No Vacancy

De: Stephanie Rose

Narrado por: David Vaughn, Rita Fleur

"You're supposed to feel a little sad after vacation ends, but it's not supposed to break your heart."

No Vacancy is a lighthearted and steamy stand-alone romance.

Perpetual good girl Caterina Longo is dependable to a fault. At 33, she’s never called in sick. Never had a one-night stand. Never taken a chance in her entire life. When she walks in on a cheating ex and sees everything wrong with her life, she takes off on a solo vacation, busting out of her comfort zone and into the arms of a guy she never saw coming.

Joe Hunter has no room for distractions. Making his restaurant a success and proving his worth to his family - and himself - is his sole focus. At least it is until a beautiful stranger, in search of fried food and a shoulder, wanders in one night.

Is two weeks of unexpected, life-altering passion all they’re meant to share? What happens when vacation ends and real life takes over?

Fantastic!

I absolutely adore this book! Stephanie Rose is so talented, and her words always draw me in. Caterina and Joe are absolutely perfect together. I loved everything about their relationship. While they had problems they had to face, I liked that I never questioned whether or not they were meant to be. They had ALL the chemistry and brought the feels!

Not only did I love Joe and Caterina, I loved the way Stephanie swept me away on vacation as well. I could picture the setting, and felt like I was right there with them. I loved the setting!

Fans of Stephanie Rose will love the connections to other characters in this book. I always love when I am reading and another character I know and love pops up! This, however, is a complete standalone. You will be completely fine with no knowledge of the other characters mentioned.

The narration for this was really well done. I'm always a bit nervous when new to me narrators are chosen for a book I loved this much in print, but they did really well with it! I would definitely listen to another book with them.

Perseverance and instant attraction

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the narrators. The story was pretty good but not my favorite by this author. Just didn’t click with me.

Their instant attraction turned into a holiday romance. Can they make long distance work. It seems impossible and many obstacles are thrown in the way. But holding on did pay off for their own HEA.

The first half of the book I enjoyed but after the holiday ended I struggled to stay engaged and didn’t feel their struggle, pain. It just disconnected for me. I love the author so I’ll keep reading her books but not my favorite.

Lost interest

I had a hard time reviewing this story. I lost interest half way and I skipped most of the chapters. I used my credit for this one and will return it. The performance was good.

Perfection!

Ms. Rose could write a grocery list and I would read it. Her writing always gives me characters that are written so well that I feel every emotion from these characters as though I've lived through the story. I loved Caterina. She reminded me so much of myself growing up. Sometimes you need to take a chance and do something different to find something amazing. In true Stephanie Rose fashion, she gives us the perfect book boyfriend in Joe. I love all of Ms. Roses books and this is just another to add to that list! Great read!

I loved this story and the narrators did a great job of bringing Joe and Cat to life. They brought so much to the story. I could hear the emotion that Joe and Cat felt and it made me love the story more.

Holy Hotness!

I read this book when it first came out and I loved it! Now, after listening to the audio book, I FREAKING LOVED it! These narrators were absolutely perfect for the story. They brought a great book to life. Hearing Joe's dirty mouth was even better than reading it! :)

Great easy listen

This book was a great listen. Narrators did an excellent job and the dual audio always hits good! I loved Joe and Kat’s story and I can’t wait to dive into the rest!

Loved!

What an awesome audiobook to go along with an awesome story! Absolutely loved it! I highly recommend!!

I loved this beautiful, and captivating romance!

I fell instantly in love with this sweet and sexy romance just like Joe and Caterina fell for each other! Cat leaves early on vacation after an awful encounter with her douchey ex. When she reaches her quaint beach town destination, she stops in a pub for something to eat. Joe can't take his eyes off the sexy woman who walked in his pub. Their connection is instantaneous as the sparks fly, and they spend a hot, passionate night together. This is so uncharacteristic for them both. They are so much alike in that they are consumed by their work, never making time for family, friends, or lovers. But there is something inexplicable that cracks open both their hearts. They can't fight their magnetic pull and desire for each other. They spend 2 passion filled weeks having fun, and exploring everything about each other. But will that insta love and passion survive when the real world comes back into play? I love Joe and Caterina so much! They are so real, and honest and fit so perfectly together. I especially love Joe who is so swoony with how sweet, romantic and dirty he is! Joe's friend, Dominic, was the bomb too, and I definitely hope to find out more about him!
David Vaughn, and Rita Fleur were amazing as Joe and Caterina. Their voices complimented each other perfectly, and I loved their accents. Vaughn's voice smolders as his fiery attraction heats up for Caterina. Fleur is perfect portraying Caterinas self discovery of the passionate side she never knew existed. This was my first time listening to both narrators, and I will definitely look for more of their work!
This was such a beautiful, fun, and captivating romance that warmed my heart and made me completely happy!

Great beach read.

I just read this book toward the end of summer. Sweet, instant love story between Joe and Katarina. Their love story happened fast but they encounter some challenges that they have to work through. Make the story more interesting, I love all the family support with the hint of Grease in the story. Very enjoyable book.

Starts out swoony

This book started out with lots of promise. I loved that Catarina was taking chances with her life and the whole interaction with Joe was very hot. But once they started getting into a longer relationship, the angst over their lives being so far apart became overwhelming and it made me anxious to even continue listening to the book. I needed it resolved more quickly than it was. I get the story and why it was laid out the way it was, but it made me not want to listen anymore.

My favorite part of this book was Joe. He was so in love with Caterina and his draw to her was outright swoony. Oh, and how Cat finally dealt with Trent. Priceless.
