About this listen
Christy Award Hall of Fame Author
FBI Agent Jude Camden handles every aspect of his job with by-the-book professionalism. There's no reason why his latest assignment—which calls for him to pose as the boyfriend of perfumer Gemma Clare—should be any different.
Except Gemma is different. She's creative, bold, and feisty. And as soon as she meets Jude, she wants to loosen him up, wrinkle his perfect shirts, and test every ounce of his towering self-control.
The FBI has an iron-clad rule against romances between those working together on operations. Jude's never met a rule he didn't respect. But adhering to this one is going to be tough because, as time goes by, he finds Gemma more and more irresistible.
Buckle up! It's going to be a rocky road.
Escape to Maine for this swoon-worthy "fake romance"! Banter, humor, perfume, and a mystery from the past intertwine in this sweet Sons of Scandal love story.

Patience Whitford spent the last two seasons watching her elder sisters make grand matches. She is thoroughly apprehensive with the notion of being limited by marriage.

When Major Ashley Stuart is assigned to investigate some petty crimes near his brother's estate in Greenwich, it soon becomes apparent that there is something much larger going on.

Now, we’re adults and we should be able to move on. But when I become a physical therapist for his professional hockey team, it seems as though we can’t let go of our rival tendencies.

Story
Falling in love is easy. Finding the right guy to spend happily ever after with... that's the hard part. But I have a foolproof plan. I'm taking the tropes that work in romance books and applying them to my love life. Only one bed? Never fails. Caring for someone when they're sick? A classic. Who did this to you? Seals the deal every single time. So long, loneliness. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. But the more I try to force romance, the more feelings naturally progress with the one man who's off limits: Walker Collins, the guy I've had a secret crush on since 7th grade.

Everything about Jude speaks to me - his honor, his bravery, his tender heart, his unwillingness to compromise the truth. I love how, in spite of his absolute reserve, he accepted and played along with Gemma’s crazy stories about him to her family!
Gemma is a delightful contradiction to him in so many ways. I love how, in spite of her initial aversion to working with an FBI agent, she also chose wisdom and courage in the face of hard decisions. I love her intensity and forthrightness.
I love how each of them found stronger faith in times of trouble.
I love their families who, in spite of a multitude of imperfections, are 100% committed to love and support one another (much like my own family)!
I also was listening to the Audible version in between reading on my kindle, and it truly was delightful — so very well narrated and the characterizations so well portrayed.
I very highly recommend this book, this series, and everything written by Becky Wade.

This quote is the perfect description of Becky Wade’s Rocky Road. It’s a delicious comfort read on a cold winter day. I devoured this book and loved every minute of Jude’s & Gemma’s story. It’s an opposites attract, fake relationship, sensory delight with Jude’s love of chocolate and butterflies and Gemma’s gift for creating perfumes even “the nose” loves. Not only is their love story a swoon worthy, sizzling just under the surface delight, but there’s a hint of suspense as well as the mystery of Gemma’s great grandma’s love story.
Jude’s a handsome, strait laced, serious FBI agent who’s after an international criminal. To nab the would be perfume formula thief, he calls on the thief’s cousin Gemma who’s a perfumer and owns her own shop. He wants to pose as Gemma’s boyfriend in order to get close to her cousin Cedric. Their meet cute is hilarious. From there, the chemistry between the two opposites only grows stronger with the energetic, spontaneous, impetuous Gemma and the neat and tidy, rule following Jude. I secretly loved the part where Gemma rumples his shirt or persuades him to eat rocky road ice cream beyond his one serving of chocolate a day.
I loved the progression of their relationship and the depth to each character. Gemma loves big and not only desires to help Jude, but is invested in helping her great grandmother with Alzheimer’s remember her love story. Jude is a care taker who cared for his mother when her world fell apart. Behind that quiet reserve, there’s a passionate heart just waiting to be unfurled. I love the way Gemma got under his skin and helped him embrace life more fully. I also enjoyed the touch of faith woven throughout the story.
One of the joys of this series is the rich side characters. It was so fun seeing Remy & Jeremiah again as well as Wendell & Marisol. I’m also hopelessly invested in Fiona and Burke, and Max finding true love. I also loved getting to know Gemma’s family and her great grandmother’s WWII epic romance.
It’s a delightful slow burn romance enhanced by the complex, well drawn characters. Even though this could be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading Memory Lane first to really get a feel for and understanding of all the characters. I also highly recommend the audiobook version. The narrators were absolutely fantastic. I loved the dual narration and the way both narrators brought these characters to life. I received an advanced complimentary copy of the ebook from the author but also purchased the audiobook. All opinions are my own and voluntarily provided.

I enjoyed Rocky Road a lot more than I did Memory Lane. Wade infused this one with a lot more inspirational and Christian content, which was pleasing and much appreciated. She always plots a great narrative, has engaging dialogue, and these characters had some good growth occur. I'm really looking forward to Max's story. Again, the narrators were excellent and that added to the enjoyment of the story greatly. I purchased an audio copy and was not required to write a review.
