Summary

It's been five years since I found my family. Not my bio-family—my found family of friends. I love them to pieces, but lately they aren’t enough.

I want a baby.

All my friends have family units with cuddly babies, and I want that too. But I turn thirty-five in less than a month. Clock’s ticking, so I’ve got to hustle. I need some baby batter to bake a bun in my oven as soon as possible.

One problem: baby batter comes from men, and I’m really tired of men and their heartbreaker BS.

Manic, though, is different from the other men. A retired sideshow circus performer with piercings all over the place, he’s different from everyone. I really like him, and I think he really likes me, too, but he flat out refuses to get me pregnant.

Is Manic worth giving up my dream of being a kickass mom? Maybe.

The fourth and final book of the award winning Lost In Austin series, All the Rest is a grumpy/sunshine romance with tons of laughs and heart and dirty, dirty smut. It's the last book in the series, but it can be listened to as a standalone.

"With highly engaging dialogue, there was never a dull moment, and I was hooked from the first chapter to the last." ~Readers' Favorite

I have been loving Christina Berry’s “Lost in Austin” series, and I am going to miss the wonderful characters and storylines she created — captivating stories that are meaningful, full of heart and heat, too. “All The Rest” is Sher and Manic’s story, and it is a great addition to the series, and takes place five years later, so we get to see where everyone from the earlier books are in life, relationships going strong and babies galore. Sher, coming upon her 35th birthday, and despite having no man in her life, decides she wants to have a baby, with or without one. Not having luck with men, she considers alternate routes, but is being pushed to another option, so someone who has had his eyes on her, Manic. Manic, the bartender whom Ari befriended in the first book, is a solid guy, comes off grumpy to some, but he hides who he really is, and it was great to get to learn more about him. Sher opens up to him about wanting to have a baby, but he shuts her down immediately, telling her he can’t help her, and as the two get closer, we learn why. Manic’s backstory was heartbreaking, but I loved Sher’s positivity and how she picked him up, how she was the light to his darkness. Berry makes it so easy to relate to her characters, and even fall for them. I loved her mention health representation in the story and how she kept it real. This is another masterfully crafted, multi-layered story that has the perfect balance of drama, angst, humor and witty dialogue to lighten things up, profound emotions and steamy romance. As always, Berry’s writing, plot, and world-building are incredible, as are the complexity of the characters, their growth, and development. Christina Berry, thank you for another amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride. I hope this is not the end of seeing these characters or being in this fabulous world you created.

🎧📚🎧And for the fabulous audiobook listen and production performed in duet by Angelina Rocca and Sean Masters, who did an amazing job voicing the characters. Both embodied their roles completely, grasping every aspect of their character’s personality, with Masters nailing it as Manic, perfectly grumpy with a serious demeanor, and Rocca as Sher, showcasing her sunny demeanor perfectly too. They set the ideal tone for the story, and their expressive performance conveys all the characters’ emotions, making you feel them all. These two are entertaining storytellers, and their captivating performance keeps you hooked to the story.

How do you fall in love when reading a book? Is it the first chapter? Is it the characters? Is it the plot? For me it's all three and Christina Berry had me immediately with this fourth book in her Lost in Austin series. Sher is a bit lost, always the odd person out while all her friends have partners and some having kids. Making a decision, she knows what she wants and is going to make her dreams come true. Manic is the candidate in mind, and he refuses to be the donor. He is in love with Sher, but has his own darkness that prevents him from giving in. And the story truly begins. While the spice is high, I was really intrigued with the plot of these two. Both broken, his grumpiness to her sunshine, real support and love all leading to what is truly important in life. The challenges are faced head on and the result just warmed my heart. Fabulous story!

Angelina Rocca and Sean Masters. That is all that needs to be said to know these two did the story justice. Rocca has a way of getting into the head of her characters and as Sher, she knew exactly what she needed to do to win her love. The emotion is charged and amazing. Masters plays the broken Manic and I felt his pain, each chapter tugging my heart as he was working through his life. The feelings are strong, and I loved that these two narrators pulled me in and let me experience it all with them.

Manic & Sher!
