Book Boyfriends, Book 2

By: Claire Kingsley

Narrated by: Lucy Rivers, Teddy Hamilton

Length: 6 hrs and 44 mins

Publisher's summary

He's such a bad idea. This roommate thing is not going to work.

Kendra is a messy-haired, pajama-pants-wearing little ball of sass. The first thing she does is try to make friends with my random from the night before - giving her all sorts of bad ideas.

I don’t date. I don’t use words like girlfriend, or I’ll text you later. F--k that. Relationships aren’t for me. I’ll give a woman a night she won’t forget, but once it’s over, I’m out.

I keep people at a distance, and I have my reasons. But Kendra starts getting under my skin. And when my life crashes and burns - literally - Kendra is the only person on whom I can count.

I’m not built for relationships, and Kendra is not a one-night stand. But living with this girl sleeping one room away might just be the thing that kills me.

Cocky Roommate is a stand-alone hate-to-lovers roommate romance with a definite HEA. It contains mature language and content and is intended for a mature audience. Fair warning, Weston is a straight up asshole. Or is he?

Cute story. Narration... Meh

The story was cute, but Weston was almost too much of an ass. It was hard not to think he had duel personalities.
Teddy Hamilton does a great job at narrating all of the characters, but I wasn’t a fan of Lucy Rivers. I wish they would have stuck with the female narrator from the first book.

Loved it! 5 BRIGHT STARS!

This is the first time that by the end of the story I am rooting for the redemption of a$$hole male lead.

This story was very enjoyable. Loved the heroine, and how her selfless and sunny disposition ends up captivating the beast that was the hero.

I liked very much that the heroine was able to give so much of herself without being a doormat, while the hero sulked, brooded, and barked.

The narration was enjoyable.

Credit worthy story.

💫🌟✨5 BRIGHT STARS✨⭐️💫

like it so far

lots of smiles, fun. like her, feel bad for him. so glad she was there for him. loved the ending! lived that the partner's story ended that way, karma

Cute

There was a lot of “he says/ I say” and that got irritating but the story was cute. Weston was bit too diskish for my liking, dude needs therapy. 1st book was better, heres hoping for the 3rd.

Great story. Audiobook chapter issue.

I enjoyed this story a lot. Great second book to the series. I love how there is more nods to romance readers. I look forward to book 3. I was expecting more drama than there was, but am glad there was less. I am not a big fan of much drama anymore. This story flowed very well.

The narrators did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life! Will gladly listen to them separately and together.

The audiobook is missing chapter 21 and chapter 23 is repeated. chapter 21 gives you more insight into Ian and Weston's partnership as well as Ian's character.
Still happy this story has an audiobook, though. I laughed in so many places.

Quick read.

Cocky Roommate is quick, fun and sexy read. I’m in love with all the characters. The Lawsons are an amazing family with strong bonds. Kendra is takes care of everyone, her dad, her brothers and niece. It’s fun to watch her fall in love with Weston, who’s fighting his past. She brings out the best in him and together they have a beautiful love story.

Good story narrators 50/50

this is the 2nd book in the series, and I did enjoy it, but not as much as the first one - Book Boyfriend. Teddy Hamilton is amazing as always and has a voice I could listen to forever, but Lucy Rivers was not as enjoyable, she was ok, but has a weird reading voice that is oddly monotonous without being totally monotonous, I got used to it after a while but it is occasionally jarring at some points of the story. if I could I would give Teddy Hamilton 5 stars for narration, but Lucy Rivers maybe 2? I may go back to reading vs listening to this one

Weston 😍😍😍

I’ve been a huge fan of the H since the first time I read this book. I think even more so after listening to the audio. I’m new to audio, but I felt it was very well done. I love the dual performance.

Cocky Roommate

Audio: I am not sure that I have heard any other performances by Lucy Rivers before this, but she did an wonderful job bringing these characters to life. Teddy Hamilton is one of my favorites and together their performances were amazing.

Story: I'll be honest I didn't know how Claire was going to redeem Weston after his introduction to Kendra, but I should have never lost faith. It is so worth getting past his A$$hole shield to get to why he puts on the front and acts the way he does (Mia wasn't wrong). I loved that even though he is a major grump he truly appreciates everything Kendra did for him, when no one else was there for him. This was a great book to have in between Book Boyfriend and Hot Single Dad. The shift from each book to the next is huge BUT the fit so well together.

Kendra and Weston

Surgeon/player Weston meets his match with freelancer roommate Kendra. Narration and story were very well done. Weston proved to be a typical swoony asshole alpha that gets knocked down a peg by an accident, and a strong woman who wouldn't leave him alone.
