Decent book...terrible audio

Revisado: 12-15-24

This has to be the worst produced audio book ever! The audio quality is inconsistent throughout, with random points sounding like it was recorded under water. The narrator also incorrectly pronounced many words.

Not my favorite, but worth a listen...

Revisado: 08-23-24

The story is simple and sweet. The MC's aren't super deep nor do they really develop throughout the story, despite what the author tried to convey (calling a character more mature because she has advanced her career and grown out her hair is pretty silly), but it doesn't take away from the story. I appreciate Abby Craden, she is one of the best narrators, but the voices chosen for these MC's didn't feel like the right choices. The writing is solid, as always from Arias. Overall, it's worth a listen.

The narrator seriously takes away from a good story...

Revisado: 08-09-24

The book is good, but definitely would be better to read it instead of slogging through this terrible narration. The narrator can't pronounce the "ng" at the end of words and it is extremely distracting and annoying. "Sinin" instead of singing...ugh it's terrible!!

I really wanted to like it but...

Revisado: 07-25-24

While the story itself is interesting, the execution was underwhelming. As the story progressed, it felt like romance was being forced onto the MC's...the author failed to build any chemistry between the characters romantically, and even the sexual relationship felt off with Janet's perceived confusion over the nature of their sexual relationship. Thank god for Anastasia Whatley because if the narration wasn't good I wouldn't have been able to finish this.

It exceeded my expectations!!

Revisado: 07-20-24

This book was a pleasant surprise for me pretty early in...I really didnt expect this to be very good, but I was hooked after the first couple chapters. The authors choice to have the MC's tell the story to the reader (4th wall breaks and all), topped off with the amazing narration make this an easy book to get lost in.

Good story, strange narration choice...

Revisado: 07-01-24

I loved this book, it was well written and the characters were great. I didn't enjoy the choice to have 2 different narrators. Each narrator on their own is great (Lori Prince is actually amazing, she's my fave!!) but the switch between the 2 was distracting...they have very different voices so it was hard to reconcile the characters as having 2 different voices.

Didn't read like a Lee Winter book

Revisado: 06-28-24

I have read all of Lee Winter's books and usually I love them, but this one was not on the same level as Winter's other books. The rival hotel chain war was semi interesting, but not enough to carry the book...and the romance couldn't carry it eaither. The MC's never really build any chemistry...they just hate each other and are attracted to each other before they take a vacation together and decide to merger their careers and be in love.

Sweet story with some serious themes

Revisado: 06-13-24

Overall a very good book, it was funny and sweet, the characters were good, and the themes of grief and hollywood sexism and homophobia were done well. The narration was my biggest issue, as the reader read very slow...I always listen between x1.3 to x1.5, but for this narrator I had to go up to x2.

Not great...but ok

Revisado: 06-12-24

This story was messy and kind of all over the place. It wasnt a strong story, mostly because the last act of the book was super disjointed and kind of a let down.

A new favorite!

Revisado: 06-01-24

This is not only another great book by Haley Cass, I think it's her best! Her ability to write emotion better than any other sapphic author (at least in my opinion) really shines in this story of best friends to lovers...and Lori Prince is the perfect person to voice all those amazing emotions! I have never finished an audio book and wanted to immediately listen again, but that's how I feel after this one, I will be restarting it as soon as I'm done typing. This is definitely going in my top 3 favorites list!
