The Extra

The Extra Series, Book 1

De: Megan Walker, Janci Patterson

Narrado por: Lisa Flanagan

Gabby Mays wishes she had her future figured out, like her gorgeous roommate Anna-Marie, who has just landed a role on the hit soap opera Passion Medical. Gabby would give anything to find a career she’s half as passionate about as Anna-Marie is about acting - and a love life that isn’t comprised of nights with a party-sized bag of Doritos and her Netflix account.

When Gabby becomes a recurring extra on Passion Medical, she finds a job she’s surprisingly great at. Even better, her old crush and ex-boss - the sexy, sweet Will Bowen - is writing the scripts, allowing Gabby lots of quality flirting time at the craft services table.

But between feuding divas, fake Emmys, and Gabby’s growing concern that Will might not see her as anything more than a friend, her life on set is quickly becoming a drama worthy of the soaps.

The Extra is a stand-alone romance novel with PG-13 rated content, no cliffhanger, and a swoon-worthy happily-ever-after.

Note to international readers:

Swedish Fish are sweets. I am sparing you a very confusing olfactory moment.

I both like and dislike the emotional depth. I cried about her one family member's mental health and the main character's negative self-talk is very realistic. But the constant introspection was a bit too much; I get that she is supposed to be insecure, but it stopped adding to the story at some point and just increased the reading time unnecessarily. I personally prefer the show don't tell rule when it comes to emotions and there was too much telling about the expressions in people's eyes.

Overall, I loved the realness of the main character and the love interest and I wanted to finish the story because I did end up caring. A good read for a longer audible plus freebie.

Funny storyline and sweet romance

This was a fun audio book! Sweet romance story with a fun approach. The main character's wallowing was minimal. I don't watch soaps, but enjoyed added "drama" created by the actors.

Cute!

I’ve had this one sitting in my library for a while now, but just keep passing it by thinking I won’t love it when in fact, I did love it. It was a slowish start but after about two chapters in it got super cute.

Wonderful book

Throughly enjoyed this book and the narrator is great. Well worth the listen. Could of finished it in one trip if my car ride was a long one

Cute Clean Romance

I loved this so much. Story about a young lady figuring out zmwho she admitted of all the actual drama of her job and family drama outside. It's the type of book that makes you want a book for each of the characters. 😊
