The Griffith Brothers, Book 1

By: Maggie Gates

Narrated by: Sophie Daniels, Dane Anderson

Christian: Rule Number 1: You ride in my truck; you let me open the door.

Another problem was the last thing I needed. Unfortunately, Cassandra Parker was mine. But the biggest problem of all? It wasn't the beautiful stranger sticking her nose in my operations. It wasn't the bulldozer she was driving over my way of life. And it definitely wasn't the fact that she was living in my house.

My biggest problem? The engagement ring on her finger.

Cassandra: Rule Number 1: If you're going to kill someone, make it look like an accident, cry at the funeral, admit to nothing, and deny everything.

To be clear, I didn't want to be Christian Griffith's problem. But there I was: exiled from New York, stranded on a cattle ranch, and desperate to salvage what was left of my career. Living with a single dad and his children was a downgrade from my high-rise office and city comforts, but I agreed to it for one simple reason: to save my job.

A hot cowboy wasn't going to lasso me into staying a second longer than necessary.

Contains mature themes.

It's Cowboys, what's not to love?

This listen was actually a re-read for me so I already knew I loved the story. I mean, it's cowboys, so what's not to love? Sophie Daniels does a fantastic job of bringing Cassandra to life. I'll be honest though, I didn't automatically like the performance of Christian. In the first chapter Dane Anderson gives a very awkward, almost rushed delivery. After a few chapters, however, that weirdness is gone as if he settles into the character. Overall, I still very much enjoyed this performance and would still recommend it to others.

Loved this book

This book was so good, at first I wasn’t sure about the FMC but as the story progressed I grew to love her character. Can’t wait for the next book to be on audiobook

Oh

“Greedy girl” is diabolical—give her all the awards for that line…Dane too, for that matter. Perfectly delivered. Cassandra is a breath of fresh air and her character development was incredible. Christian. Yeah—this is the right way to write a character named “Christian”. 10/10!

A great read!

This was my first book by this author and it definitely won’t be my last! I was hooked pretty quickly! I did a tandem read and listen with this one. If you like audio books I highly recommend it! The narrators did a fantastic job with the story. They brought a lot of life to the characters. I will admit in the beginning I wasn’t sure how I was going to like this one. I found the FMC a bit unlikeable, but I as I read more I saw that was the point. There was a lot of character growth on her part and I ended up really liking her! This book will have you cracking up and feeling the feels! Definitely one of those reads that when you get to the end you’re not ready! I could have read so much more! So if you’re in the mood for a small town, cowboy, single dad, forced proximity, workplace romance look no further!

Love this

I love the Griffith brothers! This series has so much heart.
When I read it I was afraid Cassandra was a diva but she quickly won me over and she’s nothing but a take no sh** bad a** and I love her
The audio was 5 star glorious and made a great book better
