About this listen
Two years ago, I was a pretty big deal. I thought I had it all, until a blast from my past popped up on my social media feed, keeping my ego in check and reminding me how basic I am. Except sassy Wren Bennett isn't just a blast from my past. She's the only woman I ever saw a future with.
Even though my soul leaves my body every time she says she hates baseball and has never watched me play, a year's worth of messages filled with laughter and sarcasm only remind me how amazing my "pen pal" is. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter how fine I look in a pair of baseball pants; I'm still 3,000 miles away, and she's taken...or so I thought. Maybe I should have thought a little harder before I dropped her like a seeing-eye single into the outfield.
When an injury has me questioning everything about my life, I can only think of one place I need to go and one person I need to see. Home, to Summersweet Island, to get back my "pen pal".
Now I just need to make sure single mom Wren knows I didn't come back for a change, and I didn't come back for a job. I'm swinging for the fences, and I'm finally coming home to make her mine. If only she'd stop insulting me and stay in one place long enough for me to tell her. She wouldn't try to drown me with a tub of ice cream, right?
I'm sure it'll be fine.
Contains mature themes.

Story
After spending my entire pro golfing career being known as the quiet, controlled, no-nonsense golfer, there's nothing more humiliating than throwing all of that down the drain on national television. Needing some place to hide, I can only think of one place I need to be. Summersweet Island, where they'll all be happy to have me home again. Well, except maybe one person. But I'm sure Birdie Bennett, my best friend since I was 15 and the clubhouse manager of my favorite golf course, has had plenty of time to forgive me for that tiny little misunderstanding.

Brooklyn Manning thought her life was perfect in every way, until it crumbled down around her and turned into a dumpster fire. With her pride wounded and her tail tucked between her legs, she leaves New York and goes back to her tiny hometown of White Timber, Montana. No more 24-hour taco trucks, no more shopping at the best designer stores within walking distance, no more giving taxi drivers the finger when they angrily honk at her. She didn’t think it could get any worse. But then Clint Hastings walked into the room and insulted her.

Story
The happiest day of Payton Lambert's life was the day she graduated high school and watched Bald Knob, Kentucky, get smaller and smaller in her rearview mirror. She wanted more for her life than a tiny town where everyone knows your business and you can't find a decent cup of coffee for at least 40 miles. Twelve years later an unexpected phone call in the middle of the night has her packing up her life in Chicago and racing back home to the one person she ever regretted leaving behind.

After war veteran Kennedy O’Brien returned home from Afghanistan and caught her husband in bed with the nanny, she lost her faith in all things male.

Her latest job is a wild dog-chase to slap cuffs on a bail jumper turned Chihuahua thief, but thanks to her meddling family, Kennedy will have to put up with a partner. And it’s about the last man she’d ever pick: Her cheating ex-husband’s best friend, Griffin Crawford.

Rule number one for having a one-night stand: Don’t fall for the girl. After a lengthy dating slump, I finally met someone who sparked my interest. Well, first the sparks flew when we argued. Later in the evening those sparks ignited into something more. I was drawn to Devyn, in a way I hadn’t felt in a really long time. Needless to say, I was disappointed when she abruptly left after our amazing night together. I couldn’t stop thinking about her. But she hadn’t even given me her number. In a city with eight-million people, I figured I’d never see Devyn again.

Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

❤️ Sweet, silly & sexy!! ❤️
I loved this audiobook like I love Unicorns, Glitter and Lisa Frank stickers!! This was my 2nd read and 1st listen of Swing and a Mishap and I love it more with every read! This book is full of Tara Sivec’s signature humor, charm and steamy scenes! I liked Wren and Shepherd when they were introduced in Kiss My Putt and their characters get even better!!
I highly recommend this hilarious friends/enemies to lovers romance!! Though it can be read as a standalone, I suggest you start with Kiss My Putt so you get to know the quirky, funny, lovable residents of Summersweet Island from the beginning.
Kelsey Navarro and Tim Paige give fantastic performances bringing Swing and a Mishap to life! This duo brings the perfect combo of sweet & snark!

Book two was even better than the first
This was a very engaging story and I liked it a lot - it was great to get a different perspective on the primary characters from book 1. Especially loved the sassy matriarch element that was added this time around. A little bit of drama, but manageable... nothing crazy over the top. Super likeable characters and a really enjoyable listen
I was kind of hoping the cheerleader character would be the lead in the next story, since Tess is seemingly already pretty established in her relationship - but we'll see how it goes; I'm in! either way.

Perfect Funny Rom Com
I loved listening to this book and the characters. Wren was extremely relatable to me. My son’s name is also Owen even. I’m not sure if that’s why I like this book as much as I did but i continuously laughed out loud throughout. So far I listened to the first 3 in this series and this is definitely my favorite so far.

great story
This was a good story. Shephard stepped in and did what a lot of men won't do, care for someone else's child. Wren was a hard-working woman that did what she could to raise & teach her son. The author did a great job of creating each character as independent people that worked together to build a new life.

Tara Sivec is a boss!
I loved the first book in this series, but the second is even better! Wren and Shepherd are adorable and so funny. The chemistry between them is off the charts. The flirting and dirty talk had me sitting at my desk red as a beet. The banter between them and all the friends is epic. I don’t just read/listen to Tara’s series for the individual love matches; I read them for the priceless friendship amongst the quirky and hilarious characters and their family members.
I rarely read the synopsis of a book when I see that Kelsey Navarro or Tim Paige are narrating it. And this one had BOTH of them! Shut up and take my debit card! Kelsey and Tim perfectly embody each character, giving them distinct tones and bringing out their personalities. The narration flowed effortlessly. For me, listening to the audiobook is so much better than reading it because these narrators really brought the story to life.
I scream. You scream. We all scream…. Cus Tess has a freaking blow torch and is headed right for us.
