About this listen

Jasper

The kitchen: it's my domain, where I create the best burgers in the Midwest. I'm the man behind the grill at Burgers and Brew, the restaurant and bar I co-own with my best friends. Every night, we're packed, the demand has never been this high. It's the only way I want it, thriving and pushing myself to be the very best.

Then she started her new business across the street from mine.

The one woman who always got under my skin, who pushed me to be better. Lyndee was my biggest rival in school and my biggest regret.

Now, she's in town, and as much as I try, I just can't stay away.

I want her.

Lyndee

A new start: that's what Stewart Grove means for me and my brother. He's the one who pushed me to take the chance on opening my own bakery. I am ready for the long hours, the grueling schedule, and the hard work it will take to be successful.

I wasn't at all prepared to come face-to-face with the man across the street.

An almost kiss in college with the world's most infuriating man has haunted me for the last decade. Now Jasper's here, and I don't think I can resist him.

Things are about to heat up in and out of the kitchen.

I just pray I don't get burned.

Don't Go Away Mad is the second book in the Burgers and Brew Crue series and it is Jasper's story. Jasper and Lyndee went to school together and shared an almost kiss. Now, many years later Lyndee is opening a bakery right near Jasper's restaurant and he is not happy about it.

Jasper and Lyndee go on to reconnect while Lyndee opens her restaurant and Jasper has a great relationship with Lyndee's brother that lives with her. They form a friendship which always has an undercurrent of something more.

Overall the story was pretty mellow with Lyndee making friends with the guys and ladies in Jasper's friend group and Jasper and Lyndee's relationship growing more and more. I struggled a bit with the drama/conflict that unfolded towards the end of the book. It seemed somewhat unrealistic and I don't think it added anything to the story, and it seemed to be forgotton about rather quickly.

I absolutely loved the first book in this story, but this one definitely lacked something. The narrators did a great job withe the narration, but I found myself lacking interest at times. I am intersted to still read the next book in the series as I generally enjoy this author's books. PinkFlamingoProductions TheFlockVIPReviewTeam

Lacey Black pens another fabulous novel set in her “Burgers & Brew Crue” series and it is great to be back in the wonderful world she created and spend time with the equally wonderful characters. Burgers & Brew is a bar restaurant owned and operated by a group of four friends, and they plan on opening a brewery next door, so it is an expanding business. Each book in the series features different lead characters, and their stories stand on their own, but characters crossover into each other’s books and knowing their backstory adds depth to the story. This second book is Jasper Kohlmann’s and Lyndee Gibson’s story, and it is a story that captivates your attention and tugs at your heartstrings the entire time. Jasper is a chef and the kitchen of Burgers & Brew is his domain, and he takes his dishes seriously, creating gourmet burgers and sides. He is tough to work for because he expects perfection, he reminds me of a celebrity chef who is always screaming at contestants competing for prizes and a chef position. He is the type of person you hate to love and love to hate, and he could definitely be a jerk, but he is a good friend to those close to him and has some redeeming qualities. When he sees a former classmate, one he butted heads with, is opening up a bakery across the street, he jumps to the wrong conclusion and almost proved to be the ultimate jerk, but had second thoughts about his actions. Lyndee and her younger brother, Dustin, who she helped take care of growing up, moved to Stewart Grove for a fresh start, pursuing her dream of owning and running her own bakery. Jasper stops in her bakery, Sugar Rush, to see what was up with her, and while he still held a grudge about losing a baking competition, she thought nothing of it. The one thing that was for certain was the chemistry between them, it was electric and undeniable. Any tension between them gets broken when Dustin jumps in and asks for help, and the other guys from Burger & Brew offer their help, too. It was great to watch Jasper and Lyndee first fight the chemistry and then give in and get to know each other better. Lyndee has not had it easy lately, but she is determined to get her business off the ground, and her brother is there to help the best that he can. There is never a dull moment in this book, and the story has the perfect balance of drama, angst, heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. The writing, plot and world building are fantastic, as are the character growth and development. Lacey Black, thank you for another wonderful story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 Lexi Evans and Scott Rose did an amazing job voicing these characters, humanizing them with their personality and were believable in their roles. Evan was fabulous in Lyndee’s role and delivered a perfect portrayal, sweet, determined and fierce, and Rose was just as fabulous in Jasper’s role, with angst and attitude, as well as his caring side. Both were fantastic performing the roles of the secondary characters too, including Dustin. They set the right tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These two made a great team, with voices and talent that complement each other and an entertaining performance that takes the story to another level.
