About this listen
Drew and Jenny have spent years being the envy of their friends with their out of control sex lives - well, not really. Mostly it makes their friends want to throw up in their mouths a little.
With two little kids and two busy lives, for the first time, Drew and Jenny aren't on the same page in the bedroom. Drew will stop at nothing to get his previously amorous wife back in the sack, and Jenny will do anything for a full night of sleep.
Carter and Claire, and Jim and Liz are their usual (un)helpful selves and are full of advice for the discontented duo, wanting nothing more than to help restore order to the usually happy couple's lives.
In the third and final installment of the Chocolate Lovers Series, will Drew and Jenny find the spark that's been missing in their marriage, or will the trouble they're having cause a stickier situation than the time Jenny poured honey all over Drew and he fused himself to a tree?

Twenty-five-year-old Gavin Ellis has always had the love and support of his family ever since he was a little boy and couldn't stop talking about his penis. He's also always had their unsolicited advice and uncanny knack of embarrassing him at all costs. Now that he's an adult and trying to convince the love of his life to love him back, things haven't changed very much from when he was younger. When Gavin's best friend, Tyler, suggests he make a to-do list of items that will ensure he wins the girl, Gavin is 100 percent on board: after a few six packs.

Story
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
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.

Story
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. So she started Fool Me Once Investigations to stick it to the man — because there’s no better bounty hunter than a woman scorned. 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.

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.

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.

Filthy, excessive, unnecessary foul language.
What did you like best about Troubles and Treats? What did you like least?
Humorous at times but a lot of nasty language.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Cleaned up the language.
Have you listened to any of Romy Nordlinger’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No. She doesn't pull off male voices well at all.
Did Troubles and Treats inspire you to do anything?
No.

Hillarious
This is a story of the bumps in the road you may encounter in your marriage after you have kids and become permanently tired. The author writes about a very serious situation in a very hilarious way. I laughed so much listening to this story I worried people around me would think I was going crazy. It's a very entertaining story and by this third book the narrator did a better job. I recommend this story for when you really need to get away and have fun.

This was funny love that Drew got his own book. Jenny and Drew were having wild kinky sex and once the second child came along it all stopped. Sometimes life gets in the way and couples have to make time talk and bring the sexy back. I am so glad Jenny and Drew found their spark.

What a Treat
Where does Troubles and Treats rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The story is fantastic and one of the funniest I have ever read/heard. It is my go to series when I am in a funk and need a pick me up.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
I felt the person reading wasn't quite right for the voice, she is a little hard to listen to as she gets annoying. Plus she doesn't do different voices for the characters which made it a little hard to fallow. I really prefer girl voices for the girl roles and guy voices for the men parts.
Any additional comments?
I will say that even though the person hired to read these stories is lacking it wasn't bad enough to deter me to not buy the series audio books
