'I absolutely adored Too Hot To Handle! I thought it was so funny and so fun - I raced through it in one big, lovely read-y gulp. It deserves to be taken on so many holidays this summer.' - Lucy Vine, author of Seven Exes

The laugh out loud, sun-drenched rivals to lovers romance from MILLION COPY BESTSELLER Portia MacIntosh, perfect for fans of Christina Lauren, Lynn Painter and Emily Henry!

One bachelorette party. One stag do. One double-booked villa and only one way to decide who gets it: a competition.

Workaholic Molly is buzzing when her best friend tells her she’s getting married. As maid of honour Molly can’t wait for the perfect bachelorette party in Spain. What could be better than a week in a stunning villa? Sun, sea, cocktails and gossiping – and best of all, no boys allowed. But when the hens arrive they discover that they are not alone. The villa has been accidentally double booked by a group of stags who make it very clear they’re not leaving!

It’s a disaster, and no one wants to give up their place in paradise. Attempts at compromising fail instantly, so their only option is to have a winner takes all competition. Battle lines are drawn and it is girls v boys - but will the competition be too hot to handle?

As their rivalry heats up, and Molly finds herself gravitating towards stag Travis, it’s clear that he’s enjoying the attention - but Molly can’t let herself get distracted, and under no circumstances can she fall for the enemy.

Always Love Portia

My go to author for comfort and laughs, she’s does it again with Too Hot To Handle. Hilarious, adorable, easy listening yet engaging. Narrator, Karen Cass is brilliant as always.

The shampoo chapter!!

Absolutely love this hilarious book. The story had many laugh out loud moments and twists that made you smile. Perfectly narrated as usual and a quick read.

It’s a cute story. One of my best authors I always look forward to her books.

The cussing in the book was different for her, and I did not enjoy that but overall it was an easy read. There’s a few spots that you smile a few spots that you may laugh. But definitely a romcom. I love this author. I look forward to all of her books.

Never read a Portia book I haven’t loved!

I love every single one of Portia’s books and this one was no exception! Karen Cass is also my favorite narrator. Such a cute story. Such a great break from the stress of life. I always look forward to a new release!!

Another Fun Read from Portia

I have listened to all of Portia's books. They are always so fun to listen to and Karen Cass is my favorite narrator.

Entertaining & Creative

What delightful and perfect book to listen to! Karen Cass gives a nice narration although I found the distinction between the characters lacking. The male voices had less distinction than the female characters.

I loved the premise of the book; a vacation villa mix-up where Molly and her three friends find themselves in a double-booking situation with four guys. Well, all is fair in love and . . . villas? Both parties are there to attend weddings, so with a two week stay on the line, both parties decide on some competitive fun to see who gets to stay. The crazy competition ideas everyone comes up with in order to best the others is funny and creative. There is plenty of sass, banter and attraction between characters. And when you are finally approaching the end, there are a few surprises. Enjoy listening!
