Brainy Bartender: A Hero Club Novel Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 161 ratings

Add one hidden past. A dash of a pretend role. A shot of steamy chemistry. Put it in a shaker, then pour for one exotic cocktail on the rocks!

Wesley Templeton was determined to not follow in his namesake’s path as a Cardiac Surgeon. Was he smart enough for it? Of course, he was a genius after all. Did he have the time and patience to master the craft? Absolutely. Was he going to let his controlling grandfather hold his trust fund over his head until he achieved what was expected of him? Hell no!

Harper Fairchild was the redheaded stepchild. Literally. Smart, nerdy, picked on, and often thought of as an outcast. Her social life was a dismal as her family relationships, so she left when she could and made a new life somewhere else. Unfortunately she found it was hard to break the mold of what cast her as undesirable. Until she loses a bet with a coworker and has to be made-over for a blind date. When that turns into another disaster she escapes to a bar to nurse her emotional wounds, striking up a conversation with the sexy bartender and wondering if she could keep up the ruse of the confident sexy chick she was pretending to be.

    This book was full of sweet, unexpected surprises. I loved that Wes was able to understand Harper, even though he himself hid massive parts of himself. Watching her become confident and loved was a privilege. Natalie developed a brilliant story, it's perfect to devour.

    Brainy Bartender – Natalie Ann – 3.5 stars
    *ARC received in exchange for an honest review*

    Brainy Bartender is Natalie Ann’s addition into the Cocky Hero Book Club. Natalie Ann is a new author to me and one I am excited to explore. Brainy Bartender follows Wes a sexy bartender with a secret and shy and socially awkward Harper. The pair meet at Wes’s bar where he works as the manager and she has just fled a blind date gone wrong. Harper and Wes strike up a conversation and the sparks fly immediately. This slow burn romance is light, fluffy and easy to read with a slightly predictable plot. Personally, I found the characters hard to relate too and that the story was somewhat dragged out unnecessarily, with a quick rush to the finish line. Overall, an enjoyable easy read, but nothing special, would recommend for those wanting a quick, predictable, easy to read romance.

    Enjoy Everyday,
    Ebook Enthusiast 😊

    This book had me confused at first and took some time to read. I'm not a huge fan of books written in the third person as I'm not sure who I am reading about.
    I find if it was written in duel POV I would have enjoyed it more

    As we head into the world of Stuck Up Suit with Brainy Bartender it will be just as smooth with a bit of heat as a glass of whiskey. Wes and Harper are two people who meet across the bar both hiding some of the world from the real people they are. This entertaining story will take you on a journey of love, confrontations and secrets. It is packed with drama, witty moments and a heartwarming romance.

    What a fun story of two people who find their true selves by being strong for each other! This was a super sweet story between Harper and Wes, that shows what we all know that honesty is always the way to go.

    With some laughs, a few white lies and a whole lot of steam you fall in love with these two almost immediately. It was great to see Graham and Soraya too! She was always one of my favorites!

    I liked the way this story was told, this was my first book by Natalie Ann, but it won’t be my last!

    First off, I just loved how Graham and Soraya fit seamlessly into this story. You felt the connection between Wes and Graham and I loved Soraya's part in the story. Great tie-in.

    Wes and Harper are two people with secrets. What started out as fun soon turned into more and both start having doubts about how the other would feel if they find out the truth. I had my eyes glued until the end! Wonderful sexy steamy read!

    Harper was always ridiculed about the way she dressed and her nerdy ways, but after a disastrous blind date she went into a bar and attempted to put on a confident attitude. There she met Wesley the bartender, who had issues of his own, but struck up a friendship that eventually became meaningful.

    I read the blurb with high hopes, and this story is boring, lack luster, and drags beyond belief. I had ti make myself finish because its written in so many different points of view. You have first, second, and third. I kept screaming in my head to make it stop. I gave it a three because it has the potential to be way better if the author would just choose a point of view, and stop the dragging. Now i have a headache.
