Book Description
Last time I saw Cade Whitley, I was the curvy, nerdy girl who tutored him in math. He was the popular boy who only saw me as a friend. Now he’s the CEO of the competition.
But that has to be a fluke, right? After all, the only things we have in common are a love for the coffee industry and affection for his matchmaking grandmother.
At least, that’s what I think.
In high school, I had a crush on him. And it was completely unrequited. I don’t want history repeating itself.
Then he kisses me in his office, making my head spin.
This is dangerous. He could break my heart again. My boss could find out.
But Cade has a way of making me forget about everything… except him.

My Thoughts
Kissing the CEO by Layla Hagen—brought to life through an exceptional, highly engaging dual performance by Samantha Brentmoor and Jacob Morgan—is a witty, swoon-worthy, and heart-melting second-chance romance that serves as a fantastic second book in the Whitley Brothers series.
The story follows Meredith, an ambitious, sharp, and confident woman working in the coffee industry who once was the curvy, nerdy high school girl tutoring popular boy Cade Whitley in math. Back then, Meredith held a massive, unrequited crush on Cade, while he only saw her as a trusted friend before family turmoil forced him to change schools, abruptly severing their connection. Years later, their paths cross unexpectedly at a high-stakes trade show where both of their companies are competing. Now a handsome, successful CEO running his own coffee enterprise, Cade is shocked by the brilliant, sassy woman Meredith has become, while Meredith is determined to guard her heart and avoid repeating past heartbreak. Despite working for rival companies, their initial professional friction quickly gives way to fierce competitiveness, playful banter, and an undeniable spark that neither can ignore.
Adding fuel to their reignited connection is Cade's delightfully meddling grandmother, Grandma Jeannie, who remains on her mission to see all of her grandsons settled down. Recognizing the deep chemistry between Cade and Meredith, Grandma Jeannie subtly pulls strings to throw them into each other's orbits. Though Meredith fears the career risks of dating a direct competitor and worries Cade could break her heart again, Cade becomes utterly captivated by her strength and charm, realizing he no longer just wants her in his life, but truly needs her. As their scorching office kisses and late-night conversations turn an old crush into a mature, deep partnership, both must navigate workplace challenges, competitive pressures, and personal insecurities to build a lasting future together.
Samantha Brentmoor and Jacob Morgan bring the audiobook to life with seamless vocal chemistry and emotional depth. Brentmoor brilliantly captures Meredith’s blend of feisty independence, humor, and guarded vulnerability, while Morgan delivers Cade’s signature Whitley charm, smooth confidence, and fierce protective warmth. Complete with lively family dynamics, irresistible banter, and plenty of sweet, high-heat moments, Kissing the CEO is an un-put-downable, feel-good romance that leaves readers eagerly anticipating which Whitley brother Grandma Jeannie will target next.
