This is the first book I've listened to by Emma Chase, but it won't be my last. I loved how it was written and how it was sweet and sexy and emotional and heartfelt. I love the humour. I listened to it in one sitting, once I started it I just didn't want to stop. I really like the cover too, it gives an idea of the story and contains the narrators names.
Getting Schooled is such a sweet and sexy story. I loved it. I laughed, boy did I laugh. I even cried (big fat tears at one point). The characters really made this story. The supporting cast was a wonderful addition, they really made a difference in this story and I hope we see more of them in the future. The kids were adorable.
Garrett was a sweetheart, I just loved him. The scenes with his nephews and the dogs just gutted me. He's the type of book boyfriend everybody wants. Callie was awesome, I liked how she handled things and forgave easily. Whereas Garrett's appeal as in his emotion, for Callie it was all about her thought processes – they were both huge positives in this book and made them endearing as characters. I loved how we didn't have to wait long for Garrett and Callie to reconnect and how their connection was palpable. The sexy times were downright sexy and fit with the characters and what was happening. It was great how it centre's on a return home and that old adage ‘who says you can't go home?' or, maybe it's not an adage but a song, shrugs my inner Bon Jovi girl just wanted to use that line.
Zachary Webber and Andi Arndt are a great team, I was super happy to see them pair up for this book and really enjoyed their performance. The scene with the dog was probably my favourite due to the performance and how it affected me. They both put so much emotion into their performances and it's beautiful to listen to. Their comedic timing is always spot on. The production was great with no issues that I noted.
The interview with Emma Chase at the end of the book was a lovely addition and gave insight into the book and I loved hearing about what the plan is for this series.
