Publisher's Summary

Hot on the heels of her beloved Marriage to a Billionaire novels, New York Times best-selling author Jennifer Probst nails it with the first in an all-new sexy romance series featuring red-hot contractor siblings who give the Property Brothers a run for their money!

Ever the responsible eldest brother, Caleb Pierce started working for his father's luxury contracting business at a young age, dreaming of one day sitting in the boss' chair. But his father's will throws a wrench in his plans by stipulating that Caleb share control of the family business with his two estranged brothers.

Things only get more complicated when demanding high-end home designer Morgan hires Caleb to build her a customized dream house that matches her specifications to a T - or she'll use her powerful connections to poison the Pierce brothers' reputation. Not one to ignore a challenge, Caleb vows to get the job done - if only he can stop getting distracted by his new client's perfect...amenities.

But there's more to icy Morgan than meets the eye. And Caleb's not the only one who knows how to use a stud finder. In fact Morgan is pretty sure she's found hers - and he looks quite enticing in a hard hat. As sparks fly between Morgan and Caleb despite his best intentions not to mix business and pleasure, will she finally warm up and help him lay the foundation for everlasting love?

perfect beach read

What I really liked is that the "issues" (that every romance is destined to have) weren't mountains out of molehills but also weren't ridiculously dark. It's a light, airy, fun book and I look forward to the series. It's sexy hot too. Liking Property Brothers or any HGTV will help you like this story, but it's not necessary. I only wished I could have spent more time on the beach with it.

Nice story - poor femenine narration

What disappointed you about Everywhere and Every Way?

I select books for the story but also for the voice. The story is light and entertaining, which fulfils the objective for me. But the feminine narration, the first time I hear it, is poor, she finishes all the sentences with a high tone that gives the impression of having all questions and lack of conviction. There is some correction in the middle of the book, but she keep doing it until the end. I would have rather read it than listened to it.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Expected.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Madeleine Maby and Sebastian York ?

Sebastian York was good.
Madeleine Maby has a nice voice but has to work on the rhythm and narration, it gets tiring hearing her end all the sentences in a high tone, like a half question.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Story is light and has a continuation. I will check whether I buy the book or the audible version.

Great story but horrible female narrator

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend they read the book but not listen to it.

What did you like best about this story?

I liked that Morgan was strong, intelligent, focused on personal success rather than fame or income, and she had experienced a legitimate struggle that many could relate to rather than a far fetched ridiculous issue.

Have you listened to any of Madeleine Maby and Sebastian York ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to many Sebastian York narrations and his voice is amazing. He reads with great infliction and even when he plays the female voice it feels seamless. I look forward to more from him.

Normally I do not give bad reviews but I feel as though something needs to be done to help Madeleine Maby stop ruining books. If it weren't for York's performance I would have returned the audiobook and downloaded the kindle version instead. Her reading voice is awful. She pauses at odd parts, goes up and down with her tone at inappropriate times, and when reading for male characters she makes them sound intellectually disabled. It gives me physical pain to listen to her at times and takes the focus from the story to my annoyance at her horrible interpretation of the characters in the story.

Any additional comments?

Please replace Maby for future narrations. Or have her work on her craft. Perhaps this was her first gig?

Great story

Narrator from female was horrible! I loved Sebastian York's voice. Big fan! Overall good book.

Hope book 2 comes soon

Would you listen to Everywhere and Every Way again? Why?

Great story and worth hearing again. The story seems real.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Morgan, what a strong women.

What does Madeleine Maby and Sebastian York bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I'm a huge fan of both narrators and love listening to them together or on their own.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The best part was when the three bothers finally figured it out. And the reaction from Raven the bar tender.

What a GREAT STORY

Oh I totally love Sebastian York and Madeleine Maby. No one is perfect and the story really captured it. I laughed out loud.

The performance

Many ruin it for my series. The story line has so much potential n the book starting with York gave me hope. I tried:(

Great story; odd performance

Loved the story, but the performance was a little strange. Breaks between words didn't really make sense.

Great Book

Where does Everywhere and Every Way rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I had a hard time putting this one down, just wish I wish I could get the next to books but not out year in audio.

What does Madeleine Maby and Sebastian York bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I love both voices Sebastian is amazing he embraces the characters and Madeleine wasn't bad they might be my new favorite pair.

Loved it and then some

I want more! So many questions left unanswered and I can't wait to get the answers
