A single dad, an underwear model, a baker, and baseball-loving former boy band member find love with four fun, incredible women in this compilation of the first three books and a spin-off from Pippa Grant’s Copper Valley Bro Code romantic comedy series.
About the books:
Flirting with the Frenemy is a rollicking fun romantic comedy featuring a single dad military man, an irritatingly attractive blast from his past, pirates, cursing parrots, and a wedding gone wild.
America’s Geekheart is a rockin’ fun fake-dating romantic comedy featuring a billionaire fashion mogul who got his start modeling underwear, the geeky girl next door with a secret the size of California, and more superstitions and secrets than you can shake a baseball bat at.
Dirty Talking Rival is a deliciously fun friends-to-enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy featuring a smooth-talking baker, the one who got away, and a goat with more matchmaking tendencies than a nosy old grandpa.
Liar, Liar, Hearts on Fire is a competitively fun office romance between a single dad obsessed with baseball, an heiress with secrets, baseball pants, a rundown team, and rabid ducks.
All four of these romantic comedies stand alone and come complete with swoony happily-ever-afters. They’re presented in chronological story order for the best reader experience.

Review:
This audiobook is more than 35 hours of audio goodness, so I’m still working my way through it! I’ve finished the first book so far, Flirting with the Frenemy…more reviews to come as I finish them!
This was cute–and more than a little silly at times–overall, though, a fun read. It’s a brother’s best friend, forced proximity, single (he’s in the military!) dad story–all very promising!
Ellie and Wyatt have known each other since childhood, and their personalities have clashed for just about that long. But then there’s that Christmas holiday when newly divorced Wyatt encounters freshly dumped Ellie and..things happen. Almost before they’re done Wyatt declares it a mistake, Ellie leaves, and then her whole life changes.
Six months later, her brother’s machinations bring them back together again and hijinks ensue with a pirate-themed festival and wedding (which of course requires a fake relationship, since her evil ex will be there), renegade goats, a maybe-broken Frogger arcade game, and many, many bubble baths.
I enjoyed watching them grow closer, even if the “catastrophes” that seemed to follow their relationship around were a bit silly, bordering on OTT at times. Wyatt’s son was all kinds of adorable, and I was never sorry to see him on the page.
The reason for their relationship black moment was a complete overreaction, I thought–fortunately the individual who had the freak out gets over it, though they do so off the page, which felt like a cheat, almost. Still, they ended up together in the end and there were all kinds of cute bonus epilogues, so…win!
Oh, and we have a complete tease at the end for the next book–Ellie’s brother Beck’s story–he’s done something disastrous and Ellie and Wyatt need to drop everything and go help him. We don’t get any real details past that, but fortunately I have the entire Bro Code volume one on audio, so starting immediately in on book 2 ( America’s Geekheart ) is easy peasy.
The audiobook is dual narration, and both narrators do a great job! I’m definitely looking forward to listening to the rest of the set.
Rating: 4 stars / B+
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
About the author:
Pippa Grant wanted to write books, so she did. Before she became a USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling romantic comedy author, she was a young military spouse who got into writing as self-therapy. That happened around the time she discovered reading romance novels, and the two eventually merged into a career. Today, she has more than 30 knee-slapping Pippa Grant titles and nine written as Jamie Farrell. When she’s not writing romantic comedies, she’s fumbling through being a mom, wife, and mountain woman, and sometimes trying to find hobbies. Her crowning achievement? Having impeccable timing for telling stories that will make people snort beverages out of their noses. Consider yourself warned.
