In Good Company

An Ex's Brother Billionaire Romance (Pembroke Hills, Book 1)

By: Kat Singleton

Narrated by: Connor Crais, Erin Mallon

From the #1 bestselling billionaire romance author of Black Ties & White Lies comes an all new series set at an exclusive country club in the Hamptons. In Good Company is an ex's brother, billionaire, private chef, forced proximity romance.

Callahan Hastings is relentless when it comes to getting what he wants, and what he wants is me–to be his private chef in the Hamptons for the summer.

My dream job served to me on a silver platter by one of the wealthiest members of Pembroke Hills Country Club.

The only catch? He’s my ex-boyfriend’s older brother with a reputation for being as charming as he is cunning.

But Cal doesn’t take no for an answer. He draws you in with flirty smiles and extravagant promises.

I should have seen him coming, but I didn’t. I should have stayed away, but I couldn’t.

His playful touches and burning gaze have ignited a fire in me. The more I resist him, the more irresistible he becomes.

I've always known there's an expiration date on the job–an expiration date on us.

But leaving isn't going to be easy with Cal on his knees, begging me to stay...

Golden retriever billionaire

My second book by this author and still not impressed. I would call this an instant love by the MMC, not a forbidden romance. He fell fast and he fell hard while not knowing anything about her! He didn’t know where she went to school, what her parents did, that she had dead brothers!! Yet, he had not fallen for anyone in his life and he was head over heels for this girl cause she told him no once? And to try to win her love he spent tens of thousands on her without knowing who she is. Just how she looks when she orgasms. Seems strange to me.
However, the narrators were 🔥

Thoughts
I have only ever read the exes brother trope from Kat Singleton and it is one of my favorite things that she writes. I love so many things about this. Cal is down bad for Lucy right out of the gate and oh man it was so good. He was so soft for her and he just wanted to do anything he could do for her, and he had the money to do it. Lucy had so much she was holding on to that Cal really just supported her through. My only complaint is that Cal’s backstory had a little more depth to it. We never really got any of his story and I think that would have added so much to the story. I loved the resolution between Cal and Oliver at the end and I’m glad it didn’t end up being drama for dramas sake. The conclusion of the whole story was *chef kiss* it was so soft and sweet.

Workplace Romance

This story started well but went downhill after Lucy and Cal gave in to their mutual lining. Cal falls first, and Lucy needs to work on her communication skills. I’d recommend reading about Margo and Beck from Black Ties and White Lies for an ex-brother romance over this.

Fun read!

The story was cute & The duet narration was done very well. Perfect to be read as a palate cleanser or something light and easy if that’s your speed.

Cute Book

It is a really cute book… I gave performance a 4⭐️ because there are a lot of pauses with the female lead.

This girl was an idiot!

What a dumb woman. She doesn’t deserve him. He was such a sweet guy and I don’t think she had any real reason to push him away. She didn’t even want to try. She’s lucky he stuck it out for her. So, not a fan of the MFC, but huge fan of Cal. I couldn’t give it more than 3 stars because I was just appalled at her behavior and was captured by the story but enjoyed the hit sex they had. And Connor Crais has such a sexy voice.

Lucy and Cal

In Good Company is the first book in the Pembroke Hills series, and follows Lucy and Cal's journey to love. Lucy is an aspiring chef with big dreams and a bigger heart. She lands what seems like the perfect gig—cooking for billionaire Callahan 'Cal' Hastings while spending the summer in the Hamptons. There's just one problem: Cal is her ex-boyfriend’s older brother, and Lucy never planned on falling head over heels for him. The chemistry between Lucy and Cal was off the charts. Their playful banter had me smiling ear to ear, and their undeniable chemistry made for some delicious steamy scenes. Cal's determined pursuit balanced perfectly with Lucy's feisty yet vulnerable nature, and I loved the irresistible dynamic their different personalities created. Lucy is an incredibly relatable character. She is strong, ambitious, and will do anything for those she cares about. I loved Lucy and Cal's slow-burn romance. Watching them genuinely fall for each other had my heart melting. This story is fun, steamy, and packed with emotional depth. I'm looking forward to what comes next for the Pembroke Hills crew.

Narration:
Erin Mallon and Connor Crais perform this audiobook in duet style narration. Their performances were amazing. I loved how well they portrayed the characters and brought them to life. Erin and Connor brought the tension, chemistry, and the fun banter. Connor saying "Lucy Baby" and "Good Girl" has been playing on repeat in my head. Erin and Connor are a fun narrating duo to listen to, and I highly recommend this audiobook.

male character and male narrator

This was a nice read but didn't amaze me. I wish there was a conflict somewhere in the story. When at the end there is one the female main character just ended up frustrating me. The male character though I loved throughout and the narrator did a great job!

Skip this one

I love these narrators. I did not like Lucy. Lucy to me made this story unbearable!

Cute!

This story was sweet and spicy. Cal is a percect book boyfriend. I thought the dual narrator was done perfectly!
