Summary
One of the New York Times’ Best Romances of 2023.
From Emma Barry comes a clever romance about a hot veterinarian and a chicken-loving influencer who can’t help but ruffle each other’s feathers.
Nicole Jones needs a fresh start. “Chick Nic” to millions of internet fans, the social media star and her flock of chickens bask in the spotlight—until she’s publicly dumped by a YouTuber for clout. She has no choice but to round up her birds and move on.
But when one of her hens has an emergency, Nic gets her first taste of her new stomping grounds—and it isn’t good. Veterinarian Will Lund is wildly attractive, yes, but he’s also surly. In fact, he comes right out and calls her a menace for parading her chickens on social media.
As neighbors, Nic and Will can’t exactly avoid each other. Then again, maybe they don’t want to. The two can’t deny their smoldering attraction, and it isn’t long before late-night confessions lead to backyard shenanigans.
Is this the start of a neighborly relationship—or could something more be hatching?
Critic reviews
“Listeners will be delighted by narrators CJ Bloom's and Aaron Shedlock's snappy, animated performances. Full of heart, humor, and slow-bum steam.”—Library Journal, starred review
“CJ Bloom and Aaron Shedlock work together wonderfully to enhance this fun contemporary romance.… Bloom is full of energy and compassion; she uses no-nonsense pacing and provides a lower register when warranted. Shedlock adds the swoon with a slight Southern drawl. All in all, this is a fun romp with a great heart.”—AudioFile Magazine
“Chick Magnet has one of the best epilogues I’ve ever read, and it’s a perfect demonstration of why writers keep going back to small-town settings. Because underneath all the cupcakes and cruel memories, there is one great promise at the heart of a small-town romance: there’s always a first time for second chances.”—New York Times
