Statistically Improbable

Dating by Design

De: Jennifer Peel

Narrado por: Marie Mitchell

According to the dating service I work for, Zander, fellow matchmaker and self-proclaimed eternal bachelor, and I are statistically improbable. One would think this would make me avoid him like the plague. But no, for some reason I can’t stop thinking about the arrogant man and his gorgeous green eyes that have a way of seeing right through me.

To make matters more interesting, Zander approaches me with an unusual proposition. He’s in need of a fake girlfriend. My first thought is, absolutely not. But what if this is the solution to my Zander problem? What if this is exactly what I need to work the man out of my system? And maybe, just maybe, in the process I could knock the egomaniac down a few notches. It’s a great plan, until the feelings become all too real. Come to find out, there’s more to Zander than I ever knew. Behind that arrogant exterior hides a man who strings popcorn and helps me pass my statistics class. And when he kisses me, I feel as if I’m a part of him. But the odds are more than probable that dating Zander in real life will only leave me hurt. Yet, I can’t help but think, despite what the software says, we are the perfect match.

USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Peel presents a curl-your-toes romcom that proves against all odds, love will find a way.

I Adore Meg and Zander!!! A Must Listen!!!

Meg is a such a fun character! She's spunky and sweet! And Zander has met his match when he thinks he can get away with asking her to just be a fake girlfriend. Not gonna fly boy! This girl is made for true and lasting, not fake and pretend. Even if they were purported to be "Statistically Improbable" by the matchmaking software, Meg is going to prove it wrong.

There's a lot in the backstory for both of these characters. Loss, heartache, struggles and much more. That has definitely caused them to be cautious in different aspects of their lives. But I loved watching them grow closer together and build their friendship and challenge those differences and come to realize that they are a perfect match. The hard and good and everything in between shapes them even more. I loved it all! The banter, the chemistry, the friends, the wedding planning (Zander's best friend-see book one), the kisses, the swoon factor! And much, much more!

I listened to the audiobook and couldn't get enough of the way Marie Mitchell brought these characters to life! I was pulled in completely and didn't want it to end once I reached the Epilogue. I need more please!!! Luckily I can go back and read it or listen to it again and again and again!!! *Swoon!!!*

You can read this as a standalone but I loved the first book and how those characters are throughout this book. So I would recommend reading them in order, but again, that's just me and my preferences!

Content: A scattering of mild swear words, some mild innuendos, some kissing between the main characters but nothing further.

Happy Listening!!!

Sit back, Relax, and Prepare to Swoon!

Oh wow where do I start! That was one of my most favorite books and audibles!! The narrator did a fantastic job bringing Meg and Zander and the crew to life. I couldn't stop listening! Meg is full of sweetness and sass, and Zander is just so very swoonworthy. Their chemistry is so fun and electric! I love that Meg is the one that isn't scared to put Zander in his place, and I love seeing more sides to Zander! If you have read the first book in the series, you know the Nanettes and what trouble they can cause in their matchmaking. This story is so fun and full of laughter, sweet moments, crying moments, moments that will make you want to scream, swoon worthy moments, and ones that just make you want to smile. One of my favorite things about this book, is you get a peek of Kenadie and Jason from book 1 and their up coming wedding. I just love all of these fun characters and this whole series! Spend the day with Meg, Zander, Kenadie, Jason, and of course the Nanettes, you won't be sorry!

Wonderfully romantic

So clean yet so sexy and a slow beautiful burn. If you like macho with a tender heart and a strong yet traditional woman who needs to get married first… this is for you

You know you love it when the playboy falls💗

Zander is an arrogant, yet dangerously charming eternal bachelor. With his best friends getting married, he needs a new... wing-woman? Friend? Handler? Definitely not love, but when he starts spending time with Meg, we see that he has outkicked his coverage long before he does.
Committed relationships are not his style and Meg is way too smart to try to change him, but taking him down a notch could be fun. And probably necessary for his own good.

Be prepared to both love and hate Zander. It's reasonable to "Awww" and scream "YOU IDIOT" in the same chapter.
TEAM MEG!

This is the second book in the Dating by Design series. It can be read alone, although I highly recommend His Personal Relationship Manager to get a good glimpse of Zander and Kenadie's friendship—and because it's one of my favorite audio books. Just trust me. You'll want it too.

Statistically Improbable is a single POV, closed door, sweet HEA romcom that is both relatable and swoony with a great narrator.
I loved every minute! You can never go wrong with a Jennifer Peel book in any format.🧡

Another home run by Jennifer Peel!

Jennifer Peel is an auto buy author for me, and I love having all her books on audio. I loved Meg and Zander’s love story, and the progression of Zander’s player attitude. The narrator did a great job, this was a fun and romantic journey!
