This is a great audiobook! The narrators do a fabulous job of bringing the story to life. This book was just so good! It's honestly my new favorite of the whole series. Charlie, Will and Beckett are perfect together. I loved their banter and chemistry. They had me swooning and sweating in the best way. This book has lots of humor, heart and heat. I highly recommend it and the entire campus diaries series. You won't be disappointed!

Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Select for allowing me to listen to this book ahead of release in exchange for my honest opinion.

I absolutely loved the story. It was so fun it was different but at the same time gave the Elle Kennedy iconic spicy romance sports romance ()hockey!). I adored all the characters and I’m so sad this is the end of the series! I can’t wait to see what the author comes up with next.

The epilogue also made my heart swell and I’m so glad there is a HEA with closure.

As far as the narration goes, I didn’t fully love it. I still had a good time and enjoyed it. But at times the narration took me out of the story or felt a bit awkward or the accents were a bit off from what I thought the accent and super deep voice combo would be.

Still enjoyable and worth reading / listening but the narrators just were not my personal favorites together.

Thank you to redprbooks for a copy of this ALC in exchange for my opinions!

After recently reading this book, I listened to only my favorite parts of the ARCs and (admittedly) a smutty scene because I was curious to hear how they sounded 👀

I will have to say, I think the FMC’s voice is okay but Will’s and Beckett’s were a bit off to me. I had to focus on Beckett’s accent to be able to hear it but it sounded close to American. Will’s wasn’t bad, just wasn’t what I had in my head. I think Will and Charlie’s were okay, but not necessarily remarkable.

Audio aside, this story is amazing and truly one of my favorites this month so everyone needs to read this!!! Audio or physical! 😍

This was a well-narrated audiobook, I loved that it was a dual narration and how the different characters were narrated, you could tell with Teddy narrating both mmcs how distinct they made each of them and I never once was confused. The audiobook is well-produced and narrated and I loved the different accents.

This was my favorite in the series so far and I liked it. Everything from the romance to the plot kept me hooked and invested. The fmc Charlie is adopted and a STEM major, She is very smart, part of a sorority, and loves to hook up with men but isn't into relationships. After her last hook up she starts talking to these 2 men on the dating app and she's into both but doesn't know she knows them. Will and Beckett are the two mmcs and they aren't together but they do share women when they hook up.

I liked that it was a process with the fmc getting comfortable with being with two men. I also loved how it started with just smut and developed a real relationship. One thing I called out was how confident the fmc was how much she liked hooking up and didn't feel bad about it. it was good to see a fmc that embraced her sexuality and libido tbh. The plot with the fmc trying to connect with her birth family and brother was really interesting and also the politics and relationship plot was nice. There are a lot of steamy scenes and I liked it. I liked the connection to the first-gen characters and seeing the name drops without it being too much overall a really good read! Thanks to the publisher for this ALC!

Charlotte Kingston has two identities. For her parents, she’s the quintessential college senior, studying STEM and a member of her Mom’s sorority. But her alter ego, Charlie, is a risk taker looking for fun and the regular hookup. When she meets two guys on an online dating site who are interested in a threesome, she jumps at the chance. But no one is more surprised than Charlie when it turns out they are non other than her schoolmates and hockey team heroes, Will and Beckett.

I can’t lie, I was kind of hoping for a Beckett/Will HEA but the next best thing is BW + Charlie. I love how each book in the series is wholly unique while also having the interconnected qualities we have grown to expect from these different Briar U series. The chemistry was smoking hot between these three, and those who love the doors off the hinges steam, will go crazy for this book.

And yet, there is a really unique emotional component that I enjoyed so much too - Charlie coming to terms with her feelings around being adopted and finding a missing family member. The push and pull Charlie feels between not only the duality of her family, but also her identity, resonated with me and I found myself completely intrigued with the chapters featuring her family, most notably Harrison.

🎧 The duet narrated audio was a lot of fun, especially when it came to hearing Beckett’s Australian accent (narrated by Sean Masters). Co-narrators Teddy Hamilton and Persephone Lee also did a fantastic job. All in all, It was fun, flirty and highly entertaining. While I don’t always enjoy steam on audio, the narrators voices were so spot on, it didn’t distract me as much as it usually does.

It’s always sad to see a series end, but I think Charlie, Will and Beckett’s story is a fantastic way to close out this chapter.

Thank you Elle Kennedy, Bloom Books, Get Red PR, and Dreamscape for the gifted copies.

and if i told you this wasn’t the end?? that i was keeping elle kennedy locked up in my basement forcing her to continue to write about the off campus world what then?! i am distraught. this was the best ending, steamy as EVER, and i’ve loved the little sneak peeks at the second gen of kids ;’))

5 Stars! Persephone Lee + Sean Masters+ Teddy Hamilton = A audiobook readers dream trio! This book was everything we needed from a MFM romance book! The plot and character depth Elle Kennedy gave us in this book, it is truly so hard to not love and respect everyone in this book! I was already in love with Will & Beckett in Dixon Rule. I knew their story was going to be everything.
ELLE you gave us SPICE and in the best way! Thank you for this story and thank you for a trio of narrator that delivered! This might be my favorite one in the series and that is saying a lot because I am ride or die for GIGI & Ryder!
Thank you for the opportunity to hear this story, we can not wait to have this book on our shelves and we can not wait for people to meet these three beautiful souls!

This was one of my favorite books that I have read this year and maybe even last year! This story has everything…humor, spice, and sensitive topics. The depth of the development that these characters had was so beautiful. I loved the realistic portrayal of adoption as well as not feeling good enough.

The hockey team shenanigans were on point, of course! I always enjoy getting to see the boys from this generation, but I enjoy even more when we get to see the first generation! As always, Mike Hollis makes me laugh until I have tears in my eyes, and I don’t blame him for wanting to join DadChat. #Hollisfordadchats #justiceformikehollis

A fantastic ending to the Campus Diaries Series. I was so excited to read Will and Beckett's story and Charlie was a great new addition to the series! I loved that each character had a well-written individual storyline in addition to the focus on their romance. The banter in this book is also the best in the series.

I was fortunate enough to have a copy of the audiobook and the narrators are perfect! Teddy Hamilton is always one of my favorite narrators and is, as usual, a perfect narrator who brings the character to life.

Will + Beckett ❤️ I feel like you can't go wrong reading Elle Kennedy when you are in the mood for a sports romance. MFM Romance, Sports Romance, Cinnamon Roll MMC, and Spice! I love the character Charlie. You see her really step out of that mold she had put herself into trying to be so perfect. The audiobook really kept me entertained, and it was hard to stop it to do anything else! I love Elle Kennedy's books and can't wait to pick up the physical copy.

Intelligent, complex, and deliciously dirty. Some are going to eat this up; some aren't going to finish it. Beckett fans will finally get everything they have been waiting for in this series. Larson fans may still be left pining in the end — because how does one possibly get their fill of Will? New to the series STEM student, Charlie, is smart & sassy and the perfectly written female for this complicated relationship. I would describe this as M/F/M not M/M/F, in case you're hesitant. All three MCs are thoroughly fleshed out from their own pov and the story is packed with the emotional depth, steamy scenes, and witty banter that has become Kennedy's signature. The Dad Chat is everything in this book! This feels like a wrap, I really hope it's not the end of Briar U.

The audio narration of this book is phenomenal. It was written so well from three different pov, elevated by an A-lister cast that absolutely knocked it out of the park in accent and emotional inflection. Absolutely exceeded my expectations.

I love Elle Kennedy’s campus diaries series. The latest installment, The Charlie Method was a great listen.

Thank you Netgalley and Dreamscape Select | Elle Kennedy Inc for the ALC. My opinions are being left voluntarily. I hadn't read the previous two books innthe series so jumping mid series with no knowledge of other characters etc.. I felt this had alot going on and many different plot point directions and wasn't sure what to expect. As a surprise to no one the narration is exactly what I wanted and loved the 3 voices. The story though felt it needed better direction, editing and less going on.

4.5/5

Any book that exists in the Briar University world is guaranteed to bring me immense joy. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙚 𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙙 did exactly that. From start to finish, I truly enjoyed this book. There were plenty of laugh out loud moments, lots of hockey team banter, a swoon worthy romance, and emotional depth.

The main characters were impossible not to love. Charlie, Beckett, and Will were such genuine characters navigating their own traumas and conflicts. Charlie with her adoption, Beckett with his past, and Will with his father. Then they enter into this situationship completely unaware that they’re going to fall hard and fast for one another. They really crept up on each other and brought out the very best in one another. They were exactly right together and I loved seeing each characters growth throughout the book.

I also really enjoyed the nostalgia aspect. It’s in every quip from Coach Jensen, it’s in dad chat, it’s in those classic Hollis moments, and it’s definitely in the setting. But what I really loved was Elle Kennedy’s ability to give us those special callbacks while simultaneously giving us new characters and a new story to fall in love with. I am looking forward to what’s next in the Briar world! 🩵

🎧 I also listened to the audiobook of 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙚 𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙙 and was so incredibly impressed by it. The narrators Teddy Hamilton, Persephone Lee, and Sean Masters portrayed these characters beautifully. I absolutely loved it. It truly enhanced my reading experience.

A huge thank you to Elle Kennedy, Hambright PR, NetGalley, and Dreamscape Media for providing me with an ARC & ALC of 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙚 𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙙!

I will start by saying, if you do not like spicy books, this is probably not for you. Charlotte lives two lives, the high achieving engineering student and sorority VP of finance who has it all together, and Charlie, the risky, explorative girl looking for fun. She meets two guys on an app who she starts to chat with but struggles with knowing that people will talk about it if they knew. Will Larsen has a congressman father who expects him to be the perfect child and he just wants to carve his own path. His bestie, Beckett, is the ultimate playboy but is secretly a softie once you get to know him. Charlie finds out that who she has been talking to on the app and that they are both Briar U hockey players that she has class with.

This story was super spicy but had so much more to it. The main character, Charlie, was adopted as a baby and throughout the story she struggled with wanting to find out about her birth parents and if she had and siblings. Some of the feelings expressed in this book are spot on with things I have thought about since I was adopted as a baby as well. I enjoyed that storyline just as much as the relationship aspect. As always, Elle Kennedy knocked this one out of the park.

The narration was great. I am a big Teddy Hamilton fan so was excited to see he was in this one.

let us begin not by saying i didn't have high hopes, but maybe that i was already walking in feeling disappointed, because after hinting at a MM romance for two books, she just added this character out of nowhere, and i didn't like that. however, i made an effort because others book have surprised me before, but i just simply didn't like it. there were too many thing i didn't particularly likes, and they are my opinion, so please respect them.

<spoiler>* let's start with the throuple. i don't like throuples, simply because it always feels like one of the three is pushed aside, and guess what? it happened. moreover, i've seen people saying will is the main boyfriend, or whatever, but he was nowhere to be found halfway through the end, which was annoying because he had the potential to be someone good

* don't get me wrong, i love the off campus series, it was what got me back into reading. however, and i understand this is a second gen series, this people were in no way related to the OGs, so why are they so many mentions of them

* i found there were quite a few things underdeveloped:
1. there were too many side characters, which made it hard to read because no one seemed to bring anything to the table
2. there was a subplot about a fanfiction that took to many pages and too many mentions to make it annoying enough that i contemplated not finishing this book
3. the racial aspect of charlies life, and her adoption, i don't know if this book had sensitivity readers, and maybe i'm misunderstanding because i'm not of that race and don't really understand it, but i though it was a bit poorly written, and it came disrespectful at times (please correct me if i'm wrong)
4. i found the relationship between the main characters to be underdeveloped too, like she was rushing out whilst writing this one, which is sad because i truly enjoyed the other two books
5. and last and hopefully least, the whole "i feel like two different people if i'm either charlotte or charlie" and this two men were in the book just to be her accesories— if you want an accesory, get a new pair of shoes.</spoiler>

Many thanks to NG, Elle Kennedy, and Dreamscape Select for giving me the opportunity to listen to The Charlie Method in exchange of my honest opinion

Another emotionally gut-wrenching, incredibly SPICY, why choose, multiple POV, MMF college hockey romance between adopted Korean born Charlotte 'Charlie' who finds herself sexting two friends who like to hookup with the same girls.

Charlie is a type-A sorority and STEM student with anxiety and panic attacks who gets nervous when she does a DNA test that turns up a half brother. She also is working on grad school applications and her final capstone project so to let off steam she drives fast cars, writes historical romance fanfic and secretly sexts with anonymous guys.

But when her latest sext buddy turns out to be her lab partner and one of the school's star hockey players, things get especially complicated, especially after she finds herself falling for both him and his best friend and teammate.

Super spicy with great emotional depth, this was excellent on audio narrated by Teddy Hamilton, Sean Masters and Persephone Lee and perfect for fans of Lauren Blakely's My hockey romance series. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an early audio and physical ARC copy in exchange for my honest review!

CW: death of a loved one to cancer, anxiety and panic attacks

All the sugar puffs! The Charlie Method by Elle Kennedy was a sweet and spicy MFM college hockey romance that had me swooning, smiling, and blushing from start to finish. I have adored every couple in the Campus Diaries series, and couldn’t wait for Charlie, Will, and Beckett’s romance. Elle always has a way of creating such memorable and emotional characters, and I couldn’t get enough of these three!

Persephone Lee, Teddy Hamilton, and Sean Masters perform this audiobook in duet-style narration. I absolutely loved these three together on this audiobook, making this an entertaining, steamy listen. Persephone is a new to me narrator. I adored the softness in her tone that captured Charlotte’s prim and proper sorority girl persona, while also adding a feisty, edge to her voice to capture Charlie’s adventurous, sexy side. Teddy’s warm, inviting voice exuded all things Will giving him the perfect amount of boy-next-door charm and allure. Sean’s Australian accent for Beckett was a whole vibe encompassing his dominance in the bedroom and his vulnerability to love again. All three narrators create tension and heat right from the start. It’s HOT.

Overall, I LOVED this book. If you are a fan of an MFM college romance with two hot confident hockey players, a passionate dedicated sorority girl, online dating apps, finding new kinks, finding your biological brother, college parties, lots of steamy times, fanfiction fun, rave fantasies, Dad Chat text exchanges, jealous exes, secret romance, more three-way spice, family drama, post-college plans, finding a new normal, and a HEA that is the perfect method for you heart, then you will love Charlie, Will, and Beckett’s story. I always look forward to more from Elle Kennedy.
