The Roommate Mistake

An Off-Limits Rugby Romcom

De: Pippa Grant

Narrado por: Kit Swann, Connor Crais

An injured rugby star, his pregnant roommate, and one rule they can’t break: Don’t date the owner’s daughter.

It was supposed to be an easy house- and dog-sitting gig while the owner was gone for a month. But when my sportsing landlord comes home unexpectedly, injured and in need of a new arrangement, we end up as accidental roommates instead.

But if Holt Webster, the tall, thick-muscled, square-jawed, broody-eyed rugby player, had told me he played for the Copper Valley Pounders, I would’ve told him that my stepdad bought the team while I was working cruise ships overseas.

And he would’ve noped out of offering me a place to stay because the only thing worse than looking like you’re flirting with the owner’s daughter is looking like you’re hooking up with the owner’s pregnant daughter.

Yes, yes, I’m that woman—the one who accidentally got knocked up, decided to keep the baby, and had to move home because pregnancy and cruise ships aren’t a good match.

And now I’m that woman who doesn’t just look like she’s hooking up with an off-limits player. I actually am hooking up with an off-limits player. But who can blame me? He’s hot. He’s kind. And he’s spending our nights sleeping with his hand on my baby bump.

Claiming us both.

But if my dad finds out, Holt’s gone. And we’ll be…rucked.

The Roommate Mistake is a heart-tugging sports romcom featuring two people in need of new best friends, a dog with an attitude, and a very…fowl…meet-cute. It stands alone and comes complete with a found family happily ever after.
Content note: This book contains a character dealing with the loss of his brother to cancer.

Good. Romance. Funny pets and HEA. I will be looking for more Pippa Grant books

Connor Crais His commanding voice and his narration

On the other hand Kitty Swan’s cringe worthy narration almost made me not finish the book. Her voicing other characters were much better than reading her characters lines. Her high octave sound in every turn was irritating. 😠
She should be reading children’s books.
Otherwise the story was good enough!

swoon-worthy romance!

This is a fantastic my-daughter-is-off-limits romance!

I loved this audio!!!! OK...so I just can't tell you everything I loved about it...or I would be writing it all word or word!!!

The characters, narrators, storyline, the awesome soft hearted rugby player hero, the pregnant heroine, the family, the c-word ex bestie....gahhhhh!!!!


I just loved this and think everyone should listen to or read it!!!

Grumpy is Sunshine

Holt has had some bad breaks lately with his brother dying and working security. Ziggy is home because she's going to be a single mom and wants to be close to her family. Holt accidentally gets her fired from her job, then offers her a job dog sitting while he's in Europe playing rugby. He gets hurt and has to come back to recover. He couldn't let Ziggy know since his phone was stolen. He decides to let her stay in the house and they'll make it work. I really liked that he could hear his brother's voice telling him things that he needed to know. Neither one knows that she's the stepdaughter of the owner of the local rugby team that Holt is the captain of and has forbidden the players from dating his daughters. Nothing good can come of Ziggy and Holt living in the same house and starting to get feelings for each other. Connor Crais and Kit Swann really bring the story to life.

Holt❤️Ziggy--Park'g lot poultry, Naked Tuesdays

What does Ziggy, a pregnant, jobless, homeless, food/wine expert with all-day morning sickness & Holt, an injured rugby captain, who's used to taking care of everyone else, but now needs help himself have in common? They're roommates in Pippa's 2nd book in the Copper Valley Pounders series, & it would be a mistake to miss this one! Oh yeah, the other thing they have in common but don't realize until feelings are involved--Ziggy's stepdad owns the Pounders, & doesn't like his daughters & players fraternizing. This story is everything I love about Pippa's books -- a mix of LOL hilarity, tender/heartfelt moments, wild/whacky escapades, zany pet antics, with just enough steam/spice. I absolutely loved Ziggy, Holt, Tater Tot, Jessica (dog), & their story. Also love that some of the nasty characters get back a little bit of what they've sown. And the epilogues were fantastic!

Kit Swann and Connor Crais performed the dual narration & they absolutely nailed it! Perfect picks by Pippa! There were tons of 2ndary characters here -- old, young, humans, pets -- Connor & Kit gave them all a unique voice so that you would forget it was just one person doing the narration! I listen to Connor a lot & enjoy how talented he is at voices & accents. This is only the 2nd time hearing Kit, but man is she talented, too! Great performances by both! They made this audio so easy to listen to. I didn't want to put it down, finished in a single session, & thoroughly enjoyed it! I'd give it +5☆☆☆☆☆ if I could!

Story was good but…

Kit wasn’t the right female narrator for this story IMO. She made Ziggy so whiny, it made it difficult to finish. Enjoyed the read and characters. The audible not so much.

So, so good & funny!

I loved it. It was hilarious and sweet. This guy feel so hard! I loved listening to his these two people helped each other heal and work through things. It was so sweet!

Love this romcom!

Laugh, cry, love, Pippa Grant has a true gift at bringing all the feels. This book had me from the start, and then had me when Jessica the dog came in! Ziggy's pregnancy has her coming back to her parent's town to settle down. But they can be stifling. Needing her own space, she takes up Holt's offer to house sit while he goes to Europe. She would have the place to herself along with his dog and give her the space to help her find her own place. But an injury has him home early, as the two butt heads and get to know each other. But the most important thing was never discussed. Finding out her stepdad owns the team this rugby player is on adds a new dimension of difficulty to the scene. Grant had me laughing from the beginning. The chemistry is strong between these two, the banter their foreplay and the dog the comic relief. I was laughing out loud! Loving Holt is easy. His heart is huge and he is just lovable. Ziggy is loyal and unforgiving when she knows she is right. I love her steadfast love. But Jessica the dog is the standout. Loved her. This is a fabulous addition to the CV Pounders series. Always a pleasure to listen to Grant's books.

Connor Crais and Kit Swann are the perfect picks for this narration. Crais has the warmth in his voice that is Holt. The good man he is, the huge heart he has and the love he gives all come through his voice. Swann gives the best internal monologue voice as Ziggy talks to herself, coming to the best decisions and loving Holt. The comedic timing is spot on and I loved their performance.

Great story!

Was so much fun to see the gang again! Can’t wait to see what’s next

so funny

This book is hilarious especially the meet cute that involved a rental car, a security guard, and a whole chicken.
