About this audiobook
It’s all fun and games…until someone’s heart is broken.
They’re not kids anymore, but Milo Caro is certain that Colton Mathews will only see her as his best friend’s little sister for the rest of their lives. After all, he made that clear the night before she left for college. But four years later, her brother is getting married and Colt’s the best man—and guess who is the best man’s last-minute date?
Milo vows to use the wedding to either claim the smoldering firefighter’s heart or douse this torch for good. When Max—her best friend from college, who may be carrying a torch of his own—crashes the party, they devise a plan to make Colt see what he’s missing. But after Colt catches on, he decides to cook up his own revenge.
Now it’s personal. Colt and Milo are at war, and between Max’s questionable acting methods, an unfortunate trip to jail, and a maniacal fiancée, what could possibly go right?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Absolutely hilarious!!!! I spent more time having to pause this audiobook bc I was laughing so freakin hard. The witty banter of these characters is off the charts. The deep love they both have is also so endearing. I love a good “I love my older brother’s best friend” story.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Funniest book I’ve ever read! My god I was wheezing ??
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book actually made me laugh out loud. It is kind of long but a cute and funny story.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The antics were adorable at the first half but halfway it were becoming over the top and redundant which started to get me bored i just kept on skipping chapters and fast forwarding while listening. Also, it has quite a good number of chapters but the plot revolves around approximately 2-3 days in the entirety of the story.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was like listening to a hilarious screenplay rather than reading a romance novel
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Consequences of Loving Colton Story starts out when Milo and Colton are friends because of her brother is his best friend. She has a crush on him and he does kiss her one time in the pool.Years later she's graduating from college and they are attending her brother Jason's wedding-in their back yard so everybody has jobs to do to make this a happy occasion.Milo has a boyfirned that is gay but he doesn't come acorss that way. There's always been a big competition between Colton and Milo.Like all the chaos with everybody and how things happen from events in the past. Love how they ousted the bride.Alternating chapters from the main characters so you get to hear each of their side at the same time.Anything that could go wrong did and then a whole bunch more-so comical at times.free from IHG membership
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I received a copy in exchange for honest review, this does not influence my review in any shape or form.
So if you've been following me for a while or if you're friends with me on Goodreads then you know I absolutely LOVE stories about falling for your best friend's brother. I love reading them. I actually saw The Consequence of Loving Colton on a Waiting for Wednesday post during a blog hop. I immediately requested it on Netgalley and awaited to see if I would get approved...a couple days later my approval came in and so I sat down to read The Consequence of Loving Colton. I was expecting a light hearted love story but what I got was....tears from laughing so much, my stomach hurting from laughing so much, and having to catch my breath because I was laughing. So yeah, I laughed A LOT reading The Consequence of Loving Colton.
Our story involves Milo (our main character) who has been in love with her brother Jason's best friend Colton since she could remember. The thing is, when she was 16 she tried to kiss him but he rejected her. Now she does everything she can to avoid him, without really avoiding him if that makes sense. Anyway, she's home for the weekend because Jason is getting married to the Devil not literally guys but she's not the kind of girl you'd want to be your sister-in-law. One thing leads to another and Colton and Milo kiss only this time he's apologizing saying it should've never happened. Of course, Milo is crushed! I mean who wouldn't be when your crush straight out tells you that he's sorry for kissing you? She ends up making a huge lie saying she's never cheated on someone and calls her best friend Max hoping he'd go along with the story. He does but he also puts his own spin to the story. And let the crazy weekend begin!
Like I mentioned some of the things that occurred throughout the story were funny. But if you take away all the funny stuff there wasn't much of a story. Just a snowball events that kept occurring. There was some parts I love for instance I really enjoyed Max's character. Seriously, I need and want a friend like Max in my life. He was extremely funny, easy to like and I totally would've forgotten about Colton if Max was hitting on me just sayin'. Anyway, the other characters were okay for me but really nothing was grabbing my attention about them. Like I mentioned before, all the events that happened throughout the book were funny but some rubbed me the wrong way.
For instance, Max being sexually assaulted by a bunch of women and no one taking him seriously. They just joke about it tell him to man up etc. That really rubbed me the wrong way. And then the horny grandma also sexually assaulting the brother...like was that necessary. It gave me the creeps.I pretty much skipped over those parts.
I was expecting something totally different from what I got. Yes, you will laugh when you read this but other than that the story is totally ridiculous and over the top and not believable. The only reason why this is getting three stars is because Max was amazing and I will probably be picking up his book.
Original Review can be found at Tina, The Bookworm - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5One of the funniest books I read in, well, ever! What a character Max is, made the whole book. The wonderful best friends sister romance at the heart of the story is wonderful as Colton and Milo find their way to each other. The antics are little out there sometimes but remembering that it is suppose to be funny, not deep drama, makes this one you will want to read. I highly recommend it!!
