I am a big fan of Annah Conwell and I was so excited to finally see Maverick’s story. Though I’ve read the ebook already I LOVED hearing it in their voices. The audio was done so well, I went and listened to all the previous audio books.

3.75 Stars!

I only read the first and last book of this series, but I really really seem to like this series, they’re so entertaining.
Listening to this book’s audiobook is making me want to read the entire series again!

Loved it!!
The portrayal of the emotions were so well done and just added depth to the story. The voices really brought the story more to life and was way better than what I imagined

I think this might be my favorite in the Carter brothers series??? I just loved it so much 🥺 I love a forced proximity/roommates trope and I’ve been waiting for this book since we see a glimpse of these characters in previous books. It was so sweet and the emotional depth was so good. The pacing and slow burn was also perfect!!

The way Maverick was so patient w Evie was so sweet and how he took care of her and Beckham made me 🥲 and Evie’s healing journey throughout the book was so sweet to read 🥺 also absolutely loved the narration of the audiobook!!!

I am so sad this series is over but hope to see more of these characters in future books 🤭

“ The connection that I have with Mav goes beyond chance or coincidence. It’s the kind of Destiny found in fairytales. Not matter how you spin our story it’s always us I the end. I would have found him or he would have found me. I’m certain of it” Maverick and Evie love story is meant to be. A great end to great series. I will miss the Carters for sure. The audiobook with Kim Churchill and John William Maddux is amazing

omg i LOVED THIS AUDIO!! It was literally just what I needed. A new to me author and new to me narrators and I absolutely loved it. I loveee a brothers best friend book plus she's a single mom!! So good!! The banter was so good and maverick was down so bad. I can't wait to go and read the rest of the series now.

All in on this protective brother's best friend single parent romance! I loved listening to Maverick and Evie's story. What set it apart for me is that they had their own relationship outside of just him being her brother's friend. That made their transition into the romantic realm more tangible for me. My initial impression when I first started the book was that he was going to be the closed off one, but it was the opposite; she was closed off and guarding her heart after her horrible ex did her dirty! Mav was so perfectly protective of her and it was beautiful to hear.
This has nothing to do with the book itself, but I wish I had discovered the series with book 1! I didn't realize that it was the 4th book in the series initially so it was hard for me to follow all of the other couples at first...BUT that just gives me 3 other books to add to my TBR.

this was short and sweet.
I didn’t dislike this book, but i also don’t see myself looking back at it and thinking about it much.

I enjoyed the characters, but there was little to no depth to them. Everything was there for the story to be knocked out of the park, but I just don’t feel like it was developed enough for me.

I think the angst and tension needed dialed up to show the couple’s chemistry more. They gave me the friends vibe, and i found myself not really caring if they ended up together or not.

You’re going to get such a good mix of tropes here:
🛋️ Forced Proximity
🛋️ Roommates
🛋️ Brother’s Best Friend
🛋️ Single Mom

BUT my issue is that it just wasn’t flayed out enough, and due to that it just kind of flopped on exacution for me.

It wasn’t bad, but it also wasn’t something that will lead a lasting impression. If you enjoy the tropes, definitely give it a try!

I also really enjoyed the narrators! They absolutely added to the story as a whole.

*4.5 stars rounded up *
I love every single Carter brother and Maverick was no exception. The banter between Evie and Maverick was my absolute favorite. Getting cameos from all of the other Carter brothers made it so much better. The narrators did such a great job bringing everything to life and I loved listening to this book so much. This was my second time reading But He’s My Roommate and I think I loved it even more than I did the first time.

I was given an ALC via NetGalley. All opinions expressed above are my own.

3.5 ⭐️-

This book was so cute! A quick, light romance listen that put me in a great mood. Before starting, I didn’t realize it was the last book in an interconnected series, so I definitely missed out on a few things, and I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I had read the previous books. However, I was still able to enjoy it and easily follow the story around. I thought the narrators fit the characters extremely well.
Read if you want a dual POV romance with brother’s best friend, single mom, and obviously, roommate vibes 🤪

I finished this in one day, that’s how much I enjoyed it. It was a fun, light hearted read that gave exactly what I needed. The narrator was on point and I’ll be recommending to book club. 😊

This book had all the pieces to make a really great book, but fell flat on the execution for me.

It wasn't a bad book, but it wasn't memorable either. There was nothing that made it stand out or speak to me in anyway. If anything it was a cute little time filler.

The tropes sound great, with the whole single mom, brother's best friend, moving in to his property, etc. And I respected the FMC's desire to take care of herself and her baby, but it seemed like she had a pretty great family and support system and was intentionally isolating herself and her child from them. Her own brother didn't even know that she had named her child after him until he was several months old and showed up on her doorstep demanding to let them help her.

I'm thinking maybe it just wasn't for me, but I really struggled to connect with the FMC. The MMC was fine, he was sweet, but kind of.. (i hate to say this, but) boring.

Kim Churchill & John William Maddux did a fine job of narrating. But I did find my mind wandering at times. I'm not sure if that was due to the narration or just the writing. But there were definitely moments where it didn't keep my attention.

Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for the advanced copy audiobook.

This is a heartwarming and humorous romance that will captivate readers who crave a feel-good, emotional journey, especially those who enjoy stories about found family, healing, and the blossoming love between a single mom and her childhood crush-turned-roommate, making it a perfect fit for fans of fluff romance and closed-door romances.

The story was beautifully well written. I enjoyed the narrators and I have 2 new narrators that I’ll find more books too. I’ll be sure to
Listen to the rest of the series!

This one was really good. I loved the 2 main characters together. I loved that Maverick wanted to take care of her and her baby. I love a good protector in my romance books. I have read one other book in this series but I think I liked this one better. It can be read as a stand-alone without missing too much.
This one I read on audio and the narrators were fantastic- I love when a book is read by a male and female narrator.
I can’t wait to read the rest of the books in this series.

But He’s My Roommate is the fourth and final book in Annah Conwell’s But He’s a Carter Brother series, which takes place in Georgia. It can absolutely be read or listened to as a stand-alone. But He’s My Roommate is a closed-door second-chance, older brother’s best friend romantic comedy. The story is told in alternating POV from Evie and Maverick.

Evie Wilder is a fashion photographer in NYC, recently divorced from her cheating model husband, Ezra, and a mother to two-month-old son, Beckham. Evie pretty much ghosted her family when she married Ezra and is now too embarrassed to share her current circumstances with them. Her brother, Drew, is worried about her and convinces his best friend, Maverick Carter, to travel with him to check on Evie and meet his nephew. They are dismayed to see Evie struggling and beg her to return to Georgia with them. While they are visiting, Evie is fired from her job and realizes that she can’t afford to stay in NYC.

Maverick Carter, one of the four Carter brothers, is Drew Wilder’s lifelong best friend. The Carter family included the Wilder siblings in their family unit due to the chaos and dysfunction in the Wilder household. Maverick had a secret crush on Evie but never pursued her. He was disappointed by her rushed marriage to the male model and subsequent ghosting of her Georgia family and friends. Maverick is the owner of a successful bakery in their hometown and has a large farmhouse on seven acres in the country. His home has a second floor with its own separate living space, which he offers to Evie rent-free. Maverick was almost engaged the previous year, but they broke up when he discovered that his girlfriend was cheating on him.

Evie really wants to manage on her own and is resentful that she has to accept help. Maverick wants to help her and does his best to be respectful of her dignity. Of course Maverick quickly falls in love with her, and Evie feels like she doesn’t deserve him. Maverick teaching Evie to box is one of my favorite scenes, and shows how much he really cares for her. The story arc is primarily Evie’s character development.

The storyline of But He’s My Roommate is predictable, but readers will adore Maverick’s sweetness and patience with Evie. The sibling relationships in both the Wilder and Carter families are enviable, and the banter is simultaneously realistic and hilarious. I found Evie to be immature, entitled, and professionally out of touch early in the story. She whined about giving her all to the fashion magazine, so much so that she went into labor early. Her pregnancy and lack of childcare wasn’t her employer’s problem, and bringing a newborn to work demonstrated how out of touch she was to professional norms.

The audiobook is skillfully narrated by Kim Churchill and John William Maddux, who do an outstanding job bringing life to the characters. However neither narrator uses a southern accent, when most of the characters are Georgia natives. The female narrator speaks too quickly for a native Southerner, and the audiobook company should consider slowing down her speech via electronic means, in order to be more authentic.

After purchasing the ebook from Amazon 6 months ago, I received an Advance Review Copy (ARC) of the audiobook from NetGalley and DreamScape Media for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was the perfect book to end the series with. I have loved every book and have grown attached to the Carter family. Mav is such a sweet, protective, extra swoony cinnamon roll (who bakes!!), how could anyone not love him?! And Evie is the perfect sweet and sassy partner for him. The trials that she goes through would break many people, especially with all the postpartum hormones adding to the mix, but she is so strong and resilient and finally humble enough to accept help that she just flourishes instead. Also, I must say thank you to the author for not having a third act break up. It would have just broken my heart to see them go through that.
*UPDATE* I just finished listening to the audio version of this book and I love it as much as I did 5 months ago when I read it. The narrators were the perfect choice, becoming the characters and pulling me in to their story, rather than just voices saying words. Annah Conwell is a brilliant author and you will not be disappointed reading or listening to any of her books.

I’ve been waiting all series for these two to get their chance!

It was so nice to see them lean on each other and grow more comfortable with their feelings.

I loved the tropes in this one with an emphasis on roommates and single mom rather than an emphasis on a protective older brother who doesn’t approve of his best friend dating his sister.

I really enjoyed the narrators, making this quick read even quicker to fly through!

3.5 stars

This book was really cute! I have, yet again, read an Annah Conwell series out of order, but honestly they are all so good, it didn’t even matter. This book was the right amount of heart and depth with a side of cheesy, which I love. I am so excited to continue to explore this family, as I go back and start from the beginnning (now that I have read the end).

I get that this is part of a series but!!! It’s book four in a series of stand alone romances. I unfortunately have not read the previous books but I was able to jump right into this one with no issues aside from knowing that at this point most people are super in love with all of these side couples that have cameos in this book.

But He’s my Roommate follows Evie and Maverick. Evie is a newly single mom, just having divorced her cheating ass ex husband, she struggles to balance work and a new baby. Maverick is her brother’s best friend. Evie and Maverick grew up together and so naturally he comes to her rescue. It was a really cute story about finding love after getting burned by previous relationships. It was a brothers best friend, friends to lovers, no spicy cutesy book.

Big thank you to Dreamscape Media for this ALC!
