Sunny Shelly’s Audio Review: Charmer by Kayley Loring

AVAILABLE NOW IN AUDIO CHARMER: The Charmer Tour Edition by Kayley Loring in multicast duet narration by Jason Clarke and Emma Wilder with Erin Mallon and Teddy Hamilton!

This is the MULTICAST DUET version of Charmer by Kayley Loring, narrated by Jason Clarke, Emma Wilder, Erin Mallon, and Teddy Hamilton. The content is the same as the original Jason Clarke and Mackenzie Cartwright dual-narrated version, which is still available. Jason Clarke sings all of the song lyrics in this multicast version and he plays guitar for most of the songs.
Charmer is a standalone story, but if you listen to SLEEPER: The Palisades Edition first you’ll be familiar with most of the characters.
NICO
She serves me coffee late at night when I come around to write lyrics, but it’s not the caffeine I’ve gotten addicted to.
We’ve got the spark, but she’s the only woman in town who seems to be immune to my charms.
When it’s time for me to leave for my cross-country tour, I just can’t imagine not seeing her for months.
So I offer her a job on the road with me.
KAT
Everyone in LA knows that Nico Todd has a way with songs and with the ladies.
What he doesn’t know is that I would love to let him have his way with me.
But my life can only revolve around one infuriatingly cute guy—the six-year-old that I live with.
Imagine my surprise when Nico finds out about my little boy and tells me to bring him and my mom on the road too.
And imagine Nico’s surprise when he realizes my son is the biggest charmer of them all.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

I fell in love with Nico back in 2020 after reading Sleeper, and I was thrilled to listen to this new special edition, full-cast audio!

Singer/songwriter Nico Todd has a rep for being a ladies’ man, but from the moment he saw sweet waitress Kat serving coffee in his favorite late-night diner, he was smitten. She’s brushed him off for months, despite feeling a flicker herself whenever she’s around Nico. But as a single mom, Kat knows that her lifestyle and Nico’s lifestyle would just not gel.

But when Nico learns that Kat is a gifted photographer, he offers her a job documenting his upcoming music tour, and takes her son and mother along for the ride. And as it turns out, little Tate is just as charming as Nico! Although Kat tries to keep things completely professional between them when they are on the road, that plan quickly goes by the wayside. They get to know each other well in their close quarters, and Nico not only wins over Kat, but Tate and her mom as well.

Charmer is an absolutely charming story. I love the way Nico breaks down Kat’s walls, and she makes him want the life and family that he never thought he wanted before. He totally steps up as a dad for Tate, and their relationship is heartwarming. Low on angst, big on all the feels, Sleeper is a perfect love story to get lost in! Jason Clarke and Emma Wilder bring Nico and Kat to life in a wonderful duet narration, with Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon voicing the supporting characters. What a fab foursome! And Jason Clarke singing Nico’s songs and playing guitar? Holy smokes!

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
