I Wish You Were Mine

Harbour Village, Book 2

De: Jessica Peterson

Narrado por: Charlotte North, Austin Stone

A smoking hot standalone romance in the small-town Harbour Village series featuring a single dad, a nanny, and an accidental pregnancy...

I know Tuck Monroe is trouble the second I walk in to interview for the nanny position. Six-four and covered in tattoos, he's distractingly hot. He's also grumpy as hell. But I need to pay for school, so I take a job as his daughter's live-in caretaker and move into the apartment above his garage.

I fall hard for Katie, his adorable four-year-old. But I never expected to fall for my new boss, who's a decade older than I am. Turns out there's a heart of gold beneath Tuck's broody exterior, one I work to reveal bit by bit. Casual small talk leads to late-night conversations I can't get enough of. It's no surprise our simmering sexual tension explodes with one deep, toe-curling kiss.

He tells me I'm his good girl; I tell him I love the praise. We give ourselves one night, and one night only, to explore the fiery attraction between us.

It's the best sex of my life. But when I wake up, Tuck is gone, and life goes back to normal. Or at least I think it does until I start to feel nauseous. Turns out I was right: my boss is trouble. The kind that comes with one night I can't forget and two pink lines that will change our lives forever.

I Wish You Were Mine is a standalone romance in the interconnected Harbour Village series.

Marsn & Tuck

Maren and Tuck's journey was nothing short of perfection. Gah!! I loved these two so much! Right away I completely fell in love with them! This sweet, sexy, emotional, and swoon-worthy love story will take you on an unforgettable adventure that is sure to leave you beyond happy and your heart full. From the moment I first started the audiobook, to the second I finished it, I was transfixed. If you like single parent, age gap, forced proximity, and/or accidental pregnancy, this book is not to be missed.

Charlotte North & Austin Stone do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality. They do more than giving their characters their voices, they fall into the roles and become the character.

Character development!!

The only thing I didn’t like about this book was the beginning felt kind of rushed in a sense! Definitely not a slow burn but still pretty amazing!

I’m a sucker

I’m a sucker for romance and this book delivers! There’s love and tension and all the best life related, realistic, things that go into a relationship!

Loved Tuck and Maren in audio!

Ardently in love with Tiny and her Superman! I Wish You Were Mine by Jessica Peterson was a sweet, spicy, and swoony single dad, accidental pregnancy romance that pulled at my heartstrings in all the best ways. This is book 2 in Jessica’s Harbour Village series, and each new book makes me fall a little bit more for all that Bald Head Island has to offer.

Charlotte North and Austin Stone perform this audiobook in dual narration, and these two embody all things Tuck and Maren. Charlotte’s performances showcased Maren’s upbeat, loving demeanor as she found an immediate affection for Tuck’s daughter Katie, and her instant heated attraction to Tuck. Austin's warm, mellow voice portrayed Tuck’s love for his daughter and deep desires for Maren which made him utterly irresistible. Plus, both brought the HEAT with the dirty talk and steamy sexual tension between Tuck and Maren.

Overall, I LOVED this book. If you are a fan of an age-gap romance with a hot wealthy single dad, a devoted spirited nanny, Bald Head Island, finishing your degree, lusting after your boss, an adorable daughter, cheerleading, dancing to Snoop, a man who can cook, all the steamy times, pregnancy surprises, an advice-giving dad, sailboat dates, doubts, cuddly additions to the family, and a HEA that will make all your wishes come true, then you will love Tuck and Maren’s story. I always look forward to more from Jessica Peterson!

Loving this series so much!

𝘐 𝘞𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘞𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘦 is a sweet, steamy, heartfelt small town, single dad/nanny, age gap, accidental pregnancy romance that had me laughing and swooning. I loved the angst, banter, and passion between Tuck and Maren.

Tuck is a single father to his precocious daughter Katie and is looking for a nanny to help out with childcare. But the one thing he is not looking for is love after being previously burned before. He’s broody, grumpy, and strong-willed, but when Maren enters his life, all bets are off.

Maren is definitely wise beyond her years but is still trying to find her place in this world. She’s smart, caring, kind, and gentle, especially when it comes to Katie. Their friendship blossomed instaneously, and Maren adored and loved that little girl with her whole heart. But Tuck was a different story.

Even though they tried to fight their attraction, they couldn’t keep their distance and caved in, thinking one night would be enough. But a couple weeks later, two pink lines show up, and they now have to figure out how to navigate the abrupt change in their lives.

This book is narrated in dual by Charlotte North and Austin Stone. I’m really glad Jessica stuck to the same narrators to continue this series because it’s a guaranteed fabulous listen. These two embodied and embraced all the angst, banter, and passion between Tuck and Maren.

Charlotte was fabulous to listen to as Maren. She portrayed Maren’s fun, loving, and upbeat personality impeccably. The connection she forged with Katie from the start was heartwarming. Charlotte depicted Maren’s pregnancy between the highs, the lows, the unknowns, and the joyous moments relatable to connect with the character. And I absolutely adored her kid's voice for Katie!

Austin is the perfect person to bring out the southern charm when it comes to small town romances. His warm and melodic voice showcased Tuck’s broody exterior but gentle interior flawlessly. His love and adoration for Katie could be felt through his performance and his walls crumbling down for Maren pulled at my heartstrings. Austin portrayed Tuck’s fears when it came to Maren’s pregnancy, which made me connect with the character on a more visceral level. Austin's ability to show an empathetic side of Tuck that would normally be kept hidden was perfection.
