Publisher's summary

Ruby Scott is months behind on rent and can't seem to land a steady job. She has one chance to turn things around with a big audition. But instead of getting her big break, she gets sick as a dog and completely bombs it in the most humiliating fashion. All thanks to a mysterious, gorgeous guy who kissed - and then coughed on - her at a party the night before.

Luckily, her best friend might have found the perfect opportunity: a job staying at the lavish penthouse apartment of hotel magnate Bancroft Mills while he's out of town, taking care of his exotic pets. But when the newly evicted Ruby arrives to meet her new employer, it turns out Bane is the same guy who got her sick. Seeing his role in Ruby's dilemma, Bane offers her a permanent job as his live-in pet sitter until she can get back on her feet.

Filled with hilariously awkward encounters and enough sexual tension to heat a New York City block, Shacking Up, from NYT and USA Today best-selling author Helena Hunting, is sure to keep you laughing and swooning all night long.

The characters are in their heads to much

The girl character was a distraction.....she was in her own head to much and I found myself wanting to fast forward and get on with the story!! I definitely liked the chapters when the male lead was first person. I actually cringed when Ruby was the chapter lead.

On another note I wasn't a huge fan of the woman narrator for this story. She spoke to slowly and and was to breathy most of the time!!

Slow to start... but it was good!

I thought the beginning dragged on before we really got to the story... but I thought it was good.

Fun and happy and sad and happy

Such a fun adventure you go on with Ruby! I love her sassy side and her dislike of men with socks on 😊.
I like that there were 2 readers but I think 💭 I may have enjoyed it more if they had read in part through the chapters, rather than changing their voice for the opposite character.
Over all, loved the book. My first time with this author. I may have to try another one.

Really good story but...the female narrator

I really liked this story, and Jacob Morgan is amazing as always at narrating Bane’s character. The female narrator is a little annoying though. She reads very slow and pauses a lot mid sentence when there’s no reason to pause. I tried speeding her voice up but I didn’t like that either so I put it back on normal. If you can get past her, the story is well written and very good.

Wonderful narration

After reading this book I already knew I loved it so when I saw who was narrating it I just knew I had to listen to it. And of course, The narrators did not disappoint. I may just go ahead and buy the rest of the series in audiobook as well.

Love these narrators. Perfect for this book

This was the very first Hunting book I read. It got me hooked to her writing. Very happy to see she found narrators that did her book justice.

Excellent, funny, and very hot

A perfect combination with great characters and some interesting pets, one stole the show. The storyline was great, super sexy, and very hot finally, but worth the wait. Well recommended. Wasn’t sure at first about narration by Rose Dioro, but she grew on me quickly and Jacob Morgan also does a great job.
