Story
Growing up, I knew my older brother’s best friend thought of me as “Logan’s kid sister”. For me, though, our next-door neighbor Colin felt like anything but a sibling. Whenever I spied on him through my bedroom window, as he banged away, shirtless, on his drum kit, I felt sensations inside me I’d never felt for my actual brother. But when we moved away and Colin’s band took off like a rocket, I knew my tweener fantasies would never become a reality.

Story
I’ve tried to like Adrian Savage, the mercurial frontman for Fugitive Summer, while serving as his band’s opening act on tour. We’re stuck together for three months, after all. And I’m well aware I’m lucky to be here. But it’s proved impossible. He’s far too rude and dismissive a guy to get along with. And way too good at getting under my skin. In fact, at this point, I think it’s fair to say I downright hate his guts.

Story
It was lyrics at first sight when I saw Violet Rhodes across that crowded party. She was lights and darks, swirled together. Music in motion. And all of it while looking like a hitwoman at an Elvis convention. I had nothing to offer the intriguing girl but a one-night stand. I figured I’d revel in my last night of anonymity before my first tour and shoot her a quick “we’ll always have LA!” good-bye the next morning. But nothing went according to plan.

Story
Reed freaking Rivers. I wouldn’t trust a word out of the arrogant music mogul’s mouth if his gold-plated tongue were notarized. The man with the Midas touch would say anything to get me into his bed, and I know it. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want him to succeed. Indeed, the moment I laid eyes on Reed while he was speaking at an on-campus event I’d crashed, my body physically ached to feel his golden fingers - and tongue - all over me.

The minute Josh Faraday meets feisty, vivacious Kat Morgan, he wants her. Not for a relationship, of course. He doesn’t do those. He wants her in his bed. But, to his shock and extreme frustration, Kat won’t play by Josh’s rules like all the others. No, this stubborn woman declares she won't so much as kiss Josh until he divulges some highly personal information.... But it's something Josh has never told anyone, and won't be telling Kat. Not over his dead body, no matter how gorgeous and sexy she is.

Story
If people have polar opposites, Luca Rossi is mine. His butt is in the baseball hall of fame. Mine's comfortably seated in the hall of lame. When he's not snagging fly balls out in center field, he's modeling in shampoo commercials. I once jammed my own finger while stirring cookie dough, and sometimes I forget shampoo is a thing. He's a total cynic when it comes to love. I make a living writing love stories. But after my latest broken engagement (no, I don't want to talk about how many times that's happened), it's clear he's exactly the man I need.

The first time I met Merrick Crawford was during my job interview. Well, technically, I’d met him 20 minutes earlier when he’d barged into a fitting room a few doors down from my appointment. I yelled. He yelled. After an argument while standing in my bra, I proceeded to smash the door into the gorgeous jerk, trying to yank it shut. As you might imagine, I was freaked out when I discovered that the rude guy was my potential new boss. Yet he didn’t seem to recognize me. Or so I thought.... Until we wound up bickering again during my interview and he told me to go sniff my armpit.

I’m a kindergarten teacher and a (reasonably) responsible adult. I should know better than to get tipsy and draft a fake text listing all the dirty things I wish Officer Cole Mitchell would do to me. I wasn’t supposed to hit send. And he wasn’t supposed to see it.

Which makes sense, right? A girl as beautiful and brilliant as Eden Wynn doesn’t end up with a rebel like me. I expected them to live happily ever after, but that's not what happened. She's back in my life - and tempting me like no one else has. And while I'm certain I'll only tarnish her shine, I want her.

Charlotte Taylor has three automatic strikes in my book: 1) She hates me. She also claims that I'm a "domineering jerk with a huge, overbearing ego". (I do have something huge. It's not my ego, though.) 2) She takes our mandatory tutoring sessions way too seriously. 3) She's sexy as hell...and a virgin. At least those were her strikes before our study sessions started lasting longer than they were supposed to. Until one innocent kiss became a hundred dirty ones, and until she became the first woman I ever fell hard for.

Publisher's Summary
I met Alessandra at a party. Tried to impress her. Was almost positive I was going to fail.
I think I said something along the lines of, “I’m a Goat called Fish who’s hung like a bull - but not really. I’m actually pretty average.” Smooth. I know. Try not to be jealous.
When she laughed - and I mean, really laughed - I knew she wasn’t like the other girls I’d been meeting on tour. Hell, she wasn’t even in the same stratosphere as those fangirls and gold-diggers.
At one point during the party, Alessandra said, “There’s nothing like a girl’s first love.” I knew she was talking about the first smash hit by my band, 22 Goats. Alessandra said it was the first song she’d heard by us and it “hit her like a ton of bricks”. Ironic, seeing as how I was having the same reaction from being in her presence.
I made it my mission to impress her. Give her the kiss of a lifetime that night. But since I’ve always been the dude with zero game, nothing went according to plan.
I’m not giving up, though. I’m going to win this girl over. I’m done sitting on the sidelines, watching the bad boy getting the girl. This time, the nice guy will finish first. Even if it’s the last thing he’ll do.

Super sweet romance that leave you happy & smiling
A romance that starts includes a scene from the Reed Rivers/Georgina /Liar trilogy that introduces the star struck couple. Matthew Fishbine or Fish is the shy, sometimes awkward, backup singer and Base guitar player for successful 22 Goats rock band when he meets aspiring singer-songwriter Alessandra, Georgina’s 19 year old stepsister at a party Reed is hosting. He is “ smitten” at first sight. She is a sweet, beautiful, nervous unsure virgin who is captivated by Matthew the sweet guy as well as attracted to Fish, the rock star. This is their love story, the story of her rise to fame, and how they learn to make music together on stage and through life. It is a feel good story with some hot scenes, a couple musical numbers, and characters from the Morgan Brother books (looking forward to reading those) as well as Reed and Georgina’s trilogy story.
The narration is excellent, and could only have been better had it been performed duet style. It would be a great candidate for a Lifetime movie or while it is too sexy for what Hallmark currently produces it could be a breakout for them with its happily ever after ending.
This is a stand alone with minor fretting but no drama Unlike Reed and Georgina’s previous trilogy. The characters are very refreshingly innocent and unbelievably nice; this story is like a bite of a favorite dessert, satisfying but leaving you wanting more!

Just a wonderful, feel good, happy listen.
I don't write reviews very often but for this sweet book I will. While this is not the greatest book that has ever been written it is however a genuine uncomplicated young love sweet story. I found myself having a cheesy grin on my face throughout the entire book. Romance novels tend to have such over complicated plots and even more over complicated emotional baggage that a reader is often left going "wtf....is wrong with you people?" Simply put they can often just totally miss the mark on any forms of reality and because of that "norm" finding this book to be that total opposite was so refreshing. it's probably why I liked this story as much as I did.

Not an Alpha Male Romance
If your thing is alpha males only, this one is not for you. That being said, this is a really sweet and romantic book with basically no angst. I’m an alpha male fan but still like the sugary sweet ones too. Most romance novels have a little cheese to them and that’s ok...I will say this was a little “over the top” cheesy at times. I could have done with a little less of some of the silly nicknames like “my lioness” and “lover” over and over but all in all it was a good read. Enjoyable and lighthearted. Good narration as well. I also liked getting little glimpses into the Morgan family from previous series.

THE BEST AUDIO YOU COULD SPEND A CREDIT ON
OMG do I regret not listening to this sooner. Fish is absolutely everything I thought he would be and I adore him.
I love a good Beta hero and Smitten delivered on that. It’s this adorable, swoony, no angst, first love story. Fish and Alessandra are the cutest as they get to know each other through long phone conversations and work through the awkwardness of bring physically intimate with someone for the first time. The way that they love and support each other is *chef’s kiss* I will be re-listening to this one all the time.
Narration: Tim Paige is absolutely perfectly cast as Fish and I love his narration. Andi Ardnt is also one of my favorite narrators.
Bonus is that Lauren Rowe has stepped up her audio game and fully produced songs to go along with the books in the Reed Rivers universe so you get Fish and Alessandra’s hit “Smitten” as part of this audiobook.’

Nice book, even greater audiobook
Though it’s a little too Mary Sue/Gary Stu, I still enjoyed it. I enjoyed the sexy and the cute, mostly.
Neither Alessandra nor Matthew seemed to have any flaw at all, and it became a little boring. Sure, I can do without angsty drama but there needs to be at least some tension and conflict. There was barely any of that here. The little there was was resolved quickly. Matthew just knew Alessandra would be talented without listening to her, and guess what, she was. So incredibly so that every celebrity in the vicinity wanted to be part of her rising career even before she released her first song. As for Matthew, he was perfect boyfriend material from the start—even though he had been rejected his whole life. And talk about insecurities !
I wasn’t much troubled with the participation of characters from other books by the same author. They were well introduced and I was never confused.
Beware, cuteness overload ahead. The interactions between Fish and Alessandra were sweet and adorable. Until they weren’t—they sure bring the sexy ! It wasn’t exactly a slow burn, but there was a good amount of wait in their relationship. Once they become physical, it’s hot. Very hot. Though it felt a bit out of character for Alessandra.
The audio is a little treasure. Both narrators are incredibly talented, and cherry on top… there are songs ! It’d have been a crime for a rock star romance not to have any. And they’re catchy. And the cute and the sexy I talked about above ? They deliver it plenty. A nice book, but an even greater audiobook.

Totally smitten
This love story was beyond adorable.
The audio was incredibly done, with wonderful narration performances from Andi Arendt and Tim Paige. I wish all romance audio books were this well done. And the songs... sigh. Totally smitten with Smitten.

🎧 Alessandra and Fish/Matthew 🎧
Sweeter than sweet, first-love/rockstar romance set in the Megan Family/Riiver Records world., with full production singing performances as an added bonus.
Tim Paige's style is reminiscent of John Lane's so he fits right in.

*gag*. I had to quit after 5 hours, it was so non-stop, sickly sweet. Sorry, but I hated it. Nothing but two kids in the throes of first love. I am going to assume (hope) something more interesting is going to happen during the rest of the book, but I won’t invest any more time in it to find out.
Great performances by both narrators.

Loved loved loved!
After reading every book in the Faraday/Morgan/Rivers collection this didn’t disappoint and I’m left with that empty feeling after being so immersed in a book world!
Please tell me Colins book is next? 🙏🏼

love love love
I have listened to so many audio books with rockstars lately and though it would be cool to hear the music but understood the extra production costs. I was pleasantly surprise music and singing was included in this story, it really enhanced the listening experience. tanks for goimg the extra mile, you guys rocked it!

My first Lauren Rowe book and I’m hooked.
This book came up in a recommendation list and I took a chance and listened to it on Audible. I think it was a soft sweet kind of romance and so easy to listen to. I was so excited to actually hear singing and songs on the audio book. It said it was a stand alone but I’ve discovered previous books with all the characters from this book and a website with songs and video clips. I was so excited 😆 I’ve just downloaded all the other books and I’m in for a marathon. I really enjoyed this book.

Loved Getting Smitten
What a great journey this book was. I enjoyed every minute of Fish & Alessandra's story. It was funny, romantic, low on drama,and I loved the addition of the live music. I listened in one setting I could not put it down!
I know this book is marketed as a standalone but I can honestly say I feel I got a much richer experience because I knew the many secondary characters, and was familiar with the meaning and lyrics behind the bands earlier songs. I would suggest pairing this read with at the least 'Rockstar' and then the 'Liar' series if you can but I can equally see that you could still enjoy the book without them.
Jeepers Lauren Rowe can write! I found the pace of this book perfect, it never felt rushed or drawn out. There were some larger than I'm used to time jumps and who know's maybe these gaps will be filled with 'Colin's' story (fingers crossed).
One of my biggest Lauren Rowe loves from her last few books has been not rushing the ending. The last 1 1/2 hours was dedicated to the HEA, I really appreciated it...nothing worse then a heap of drama and build up and then 10 minutes of HEA.
I can't wait for her next book!

totally smitten with this book
This is one of the sweetest, loveliest, romantic, swoon-worthy,and charming love story I have read. I loved that there was no drama in the storyline, just two wonderful people falling in love and finding themselves and what's important to them in the process. Loved that the audio version included some songs. Truly excellent. Loved loved loved it!
