Going Down Easy

Boys of the Big Easy

De: Erin Nicholas

Narrado por: Ryan West

As far as flings go, single dad Gabe Trahan is pretty sure that Addison Sloan is his best bet. Once a month, Addison comes to New Orleans and then…It. Is. On. Until Addison returns to New York, it’s just hot, happily-no-strings-attached sex. And beignets. And jazz. But lately for Gabe, it isn’t nearly enough.

Sure, maybe Addison’s gotten a bit hooked on Gabe. After all, who can resist a guy who’s so sexy, so charming, and so…available? But maybe he’s too available for her right now. Addison’s just moved to New Orleans, and relationships are definitely off the table. Besides, guys always bail when they learn her secret: she’s a single mom.

Only Gabe’s not running. Worse, he’s thrilled. But Addison never signed up for ever-after romance, and Gabe won’t settle for anything less. Now it’s a battle of wills - and when it comes to the woman he’s falling for, Gabe isn’t above playing a little dirty.

Great story!

I truly enjoyed listening to Going Down Easy, the storyline is fun, sexy and left me with a smile. the hero of the story is so loveable and just wants to be loved by the heroine who is very leary of getting into a relationship especially one with kids even though she has a young daughter herself. This story had the perfect amount of angst and had me glued to the book from beginning to end.

The narrator did a great job at portraying each character, his southern accent for New Orleans was perfect. I will definitely be looking at other books he has narrated for.

Overall Going Down Easy is a great book with a hero who loves to talk sexy to the heroine and loves to show her through action even more. The hero and heroine are perfect for each other and you can't help but root for them to get the HEA they both deserve. I highly recommend this fun, sexy read to all romance lovers!

Single Parents together

Gabe and Addison meet and have a once a month weekend affair in New Orleans then Addison travels back to New York City. What happens when Addison moves to New Orleans and they can see each other more than that once a month? They find out things about each other like both are single parents. Addison doesn't want any help raising her daughter and Gabe has support and wants more support from Addison. Gabe anonymously invites Addison to a single parents club where she meets other single parents and finds out that it is nice to have support. The road to happiness isn't without it's bumps but it's wonderful to see their relationship and their children's relationship develop. I loved the narration by Ryan West! This is the first time I've heard him and I hope it isn't the last! Erin Nicholas has written a great start to this new series and I can't wait for the next book!

Sweet with no depth

This is a sweet romance that could have been much better. We started off knowing about Addison’s job, and her past leaving me to believe that would come into play later. That never developed. The entire plot revolved around the H/h relationship with non of the secondary plot interfering. There was hardly any tension or drama or mystery to hold interest. All in all this is a cute, sweet with a little hot sex book.

Lots of Kid Talk ❤️🐊🔦💙

Even though this is a romance between Gabe and Addison, it’s also a story of building a relationship with kids an creating a forever family.

I liked how hot they were, and how determined Gabe was to build more. Set in New Orleans, it had a fun cast of characters.

There is A LOT of development with the kids, so that can be tiresome, but it was fun to watch these two single parents adjust their lives to accommodate two more very different people into each other’s lives.

The narrator does a good job. Easy to listen to.

Good Story

The narrator did a good job. I really enjoyed Gabe and Addison and their storyline. I'm not usually a big fan of kids in books but I really enjoyed them as secondary characters.

Sweet

Loved this short sweet book! no craziness just man loving a woman and woman coming around.

Not Always Easy in The Big Easy

Overall, not a bad start to a new series! I like the single parent theme. I like that the main characters aren't too young. I like that they are in a single parent support group with varied members of all ages, genders and incomes. Of course, love wins in the end and the characters get their happy ending but not without having their hang ups to deal with first. Standard romance story protocols. There is sex too, of course. I skip if there's more than one or two of those scenes cause it's just boring to listen to after that. My one big problem with this story was the female lead- she's the mom to 5 yr old Stella. Right from the beginning when we find out she has a daughter, she complains about having her. How she didn't plan it but wouldn't have an abortion, the father was a deadbeat, she didn't have any support, how Stella was always there and she never had any personal time. As if that wasn't enough, she is pretty rude about Gabe having a son and how she has no interest in any more kids. Of course after behaving this way, she eventually starts changing her mind and then they spend all their time together as a family. So kind of wishy washy. It just doesn't present very well to the reader. Anyone who is a parent has doubts, fears, challenges. It's normal. I'm sure each person has questioned whether they should have become a parent at all at some point. But by the female character's behavior, it sounds more like regret all the time. Like she doesn't want to be bothered so she raises Stella to be as independent as possible. Ryan West did a superb narrating job.

great single parent story

I love how both characters are single parents. I love how they're in a support group. the narrator is super amazing. Gabe is super sweet. I love how he is very firm about being together. definitely recommend

Going down easy

I just couldn't get into this book. Loved the single parent aspect. The narration was spot on and from a man's point of view. There was entirely too much talking and thinking about sex, with the storyline taking third place. If this is what is running in a man's mind 24/7, how on earth do they function in the real world. If Gabe wasn't dreaming, thinking of engaged in doing a carnal act he remembered that he had a family. Addison had a child she loved, but hadn't really wanted. Rather a confusing conflict with her dedication to said child. Both were good & loving parents, and I really liked that. Addison spent rather too much time "melting" with want with just a glance at Gabe. Come on already-it was established early on that they couldn't resist each other, did it really need to saturate each and every waking moment to the exclusion of a storyline. I am not sure I will try this author again, as I seem to have a different opinion as to what I expect the sex/storyline ratio to be.

Going Down Easy was Easy Going Down

I loved this book. Erin never disappoints me. Ryan did an awesome job on reading and the voices. You all keep up the great work.
