About this listen

From USA Today bestselling author Penelope Bloom comes the first novel in the romantic, sexy, and hilarious Anyone But… series.

Seven years ago, my best friends and I made a promise: No matter what, we would never date one of the King brothers. Even if they grew up to become megafamous, gorgeous, heart-stopping billionaires. Even if they crawled on their knees and begged for forgiveness.

But guess who just flew back into our lives in a private jet? And guess who just showed up to my job on my first day? Richard. King. Fortunately, it takes two seconds for Richard to reveal he hasn’t changed. Conceited. Cocky. Rude. Unfortunately, he’s also the kind of gorgeous that’s borderline offensive - with a jawline to make statues self-conscious and a grin that short-circuits my brain.

He’s spent years taking what he wants. I doubt he’s hungry for anything else - except me, apparently. There’s no way I’ll let him maneuver his way back into my life. My friends would never forgive me. I would never forgive me. But did I mention his jawline?

Book 1 of King Brothers

Three brothers who made it big in Silicon Valley move their business to the small NC town they grew up in. Why? Three girls they hurt 7 years prior at the end of high school and yet seemed to never forget
Three girls who swore to each other they would never date the King Bros
This is Richard and Kiera’s story. Great banter, some steam, low angst, enough to keep you on your toes
Great narration and can’t wait for brother No. story.

It’s a NO

The story leave you to think and feel mostly agitation, irritation, and annoyance. The characters are immature, foolish, and just unsavory. Some stories are fun. Some are spicy. Some help you to “feel”. This one…. Did not need to be written. I read and listened through it and I didn’t feel anything remotely good, while reading. Mostly I just thought “wtf is wrong with these people. And why are they literally all written this way?” Didn’t learn anything. Didn’t enjoy it. It was pointless.

Enjoyed 👍

First Tim and Paige did a great job narrating this book. I got a lot of laughs. It was very humorous. Kara and Rich made a perfect couple. They got over issues that happened seven years ago and focused on the now. I loved that. It wasn't easy but they made it. Good love story and well worth listening to!

ok story

The story was good but there were many instances where it was a bit childish for my liking. I get this all started in high school but some of the characters act like they haven't made it to high school yet; let alone been out for 7 years.

Anyone But Rich

Be careful what you promise as teenagers because when you grow up, especially when you grow up sexy as Rich does, it is hard to keep those promises. This was a sexy and fun read and it was so much fun to watch Rich and Kira fall for each other. It is going to be fun to see what happens with the other friends and brothers.

So Sweet

I truly enjoyed this story from start to finish. Good plot and good characters. The only thing that makes it seem unrealistic is young people with billions of dollars. Other than that I enjoyed most of the characters.

Loved it!

This is a great start to another fun series by Penelope Bloom. Her characters' off the wall humor and steamy love scenes make these stories so much fun! I loved Rich and Kira's subterfuge and can't wait to see what's going to happen with Cade & Iris!

Enjoyable Story!

3.75 Stars for me!

Cute story with minimal angst, minor drama and a small amount of heat. Overall, it was an enjoyable read without a huge make or break moment. The only major drawback for me was some of the forced gotcha moments although my wife likes them.

2.8 stars

Anyone But Rich is a boring book. I did not like the hero and heroine.
The story pace was too slow. I skipped many chapters .
I loved only the hero narration.

Good start to a series

Don’t judge a book by its cover. For some reason when I see the cover of this book I was expecting some sort of dark romance which is not the case whatsoever. This is what I would classify as a lighthearted almost romcom, enemies to lovers story. The characters were interesting and fun and I can’t wait to jump into the next book in the series.
