Fluffy and Hot

It was hot and magnetic chemistry with a surprising amount of fluff and very little opposition. I'm usually one for angst, but based on other books, Austin Bates isn't heavy on the angst if he adds any at all. I liked the competition between Hunter and Levi. Kept things hot and interesting. All in all, not a bad listen.

Chasing the dream

I found the characters totally intriguing. They played well off of each other. The story of a traditional bar owner and a new upstart bar was the beginning of a clash course to love. The journey was fun and easy to listen to. The erotic scenes made
the story an adult only scenario and with out those, this would have been great for teens.
Thanks Austin for letting me listen to this audio.

Sweet and fun

This is a fun addition to the series. The overall story and MCs just might be my favorite yet. The narration is done ok though he gives the women in the story some weird goofy voice, it's slightly irritating but not too bad. Overall it's an enjoyable listen.

Pranks can be fun...

Levi owns a motorcycle bar in his hometown. He inherited it from his grandfather and he has changed nothing. Then Hunter comes back to town to help care for his mother. His dream has been to open a place in his hometown. When he spends the day looking at places his heart is set on the final place he sees. Turns out it is directly across the street from Levi's bar. That does not hold Hunter back, he jumps in with both feet.

However the pranks start shortly after. Raccoons, the threat of critters needing a exterminator, peeping sounds and GLITTER BOMBS. However in the middle of all the wars and fun, both Levi and Hunter notice an attraction between the two of them.

After explaining the fun to his mom Hunter realizes there might really be something there. When Levi updates his own bar and the interior decorator hits on him he realizes him self that Hunter is who he wants. When he goes over to see him they end up kissing and get caught by one of Levi's friends. Levi is due back at the bar for his grand opening. And so begins the relationship.

Can they continue to be a couple? Will Hunter's mom recover? Can both bars succeed next to each other?

charged romance

It's all fun and games until they fall fir each other,
and then it's even better!! I enjoyed the pysh and pull between Hunter and Levi. I liked their characters and insta attraction and chemistry.
More please. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Sweet romance

Another sweet, light romance with a very, very small bit of enemies-to-lovers there, at the beginning.

What I really enjoyed the most was the pranks at the beginning of the story, TBH. Those guys were really inventive :P

There is very little angst here, and the one that is... well, it's quite easily solved. And I'm still wondering how <spoiler>Levi's ex managed to send him nude's pics when he had actually blocked his number </spoiler> *rolls eyes*

Very entertaining and an easy read. And C.S. Harder does a good job with the narration.

fun, humor, love and family

Would I listen to it again: yes
Did the story keep me engaged: yes
Was I invested in the characters: yes

Story comment: fun, easy, low angst listen. Engaging characters and a good pace.

I enjoyed CS Harder's narration and think he's done a good job on Competing for His Heart. I had no problem distinguishing characters and the rhythm, inflections and intonations all worked to bring the book to life - if I was being super critical, I would have liked Levi's voice to be a little deeper and Hunter to sound a little older, but neither of these are significant enough for me to not listen to the book again.

story was great narration not so much

loved the story. it was very well done. did not enjoy the narration at all. took me twice as long to get through it because the voices were awful.
