Big Country

Romcom Set in NOLA

De: Amarie Avant

Narrado por: J. Y. Kora, Myles Washington

Big League Energy, Single Momma Energy, and a fake relationship shadier than a Louisiana live oak.

MONTANA: “Big Country.” That name—my name—had Dodger Stadium shaking when I won the World Series. Now they’re talking suspension? Please. I’m a national legend. The pride of NOLA. But the only thing dragging my six-foot-four frame into my Creole restaurant is her…Journey.

That woman’s a walking challenge—sharp tongue, soft smile, and eyes that promise trouble. One look from me and she fumbles that cool facade. One look from her and suddenly I’m reconsidering every rule I’ve ever followed.

So yeah, I’ll polish my image with her—and maybe blur the line between business and pleasure.

ZURI: That damn face of Montana’s? Unfair. His voice? Dangerous. His presence? A whole problem I don’t need. But when Big Country offers a contract that could change my life, I read the fine print.

Hell, he doesn’t even know my real name. My locs stay tucked under a wig that smells like coconut oil, chaos, and bad decisions. And nobody will ever know the truth about my son’s father.

But the problem isn’t pretending. It’s the way he looks at me—like he sees straight through the disguise. And if I’m not careful, he might see the woman I swore I’d never let anyone touch…again.

This brand-new, hilarious fake dating romcom will have you planning a trip to New Orleans!

Love this love story

About halfway through the book and I absolutely love the story of Montana and Journey!! This romantic comedy set in Louisiana is such a fun and heartwarming read. From the very first chapter, I was pulled into the story and not just because of the romance, but because of how alive the setting felt. The Louisiana backdrop added so much charm, culture, and personality to the book. You could practically feel the humidity in the air, taste the food, and hear the music in the background. So far this is a super cute romcom and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a charming escape with heart.

Another Excellent Book by This Author

I’ve read some of the authors earlier work and loved it so I thought I’d give her romantic comedy a chance. The narrators really got into character. Some of the scenes really made me feel Ike I was in NOLA. Great story.

So disappointing,my expectations were too high

The story had great potential it started out all over the place , definitely not enough back story. Although Myles Washington is my number 1 narrator , his New Orleans accent is definitely not my favorite. I am literally writing this after 5 chapters don’t think I can finish it
