Shameless with Him

Less Than, Book 3

By: Carrie Ann Ryan

Narrated by: Samantha Cook, Jacob Morgan

New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Carrie Ann Ryan completes a sexy contemporary series with an unrequited crush on the bad boy next door.

Caleb Carr might have once been ready for commitment, but when the unexpected slams into him with the force of a two-ton truck, he knows he has to run away from anything that might be important. Zoey might well be his final temptation, but to keep her whole, he’ll walk away.

Zoey Wager has loved Caleb since they were eight. And has had her heart broken from afar repeatedly ever since. It doesn’t help that every time she sees him - even when she’s running away halfway across the world - he’s with another woman. She's watched him fall in lust her entire life. Now, she's ready to watch him fall in love. With her.

Chance encounters of the sequined kind, best friends who aren’t really just your friend, and childhood meet cutes that are anything but cute force the Carr siblings to face what life has brought them. Again.

great story

Yet another great story by C.A.R.! I love that the Montgomery's and Carr's are one big family. the bonus épilogue is great!

Shameless with Him

Audio: The narration by Jacob Morgan and Samantha Chase was flawless, they brought an already amazing book to a whole other level!

Book: I was crying all the tears when I finished Zoey & Caleb’s story! Not only for the story because That epilogue was EVERYTHING!! But I can’t believe they are over. Zoey and Caleb were the PERFECT end to the series! They’ve been part of story from Book 1, we’ve watched their relationship build and change from the sidelines but we had NO IDEA what was really going on over there. I love love love that they had seen each other in places all over, not just their home town, and I love how Caleb make up for that later on!

loved it!

Wow! Caleb and Zoey were such a great couple. I loved how CAR wrote the evolution of their knowing each other. It was definitely a great way to make you fall for them both. Watching these two connect was so addictive. I was not going to stop listening till I got to the HEA! I admit there was a very big scene where I literally had tears in my eyes. This story was the perfect companion for my daily walks. It let me escape into the story.

as a child of a parent who was a surrogate

I hated the Lacy character. she was whiney needy and had absolutely no backbone. she had unsolicited no respect for her sister or future brother in law despite their history. I loved this story that brought the MCS together but the side story made me soooooooomad. Caleb's a gem of a MC. I don't k ow if the MC female ver sion would have kept my interest. I don't know that this was worth a credit or a relisten for me.

Shameless with Him

This story pulls at your heartstrings then ties them in knots before it is over

The narrators bought the characters to life and made it very easy to get immersed in the story

Not my favorite..

Alright I’ll start off with this was not my favorite book. Don’t get me wrong the author wrote an amazing book as always. However, I couldn’t connect with Zoey the heroine of the story. For some reason the whole she’s had a crush on him for a lifetime and this “plan” she has in her head just hit me wrong and I honestly don’t know why. I understand that Caleb has had a surplus of woman in his life and that didn’t bother me. I loved the first two books of this series and expected to this one unfortunately it wasn’t one I could love and I tried very hard to. Unfortunately this one was a miss for me. I still look forward to reading more from the author and I know not every book can be a hit for each reader.

The narrators did a wonderful job bringing the story to life and painting a vivid picture of what was happening throughout the story.

Great story

The third and final book in this trilogy is just as good as the first two. You have met Zoey and Caleb in the first two books and got a glimpse and them and wondered what has been going on. In this one you get to find out. Zoey has known and had a crush on Caleb since they were children. Her whole life she has always seen him with other women. She finally wants her chance at a happy ever after and she wants it with him. Caleb has returned home to his family but hasn’t told them why. There is a lot going on with him and he doesn’t know what he is going to do. When Zoey lands back in his life he doesn’t think he should start something with her but he also can’t seem to stop himself. I loved watching their story unfold. Great characters and story.

Loved the narrators as well great job with these characters

Sweet friends to lovers romance. Great narrators!!

I love this series and I was so excited to finally be able to listen to Zoey and Caleb’s story! Theirs is a very sweet friends-to-lovers romance and with the way Zoey’s been pining after Caleb for so many years, it was wonderful to see her finally get her own chance at love with her dream guy. Zoey is a lovely heroine, very likable, the ultimate girl-next-door, though perhaps a bit too self-effacing when it comes to her sister and mother, and I’d have liked her even better if she’d stood up for herself more, however soft-spoken she might have done so. Caleb is a great guy, but he holds his cards very close to his chest, hiding in a way, from those who love him the most. I have to say I didn’t totally get Caleb’s reluctance to open up to Zoey about some of his worries and I’d have preferred it if more of the story had focused on him falling in love with Zoey, to better understand the why and when of it. His feelings came on a little too strong and sudden for me. At a certain point, Caleb messes up in a big way with regards to Zoey and that felt somewhat out of character to me. His connection with his siblings is amazing and he is not afraid to lean on them, I wish he’d have asked for their help for that particular issue too. Zoey and Caleb definitely have chemistry together and are lovable characters, seeing them interact with the other Carrs and the Montgomery clan was a lot of fun.

Narration: Samantha Cook and Jacob Morgan both did a stellar job narrating this story, as expected. They both have wonderful voices that are amazingly pleasing to listen to and match very well. I loved how they brought all these characters to life and how they gave all the characters their own unique voice. The pacing, the emotion,… it all flowed beautifully.

Absolutely delish!

Love this author she never disappoints!!
Along with these narrators yes please!! Shameless how much I loved it!

Love from afar
