In a New York Minute

De: Kate Spencer

Narrado por: Amanda Dolan, Neil Hellegers

A clever, tender, and romantic "Nora Ephron romp for the modern ages" (Christina Lauren) for readers of Jasmine Guillory, Abby Jimenez, and Sophie Cousens, this laugh-out-loud debut is a perceptive reminder that fate can have a sense of humor, and that love can happen . . . In a New York Minute.

Franny Doyle is having the worst day. She’s been laid off from her (admittedly mediocre) job, the subway doors ripped her favorite silk dress to ruins, and now she’s flashed her unmentionables to half of lower Manhattan. On the plus side, a dashing stranger came to her rescue with his (Gucci!) suit jacket. On the not-so-plus side, he can’t get away from her fast enough.

Worse yet? Someone posted their (entirely not) meet-cute online. Suddenly Franny and her knight-in-couture, Hayes Montgomery III, are the newest social media sensation, and all of New York is shipping #SubwayQTs.

Only Franny and Hayes couldn’t be a more disastrous match. She’s fanciful, talkative, and creative. He’s serious, shy, and all about numbers. Luckily, in a city of eight million people, they never have to meet again. Yet somehow, Hayes and Franny keep running into each other—and much to their surprise, they enjoy each other’s company. A lot. But when Franny’s whole world is turned upside down (again!), can she find the courage to trust in herself and finally have the life—and love—she’s always wanted?

Great romance

This book really grew on me. I feel like you can hear some of Kate’s personality shining through. Definitely recommend!

Charming story with lovable characters

The plot was a bit predictable, but there were some fun twists that kept it interesting.

A fun tale

This story grew on me. It just kept on getting better (as did the audio performers). A quirky contemporary romance with an excellent feel for NYC.

Eh

The story was cute at first, but it kind of went off the rails towards the end. The narrators were ok but not quite right. The male narrators voice for the female lead was excruciating. The female narrator was shrill and read as if every sentence ended in an exclamation mark. Surprised at all of the glowing reviews.

LOVED IT !!!!

it’s such a good book and it’s very well read, easy to follow and a great story !
