The Expiration Date: A Billionaire Baby Romance by Kimberly Brown
A Review By: LC
Audrey Pilar is a master in the art of breaking up. Her friends have dubbed her ritual of leaving men as “The Expiration Date.” Hurt from her past has caused Audrey to protect her heart at all costs, even if it means self-sabotage. She’s developed the habit of looking for red flags, and it seems to work for her—until she meets Sullivan Santiago. The confident, thirty-three-year-old owner of Sullivan’s Coffee Tavern is unlike anyone she’s ever met, and for Audrey, if it’s too good to be true, it usually is.
Sullivan “Sully” Santiago is a man that says what he means and means what he says. His honesty, though sometimes brutal, has never been a problem for him until he meets the beautiful Audrey Pilar. The twenty-seven-year-old professional crafter caught his eye after he witnessed several of her gentle let-downs in his establishment. Whereas most people would see that as a turnoff, Sully is intrigued.
When Audrey agrees to a date with him, Sully soon learns that his own expiration date will come sooner than he thought. Unfortunately, they are left with a special parting gift that doesn’t make letting go as easy as Audrey would have liked.

Audio Book Publication Year: 2024
An installment in a Series? Yes
Narrator (s): J. Shani Michaels, Jaime Lincoln Smith
When I say I didn't like Audrey! She was a spoiled and inconsiderate. She wants love, and she’s basically self sabotaging herself. Then there is Sully who knew how Audrey operated and her feelings towards men were but tried to give her grace until he couldn't
I think this was a great performance. J. Shani Michaels read this like as if she was Audrey herself. I don't have any complaints about the narration.
