Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail

De: Ashley Herring Blake

Narrado por: Kristen DiMercurio

An interior designer who is never without the perfect plan learns to renovate her love life without one in this new romantic comedy by Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn’t Care.

For Astrid Parker, failure is unacceptable. Ever since she broke up with her fiancé a year ago, she’s been focused on her career—her friends might say she’s obsessed, but she knows she’s just driven. When Pru Everwood asks her to be the designer for the Everwood Inn’s renovation, which will be featured on a popular HGTV show, Innside America, Astrid is thrilled. Not only will the project distract her from her failed engagement and help her struggling business, but her perpetually displeased mother might finally give her a nod of approval.

However, Astrid never planned on Jordan Everwood, Pru’s granddaughter and the lead carpenter for the renovation, who despises every modern design decision Astrid makes. Jordan is determined to preserve the history of her family’s inn, particularly as the rest of her life is in shambles. When that determination turns into some light sabotage to ruffle Astrid’s perfect little feathers, the showrunners ask them to play up the tension. But somewhere along the way, their dislike for each other evolves into something quite different, and Astrid must decide what success truly means. Is she going to pursue the life that she’s expected to lead or the one that she wants?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Ashley Herring Blake knocks it out of the park again with a rivals-to-lovers story with a big beating heart! She has a knack for writing characters who feel like they could be your friends—flawed women with complex inner lives who leap off the page with personality. I wanted to give Astrid a giant hug; I wanted to give Jordan my number. Bright Falls is a world I want to live in, and I can't wait to return to!"—Alison Cochrun, author of The Charm Offensive

Brava!

This is a must read. The story is fun, romantic and just the right amount of angst. I laughed at moments and shouted advice at others. Astrid and Jordan won my heart.

Loved it

I would definitely recommend this. I enjoyed the narration and the story was so good.

Loooovvveeeddddd

I love these stories about these ladies. This Trilogy has been wonderful so far. This is my fav so far. Astrid and Jorden are so freaking adorable. I highly recommend and of course just like Delilah doesn’t care this has spice and oh is it spicy. A must have in your collection. Not to mention Kristien did a fantastic job narrating this.

Excellent story

I so enjoyed this second book in the series. Building on the characters, digging more deeply into relationships. It’s such a great listen, and the beauty of the place really jumps out of the story. Can’t wait for the next book.

I officially want to live in Bright Falls

Is it possible to be attracted to several fictional characters from the same literary universe? Because sign me up for Delilah Green and now Jordan Everwood. Kristen Dimercurio is fantastic and creating distinct voices and personas for each character, and Ashley Herring Blake creates wonderfully fleshed out, flawed, lovable characters you can really learn to see as real. Loved this and want mooooooore
