I enjoy Audible's cast recordings and the narrators for Special Delivery did a terrific job. But sadly, it felt like Blakely phoned in the story. The plot was predictable and a little too sweet, and there was nothing special about the dialog. Meh.

Ugh, I should have guessed from the title that this would have the surprise baby trope in it, but I didn’t.

Sweet Christmas novella. I’ll forgive the instalove, because at least they were together a month before they said they loved each other.

Special Delivery is the fifth book in the Always Satisfied series--and I THINK it's the last one, but don't quote me on that because I could be wrong--about Vaughn Channing and Quinn Summers, the former being Josh Summers's (whose own happily-ever-after takes place in the fourth book, Overnight Service) close friend and business partner as well as a Super Bowl-winning tight end turned sports agent, and the latter being Josh's younger sister and the owner of her event planning business. Josh unwittingly plays matchmaker when he pairs Vaughn and Quinn together to plan their new agency's first-ever Christmas party. Both Vaughn and Quinn have rules in place when it comes to relationships, but 'tis the season to be jolly, which is the perfect time for fa-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-ing in love...
There was a whole lot of adoration coming from my end while reading this novella. I adored Vaughn and Quinn and I adored how angst-free this was, which may sound strange considering I make no secret of loving angst in my romance novels. However, this is a holiday read, and well, Christmas is, indeed, the time to be joyous, and merry, and bright, and this story certainly didn't need any angst nor drama to make it a better read. Another thing I adored was the role Josh played, and how it wasn't about him being the proverbial Scrooge or Grinch in the blossoming affections between his friend and his sister. This was a really fast-paced read, and naturally, it ends quite happily. You also don't need to read any of the previous books in the Always Satisfied series, but they're all good reads, so consider it a pre-Christmas treat to go read all of them anyway. I'm giving Special Delivery five stars. ♥

Special Delivery
This is a fun, entertaining, spicy, quick read. Vaughn and Quinn are interesting, intriguing, relatable, entertaining characters. I enjoyed their romance and the path it took to get to their HEA. These two are fun to spend time with. I enjoyed the family aspects of the story. The secondary characters added to the fabric of the story and my enjoyment. The story is easy to read and get into.
I enjoyed the audio version of this story and the narrators.

A cute little novella from Lauren Blakely that has me already craving colder weather and holidays!
Vaughn and Quinn are perfect, and this is a cute little prequel to a fun series!
No true angst, lots of smiles and some spicy scenes.
A solid short, quick read 4 stars.

2 stars for the story and a star for the awesome blooper reel at the end of the audiobook. That shit was funny.
