They called me America’s smartest entrepreneur. So how was I dumb enough to let my dream girl get away?

I built my billion-dollar business slinging a hammer. Not with a law degree like the rest of my tight-knit family. An entire chain of luxury resorts bears my name. But that’s a cold comfort when the woman I love hates my guts. She should, considering how things ended.

So I set out to win Lauren back by moving to this quirky small town and scoring a spot on her family’s reality TV show. Between a botched baking class, sexy bumper car battles, and a bizarrely hostile fish, I’m almost sure we’ll get our second chance at love. Too bad Lauren’s in no hurry to pick up where we left off. Even if our chemistry’s still off-the-charts hot. Good thing I’m no quitter, especially when it comes to her.

One-click this small town rom-com about a self-made billionaire trying to secure his second chance at love with the woman he let get away...if he can convince her to stop hating him.

I found this storyline a bit slow and it took a lot to get into it. I miss the banter that was in the first two books. The narrators didn’t add to the story. I just struggled with the story.

Communication, communication, communication. We always heart that communication is the key to a successful relationship. And in this case it's the absolute truth. There is so much that Nick and Lauren need to talk about and yet as hard as they try, lack of communication is their biggest downfall. That's why their relationship failed two years ago and if they're not careful this time around, it's where it will fail again.

I found it interesting that neither Nick or Lo had stopped loving the other during their two year breakup, yet neither of them were willing to reach out and talk to the other about what happened. It makes me wonder what will happen in the future with them. I'm just not sold on this relationship as I'm not sure either is really ready for a lasting relationship. I guess only time will tell.

I both read this book and listened to the audiobook. I much admit that this is my first Benjamin Charles book. I have heard good things about him as a narrator and he did not disappoint. His voice is mesmerizing. Stella Hunter is a really good Lauren. I thought they both played well off of each other with the banter.

Lo and Nick have loads of chemistry but lack comm

Second chances is what Nick is hoping for when he is ask to build more cabins at Juniper Ridge. He missed his chance two years ago with Lauren and he plans to change that.

Lauren was devastated when her and Nick broke up and she doesn't plan to get in that position again but when he shows up in her community working for her family then those feelings that never went away come to the forefront and she must decide is it worth getting hurt again to have love.

This book has lots of feelings in it and a crazy fish as well as some great characters. It stresses the importance of communication on so many levels and of not making assumptions as we all know what happens when we assume. It also shows us we can't please others without first pleasing ourselves. We should never base our life choices on what our parents want or what we think they want nor should we think we are communicating what is in our heads. No one can read our minds so we are responsible for expressing what we feel. Great job, I loved it.

Benjamin Charles and Stella Hunter were amazing narrating this book. Their voices were perfect for Nick and Lauren. I enjoyed listening to them.

I am enjoying this series but this book was a little tougher for me. I appreciated the storyline but some of the actions of the characters just bothered me a little. I still like the premise of building a community for a reality show but this second chance relationship was tricky. In the end, the growth and change of the main characters pays off and the HEA is achieved. I adore Stella Hunter and she did a fantastic job. Benjamin Charles was delicious for the male part but his female voice was almost indistinguishable and so I found myself losing who was talking during some of his chapters. It would have been fine in a duet format.

Another good Juniper Ridge book

You’d have thought I’d confessed to killing kittens while wearing white after Labor Day.

After a horrible misunderstanding, Nick and Lauren's futures went in different directions. Nick gets the opportunity to be part of the reality show that Lauren produces and jumps at the chance to be around her again. Lauren has never really forgiven Nick for the embarrassing way their relationship ended. Nick is determined to prove to Lauren that he messed up and to give them a second chance.

I was excited to return to Juniper Ridge after listening to the first two books. Nick and Lauren had some obvious tension between them given their past misunderstanding. Unfortunately, I failed to feel the romantic connection between them and the humour from the first two books was not as present. I enjoyed connecting with the previous couples and look forward to what is next.

Audio ... Benjamin Charles and Stella Hunter managed to bring the characters and story to life.

3.5 Maple Leafs ... Show Down (Juniper Ridge 3) is a second chance, romantic comedy that is told in the first-person dual point-of-view of Nick and Lauren.
