About this listen

Rock-hard men in the sheets, delectable cheese in the streets.

Violette Reely walks into her great uncle’s abandoned cheese shop then promptly runs back out. You would too if you discovered a secret basement hiding beneath a trapdoor. One second, there’s nothing down there but cheese wheels in an old chest, the next four naked men are chasing her out the door.

Refusing to give up the million-dollar property to her wild imagination, Violette returns the next day. Despite the place being ransacked, she’s certain she made up those mysterious men who vanished inside a locked store. Then, as the sun sets, cheeses lying on piles of discarded clothing roll across the floor until they poof into the four men from last night.

Men who transform into cheese.

What the hell?

Stoic and domineering, Roq’s the de facto leader keeping everyone in line. Everyone that is but Cam, the charming playboy whose smooth lines melt the hardest rinds. Cheddy is a tall hunk of joy, as easy to like as his namesake. And last, but never forgotten, is Brie. Soft-spoken, with an artistic soul, he’s the sweet wallflower waiting for the right person to scoop him up.

These strange cheese-shifters need Violette’s help. They need someone to protect them when they’re trapped as cheese by day. But, after centuries of being screwed over by their caretakers, they’re wary. No one is slower to trust than Roq who expects betrayal at every corner. Even if Violette agrees to help them sell off their secret cheese stash and find a new place, he cuts her down at every turn keeping her at arm’s length. He’s hiding a secret that could destroy everything he’s fought for across the world.

hilarious

Reading the blurb of this review copy I couldn't believe my eyes: who has ever heard of cheese shifters, how is a relationship with such a creature supposed to work? Well I couldn't wait to find out and I had a blast following the shenanigans of the five protagonists.

A brilliantly fun & Cheesy listen

A fun story to read about Violette and her four cheese shifters, with dramas, secrets, revelations, betrayal, an overbearing mother, twists, spice, love, plenty of humor and heaps of cheese🧀🧀🧀🧀.

Violette is a great character, suffering from OCD and a sneezing quirk, she also has a bad habit of speaking when she's thinking about things. Having inherited her uncle's cheese shop she visits it to discover 4 naked men in the hidden basement; and runs (wouldn't you?). But when she returns to find just cheese on the floor she decides it was her imagination, till the sun sets and they reappear.

She strikes a deal with them, to help them sell off the stock in the shop which they make and help them find somewhere else to live before she sells the shop. The agreement is for three months, but as she spends more time with them Vi starts to wonder if she wouldn't like to not go back to her overbearing mother and make selling cheese with the men her life.

The cheese men are brilliant (you can't help loving them all):
Cheddy is bubbly, earnest and full of life
Cam is smooth, a charming bandit and heart-breaker; but never Violette's
Brie is quiet and awkward, a book lover with a sweet artistic heart
Roc is cold and hard; the grumpy dad to the group, trying to look after and protect them all

As they all grow closer and learn about each other truths are revealed and hearts are broken. Can Vi help the men with the shop and can they help her banish her gremlins?

I loved reading this and enjoyed listening to it just as much, with Genevieve bringing the characters to life.

cheesy,lol

I admit I was a bit sceptical about this audiobook but was looking for something a bit different and this certainly was.

I did laugh out loud and thoroughly enjoyed it, It was well written by someone who had an imagination as weird as my own xxxxxxx
