The Bluff

Calamity Montana

De: Devney Perry

Narrado por: Vanessa Edwin, Aiden Snow

As Calamity’s newest resident, Everly Christian thought life in small-town Montana would be dull and tame—and she needs a little mundane after the last few chaotic years. But one night, boredom drives her to the local bar, where she finds herself sitting beside a handsome and mysterious artist.

The man is anything but dull and tame, especially in the bedroom, and when she steps out of his shower and overhears his conversation, life gets interesting again.

Reese Huxley needs a wife.

And why shouldn’t Everly be the bride?

She’s got her reasons for agreeing to the hasty nuptials—reasons she’s keeping to herself. As long as she can stop herself from falling in love with her husband, she’ll make it out of this sham marriage in one piece. But Everly has a weakness for wayward men, and the more Hux pushes her away, the more she realizes this bluff is anything but a lie.

🎧🎧AUDIO REVIEW🎧🎧

OVERALL REVIEW & RATING: 5 STARS

Since April 2020, when I first discovered Devney Perry’s wizardry, I’ve experienced about 13 or so of her stories and not one single time have I been even close to disappointed. Do with that little tidbit what you will :)

PERFORMANCE REVIEW & RATING: 5 STARS

Aiden Snow was perfect as Reese Huxley and Vanessa Edwin was ridiculously perfect with her narration of Everly Christian! They made an incredible team. They brought this story to life and managed to catapult this already incredible storyline to the next level with their voices! WELL DONE!

STORY REVIEW & RATING: 4.8 STARS

This series is old enough now that I feel I can say what I need to say in my review without worrying about spoiler tags so here goes. Everly & Hux were two ‘lost’ souls in their own right who fit perfectly for each other. They provided the exact ‘shelter’ the other needed to help them overcome and move thru the scars of their pasts. Where Hux was hard and jagged with sharp edges, Everyly was soft and smooth, like a balm to his soul. Everly needed to feel protected and wanted and that’s exactly what Hux provided for her, even when neither of them realized it.

This story is what I would call emotionally driven and it was also understated in its passion and romance. It was absolutely perfect for the characters that Devney created as Hux & Everly.

I loved everything about this story except this tiny minor thing not worth explaining but that’s why it says 4.8 stars LOL

Love Calamity, love Everly&Hux, Love the narrators

I read and loved the first book in the series and was exited for the Bluff. When I saw Vanessa Edwin was narrating this one, I knew I had to get the audio version. It didn't disappoint. Both narrators did an amazing job bringing the characters and story to life.
I love Devney Perry/Willa Nash writing. She has the ability to draw you in and get you to relate to the characters and really feel the emotions. there is no shallow in her stories, they run deep. Add to that an amazing narration and you get a perfect experience. Loved it!

Loved it

I really enjoyed this story about a father getting a second chance with his daughter and with love. While Everly and Hux's relationship may have started out as a "bluff" it did grow into something real, it just took them both sometime to realize that.

My favorite of this series.

Definitely my favorite of this series! Scorching hot chemistry while pulling at your heartstrings. A must listen, narration is fantastic.

Marriage of convenience, small town romance!

The Bluff is the second book in the Calamity Montana series and this one was a great intro to the small town series. This one starts with a one night stand and turns into a marriage of convenience!

Everly followed her best friend Lucy (heroine of book 1) to Calamity Montana. Feeling a little aimless and not sure what she wants to do with her life, she just starts settling into Calamity when she has one night of fun with Reese Huxley. Besides his art, Hux only focus is trying to get custody of his 16-year old daughter Savannah. Because of his ex, Hux didn’t even know about his daughter right away, and since he’s an ex-con and has a record, things are complicated for him to gain custody. After one night with Everly turns into a friends-with-benefits situation, Everly is around the day Hux’s lawyer jokes he might have a better chance of gaining custody if he remarried. Hux can’t believe when Everly says she’ll marry him to help out.

I love a marriage of convenience romance and this one was so good. Seeing Hux and Everly start to get to know one another after being married was fun. I really liked Hux’s relationship with his daughter Savannah and trying to be there for her. Loved how he is an artist, he sells his pieces and has a local gallery after learning art and taking classes in prison. I loved Everly and how much she wants to help Hux and Savannah. Hux did drive me bonkers at the end when he doubts Everly and doesn’t believe her. But otherwise I really enjoyed this story!

Great follow to The Bribe.

Great follow up to The Bribe. Well selected actors to read story! So very happy audio book was released together with print form. I have to listen to books, so I want all books released in audio format!! I love series better than stand-alone books. I get invested in the characters and the town. I love Calamity & its residents. I also like the references to Prescott, Montana & the Jamison Valley series. I’m ready to see what happens to Karregon. Willa Nash (& Devney Perry) will pull you into the story & make you want to be a part of it. Top of my favorite authors list!!

Wonderful!

Absolutely lovely and relatable story filled with angst, passion, live and redemption with a beautiful HEA. Willa Nash does it again. Love this series!

AMAZING!!

The push and pull between Everly and Hux was so powerful. From moment one you could tell that they were meant to be together. They both fought against love and being together but they both knew that they couldn’t live without the other and I’m so glad that they made it work. This book was phenomenal and I’m loving this small town!

The audio was incredible, both voice actors did phenomenal!!
