Horribly Harry

Bad Boyfriends, Inc, Book 2

By: Lisa Henry, Sarah Honey

Narrated by: Grant Cartwright

To supplement his income while he's completing his degree, Harry Townsend hires himself out as a terrible date—he'll horrify parents and family members in all sorts of ways. But when it comes to actual relationships—and sex—Harry doesn't get the appeal. He doesn't get the same tingly feelings everyone else seems to when they meet someone. And he’s fine with that.

Jack Windsor abandoned his university degree to do an apprenticeship as a mechanic. He's happy with his choices, but leaving uni meant losing his accommodation, and now he's crashing on his sister Mia's couch. It isn't ideal, but it's only until he finds something else—which is proving difficult.

When Jack recognizes Harry from his sister's terrible date, he almost kills him. In the aftermath he discovers that not only was Harry's bad date with Mia a setup, but that Harry is looking for a roommate.

Moving in with Harry is great, if only he wasn't so distractingly cute—and totally uninterested in Jack. Except as they grow closer, for the first time ever Harry starts to develop feelings. But how can Harry and Jack be together when Jack's family thinks that Harry is the worst human being in the universe?

Contains mature themes.

Good story. Good narration.

This book was just as warm and fuzzy as the first one in the series. The narration was also nicely done. I did have a little trouble believing that Harry ever worked as a Bad Boyfriend though. His personality didn't seem to mesh with the business that Ambrose had built. Overall, this was an enjoyable read/listen, and I am starting on the next one.
