My Favorite Bad Decision

By: Elizabeth O'Roark

Narrated by: Rose Dioro, Grayson Owens

Climbing Kilimanjaro? No thank you.
Climbing it with Miller West? Absolutely f***ing not.

A full week without showers, a real bed, or Internet was bad enough. Spending it with my family’s sworn enemy—the unbearably smug, indecently handsome Miller West—is a bridge too far.

I’m determined to remain enemies, even if sparring with him is my favorite thing in the world. Even if he’s hell-bent on protecting me, whether I need it or not, and surprisingly kind, no matter how awful I am to him.

But eight days is a long time to hate someone you’re sleeping next to.

Especially when you suspect you never hated him at all.

And what happens on Kilimanjaro stays on Kilimanjaro...right?

What a fun adventure!

Kit and Miller’s story is filled with all the heartwarming moments mixed with the best banter!

⛰️Billionaire romance
⛰️Sister’s ex boyfriend
⛰️Forced proximity
⛰️Age gap
⛰️Only one tent

When Kit decides to go out of her comfort zone FOR REAL, and climb Kilimanjaro, she doesn’t expect to see her sister’s ex, aka her sworn enemy.

Miller does his best to get in Kit’s good graces and after a mishap with his tent, they are forced to spend extra time together. And throughout their hike, their attraction gets stronger and that turns into something even more real.

But how will they make it work when they get home? Will their feelings stay at Kilimanjaro, or will they get a real life HEA?

I loved these two! You can tell from the very beginning that they were going to be explosive together and they were in the best way. I loved all of the banter and hilarious moments throughout for these two!

Rose Dioro and Grayson Owens were the best pairing for this duet style narration. Rose’s sweet mixer with sassy was the perfect Kit and Grayson’s charm embodied all that is Miller.

In love with Miller !

From the very beginning, you can tell that he is absolutely in love with her. The way that he always tries to protect her. I am absolutely obsessed with both of them. I'm so glad he helped her get a backbone with her family.
I'm so thankful for her dad he had known her heart had been lost and he knew how to bring it back to her.
The story did not go the way that I thought it would as to why her heart was broken and I feel so sad for her.

absolutely fabulous story

oh I don't know what to say about this story it was absolutely fabulous it. the main character goes through such a journey and it's really quite incredible I mean she starts off when you first meet her that she's kind of snobbish and and not you know very friendly and as the time goes you learn more about her and you start to love her you definitely of course love the male character pretty much instantly he's extremely Charming. I love this journey for the female character I loved her Cockiness I loved her when she realizes everything it really brought it all together the narrator's did a phenomenal job keeping you so engrossed in the story they really brought it to life and I would absolutely recommend this story to anyone in fact I plan on re listening to this because it was that good.

Great Duet Audiobook

Thank you to Elizabeth O’Roark and Valentine PR for providing me an early copy of this audiobook. All opinions are my own.

This was a really fun, action-adventure-ish romance, with a little forbiddenness and enemies to loversness to it.

Miller dated Kit’s older sister for a summer when Kit was 17. After he broke up with said sister…via text…he became enemy number 1, but oh no, 10 years later and he’s booked on the same climbing expedition as her. 😩👀

I really enjoyed the climbing aspect in this one; it added a bit of an action-adventure vibe to the beginning, while also giving all the forced proximity goodness.

I loved Miller and the care he gave to Kit throughout the book. It was always so sweet and thoughtful, especially for a character like Kit who’s always taking care of others.

I am already so intrigued by some of the side characters, especially Kit’s sister, Maren, and I *think* this is just the start of a series? So hoping we get a bit more with her! 🤞

Audiobook notes: Duet Narration! Both narrators were great! Definitely recommend the audio!

What this book is giving:
✅ Billionaire Romance

Great Story

This story has it all!! Great main characters, banter, tension, side characters interesting and add to the story. My one little criticism is the resolving of the main issue in the story between the sisters. For this being the main bone of contention between the two, it seemed like it was pretty easily resolved. However there is no other author I would rather read… so in my book it’s still a 10!!!
