Resumen del Editor

Kristen Collins is cursed. It's the only explanation for this recent run of catastrophes. She's lost her brand-new car and a winning lottery ticket, and her ex-boyfriend just drove off with all her possessions. She's even lost the empty office that's been her lunchtime sanctuary. Plus, the new hire who's taken it over is precisely the kind of impending heartache she knows to avoid, from his intense gaze to that irresistible crooked smile.

Developer Aiden Scott plans to stay at the Denver architecture firm just long enough to prime it for takeover. A job like his can't get personal. Yet from the moment he collides with Kristen, he's smitten. He wants to save the stunning interior designer from every crazy scenario she winds up in. But who's going to save him when his business agenda shatters Kristen's trust?

Turns out, love's a lot like luck. You don't know just how good you have it until you stand to lose it all.

Not enough there, there

I kept hoping this would finally grab my attention. It was okay, and I liked the characters and the narration was fine, but there was something missing. It just wasn’t really enough to make me get to a point where I was really involved with the story. I skipped over the sex scenes for the most part as they really felt superfluous to the plot and obligatory to the genre. My score, because I did finish and it wasn’t a bad listen, was 3.5

Sweet

Worth a listen. An enjoyable easy to listen to sweet story that is well narrated with loveable characters.

Unlucky in Love

I liked this story. It was like a fairy tale love story, I could not put it down ,so romantic .I will recommend this

audible book to friends and also your Story narrator was fantastic.

No Luck Needed Here

Where does Unlucky in Love rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It lists pretty high in the sweet and full of depth category. I began rooting for Kristen from her first moment of heartbreak which started way too young. This book scored a lot of bittersweet points..

What did you like best about this story?

I liked Aiden's reaction to Kristen the first time he saw her. I could actually see his struggle and I loved every moment. I rewound it a few times.

Have you listened to any of Dara Rosenberg’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to Dara Rosenberg before.Her voice is very distinctive because it is slightly raspy and full of expression. Her delivery of wit and sarcasm is outstanding. Dara is one of my top five favorite narrators. Her performance was stellar. She only gets better with each new one I hear.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

As much as I hate conflict I find that those are the moments when I am moved the most because I really just want the characters to be happy. I understood Kristen's trust issues due to her past relationships so I was surprised with Aiden's intuitiveness that he wouldn't take special care not to give her any reason to doubt his affection. Since his emotions were more transparent in this story it hurt more to see what pain his lack of full disclosure caused.

Delivered romance.

Story delivered what you would expect in a romance. Voice production was good. Overall enjoyable.

It's ok

a predictable romance story. i had no clue or else i may have changed my mind.

Almost perfect!

Loved almost every second of this book! I'm not sure if it was performance or storyline but by the end I wasn't adequately convinced that the female protagonist was truly in love with the male protagonist. I think the author want to make her declaration of love to be simple but maybe pronounced fervently with passion. But the performer either didn't know to do it that way or chose not to which ruined the end for me. :(

Sweet Chick Lit

Kristen and Aiden are your typical soul-weary, broken-hearted, will-never-love again individuals, only with the twist that Kristen is amazingly Unlucky. Never fear, the HEA was never in doubt, and the journey there was fun and sweet.

somewhat cheesy romance

Typical romance of boy meets girl and they fall in love right away....only trouble is she has terrible luck. Good thing he believes that you make your own luck and they live happily ever after. The writing needs some improvement too. .loads of cheesy lines like...you are as funny as a comedian, as smart as a surgeon...lol Very original. All joking aside it's nice to have a somewhat easy going romance sometimes without any heavy violence or death=)

Any additional comments?

I struggled with this book. It just was not for me. The storyline didn't keep my attention, and the characters annoyed me.
