Publisher's Summary

When people-pleasing Chloe learns that her birth mother has unexpectedly had another baby, she doesn't hesitate to become a next-of-kin guardian. But when she fails to pass Child Protective Services' financial evaluation, she is faced with a choice: see her baby sister placed in foster care or participate in CPS' new initiative, TeamUp.

Enter Warren, a surly mechanic's apprentice attempting to get custody of his deaf fifteen-year-old brother after failing CPS' housing evaluation. The two strangers immediately clash but agree to live together until Warren can find housing elsewhere and Chloe can further grow her freelance career.

As their lives intertwine, Chloe and Warren both realize that they're far more similar than they could have imagined. What started as forced begins to feel natural—and far less lonely. Chemistry soon intensifies beyond what either of them can stand, but they must each decide if what burns between them is worth risking their arrangement.

With banter, heart, and steam that will have the listener blushing, Next of Kin is a true underdog story of two young adults redefining what family can look like.

truly such a cute story and audiobook!

I had already read next of kin and it’s now been such a lovely experience on audio! the narrator was perfect for chloe’s character. she spoke so softly and with kindness which I thought perfectly represented chloe. it’s the perfect audiobook for when you’re looking for a sweet story filled with heart and emotions!!

Cute

Next of Kin is low angst for the subject matter. The hero and heroine become roommates to gain guardianship over their siblings. Both have been through the system before and were matched together by CPS. The romance is really slow burn, but I enjoyed the story!
