We teased this little bit of Loathed Love on @kbr.universe yesterday to prepare for all the Loathed Love countdown celebrations! And we wanted to share more of the excerpt here on Patreon! So without further wait, here's a tiny excerpt from Audrey & Birdie's upcoming romance (we love their banter so much 🥰).

EXCERPT

“How many ridiculous hills have you stood and died on?”

“Zero. They’ve all been absolutely pertinent, though their pertinence is likely to escape you.”

“Absolutely pertinent,” I repeat with the shake of my head—but me saying it isn’t the same. I can’t capture the exact rhythmic cadence of her voice. It’s unique. A smooth, measured pattern with weight on certain words. Passionate inflection here and there.

Her face begins to flame. “Now you’re going to make fun of the way I speak.”

I choke out a noise because I wasn’t. If anything, I was about to compliment her lack of vocal fry—but fuck that.

Oh my gosh I love this! The misunderstanding, his thinking to compliment her, he clearly likes her voice, but then chooses not to because he can't deal with her lolol so excited!!!!

Carrie

I absolutely cannot wait for their book release, I love this teaser! I remember KBR being worried about Audrey’s diction and how some people may not like it but I absolutely adore it so far!

Jenn Rohrbach

The dialogue in this book!!!! 🤌🏽

cloudytaeeee

oh I’m obsessed🤭 think about how many times-from childhood to now-someone has probably made a comment about how audrey speaks. about her being ‘formal, old fashioned, or too prim & proper.’ the last thing she says to him shows that’s what she’s used to. so, the fact that birdie is instantly captivated by her voice and rhythm of speech?? UGH LOVE IT🥹

Jelo

I can so clearly imagine Audrey's voice in the way she speaks. I'm really glad her "proper speech" is kept in her book! I already love her and Birdie's interactions so much ahhhh

Steph

Idk if this can be answered but who is doing the narration for this book? Him talking about her voice made me think of the narrators

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Brooke Bloomingdale is voicing Audrey (she did all the female voices in Silver Sweet, so you can actually go listen to her Audrey voice from that book, which is pretty cool 🩷) and then Liam DiCasimo is voicing Birdie 🕊️

Steph

Awesome! Thank you so much for sharing 🌼
