Stay with Me

A Best Friend's Brother Small Town Romance (Sugarland Creek, Book 2)

By: Brooke Montgomery

Narrated by: Aiden Snow, Savannah Peachwood

A best friend’s brother stand-alone from small-town romance author Brooke Montgomery about a girl who falls pregnant by the wrong man and the cowboy who takes her in…I've crushed on my best friend's brother for years.

He's a six-foot-three, dark-haired cowboy who works on his family's ranch and sends butterflies to my stomach anytime he looks at me. But he's never made a move, so I need to get over it.

Except, when he reads a text message about me liking a mysterious guy, he snaps and demands answers. Little does he know, it's my code name for him.

When he finally confesses he likes me too, I find out I'm pregnant. With my ex-boyfriend's baby.

After spending three weeks together in secret, my world turns upside down when that little white stick reveals a positive sign from the one-night stand I had before him.

Now everything's a mess and my life's spiraling out of control.

I can't expect him to date me anymore, so I insist we return to being friends. The last thing he needs is a girl who's carrying another man's baby and about to be a first-time mom.

But when my apartment gets broken into, and there's a suspected criminal on the loose, he insists I move in with him to keep me safe.

Staying platonic proves to be harder with each passing day as he goes with me to my appointments, takes me baby shopping, and stocks the kitchen with all my weird cravings. He's so involved that everyone assumes he's the father. And I don’t correct them.

But the truth always comes out in a Southern small town.

Stay With Me is book 2 in the Sugarland Creek series. Each book in this Southern, small town series is a stand-alone and ends in a happily ever after.

Fantastic read!

I absolutely loved this story! It pulled me in from beginning to end and kept me engaged the entire time. Once I started reading, I didn't want to stop. Magnolia has been in love with Tripp for years, he's her best friend's brother, but he has never really given her the time of day. She's been with her toxic ex and she has ended it but ends up with one last one night stand with him that she vows never to repeat. Shortly after that, Tripp figures out some things and finally makes a move. Things are going well while they are together in secret at first, that is until Magnolia figures out that her last night with the ex left her pregnant. I loved watching the way that these two finally come together and figure things out. Once Tripp gets his stuff together and gives this a chance with Magnolia, he's gone for her. He is all in and there is no going back for him. He treats Magnolia so well and sometimes she doesn't quite know what to do with it. I loved watching these two figure it all out and be so cute together as well. I loved his unwavering support once he finally gave in, he was all in and it was awesome. I loved how he respected her boundaries but still showed his interest, care and love. Tripp has a dirty mouth and it was hot, hot, hot! In the absolutely best way! I loved all the antics that they get up to, along with the rest of the Hollis family. The story flows well and has a good balance that keeps the story moving forward without stalling out. It's great and I can't wait for the rest of the family's stories!
Narrators did a great job with the characters and the story!!

🥰

Enjoyed this book started out of order but I will go back n listen to the other books in this series

love love love

I absolutely love this book. Loved. This. Book.
I have yet to read the first in this series but believe you me I will be going back to that one. This book just had me. 😍

Tripp freaking Hollis. This man is pure gold. Definitely moved up my list on one of my favorite book boyfriends. He enraptured me in this book and made me not want to put it down. Such a cinnamon roll. So sweet and kind. Really just this well-rounded but real personality.

Magnolia is this sweet and feisty girl. Her ex-boyfriend is something else. But this girl is resilient and so unfiltered which I love about her. Her vulnerable side doesn't come out as much. I love watching the connection between two characters and the vulnerability that just exudes from them after that.

I don't know I'm just obsessed. I can't wait to go back and read book one. I can't wait to read book 3 in the future. If you love a small town romance, best friend's brother, and found family. Definitely dig into this one. Also if you're an audio lover this audio is it. I absolutely love the narration and the connection to the characters. So so good.

Swoony cowboy romance

It’s a brother’s best friend romance! Small town shenanigans, she’s pregnant but it’s not his, and lots and lots of pining.

I’m the biggest fan of cowboy romance but not one for surprise pregnancy. BUT, when she’s pregnant and it’s not his? I absolutely love it.

I loved the romance. It’s swoony and so cute. Their relationship is so sweet and mature, I loved it. The way he expresses his feelings and communicates his love for her makes me want to read this book all over again.

So so good!!!

OMG

Tripp and Magnolia are so perfect together! 100% one of my favorite couples...

the narrators really bring the characters to life with the accents and attitudes.

Brooke Montgomery is killing it with this series each book is as good or better than the last!
