About this listen

I’m his boss. He’s my daughter’s ex-boyfriend. This has nope written all over it.

For 25 years, I’ve been in an exclusive, all-consuming relationship with Stone’s Throw Tavern, my family’s local bar. I don’t need a boyfriend. What I need is a new bartender.

And what I get is Charlie, my daughter’s old college boyfriend, a guy who still acts like he’s chillin’ at the frat house. He was canned from his Wall Street job and escaped to small town Sourwood for a fresh start. He knows bupkis about bartending, but he makes up for it with his cocky charm…and the tight shirts he wears, which secretly drive me wild. Now I’m making up excuses to hang by the bar during his shifts.There’s a pile of reasons why I can’t cross the line with an employee. Especially this one. He’s 20 years younger than me, and I’m a foot taller than him. Even on a purely mathematical level, this can’t work. And yet…The growing heat between the fratboy and me burns like a shot of whiskey. I just need to keep my beer can in my pants, or else I could lose my business and my daughter.

The Barkeep and the Bro will serve you up a glass of age gap, size difference, boss/employee, grumpy/sunshine, small town romance goodness, garnished with humor and lots of heat. And it won’t even ask for ID. This is the third audiobook in the Single Dads Club series, but can be listened to as a standalone.

I enjoyed this story very much, it was such fun. The characters and storyline were interesting and well drawn. The narrator was also excellent I'm really looking forward to the next book in the series.

Fun

Nick J Russo has done an amazing job with the narration of this book, just like the others in the series.

I loved this story when I originally read it, so I’ve been putting off listening for as long as my willpower would allow but I finally cracked - I wanted to draw it out for maximum enjoyment but it was just so good I binged it in one sitting. Mitch and Charlie are a super cute pairing - very grumpy / sunshine with an age gap and some other complications which makes it such an interesting listen. As always with Truman’s writing, I just love all the details of the secondary characters which make you just love them or truly hate them! And of course, Truman’s humour always makes me laugh so hard. If you haven’t read / listened to this one, just wait until you see what Charlie borrows!

A brilliant finale to the series
