Publisher's Summary

His so-called mate thinks it’s fate. Toby has other ideas. 

When Toby Sanders shows up to interview for a teaching job at a mysterious estate, he’s not expecting his world to flip upside down and backward. 

Shifters are real...and the hottest, most protective wolf of all is claiming him as a mate.  

Toby can’t deny that Brooks is everything he ever wanted and never thought he could have - loving, strong, drop-dead gorgeous - or that the two little girls Brooks wants to adopt give Toby a glimpse of the family he’s always dreamed of....

But how the heck is he supposed to believe in this mating magic stuff when life has taught him that the only person he can count on is himself? 

As dangers from multiple sources threaten everything he’s come to care about, Toby learns that being part of a pack isn’t just about accepting his fate, it’s about choice: choosing to trust Brooks, choosing to believe in himself, and choosing to fight for the life and love he deserves, even if he has to cross the entire fae realm to do it.

Very entertaining!

One of the more touching books of the series. Laugh out loud moments whenever Nick is involved and Toby is a sentimental character, wonderful story to see his touching story with Brooks. Loved this.

Loving this series!

I absolutely love this spin off series! Stop Kidding Around was a perfect follow up to All Kidding Aside. I adored Brooks and Toby and their girls, Marigold and Daisy. It was a sweet and funny paranormal romance with a twist of danger. The narration was perfect and brought the story to life even more.

Brooks and Toby

This was a great follow up, I really hope this isn’t the end of the series, I need to know more about Ollie and the orange and black fur that faded into the woods. The story had it all, laughs, love, the fae realm. Brooks and Toby are cavity inducing they’re so sweet. A really fun story. Read the entire series, it’s awesome.

Job interview, what job interview?


Where do I start? The characters are well developed with great personalities. Toby is a human thrown into a world full of shifters and magic. That alone is a story of success.

Then he meets Brooks, who insists that he's Toby's mate. But the guy is a wolf, which is all surreal to Toby.

Then you add two poor orphans and all the other side characters. You then have a great story.

OH, and some hot sex. Not sure if I mentioned that. Would I recommend it? That would be a yes... Lol
I can't wait for book three to come out either in book or audio form. I just need more.

The narration was on point, but Michael Dean never disappoints me. I did, however, speed up to 1.15 on Audible, which is my norm.

Great addition to the series!

This is a great addition to this spin-off/continuation on The Chosen One Universe. As any of the book on the series, Toby and Brooks love story kept me at the edge of my seat the whole time. The plot thickened becoming more complex and even more interesting, the worlds collided and Toby's arrival changed the dynamic of the pack. Every book is better than the previous one and a wonderful treat for all the fans of the series like myself. Regarding the narration, in my opinion Mr Dean really got the gist of the series and the characters and his amazing performance brought the characters alive. I enjoyed a lot his wonderful voice and beautiful acting. I can't wait for more on this Universe and I hope Mr Dean will continue being the narrator. Loved it!

Another solid audio

Michael does it again returning to the voices previously used to give a continuation of the series. A stellar performance.

The story continues

I enjoyed reading this book, but when listening to the story I personally found it a little bit lacking in strength in comperission to other books by this author. It is still a great, fantastical and magical world with a huge dose of love for the kids, pack and ofcourse between Toby and Brooks.4*

For some reason or another I did not enjoy the narratiion as much as I usually do the firat time I listened to the book. The second time a while later I did enjoy it way better and discoveres more nuances. So I change performance to 5*
Overall 4,5*
