A Best Friends to Lovers Standalone (Kings of Cypress Pointe)

By: Rachel Jonas, Nikki Thorne

Narrated by: Angel Pean, Blake Lockheart, Sarah Puckett

Length: 9 hrs and 7 mins

Publisher's summary

Dane Golden - best friend. Temptation in football cleats. Roommate?

I’m screwed.

His followers don’t call him Pretty Boy D for nothing. The guy is, literally, God’s gift to women. I should know. I’ve watched chicks throw themselves at him since puberty.

Sharing his loft should be simple. Easy. But shortly after I settle in, we realize being "just friends" was so much easier when we weren’t sleeping under the same roof.

Seven years of thinking we had this down to a science goes out the window the night Dane sees my “Never Have I Ever” list. Now, he’s on a mission to help me cross off the top four items. Some of which aren’t quite as innocent as he’d expect.

What he’s proposing will break the rules we agreed to when I first came to stay here. He wants me to give in, to let my guard down, and face my feelings for once. At least, that’s what that wicked look in his eyes and the mounting heat between us suggests.

This isn’t how I imagined being roommates would go. But a girl can only stare temptation in its green eyes for so long and not weaken.

My best friend wants to have his way with me, and, right or wrong...I think I might let him.

Pretty Boy D is a full-length stand-alone novel. This book can absolutely be heard on its own, but when you’re done, it’s recommended that you check out more from the Golden triplets and Joss in the complete enemies-to-lovers trilogy Kings of Cypress Prep.

Do you enjoy the frustratingly hot push and pull of a good-friends-to-lovers or roommates-to-lovers romance? Then you’ll love getting to know Dane and Joss. Due to adult themes and sexual situations, this one’s only for the 18+ crowd. Expect an HEA and no trigger warnings needed.

Amazing

I loved this friends to lovers romance.

First off let's take a second to appreciate tge gorgeous cover 😍😍😍

Dane and Joss's story was emotional, Sexy and I loved the chemistry between them.

The narration was amazing!

More Golden Greatness! Fabulous Story & Narration🎧

The “Kings of Cypress Prep” is one of my favorite series in 2021 and the Golden brothers some of my favorite characters, the first three books are mainly West and Blue’s story but West’s brothers Dane and Sterling were support characters and were a constant in those books but we never got their full story and I am so happy that Rachel Jonas and Nikki Thorne decided to spinoff and give Dane and Silver their own books. This book stands on its own, but I recommend the first three books, they are amazing and it is great to spend time with these characters. Dane and Joss have been best friends since they were 12 years old, though Dane wanted it to be more, Joss never wanted that. I could not understand why Joss fought the connection and the chemistry between them, she has hid that reason from everyone but herself. Now that H.S. is over, the Golden brothers are going their own way, West is living with Blue, Dane got his own place and Sterling wants the whole campus life experience when college starts in the fall. Dane continues to build up his social media following, making a career out of being an influencer, even hiring someone to help him gain more exposure, she recommenced he hire someone to manage his social media accounts and he knows the perfect person, the one who knows him best, Joss. When Joss’ father gives her an ultimatum that if she does not move with them, she will be cut off, she stands up to him and tells him no and takes up Dane on his job offer and a place to live. She was not sure if it was the wise thing to do, but she put her insecurities to the side and went with it. l was rooting for these two and I loved how everything played out in this fabulous best friends to lovers romance, the story is both cleverly and beautifully plotted with plenty of drama, heartfelt and emotions moments, a touch of angst and a slow burn and memorable romance. Rachel Jonas and Nikki Thorne, thank you for another amazing novel and emotional rollercoaster ride, I loved every minute of it. It was great to see the other characters from the first three books, especially Pandora, who continues to bring it on social media.

🎧📚🎧 And for the amazing narration, the authors chose the perfect cast to bring their story and characters rot life. Angel Pean, Blake Lockheart and Sarah Puckett are talented narrators and versatile voice artists. They have a complete understanding of the characters they portray, give each a voice that fits that character’s person to a tee and sound believable in every role they play, and just as I pictured the characters to sound. They set the perfect tone for the story and capture all the characters’ emotions and project them into their performance. Angel Pean played Joss with perfection and Blake Lockheart did the same for Dane, both Ryder, both were great playing the roles of the secondary characters as well. And of course Sarah Puckett nails it as Pandora. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another exceptional listen.

Joss and Dane have been best friends since they were 12. Will that change now that they're older? These two characters are so beautiful together and I'm rooting for them. I hope they realize they are meant to be together before it's to late. Really loving this collaboration and look forward to more books by both of these authors. Loved the narration job.

And can I just say I'm a bit disappointed 😞 at the end? I mean, I so wanted there to be a next chapter. I was so hoping she came out pregnant. But still, this was a good book. I can't wait to see what's going on with the last brother. Oh boy, how will his story end up? 🤔😏

Pretty Boy D

Okay so this book is about on of the Golden Boys and I highly recommend listening to that series first before this book. The only reason I say that is, because you well know why I am absolutely obsessed with the Golden Boys and want all of them to myself. 100% live this book by Rachel and Nikki. Blake, Angel. and Sarah did an incredible job narrating this book!

Pretty Boy D

I loved the Kings of Cypress Prep series. The first 3 books were about Blue and Wes. We got to see glimpses of Joss and Dain. The book gave me more then I could have ever imagined. Joss and Dain are so perfect together. Can't wait to get Sterling's book! Angel Pean, Blake Lockheart, and Sarah Puckett did fantastic job narrating this book.

Fantastic romance!💜

I loved this story. Longtime friends to lovers is so romantic. Their chemistry is on fire. I enjoyed all the characters in this story.
The narration was absolutely perfect. All the narrators performed wonderfully.
This is book 4 with an HEA and can be read as a standalone.
I recommend this book!

Authors do not disappoint in this take off

I received this audiobook free for an honest review as a member of Pink Flamingo Productions review team. Loved this series. The first three were a trilogy and this 4th book is a standalone. However, it is nice to know the characters in the previous books. The authors did a great job of keeping the listener's/reader's interest. The relationship between Dane and Joss started when they were kids and best friends. As their relationship grows and they both fight it, minimal angst shows its ugly head, but makes this story exciting. Love what these authors give us. This is quality writing. The narrators did a great job. Pandora ties these characters together and adds suspense to the story, wondering what she will do next. Looking for more.

Amazing Series!

This is the fourth book in the amazing Kings of Cypress World, and the Golden triplets (West, Dane and Sterling). You can listen to this story has a standalone, but believe me, you don’t want to miss Blue and West's trilogy. I loved Joss and Dane's friends to lovers romance. Joss is a beautiful character, kind, and supportive. Dane, the second triplet, is handsome, charming, and caring. They are hot and perfect together. I liked their frustrating push and pull relationship. The storyline has secrets, mystery, and twists and turns. The supporting characters are great. The Queen Pandora is an amazing gossip girl! I was so happy to see her again! She is such an enigmatic character. Angel Pean, Blake Lockheart and Sarah Puckett did a fantastic job on the dual narration. Blake Lockheart and Sarah Puckett are already on my list of favorite narrators. They are perfect as Dane and Queen Pandora! Angel Pean is a new narrator to me. I love her voice and performance as Joss! This is a great production. Looking forward to listening to Mr. Silver, the third triplet, in the next book in the series. I love Rachel Jonas and Nikki Thorne's writing, they never disappoint! #TheFlock #AudiobookObsession #PinkFlamingoProductions

Loved it!

Pretty Boy D is the much-anticipated story of Joss and Dane and a marvellous collaboration between Rachel Jonas and Nikki Thorne. Joss and Dane's story is an exhilarating ride, jampacked with drama, emotional turmoil, angst, steam and surprising twists. I absolutely adore Joss; she is sweet and shy. Dane is her opposite, bold, arrogant, popular both in school and social media. Despite their differences, the magnetic force of their attraction was one they couldn't deny. They went from friends to friends with benefits, then to so much more, an inevitable outcome for the two of them.

Pretty Boy D is a wonderfully written slow-burn best-friends to romance and a fantastic addition to the Kings of Cypress Pointe series. I was wholly captivated and emotionally invested in Joss and Dane's journey. They had to overcome some hurdles, mainly of the communication variety. A couple of times, I got frustrated, had to pause the book, and take a breath before continuing the story. Also, there is a big reveal which made me definitely excited about the next book in the series.

The audiobook is brilliantly narrated. Angel Pean and Blake Lockheart are incredible performers, portraying the characters' distinct personalities and emotions flawlessly. They definitely breathed life into the cast and made to story even more enjoyable. Sarah Puckett is a star and never disappoints. All in all, Pretty Boy D was an entertaining, unpredictable, and highly enjoyable listen, one I'm strongly recommending.

Great story and characters

This is my first in this series, and I think it would've been better if I'd either read or listened to Blu and Wests story beforehand. But, with that being said, I was quickly brought up to speed and fell HARD for both Joss and Dane. Both are amazing characters, with such a believable and very human issues - I reckon. Dane is my new favorite book-boyfriend, so sweet, attentive and loyal. This is a great story, which I highly recommend.
The mix of the three narrators is impeccable, they did a great job and I enjoyed their way of bringing the characters to life.

My Thoughts on Pretty Boy D

This friends-to-lovers story ended up being everything I hoped for and more. Dane was gentle, and supportive and just solid. He felt deeply and his devotion and dedication to Joss was unshakable. This story was a good contrast to the previous three books in the series even though I loved those too. Joss was a great character too and getting to peek into her head so much really helped to understand why she helped back for so long. Their story had an excellent flow and immensely satisfying ending.
I truly enjoyed the narration on this one as well. Angela Peen was a new to me voice but I was impressed. I even liked her guy tone. Blake Lockheart and Sarah Puckett were also fantastic. I’ve loved them in plenty of other books and getting them as more of Pandora and newly as Dane didn’t change how much I loved them in the slightest.

Pretty Boy D! A very awaited story…

Dane, the model of the triplets, has always had a thing for his bff Joss. Joss is very smart and beautiful, but now in college they are both finding their way… to each other. After her father’s scandal and his father’s crimes, they need to look out for each other. This a sexy stand alone, long awaited by yours truly because who wouldn’t want to know how they worked out. I enjoyed every chapter and the narration was awesome.

Dane and Joss!

When Joss was 12 years old Dane came into her life and not only was he her hero he became her best friend. Since then the feelings she has for him have turned into something deeper but due to her past she is afraid of destroying the best relationship in her life. When a scandal has her parents moving back to Haiti she doesn’t want to give up the life she has built or Dane so her feelings for Dane are going to be tested when they find themselves roommates.

Dane is a football star and his studly looks have turned into a modelling career so he could have his choice of women but the only woman he wants is Joss. Having her move in will allow them to spend even more time together but when he sees the list of how she wants to assert her independence from her parents he hopes that helping her out will finally allow Joss to finally acknowledge they are meant to be more than friends.

Joss and Dane have always belonged together and has always been what they both wanted but they definitely had some turmoil before they were willing to admit it to each other and it was great to catch up with the other characters we know and love. I enjoyed the performance of the narrators as they brought out the angst of the story and had you empathizing with the characters. 🎧 Audiobook Obsession

Dane and Jos....for the win!!!!

Just when I thought I couldn't love a couple more than Blu & West, Rachel and Nikki give us the ultimate couple, Dane & Jos. If you've read the first part of this series, you know these two were meant for each other, they just needed a little force of hand.

Jos, she's been in the triplets circle for what seems like forever. She shares a closeness with all of them, but what she shares with Dane is beyond that BFF bond.

Dane, one of the triplets, known for his raunchy escapades. One thing not too many know is that he has always had a thing for his BFF, and he is starting to realize she does too.

Jos has some issues with her parents that leave her needing to move out. Dane just so happened to acquire his own spot now and has some extra room and oh he is also in need of an assistant at work. Who better to fill both these slots, than his BFF.

We were taken on a roller coaster of a ride here and it was freaking good. There were times I wanted to smush their heads together and say just do it will ya!!! But our couple has some obstacles they need to overcome first, can they, will they, do they really want to? Read/Listen on and find out.

Ahhhh I absolutely have been enjoying this series in audio. I am totally obsessed with the Gossip Girl vibe known as Pandora. Love that the audio has 3 narrators, Angel Pean , Blake Lockheart , and Sarah Puckett who all do an amazing job.

This is a brilliant series

I seriously can’t get enough of these characters. They are building into well-rounded interesting characters. I really enjoy the dynamics between the different couples and how their story continues to grow even as the books move on. A fantastic performance from all three narrators.

Pandora’s Box is open again

Pretty Boy D by Rachel Jonas, Nikki Thorne
Kings of Cypress Pointe Book 1

Narration by Blake Lockheart, Angel Péan and Sarah Puckett.

Started December 30th finished up on the 31st
Dane and Joss

Next series of the triplets of Cypress Pointe. Here we start the story of Joss and Dane. I gotta admit that I was so excited for these two’s story. It was a slow burn change from long time friends to lovers that I really needed to happen after West and Blues’ series. These two have been BFFs since Dane stood up for her at 12 years old and have been inseparable ever since.

Dane is sexy, self assured and working his modelling career. While Joss is shy and innocent and is trying to face her demons from when Pandora puts her father’s unfaithfulness to the forefront. At times I wanted to shake each of these two . And with Pandora influencing everyone’s actions these two have things to learn about each other and how to trust each other. Dane at times causes Joss worry and confusion with his relationship with his fellow model Shauna but then Joss does that as well with Carlos. I loved how these two grew up as their relationship grew. Dane was amazing at building Joss’s confidence and comfort with her ‘never did I ever’ list of to-do’s. These two are seriously sexy with each other and I loved they finally came together.

Angel is new to me yet so we’ll matched with her performance as Joss. Bringing out all her emotions and feelings so well that it really captures the heart of their story. Blake was amazing as Dane, fierce and loyal to his friendship and so sweet teaching Joss how her body and heart were always his, was swoony and real. Sarah’s Pandora is flawless and still I don’t have a clue as to how Pandora gets her information but I found her meddling too much at times yet she makes everyone open their eyes to everything that is happening in Cypress Pointe and she protects the right people when she needs to.

This series is going to be awesome just as the series on West and Blue were. Excited for Sterling’s story and who will be his forever love.

Best Friends to Lovers?

My favorite trope comes into play in this series Joss my favorite character and Dane finally get their story told. Best friends since the age of twelve their feelings for each other reach their peak. Family issues with Joss is a big part of this book her father is a piece of crap and her mother is no better because she basically has no voice. An ultimatum forces Joss to make a decision that alters her present and could be the start of a beautiful future. Love this series cannot wait to see where the series goes next with Sterling.

Story well written and great narration
