Romances are supposed to have happy endings...

Reviewed: 01-30-25

I thoroughly enjoyed the book until the end. That ending completely killed it for me. I understand that cliffhanger endings are done to encourage sales for the next book but it frustrates me in books that are already short, books 1, 2 and 3 should be one book!
And this cliffhanger...I hate it when romances kill off love interests and that's essentially what happens here! Yes, it's possible magic happens in the next book and they get back together despite how the ending infers but ugh. Now I have to pay $13 for a 4 hr book, even shorter because I listen at 1.55x speed...is the rest of the story worth that? If they don't get back together I'll end up very disappointed and irritated I wasted $13. Great book but the end leaves me frustrated and disappointed.

Too short and expensive

I'm enjoying the story but I don't like how it's released. The end of this book isn't the end of the story, it just stops and then to continue the story you have to pay full price for the next segment. This story just isn't worth 3 credits ($45), bit of a bummer. I enjoy Penny Reid books but feel a bit ripped off with how this storyline was done, it should be 1 book, not 3.

Enjoyable

I like other Sally Thorne books and am pleased to say I enjoyed this one as well. A bit slow at first (or I was too distracted to really listen to the story) but picks up and made me lose all track of time. There is a weird sound in the narration that pops up regularly, almost like someone swallowing or that sound of water running through pipes in a wall after a toilet is flushed. I found that distracting and a bit annoying but enjoyed the story enough to ignore it. Aside from that I found the narrator's voice pleasant although there are a few places her voice didn't change enough to clearly mark which character was speaking.

Hilarious!

I laughed so much, I wish it hadn't ended. So good!! I was rather sheltered growing up as well and this book is so true in that regard. Having that background may make the many moments of utter mortification even more hilarious, I physically cringed in sympathetic horror followed with uncontrolled laughter. I loved this book.

Not a fan

I kept wanting to like it (so I kept listening) but I just can't. The main character is not a good guy, makes me mad.

I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to book 2. Hopefully the author's case of writer's block finds a cure soon!
