Thank you NetGalley and Amy Daws for this ARC! Loved this audiobook, anytime Teddy Hamilton is voice acting I must listen. Made this romance even spicer hearing him speak! The female narrator was really wonderful as well!
The FMC and MMC were entertaining and loved their back and forth banter. Found myself laughing out loud a lot. This is a first from this author that I have read/listened to. Can't wait to dive into more in the future!

This was such a funny romance. The banter between Calder and Dakota was so good and the sexual tension was there. I loved the start at the destination wedding and seeing Calder's family so involved. It truly is the perfect romantic comedy.

Amy Daws has another win. This is such a fun follow up to nine month contract. I can't wait for the rest of the Mountain Men Books!

Loved EVERYTHING about this book. Both voice actors rent was dueeee babyyy. It had me laughing from the beginning. I loved the characters and especially milkshake 🥹 I read this book out of order, but it can be right as a standalone. I’m now going to try to read book one. The enemies to lovers / friends with benefits trope with a tatted lumberjack 🥵 excuseee meee. This would be the romantic comedy I hope becomes a movie.

3.5/5

thank you netgalley for the ALC

I dont think Amy Daws is really for me. with that being said though this was cute. I especially liked the ending (after the third act breakup which I didn't like) where the entire family roasted him. I thought it was a creative way to get out of his not telling her things.

that being said, Amy Daws writing just doesn't hook me like I want it to.

I adore Amy and her stories and the ability to get lost in them and laugh. I'm so glad she is getting more widely seen because she deceivers it and with such relatable characters in her stories.

This is the second book in the mountain men matchmaker series. Releasing June 17th.
I listened to this as a standalone and still really enjoyed it.
This book follows Calder and Dakota in an enemies to enemies with benefits love story. Calder is a tattooed, bearded, playboy, mountain man and Dakota is a curvy, bossy, business owner. This book was so much fun, the perfect read for vacation season. Teddy Hamilton was amazing (as always) in this audio version.

A perfect addition to the Mountain Men Matchmaker series! There’s something about Amy’s comedic approach to a romance that gets me every time. Please read the blurb for this book because it is both hilarious and encapsulates the essence of the book very well. Calder and Dakota are the perfect amount of ‘enemies’ to be considered a romance enemies to lovers in my eyes, but I know that some people will stand ten toes down on the fact that enemies to lovers is not possible in a rom com.

This was truly the first ‘sex club’ themed book that I thoroughly enjoyed. That may be because the majority of the book did not take place at the club, but it was still integral to the plot of the book. I nearly DIED when they were at the resort and he told her she was in control. I LOST IT. She was so shocked and that, I feel like, was the turning point in her starting to trust him. I adore when there is the microtrope of the MMC helping the FMC regain her confidence after a fuckwad of a husband/boyfriend. *chefs kiss*

I absolutely adored the first book in this series, but this one has definitely taken top slot now!

I cannot wait for the next book (and for Everly to eventually get her story!!)

Also, as always, the narrators were PHENOMENAL. Teddy Hamilton never misses. If you disagree, name a time and place. 👊

Whenever I open a book from Amy I know I will absolutely love every page of it and she did not disappoint with Seven Year Itch!!! Calder and Dakota were sizzling together. There was so much in the book, it had everything. It was funny, charming, witty, and sooooo much steam. Not only did I get to read this fantastic book, but I also got to listen to the duet narration with Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon and those two are wonderful. They brough such life to Calder and Dakota! It really emersed me into the Seven Year Itch even more. I can not wait for the next one!!!

Love the banter between the main characters and their transition from enemies to lovers. Lots of great microtropes - sex bucket list, forced proximity, grumpy v. sunshine, meddling family, one bed, small town, and vacation hook up-let's get it out of our systems.
The narrators did a great job with their portrayals of the characters. A great addition to the series, and I can't wait for the next installment.

Please note that this is a series that builds upon the book prior. There are major spoilers from book one in this book.

This one had some improvements over book one in the series, but it was still very much in line with the vibe. If you are looking for more spice than plot or maturity, than these are a go to for you. I think reading this one immediately after the first book was the way to go. It was easier to manage the characters and keep me expectation where it needed to be.

I did enjoy the attempt at plot, though. And the characters were a little more fun than book one's. Also, there's a lot of "finding my s3xual empowerment" and I highly approve of that.

It’s a fun book. It’s cute, funny, and a little cringy but I think that gives it some charm. Good narration, but of course they’re good it was Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon.

4/5⭐️

The banter between the two main characters was hands-down my favourite part of this book. They’re the perfect enemies-to-lovers couple — their mutual hatred had just the right amount of sexual tension to keep things electric without feeling overdone. I couldn’t get enough of their interactions!

Even though a big part of the plot revolves around sex (hello, PowerPoint checklist), the spicy scenes felt natural and well-balanced. Nothing came across as forced just to turn up the heat — it all fit the story and the characters so well.

I also really connected with both MCs on a personal level. They felt real and relatable, which made the emotional moments hit even harder and really pulled me into the story. The ending was sweet, funny, and totally satisfying — and I’m a total sucker for a good HEA, especially with two epilogues (yes please!).

The dual narration was also a huge win. With so much snappy dialogue and banter, it really brought the story to life. Erin Mallon and Teddy Hamilton absolutely nailed it. Their chemistry and delivery made the audiobook even more enjoyable.

This book made me laugh, made me mad, and gave me all the warm and fuzzy feelings — a solid 4 stars from me!

I am officially OBSESSED with Calder. Cat Daddy, hockey player, tattooed, makes PowerPoints, AND voiced by Teddy Hamilton, what more can you really ask for? I can't even begin to describe how much I loved this book and didn't want it to end. The banter was incredible and had me cracking up all throughout the book. The spice and dirty talk was fantastic, again, especially excellent with Teddy Hamilton as the male narrator. And I of course love Everly's meddling and am so excited for what she has in store for Luke. I cannot wait for the third book to come out, and will definitely be recommending this book all the time.

That’s to canary press & harlequin audio for this audiobook by Amy Daws. 2nd book in Mountain Men Matchmaker 🔥🔥🔥 so good. I can’t wait to read or listen to the next. I loved Calders story. Enemies to lovers, one bed trope. so much stuff I would’ve highlighted if I was reading it. It had me laughing, smiling and blushing multiple times!

We’re back on Fletcher Mountain and this time it’s Calder’s time to find love! Only he’s stuck vacationing with Dakota and she absolutely cannot stand him. The feeling is mutual.

These two actually seemed to really dislike each other for a little bit which I appreciated! The banter was so much fun and I do enjoy characters a lot. It was a fun spicy time! That being said, adult brothers fighting gives me the ick and I couldn’t come back from it. I still love these families though!

Teddy Hamilton is always a treat! Erin Mallon did amazing as well.

Thank you so much to Netgalley, Amy Daws, and Harlequin Audio for providing this free ARC. This is my honest review. This publishes on June 17th!

3.5 stars. This was better than Nine Month Contract. The romance and banter and spice is very good. But the sex club stuff--it really bothered me. And they visit it multiple times--it's like a never ending plot pivot. It's easy to skip those parts though. The audio was entertaining. Teddy Hamilton is great but he can't do female voices convincingly so they fixed that by actually having a female narrate all the female parts. The bad news is the female is Erin Mallon--not a fan of her. Her narration sounds like she's presenting a news segment. Thank you to NetGalley for an advanced audiobook

A 5 ⭐️ read! It was a swoony, laugh out loud, enemies to lovers romance! I loved how Max’s daughter, Everly, was involved in setting the brother up again. The banter Amy Daws creates between the characters is fantastic! Calder and Dakota were very relatable and likable characters. I can’t wait for the next Fletcher brother book!

I absolutely loved Seven Year Itch! The enemies to lovers storyline was perfect, and I especially enjoyed how Amy brought in characters from book one to keep the world connected. The narrators were amazing, Teddy and Erin never disappoint. I'm really hoping they narrate the entire series. I think my readers are going to fall in love with this one just like I did.
