Chemistry Lessons

By: Jae

Narrated by: Abby Craden

Length: 6 hrs and 30 mins

Publisher's summary

A beautiful friends-to-lovers lesbian romance about taking risks and figuring out that sometimes the perfect person has been right in front of you all along.

Kylie and Regan have been best friends since kindergarten, supporting each other through thick and thin.

While everyone thinks they would be perfect for each other, they insist there's no chemistry between them - and Regan should know since she's a chemistry teacher.

To prove it, they agree to a little chemistry experiment: They'll go on three dates with each other.

So what if their gazes start to linger and accidental touches no longer feel platonic? They chalk it up to the romantic atmosphere - until a friendly good night kiss turns passionate.

Can their friendship go back to the way it was before? Do they even want it to? Or will they risk losing what they have for a chance at love?

Contains mature themes.

Boring

I really wanted to like this story, ironically this book had no chemistry. The whole story of the two lifelong friends needing to be forced into a date was a bit much. I made it to chapter 6 of their first date and I had to stop. Everyone assumed they were dating the story went in circles. Jae didn’t take time to develop why they had chemistry and why they were life long friends. They just were and now they’re being thrown together. Abby Craden narrates every lesbian book and they all are starting to sound like the same character.

So good!

This was a really good book! The storyline was great and the passion was spot on. The narrator was really good too. Only thing I can think of that might have been a bit annoying is the quick breaths she’d take sometimes after saying a line. But 10 out of 10 seriously. Well done all around.

I hated for it to end!

The Jae and Abby Craden experience has the best chemistry compounds! The perfect pair. Loved this book and the characters. This will definitely be in my reread/relisten pile. I just finished it but could honestly restart it now.

Spellbound and amazed

loved this book. I couldn't put it down. Story was literally smoking and provocative.

Jae does it again!

Jae has done it again! I’m from Oregon, so the restaurants might be fictitious….but the area she describes aren’t. I love hearing about areas i know. A beautiful love story! Abby is amazing as usual. The way she narrates brings stories to life.

Great friends to lovers story

Jae is always my favorite. And though I still prefer Eliza and Denny’s story, the characters and how she describes Portland is so accurate and enthralling. She’s great at making unique quirky characters with realistic jobs, personalities and plot lines.

Not Jae's best

Cool characters, but really a novella. Doesn't put much complexity into it. Mentions the 'no chemistry' theme FAR too often in the first half of the book. Honestly feels like something formulaic forced out on a timeline.

Abby Craden

Never get tired of listening to Abby Craden Read these stories. Makes me enjoy them even more. Great story I’ve listen to it more than 3 times already and won’t get tired of it.

Love this book!!!

The very first friends to lovers book that is filled with depth and humor. Ky and Regan have a special place in my heart. Abbey narrated brilliantly as always. Wonderfully done Jae, ♥️

A must

Another good hit from Jae, but talk about a slow realization!! And Abby Craden Always does a GREAT Job, I love her different character voices you can identify them immediately! I felt I was watching a movie!!

fantastic

I read the book when it came out and thought it was fantastic now that the audio book with Abbey Craden has been delivered and listened to I will raise fantastic to sublime, stupendous all round winner.

Jae and Abby do it again.

A beautifully narrated, gentle love story, with likeable engaging characters who clearly come across as really both liking and loving each other. I very much enjoyed reading this book, which I did in almost one sitting.

Another great listen

I've enjoyed alot of abby cradens narrations her voice matches perfectly to the story lines and characters and she's easy to listen too...
This was a great story and plot

The full package

This audiobook as everything. Great story, great narration an all round fantastic book. Can't wait to get into more audiobooks by this author.

Nice and sweet

Another sweet installment by one of my favourite writers. Loved the characters and the writing was on point as always.

Only downsides were the liberal use of the word 'qu**r' and that it was a bit of a short one at only 6.5 hours!

Also a shame that Angela Dawes didn't narrate it! Abby Craden is great and probably my second favourite but Angela has my heart and would have made this a five star performance for me.

So cute!

Loved it as always with Jae's books. And Abby Craden did her usual stellar performance.

I loved the chemistry t-shirts as well they were a cute running gag. And seeing Denny and Eliza and Heather again was wonderful!

Sweet and fun

Of course narration is perfect as always. I kept waiting for the angst to come and thankfully it did not, which makes this book so great to listen to without cringe and eye roll of the usual lesfic with a dramatic middle.

This story also refers to TWO other books by Jae and their characters which I loved.
