About this listen
From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne—and her real-life husband and high school sweetheart, Anthony LeDonne—comes a new holiday rom-com that is sure to warm even the coldest heart.
Katherine, an ambitious New York City attorney, gets diagnosed with a concussion and must be monitored for forty-eight hours to make sure it doesn’t get worse. Unfortunately, she forgot to update her emergency contact, so the person they call is her ex-husband, Tom. Unable to be left alone, Katherine reluctantly agrees to travel to Chicago with him for the holidays. But thanks to a blizzard, what should have been a quick plane ride turns into an antagonistic overnight misadventure that stirs up old feelings even as Tom prepares to propose to his girlfriend on Christmas Eve.
A delightful meet-cute between The Proposal and Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Emergency Contact is perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Sophie Kinsella.

Story
Ever since a car accident tore her family apart, Holly has been part of a lonely-hearts holiday letter–writing club. Each December, she writes to a stranger who is also spending Christmas alone, and receives a letter from another lonely person in return. Usually, the letters go unanswered. That’s the point—the letters are anonymous, and the senders write whatever is in their heart. But this year, the letter Holly receives is different; not only is the letter full of a grief she knows all too well, but its writer, Emma, mentions a place that Holly has visited.

And who better to secretly test the old-fashioned tips on than Jack Bradford, chauvinistic creator of rival men’s site Brawler? She’ll write an article that will entertain female readers everywhere and embarrass their sexist nemesis at the same time. Two birds, one stone.

When Iris decides to move to New York to restart her life, she realizes she underestimated how big the Big Apple really is—all the nostalgic movies set in New York she’d watched with her mom while eating their special secret-recipe gelato didn’t quite do it justice. But Bobby, Iris’s best friend, isn’t about to let her hide away. He drags her to a famous autumn street fair in Little Italy, and as they walk through the food stalls, a little family-run gelateria catches her eye—could it be the same shop that’s in an old photo of her mother’s?

Mackenzie ‘Mac’ Austin just wants what any modern commitment-phobic woman in New York wants: a no-strings-attached hook-up, steamy enough to brag about over mimosas the next morning. What she doesn’t want is her dating app’s latest suggestion: preppy, corporate Thomas Decker. So, obviously, she rejects the guy without a second thought. There’s just one snag: he’s sitting next to her, so he witnessed her do it. And now he’s calling her out.

In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a new girl on my arm each night. What I don't like is the new flight attendant on our team's private plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I'll be sure to remind her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she'll be begging to quit her job.

As a prominent divorce attorney and Manhattan’s most eligible bachelor, I’m as sought after in the courtroom as I am in the bedroom. I’ve learned that emotions have no place in either scenario. Not ever. Thus far, my approach to life has served me well. No hassles or strings means no heartache. There’s just one little problem....

Story
Never did I think it would lead me straight into the arms of a serial killer. When the magazine I worked for sent me to write a piece on The Elysian, and the recluse architect who created it, I didn’t know what to expect. It certainly wasn’t him. He was supposed to be cold and cruel, but to me, he was Intoxicating. Magnetic. And impossible to quit. The deeper I fell, the harder it became to ignore a voice inside my head telling me that death followed Cain. I wanted to be wrong. Maybe it was all in my head. But I needed to find the answers. Nothing prepared me for what I found….

As the youngest physics professor at her university, Miranda plans her life with minute precision. But that’s before she’s denied tenure and the promotion she thought was guaranteed. Suddenly, her tidy life is anything but constant. Overdue for a sabbatical, Miranda takes some time to look towards the stars—only this time, she’s not looking for black holes. With her faith in science shaken, Miranda turns to a practice she’s long dismissed as preposterous: astrology. Determined to figure out why her life has suddenly gone sideways, Miranda commits to a year of letting her horoscope guide her.

Hey. You looking for a steamy single parent romantic comedy? How about three single dad steamy rom coms and one single mom steamy rom com? The Name in Lights Collection contains three full standalone novels and a bonus novelette that's set in the same world. What's a novelette, you might ask? It's slightly shorter than a novella and longer than a short story, but equally as entertaining as a novel. Really!

I'm not the kind of girl who has one-night stands. Except...I did. What can I say? After a few drinks with a gorgeous man who made me feel alive for the first time since losing my mom, I was powerless to say no. And I didn't regret it. Not one minute of our hot, mind-melting night together. But he wasn't a forever kind of guy. So I walked away. I wasn't supposed to ever see him again. Then I did. Turns out my sexy one-night stand is Dr. Jacob Mitchell - and he's the cardiothoracic surgeon who just saved my dad's life.

As CEO of Andes Inc, the infuriatingly handsome and incessantly grumpy Weston also happens to be my new boss. It shouldn’t have been hard to continue avoiding him. After all, he’s on the executive floor, and I’m one of many copywriters. Weston has his own ideas about how things should go between us. He’s in my emails, leaving notes on my desk, and as if that’s not enough, he arranges for me to accompany him on a business trip.

Funny! Really loved the banter.
Very fun light read as I always laugh when listening to Lauren Layne books, I love the humor in them. This story took a bit too long to get to the point & needed a hit better ending but all in all I really liked it.

The banter in this story is wonderful. It's sometimes laugh out loud funny. Towards the end, I had so many feelings. The narration was perfect by Tim Paige and Brianna Cohen.

Christmas romance
Loved it. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the part where a line is repeated and it was missed in production as well as a voice change of Katherine at the end of the book. Otherwise it was a perfect warm Christmas unexpected romance.

The snarky humor.
I love the humor in this book. The witty barbs and comments. I would have given it five stars, but it was a bit too predictable for my preference. Not a lot of surprises.

There was no appeal for me I did listen all the way thru but not sure why. It was grating the way both main characters acted. I cannot see how there was any love between them.

A Phenomenally Fun Holiday Read with Heart
This audio had me CACKLING! If you love a second chance, once-married story line & LOTS of banter, this is the read for you!
Emergency Contact is the story of a “grinchy” Katherine, who finds herself in the hospital after an accident leaves her concussed & under the care of her ex-husband, Tom. You see, Tom was never officially removed as her emergency contact. With no one else to watch her, Tom begrudgingly brings her home for Christmas. Together these two endure all the misfortunes of holiday travel while rediscovering what made them fall in love in the first place.
The banter in this was on another level! These two former exes went no holds barred on each other’s flaws during their travel together but, as the barbs were traded, they also unraveled a new understanding of each other and what went wrong. The audio narration was perfect for his humorous and healing read!

Romantic and Good Banter
Emergency Contact has no steam, but it really did not need it. The romance was in the small moments as Tom and Katherine reconnect after Katherine got into an accident and needed Tom to be with her. He needed to get home from New York to Chicago, but Katherine, who is addicted to her phone, kept making them delayed. This forced them to communicate what happened 4 years ago, and to realize that neither really moved on from each other despite that Tom was supposed to be proposing to another woman on Christmas Eve. The banter was from playfully hostile to sweet, and as Tom and Katherine reconnected, they fought to help each other give what each other wanted most in the world, even if it cost the other. Emergency Contact has heart, holiday vibes, a beautiful second chance romance, great banter, but most of all, it was romantic with an opposite attract. This story definitely qualifies as relationship in trouble as well. It’s a gorgeously written story! Highly recommend for a holiday romance!
