Critic Reviews

"Lori Foster delivers the goods." ( Publishers Weekly)
"You can pick up any Lori Foster book and you know you're in for a good time." ( New York Times best-selling author Linda Howard)

Funny and sweet!

When I first started this book, I thought it was going to be a silly piece of fluff and a waste of my money, but it turned out to be charming and funny and sweet. The characters were endearing and a little quirky; even the pets had personality. It put me in mind of early Janet Evanovich stuff, back when she was still funny. Very lightweight but still a good read, definitely not a wasted credit.

Overall Good

I liked this book for the money. It was cute and fun to listen to. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes romance books.

Main character is a *B*

Can I just say I made it to an hour and 45 mins left before the main character turned into such a raging B I had to stop the story. A character can be humanized without alienating an audience and unfortunately the author missed the mark this time. Some faults can be charming and add a level of depth that draw someone in, but a cruel woman to such a kind main man character was just unnecessary and a huge let down and had me hoping the happy ending was the man moving on to someone else entirely. Don’t waste your time with this one.

It's a yes for me...

This is a light listen. It's perfect for a relaxing day when you're in the mood for a sweet love story with a good dose of humor. Animal lovers will also enjoy listening about the pets the heroine has because they each have quite peculiar personalities. I enjoyed it a lot and for the price it should definitely be a yes for you too. I liked the narrator as well.

No thanks

The narrator didn't do any voices, and had a very flat, slow delivery. There were also weird pauses within the sentences that I couldn't get used to. This story might be ok, but with this performance, I had to stop within the first 2 hours and return it.

subpar story

I didn't like the storyline and by chapter 2, I was done with this book. I couldn't even finish it.

Was there a plot? I must have missed it...

The book had potential... A few cute scenes in the beginning had me not wanting to put it down. But there was literally NO plot, no character development, almost no characters exceot the two main characters and a few side line ones you hear about but dont really meet. Less than 10 characters in the entire book... There are 8 chapters (That's it. . shudder.) "Plot" (if you can call it that) is basically, heroine chases cheating fianceé's tryst out of her house to next door neighbor's house with a rake. Next door neighbor is a builder whose had his eye on her. he gives her time then comes over one night with wine and a smile. heroine is slightly quirky. He basically manipulates her and moves in with her over night. He cooks for her, she rescues dogs. He holds out on sex wanting a declaration of love but gives in after a few weeks. The biggest event in the book is HONESTLY his family piling into the house to meet her and her having a short chat with his mom. Then her ex-fiancee shows up in what I guess is the climax ??? and says he'll take her back. She's not interested and then supposedly lives happily ever after with her new hunk. The conversations are cute between the two. but realize, the majority of the book is them talking to eachother with no plot or events. Hopefully I saved someone a few hours. Honestly, this is the laziest writing job I've EVER encountered. my 4 year old tells better stories. that said, the narrator was on-point. great voice, good acting. But unfortunately, there's only so much a narrator can do with what they're given.

Such a fun read!

If you’re looking for a quick, fun read, this is it! Humorous and lighthearted, the characters in this book tug at your romantic heartstrings. Absolutely loved it!

Wonderful listen

I loved this book. I was sweet and refreshing. Great was to spend my commute.

Go For What You Want

I absolutely loved the back and forth between Gavin and Sarah. Their sexual tension/build up made for a wonderful explosion once they decided to be with one another. I also loved the fact that Sarah was an animal lover, and Gavin accepted her during all of her "reject" rescues. The ending is funny but perfect.
