Publisher's summary

A brand new sexy stand-alone romantic comedy from number one New York Times best-selling Author Lauren Blakely! Includes a bonus short story narrated by a full cast!

There are a million reasons why Miles Hart isn't the man I should date but allow me to enumerate the top three. He's friends with my brother; he's a single dad; and he's a sexy, in-demand rock star. He might as well wear an off-limits, totally unavailable, and don’t-even-attempt-to-ride-this-ride sign.

And there’s one more little itty-bitty thing - he's never asked me on a date.

That is, until he asks me to be his plus-one when his band plays at his high school reunion. It shouldn’t be a big deal. After all, we’re just friends, and no one is giving us our own hashtag. Except me.

I have three good reasons to keep my hands off Roxy Sterling - her brother’s my business manager; my kid is the center of my world; and the last time I fell hard for a woman, I was burned so badly that my interest in relationships has gone up in flames. But once I bring Roxy’s body next to mine on the dance floor, I want all the not-safe-for-work things I can't have with her.

My brain knows there’s no way for us to work, but tell that to my big mouth. Because the second she plants a hot, sexy kiss on me, I have the bright idea to ask her to keep being my plus one - turning one night into a few.

What’s the harm in spending a little more time with her and having her by my side at all these events? Nothing at first, until I learn exactly how risky we might be.

This audiobook includes the bonus short story A Little Big Rock, produced exclusively in audio for this title and narrated by a full cast including Andi Arndt, Sebastian York, Joe Arden, and Erin Mallon!

omg omg

you will absolutely love this book and of course Andi Arndt and Sebastian York deliver one hell of a book!!! Lauren Blakeley delivers as always!!

Great Blakely Series

This third in the series was just as good as the previous books. Blakely is a master at relationships, romance and comedy. The relationship between father and son is magical as well as bringing in a third person that only adds to that family unit. Roxy is adorable with her dream of being a mother. What better person than Miles to bring Roxy in to the Hart family. Great story, Grear narration.

5 Chicken Magnet Stars!

Lauren Blakely saved the best for last with Once Upon a Wild Fling! I absolutely loved Miles and Roxy's story! It was sweet, flirty, sexy, and adorkably fun! Even though these characters were introduced in the previous books in this series, it can certainly be enjoyed as a standalone. Sebastian York and Andi Arndt bring Miles and Roxy to life so well. They were the perfect duo for the Heartbreakers series and I loved experiencing each of these stories in audio.

One thing I love about the Heartbreakers series is that the characters are a little older and more mature. They've already lived through some of life's ups and downs and have come out stronger (though somewhat scarred) from their battles. The characters know what they want and there isn't any unnecessary drama or back and forth. Once Upon a Wild Fling was part friends to lovers, brother's little sister taboo, and single parent romance. Miles and Roxy had amazing chemistry and I loved how devoted they both were to their families and friends. I loved their sexy banter and innuendo and how their attraction was always simmering under the surface. Ben was absolutely adorable and I have to say stole the show any time he was on the page. There is some angst, but it's understandable considering the baggage and history that Miles and Roxy have when it comes to relationships. I loved that the drama wasn't overblown though and that both recognized their errors and worked quickly to make their intentions clear. The epilogue was incredibly sweet and was a wonderful ending for this blended family. I wouldn't mind an extended epilogue further down the road though with updates on all of the Hart siblings. ;)

Another thing I love about these audios is that the text messages are read in duet style narration. Sebastian and Andi's voices mesh seamlessly! The bonus novella Little Big Rock performed by 4 (YES, 4 narrators) in the duet style at the end of the book was a fantastic treat! Each character had their own voice and you really can't get any better than hearing Sebastian York, Andi Arndt, Joe Arden, and Erin Mallon all together.

Once Upon a Wild Fling is a light and feel good rom com that you're sure to love!

Sweet listen

A quick listen, I liked the brother's friend trope. I enjoyed the seemingly genuine feelings involved. Loved the narration by Andi Arndt and Sebastian York :)

BEST ONE OF THE SERIES!
Man I loved this book! I have a weak spot for single dads and friends to lovers so this book hit all the right buttons for me. And this single dad went above and beyond in my opinion. I really enjoyed the relationship between Miles & Roxy, they were honest with each other about their feeling, no silly immature games. I loved that what Roxy had going on in her life didn't change anything for Miles and he jumped in with both feet. That was the best part of this book for me. Oh and I can't forget to mention how funny this book was, I laughed so many times especially at Ben!!

I love how this entire series has played out and that the characters were all adults without the unnecessary drama many authors add to their story just to mix it up. I prefer no drama, true love, mature characters and hot sex ... This book had all of this times 10! I also love that even though the characters connect, each book is a stand alone. Perfect, Perfect & Perfect!!!

The narration was great but I expect nothing less from these two narrators. It is so obvious to me that Lauren Blakely is an audiobook listener herself just by her casting choices. To me it almost feels like she writes her characters for the narrators instead of trying to match a narrator to the characters after the book is done.

The extra's were also an awesome addition to this audiobook. Little Big Rock was so much fun with all 4 narrators, it made me want to do a re-listen of the Big Rock series. Also the sneak peek at Unzipped was such a tease and now I'm just anxiously waiting for that book ;)

Single dad need I say more

WOW ok Miles needed a plus one for his reunion, Roxy has agreed to help, but didn't realize how strong she would feel when she went into action to save him from the women at the reunion. She lays a hot kiss on him and the rest is history. Now how to figure this out when her brother is best friends with said hot kiss. Loved everything about this the story, the laughter, the love the friendship all of it great job everyone.

Miles and Roxy

This twist-of-fate story has the best Single Rockstar Dad meets strongly independent and also single mom-to-be... only he doesn't know that part yet. The two pair up as friends and go-to companions, then friends with benefits, they discover that each has something unique that the other seems to be missing, but only time will tell if they can get past their own well-hidden insecurities to achieve happiness.
This last book in the Heartbreakers series was just as enjoyable as the first two. The adventures and banter between Miles, Roxy, and the whole cast of characters was quite entertaining. Rounding out yet another series of books, Andi Arndt and Sebastian York prove time and time again why they are such a sought after pair.

5 Wild & Sexy Stars!

I can not get enough of these Hart brothers! Miles is everything you want in a hero. Besides being a famous rock star, he's charming, funny, humble, and a loving father. When he needs a buffer for a coming event, a certain sexy red head, who is off limits, comes to mind. Roxy is his business managers sister. She is sweet, kind, brave, and focused on her future. When they become each others 'plus one', their chemistry explodes. But Miles has been burned before, and when his son falls for Roxy too, he fears he may not be the Heartbreaker this time. I loved Miles, his adorable son Ben, and Roxy so much! Miles and Roxy just click with the same desires and goals, and their chemistry is off the charts. Ben is so delightful, he is sweet, polite and imparts the perfect wisdom that only a child can.
Narrators Sebastian York, and Andi Arndt continue to deliver a magical performance. They capture Miles and Roxy's personalities perfectly, nailing the humor, and the steamy sexual tension. They make me laugh, and swoon as they bring this world to life. I also loved the bonus short story 'A Little Big Rock' along with the added cast at the end!
Ms. Blakely has created the perfect ending for these brothers and the women and children who love them. I absolutely loved everything about this sweet, heartwarming, funny, and super hot and steamy family saga!

Quick, fun, and good narrators

This whole series was cute and fun. The books are short and get right to the point. The characters are sweet and click well and I liked the addition of the kids so when the couples get together, they're a family. Miles is a famous singer, but he keeps down to earth and is a great father to his 5 year old son, Ben. Roxy is pregnant by a sperm donor and of course happens to meet a hot, single guy. Miles and Roxy had great chemistry and I loved seeing him care for her and get excited to go to her doctor's appointments and find out the sex of the baby.
Great narration and a well written plot. Lauren Blakely always delivers!

Sweet and sexy story

This audiobook was very entertaining listening. The hero is a music artist and the heroine is the sister of his new agent, who happens to have just gotten pregnant by a sperm donor. They are attracted to each other, but mask it as agreeing to be each other’s “plus one” for social events. Before they know it they are falling for each other hard, though neither will admit it. Add in one 6 yr old little boy and it’s a great story. Narration was excellent.
