Resumen del Editor

The movie star and the dog groomer are one kiss away from the perfect love story. That’s the hiccup in a warm and witty romance by the bestselling author of Roommaid.

The meet-cute award goes to dog groomer Juliet Nolan. It’s one of Hollywood’s biggest nights when she volunteers as a seat filler and winds up next to movie heartthrob Noah freaking Douglas. Tongue-tied and toes curling in her pink Converse, she pretends that she doesn’t have a clue who he is. It’s the only way to keep from swooning.

She’s pretty and unpretentious, loves his dog, and is not a worshipping fan. No way Noah’s giving up on her, even if his affectionate pursuit comes with a bump: Juliet has a pathological fear of kissing and the disappointments that follow. What odds does romance have without that momentous, stupendous, once-in-a-lifetime first smooch? Patient, empathetic, and carrying personal burdens of his own, Noah suggests a remedy: they rehearse.

The lessons begin. The guards come down. But there’s another hitch they weren’t betting on. As for that cue-the-orchestra-and-roll-credits happy ending? It might take more than practice to make it perfect.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Wilson (Roommaid) balances the quirky with the heartfelt in this adorable rom-com.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Wilson’s follow-up to Roommaid is a fun romp with only-in-the-movies-level swoons and genuine laugh-out-loud moments. With a fairly PG rating, this one may also work for teen romance readers.” (Library Journal)

“An emotionally satisfying romance novel by an author with a genuine flair for combining originality with a particularly effective style of narrative storytelling…extraordinary and unreservedly recommended....” (Midwest Book Review)

Love

This book is full of all the things! Hot Movie Star, silly girl, funny puppies and true love! I loved every minute of it!

Sassy and Sweet

it was a cute story. predictable love story with a cute twist. enjoyed it

Lighthearted!

I love this silly lighthearted love story! The steamy doesn’t get to be too much. The characters could be real; not in my world but it’s not impossible to consider. Maybe there’s a part two in the future?

meh

the story started out great! but then the weird issue that was used for conflict felt forced. plus the ending seemed rushed.

My Musings

Another light hearted romantic comedy with endearing characters and a great plot. This one has a lot of emotion, more than is found in this sub genre. Great narrator. Happy reading and listening!

I loved it!

I loved that I could find a clean romance story with a great plot.

Snarky Cinderella with Avery good love story

I love the humor and the snarky smart women in Sariah Wilson’s books. This one doesn’t disappoint. This combined with the unusual phobia that Juliet had to overcome before a relationship could be achieved made this a real page turner that I couldn’t put down. I read first then listened to this Audible version. It did not disappoint and I would highly recommend.

Fun, cute story

Fun, draws you in, clean and romantic. Great narration. Great listen for commuting. Take a listen

Predictable but So Good

I loved this book. It was a nice, easy listen. A little predictable and the main female character was not quite believable in her naïveté but in the end, I didn’t mind that because it was just a great feel-good story.

Delightful!

The Seat Filler was my first read of Sariah Wilson’s work, and I’m confident I’ve found a refreshing voice in the world of contemporary romance. With relatable characters and a creative premise, Wilson’s story about a famous actor and dog groomer doesn’t fall into the typical trap of movie star romances or opposites attract. Marcin’s narration was excellent. I highly recommend The Sear Filler!
