Look the Part

Length: 9 hrs and 19 mins

Publisher's summary

Flint Hopkins finds the perfect tenant to rent the space above his Minneapolis-based law office.   

All the t's are crossed and i's dotted on Ellen's application. Her references are good. And she's easy on the eyes.   

Until...

Flint discovers Ellen Rodgers, Board-Certified Music Therapist, plays music. Bongos, guitars, singing - not Beethoven administered through noise-cancelling headphones.    

The cut-throat attorney serves up an eviction notice to the bubbly, constantly humming redhead who's too sexy for her own good. But luck is on Ellen's side when Flint's autistic son, Harrison, takes an instant liking to her. A single dad can't compete with guitars - and rats. Yes, she has pet rats.    

This woman...

She's annoyingly happy with a constant need to touch him-adjust his tie, button his shirt, invade his space, and mess with his mind.   

Still...

She must go.    

Their lust-hate relationship escalates into something beautiful and tragic. This sexy, romantic-comedy explores the things we want, the things we need, and the impossible decisions parents and children make to survive.   

Contains mature themes.

Fantastic Book!

This book was truly an unexpected surprise! I had it in my TBR for a while and just randomly picked up the audiobook so it could keep me busy during my 2-hour lash appointment and I was hooked from the Prologue!

This was simply beautiful and perfect and the book I didn’t know I needed it. Like I said, it was completely unexpected because I thought it would be more of a romantic comedy but I was totally wrong. While there’s lots of funny moments, and the banter between the leads is simply hilarious, this book was sooo much more. It’s about healing and second chances, it’s about leaving with regrets, it’s about allowing yourself to live after tragedy and not just exist.

Flint, oh how much I loved Flint. He was so broken, but had so much love to give. And he was such a wonderful dad. And Elle, she was just all sorts of awesome, loved her. And Harrison, I can’t even with him. And all the other side characters, Amanda, his parents, her dad. Everyone was so amazing and so supportive. It’s what family is all about.

I loved this book, so much, I went through all sorts of emotions. I cried, and books rarely make me cry. I completely and utterly loved a book about a dead spouse, freaking finally! I know this is an older book, but this is absolutely one of my top reads this year and I absolutely recommend it!

PS: The audiobook is also freaking amazing. I love Stephanie Rose but I don’t believe I’ve heard Troy Duran before but I just became an insta-fan, he was fantastic!

🔥🔥🔥Troy Duran could narrate the phone book 🔥 🔥🔥

This story will break your heart and then rebuild it. The romance is so sweet and grows from loss for both characters. It is a steamy but oh so passionate story. It has a lot of comic relief to break up the intensity of the story. A must read romance with a guaranteed HEA!

Narration was Perfect! Stephanie Rose was awesome but Troy Duran could read the phone book and melt your panties!

So much more than I was expecting.

This book was incredible. Emotional and moving. The writing was crisp and sharp. The wit was flawless. And the narration was top notch. Six stars!

Loved it!

Another wonderful Jewel E Ann story! I loved the story line, even though, as usual, I was brought to tears more than once. Simply relatable and flawed characters whose stories are woven together fantastically. Narration was perfect and I think Troy Duran just became my new favorite male performer! Well worth every minute!

1st read from this author - I will add her to my list of favorites

Recommended by another author so I thought I would give Jewel E Ann a try. I thought this book was great. Sad, sexy, smart, and funny... so funny. The characters’ banter was witty and embarrassing moments were so surprising - I literally laughter out loud. The author lightened the serious theme and situations with well placed and unique diversions. Top notch narration. Sexy times were subtle and yet still hot. That’s a talent. I look forward to my next read.

What A jewel...

What a great surprise this book was. Very moving with wonderful characters. It wasn’t too sappy or two over the top sexy. It was just right and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Narration: really good especially Troy Duran.

Very Enjoyable

BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED STORY

This is the second book I've listened to from this author. Absolutely brilliant storyline. Loved that the main characters didn't change themselves to be together despite their clear differences. Wonderfully narrated too. Great listen 🥰

superb

This novel was brilliant from start to finish, so funny and sad at the same time I was totally engrossed all the way though just loved Harrison with his health issues he made me laugh with his unfiltered comments. Ellen and Flint with their guilt and past heart heartaches keeping them apart, great HEA. Troy Duran and Stephanie Rose did a fantastic job as narrors as Flint and Ellen highly recommend

Great story, great narration

I was completely new to this author and didn’t know what to expect. But I am totally sold. I listened to the book in 2 days. It’s so funny, emotional, sad yet so extremely hopeful. The narrators did an amazing job. I am sad the book is finished. :)

I just love this author. I haven’t read any of her books before but I adore her style of writing. Simply superb. The narration was epic by Stephanie and Troy if only other narrators were as good.

Really enjoyable book

A romance tackling several mental , addiction and physical issues. Written in a witty,intelligent, sensitive way. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. Troy is great as usual, and it’s my first time with Stephanie, her happy uplifting voice is a joy. Thank you for this freebee. Now looking for more jewel, books.
