I'm in No Mood for Love

The Writer Friends Series, Book 2

De: Rachel Gibson

Narrado por: Kathleen Early

What is Clare Wingate doing? One minute she's suffering in a pretty-in-pink gown she'll never wear again, and the next thing she knows, it's morning and she has the nastiest hangover of her life.

To make matters worse, she's wearing nothing but a spritz of Escada and lying next to Sebastian Vaughan, her girlhood crush turned sexy, globe-trotting journalist. Somewhere between the toast and the toss of the bouquet, she got herself into a whole lot of trouble.

Clare had the right to go wild - after all, she'd been knocked off her dyed-to-match shoes after finding her own fiancé in a compromising position with the washing machine repairman. Clearly her society wedding is off.

But Sebastian pushed all the wrong buttons - and some of the right ones. Clare is in no mood for love - not even for lust - and wants to forget about Sebastian and his six-pack abs ASAP. But he isn't in the mood to go away, and his kiss is impossible to forget.

Oh What a Pal

Would you listen to I'm in No Mood for Love again? Why?
Yes as author and reader include you into the gang. Our hero, is what some of us would have loved to have experienced growing up. Note: I do use the new 1.25 speed to match the authors intent.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
These are simple feel good stories. Yum on the hero, but not over the top FSOG type of romance. You re listen when you want a break from the fast pace of doing chores.
Author has skills for laugh out loud wit, and I will have to re listen to this story as I could very well have missed it, but her strength comes from creating sweet but admired heroines. Don't mistake sweet for weakness as these stories show.

What about Kathleen Early’s performance did you like?
I have become a huge fan of Ms Early. She has improved so much from Reading Karin slaughter's Will Trent series, (you have to cull the series as unfortunately some of the stories have very graphic violence and are not for me.)
Miss early can interpret this authors work so well that the stories don't have to be overly complicated to be enjoyed. I have re listened to Sex,Lies, and On Line Dating. I really enjoyed the book, 5 star, the 2nd time I listened.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No I did not listen to this in one setting as I have two or three or sometimes four going on at the same time. I have over 150 new listens as I buy more than I can physically get too. (This was a big mistake on my part, you can’t enjoy a Rachel Gibson book, if you have too much going on, I have found big time.)
Since these are feel good listens, you can go back part of the chapter and the story comes back to you. Many people don't like to have more than 1 story going on at same time but, I sometimes like it. It not for everyone, and after re listening to Sex, Lies, and On Line Dating, I realized I did a very big injustice to this author’s work. I will be re listening to all her stories read by Ms Early as she brings Author’s work to vivid life.

Endless Love

This was another amazing book. I couldnt put it down. It was a steaming sex story for sure but well written. The author was a great writer and the narrator was amazing. I recommend this book.

Enjoyable read

Interesting characters drive a story line that keeps you reading late into the night. Well worth your time.

Never give up hope on finding true love!

I have to say this novel was a very good read and I couldn't put it down until the end. I can't wait to start reading others novels from this Arthur.

Love it

I love this book everytime I read it. This one and Not Another Bad Date hold a special place in my heart. 😌

Boring, Formula Romance

It was so predictable. I listed to some of it at 1.25 and then at 1.5. I barely made it through it. Liked the previous book but this was just . . . .

4.5 Stars - Good Read!

Narrated by Kathleen Early
The Writer Friends #2

4.5 Stars - I was happy to see Clare finally get her happily ever after. She had to work through some large emotional moments in this book and I liked that Sebastian was there to help her through it. These two had a wonderful spark between them.

There were some funny parts, and some super sweet parts (which were perfectly suited for a romance writer!) I totally enjoyed this story. Kathleen Early did a great job with narration! I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Clare and Sebastian

I enjoyed their story and the fact they had been good childhood friendship. I also enjoyed the fact that they built their adult relationship from becoming friendship to love
