Tangled Like Us

By: Krista Ritchie, Becca Ritchie

Narrated by: Holly Warren, Stephen Dexter

How to protect your heart:
Let your bodyguard have it.

Jane Cobalt is an American princess. The loyal and painfully curious 23-year-old has inherited immense pressure to preserve the Cobalt legacy. But for Jane, sex, love, and life have been a series of royal failures.

After a friends-with-benefits ended in disaster, she's sworn to a "no sex" hiatus for, well, eternity - and she has no intention of letting anyone in her bed and definitely not her heart.

Twenty-eight-year-old Thatcher Moretti is painfully professional. As the stern 24/7 bodyguard to Jane, thinking about unbridled sex with his sweet client is a sin. One that he keeps committing.

But the real act is a hard line he'd never cross.

When a family member betrays Jane's trust, the media becomes obsessed with matchmaking the perpetually "single" Jane Cobalt and unwanted attention suddenly compromises her safety.

Thatcher would do anything to protect her, and one solution may level the threats: Become the fake boyfriend to an American princess.

Entwined together with boiling chemistry, new "professional" parameters, and an oath, unsaid feelings threaten to rise and change everything.

Never think You can't find Love

Never do you think at 17 that your little brothers bodyguard would ever give you a second look. When shit hits the fan and hes transferred to your detail .

Not so fake couple!

The Like Us series is becoming one of my favorites.
Whew, Jane and Thatcher had some sizzling chemistry! And because of that, you just knew the whole "fake couple" thing was not going to last. They sure did give it a good try, though, doing their best to keep up the act for everyone around them. But when feelings are that strong between people there's really no way to deny it.
I enjoyed finally getting to know Jane, outside of her friendship with Moffy. I really like her- she's sweet and quirky, loves with her whole heart, she's not afraid to be who she is, unapologetically. And I loved that Thatcher respected and cared for Jane, quirks, cats, and all.
I thought these two were great together, so opposite but just perfect.
I'm so glad we get to see the rest of the families in these books, they all contribute so much to these stories. Since I haven't read the parents books, it's nice getting to know them a bit this way. Jane's family is awesome, I love her siblings!

I have to say, I'm a little frustrated with the security team, especially with how the book ended. I don't agree with how they are going about things, and I'm anxious to see the way things are going to play out. They seem to be over-stepping boundaries, but we shall see!

This was the first book I've listened to by both Holly and Stephen and I really enjoyed their narrations. Holly was great as Jane and I loved how Stephen brought Thatcher to life. My only issue with his narration was with the other male voices. I had a hard time distinguishing who was who, as they all kind of sounded similar, and more on the feminine side. But other than that, the narration was great!
And I do admit, it was hard hearing other people narrate #Marrow, because I love JF and Alexander- they are Moffy and Farrow!, but what can you do?

Great story. Great narration.

I gave up on the majority of m/f romance books decades ago because most authors (female authors included) construct unrealistic female characters who are matched with domineering or chauvinistic male characters. Krista and Becca Ritchie have a knack for writing romantic partners who work well together regardless of how different their body types and personalities are. I also appreciate their skill at building unique and interesting characters.

I want to offer up five stars for this book, but sometimes the sentence structure and misuse of words distracted me from the story. The misuse of the word "never" aggravates me. I can excuse some weird sentence structure and language as being a different dialect from what I am used to, but inappropriate use of "never" rarely gets a free pass in my world. So, sadly only four stars for this entertaining romance.

The narration was enjoyable. Both narrators have pleasant voices, and their performances were a lovely addition to the story.

I love the world that the Ritchie twins created. Every book in this world, and every character.
In this one, we learn more about Jane and Thatcher and I can't say I'm satisfied now. No! I need more!
The more I read, the more I want. And not just for the two main characters. The way these books are written, and especially TLU, makes you want to know more about other characters: Sully and Akara, Luna and Donnely, and Banks. I'm dying to know more about Banks!
This book can be read as a stand-alone, but is much more fun to be read following the Tangled series first three books, if not all the Damaged and the Calloway Sisters books.
Keep them coming, please.

Rewarding
