Resumen del Editor

Clean cut, all-American, hot as sin, and sweet enough to lick all over.

That's how my friend Skye describes Miles Blake. It's how I'd describe him, too, if I didn't just find out the one-night stand that rocked my world is my best friend's fiancé's best friend—God, what a mouthful.

Now, the cat's out of the bag, and despite the lingering attraction between us, I've locked him firmly in the friend zone.

What else am I supposed to do? If I allow myself to enjoy Miles the way I want to, what will happen when things inevitably go bad? We'd be putting our prospective best friends in the middle, that's what. And I refuse to be the cause of tension between my bestie and the love of her life.

No way. No how.

But it doesn't take long for the desire simmering inside me to come to a head. Miles is charming, funny, gorgeous, and kind—everything I could want in a man wrapped in a sexy package that makes my body revolt against my mind and its ridiculous decision to keep things friendly.

So we make a deal—well remain friends, but with—ahem—benefits. Nothing changes outside of the bedroom, and when we end the physical stuff, well remain friends. No harm. No foul.

It's the perfect plan, right?

Terrific Story & Listen🎧A Sweet & Spicy Delight!

Piper James pens another delightful novel set in her “Branston Bandits” series, a sports romance with lots of humor, heart, and heat. Roxy is a waitress and bakes and sells cookies on the side, with dreams of opening her own shop one day. Miles is eating dinner with friends at the restaurant where she works and he can not keep his eyes off of her, so he makes a move on her, and she agrees to meet him after her shift and the two have a steamy one-night-stand. Roxy did not know that he played football or that they had mutual friends in common until they both saw each other again while visiting those friends, Tessa and Riggs, from the first book. She was not expecting to see him again and having friends in common complicates things, so they decide to only be friends. But there is undeniable chemistry between them and they could only deny each other for so long and they agree to be friends with benefits. What could go wrong with that? There is never a dull moment in this book and the writing, plot and world building are terrific, as are the character growth and development. I thought these two were great together and for each other. Piper James, thank you for another fabulous story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 Cecily Foster and Josh Innerst deliver another fabulous performance, bringing the characters and story to life. They have a complete understanding of the characters they are portraying, giving each their own voice and personality. Their portrayal of the characters is spot on and they are believable in every role they play. You could hear how much heart they put into their performance as they capture all the characters’ emotions, having you feel each one. They set the perfect tone for the story and handled the witty dialogue natural and with ease. These two make a great narration team, their voices and performance complement each other and they are a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fabulous listen. 

Another great Branson Bandits story!

I loved the first book in this series and absolutely loved this one as well. If you liked the first book with Tessa and Riggs, try this one out to find out more about Roxy. Such a cute little town and cast of characters! Definitely a fun series.

Excellent Series!

I really enjoyed seeing their relationship progress from the initial one night stand. The author weaved together a beautiful story that made me yearn for more. I devoured this book and was actually kind of sad when it ended. Another winner from this author!

Bump and Run

Bump and Run is the second book in the Branston Bandits series. This book is about Miles and Roxy and is told from both of their points of view.

Miles and Roxy are strangers who have one steamy night together. The next day they get a surprise of a lifetime, when they realize both of their friends are getting married.

They start as friends, but of course friends leads to more. However, things are keeping them apart.

I enjoyed this second installment of this series, and can't wait for the next one!

Friends to lovers

The second book in the Branston Bandits series.

Even tough they are combustible together, Roxy friend zones Miles in order to not cause issues for her best friend should it not work out between them. As they begin to spend more time together, Roxy comes up with a friends with benefits arrangement which Miles agrees to, for now. This works for them until real feelings come into play. Now they need to take the chance to get their own HEA.

Great narration by Cecily Foster and Josh Innerst once again.

Just the right hint of endearing.

James takes the spice of life and the irony of emotion to heart. Miles and Roxy speak the words we explicitly feel, but don't always say. Foster and Innerst walk a fine line between witty and frustrating to find just the right hint of endearing.
