and steamy story to life!

Best of the series!

This was probably my favorite of the whole series. Definitely had the most laugh-out-loud moments and great characters. We finally get Levi's story.

Levi is the younger brother of Tripp and another former Bro Code member. He's the only one who stayed in the music industry and has been doing his solo career. He also is the one who never wanted to slow down and settle. Until he has the unlikely run-in with someone he knows he recognizes.

Ingrid owns a cute little bookstore and has 3 wild kids. A former military woman, she once went to a Bro Code show and held up a sign and could swear Levi locked eyes with her...

Such a cute book with lots of laughs. Slow burn on the steam, and probably less spice than some of the others, but still a great book. I'm curious to see if we will get a book about the last Bro Code member, Davis.
Definitely a 4.25.

Love

Can’t wait for more of the Bro Code! Loved the cameos here but also for Levi and Ingrid - adore. He made her feel seen, loved, and valued, and isn’t that what we all need? Open door 🌶️🌶️ with plenty of laughs along the way.
