Reimagining Mr. Right

Cat's Paw Cove, Book 6

De: Wynter Daniels

Narrado por: Rebecca Winder

Former ugly duckling Sydney McCoy yearns to break into television. And the hottest guy she works with—TV sports personality, Chip Haggerty—could be her ticket to the airwaves. Too bad that Chip hardly knows Sydney is alive. Worse, she has no clue how to speak Chip’s sports-oriented language.

Up-and-coming real estate agent Levi Barnett is desperate to convince the owner of a hot downtown property to sell so the company Levi works for can redevelop the site into a multi-million-dollar complex. When he literally crashes into a woman he knew in high school who could champion his cause, he’ll do anything to get Sydney’s help. All she wants from him in return is help communicating with her office crush. No problem! But when Levi starts to fall for the beautiful Sydney, he wonders if he’s making the worst mistake of his life by being her would-be Cyrano de Bergerac.

The Cyrano Effect

Reimagining Mr. Right is a pitch-perfect romantic comedy that cleverly uses the Cyrano de Bergerac trope to deliver a heartfelt, charming romance within the whimsical world of Cat's Paw Cove.

Sydney McCoy is a former ugly duckling with big dreams of breaking into television. The only problem? Her ticket might be TV sports personality Chip Haggerty, and she literally doesn't speak his language. Enter Levi Barnett, an ambitious real estate agent who literally crashes into Sydney and needs her help championing his huge downtown development project.

Their deal is simple: Levi will coach Sydney on how to communicate with Chip, and Sydney will champion his cause. This premise sets the stage for hilarious misunderstandings and deep, unintended connection. Watching the clever, charming Levi slowly fall for the beautiful, funny Sydney—all while pretending to guide her toward another man—is wonderfully tense. This story has all the elements you love: a sprinkle of paranormal cozy magic, a high-stakes professional environment, and a hero who realizes his greatest mistake might just be falling for the very woman he’s supposed to be pushing into another man’s arms.

As always, Rebecca Winder is an excellent choice for this series! Winder’s narration is perfectly suited to the Romantic Comedy genre, capably managing the fast-paced, witty dialogue and the internal turmoil of both characters. She handles the distinct personalities—from the professional ambition of Sydney and Levi to the suave personality of the crush, Chip—making the emotional stakes of the Cyrano dilemma truly shine. For fans of the series and this narrator, this audiobook is guaranteed to be a comforting and engaging listen.

Mr. Right or Not?

This is the 6th book in the Cat’s Paw Cove series. In this installment, Sydney McCoy, former high school chubby girl, meets up with high school crush, Levi Barnett. Although she is attracted to Levi, her goal is to snare sports writer, Chip Haggerty, and gain access to his connections in the broadcast TV division of their news station. To do so she needs Levi to translate Chip’s incessant sports-speak. Along the way Sydney discovers that perhaps her idea of Mr. Right might not be what she thought it was.

I have enjoyed the Cat’s Paw Cove books but this was not one of my favorites. Sydney was a bit too callous in her pursuit of Chip. While Cat’s Paw Cove is know for its’ supernatural elements, the power of invisibility that Levi demonstrated was very contrived and seemed “tossed in” to satisfy the supernatural element of the story.

Overall, this was an OK story, just not my cup of tea. Rebecca Winder did a great job with the narration.
