About this listen
I should not still be hung up on my high school girlfriend.
I’m a billionaire, with a penthouse in New York City, a private plane, and was recently crowned one of Manhattan’s most eligible bachelors.
She’s engaged to my rival. A real prick of a guy whose family is about as famous as mine. So, pictures of the happy couple are plastered everywhere, and it’s driving me insane.
The last time I spoke to her was my freshman year of college, and I never imagined I’d bump into her at a crowded restaurant in the busiest city in the world. But fate had other plans, and when I innocently suggest that the press wouldn’t bother with her wedding plans if she held it in our small Alaskan town where we grew up, I had no idea she’d take me seriously.
Now, I find myself helping her plan the wedding at my dad’s luxury resort while the town’s gossip app follows our every move, afraid that their golden boy will get his heart broken twice by the same girl.
But that’s impossible because she stole my heart when we were 15 and never gave it back.

It’s not a new story. Wife finds out husband’s been cheating on her, and she packs up her four kids and heads back to her hometown of Sunrise Bay, Alaska. Yeah, not a fresh start, but thousands of miles away from my ex will do just fine. I’m prepared for the cold weather, the early snowfalls, and dark days and nights. What I’m not prepared for is coming face-to-face with my ex’s cousin, and for the same feelings from 20 years ago to ignite like the flame never went out.

The start of Lee Burrows and I was a college girl’s biggest fantasy. Campus’ most popular guy, the starting quarterback, the same guy I’ve crushed on forever, notices me—the quiet introvert. Although, he never would’ve noticed me if he didn’t need my help passing our biology class. I didn’t think I had a chance with him until he started flirting with me and asking me questions like, “Who was the guy you were talking to?” and “Do you have a boyfriend?”

Story
As a divorced single father, I live by three rules: Make sure every day my daughter, Paisley, knows she’s number one in my life. No matter what, keep contact with my cheating ex-wife to a minimum, and turn Maxwell Wineries into a legacy that keeps Paisley set for life. When I hire Lexi to look after my daughter, I realize I need another rule: Don’t pursue Paisley’s nanny. But even if I had that rule it wouldn’t matter. Because I'm breaking it already.

I can’t borrow him. He’s not a sweater or a skirt. He’s not even her favorite dress - the lucky one she wears on first dates. The one she probably wore on her first date with him. In my defense, I didn’t know who he was. To me, he was a cool, calm, confident stranger. He was perfection for the entire hour-and-a-half train ride, while the concrete jungle turned into a rolling green landscape.

It was supposed to be the best day of my life. But the second I got up, things started to fall apart. The kitchen just caught on fire. Flowers were from a funeral. My bride-to-be just had an allergic reaction, leaving by ambulance. Oh, and my ex-girlfriend just walked into the church. They say you have to see the signs when they are right in front of you. Maybe she was just mine to have.

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.

Five hockey players, a cabin in the woods...and little old me, Winnie Berlin. Sounds like the start of a fantasy, right? But it's not. It's my reality. It all started when I got lost in the middle of the Canadian Rockies. A wicked thunderstorm sent my car mud sliding into a ditch, and for a girl whose survival skills involve finding the nearest Starbucks, I was in deep trouble. Forced to abandon my car in search of help, I stumbled upon a cabin in the middle of nowhere.

Once I saw Marnie Long, a sassy, sultry, charismatic older woman in a bar, I couldn’t peel my eyes off her. I wanted her. At least, for one night. I’m way too busy with my career these days for anything more. As it turned out, after recently getting burned, Marnie was on the same page as me—all she wanted was one night of fun. I was happy to be of service. What I didn’t expect during our night together, however, was how deeply we connected. Also, how much I was dying to see her again the next morning.

I got confused with the voice of Zenzie’s father. Is he suppose to be Filipino too? Or a white man?

A great enemies to lovers/second chance romance!
The Trouble With Runaway Brides is the third book in the Lake Starlight series by Piper Rayne, featuring an entertaining enemies to lovers/second chance romance for Lance and Kenzie. Lance might be a successful billionaire, but he still has a weakness named Kenzie, his high school girlfriend, and the one he let get away. Now she’s marrying his arch nemesis in his family’s hotel, and he is helping with the planning! Too bad his heart didn’t get the memo that Kenzie was not his anymore. Despite all the pain and hard feelings from the past, the love is still there between them. As they plan the wedding without the groom, they begin to repair their friendship. Will they make it through this wedding planning process with their hearts intact?
I was so excited to return to Lake Starlight again, and this book did not disappoint!! There’s so much backstory with Lance, Kenzie, Easton, and Brinley that this book was full of emotion, drama, and angst! It was clear early on that Kenzie shouldn’t be with Will, but the “Will they or won’t they” aspect of Lance and Kenzie’s relationship was played up to the max! When they finally did unleash their passion for each other at the end of the book, it was like a five-alarm fire had erupted!🥵🥵 Once again, the Bailey family and the townspeople bring the banter, the gossip, and small town camaraderie that make me feel right at home every time I read one of these books! I’ll be anxiously awaiting the next one!!
I also listened to the duet audio version, narrated by Aiden Snow and Emily Woo Zeller. I loved both of them in this duet format. They really brought the characters to life for me, with all the emotion and angst that was in play. This was my first experience with Emily as a narrator, and I was really impressed with her ability to embody so many unique female voices. Aidan Snow is always a joy to listen to. I hope more authors opt to do duet narration going forward!!

Why is every new book my favorite?
There’s always been something about Lance that drew me in. I don’t know if it was his quiet demeanor when compared to Easton or his drive to achieve all the things. There’s usually something really deep, profound, and dare I say a little sexy to those quiet ones. But Lance’s heart is his true treasure. He has loved and lost, but his dedication to make the dreams of everyone around him come true is his major draw. And his ability to be vulnerable yet still be a beacon is so admirable.
Kenzie has had a hard go in the close friend department ever since the dreaded events that surrounded her, Lance, & Easton. She’s found success in a career of podcasting and she’s found a man she feels that she loves enough to marry. But sometimes, her strong suit is not standing up for herself…especially when it comes to her steamroller of a fiancé, Will.
I loved how Kenzie & Lance were forced together enough to where they found their way back to the true happiness only they could provide each other. In truth, their love never really faded in all their time apart. I loved how Kenzie & Brinley were able to mend their fences, and even Easton was able to find peace in their friendship again. The addition of Blake & Geoff was a little bit of comedic relief & flat out honesty that was needed.
There’s soooooo much history in so many aspects of this story. There’s history between Lance & Will, history between their parents, history between Kenzie & Brinley, Kenzie & Easton, & most of all Kenzie & Lance. Then you bring in Kenzie & Lance’s parents, & there’s even more connections to awe over. How it all played out, how every aspect was explored, & how every person was impacted was a fine web of laughter, tears, swoons, & just flat out heart eyes. I love how Piper Rayne always takes me on the most enjoyable emotional rollercoaster.
Audiobook Review:
Aiden Snow’a narration was as spectacular as always. I love his voice, it just draws me in & holds me captive. This was my first listen narrated by Emily Woo Zeller. She took Kenzie’s character & owned it! Her distinction between all off the different female characters was so well done.

It is so much fun seeing this second generation of Baileys!
Seeing the original Bailey couples as parents has been amazing! I’ll start by saying this book has tropes/situations that would usually keep me from picking up the book, but Piper Rayne is a favorite and I had to just attempt it. The angst the first half of this book gave me. Dear lord. But it made the ending so satisfying. I loved Lance so much and he is a total book boyfriend. The way he knows Kenzie and wants the best for her, SWOOOOON. I think readers are going to absolutely love this one. I also CANNOT wait for the next book after that ending!!
