About this listen

What happens when the right girl and the right guy meet at the wrong time?

One thing that can be said about Quinn Pearson is that she has a knack for doing the wrong thing at the wrong time. Like, the worst time ever. Take her job for instance. One little slip of the tongue using the mother of all swear words while reporting the news, and suddenly she finds herself with over 18 million views on YouTube and her employment in jeopardy. If that wasn’t bad enough, when she meets the man of her dreams, she nearly chokes to death on a powdered sugar donut.

Thankfully for Quinn, the dashing Brit, Henry, finds her near death experience quite charming. But just when Quinn thinks her luck is going to change, she finds out her timing is all wrong again. Henry is off limits. Or is he? Maybe it’s time for Quinn to quit settling for what life hands her. Perhaps it's time for her to become more than just a girl.

Seize the Cupcake and don't settle

I loved Quinn and could relate to her a lot more than I did to her bestie, Holly in Just a Name. Quinn has insecurities that has her accepting the limitations others put on her, especially where her job was concerned, but also in her relationship with Henry and her family. She's accepted as fact that she's stuck with the noon broadcast until the evening anchor retires, instead of fighting for what she wants. As her friend Thomas told her "Don't do that settling thing...Just like that game you used to make me play. You're a settler of Catan."

Oh Henry! What is it with British guys named Henry? Dark hair, blue eyes (my favorite combo), that swoony accent, and knee buckling snogging sessions--that probably would've had me agreeing to keep our relationship secret too. Thankfully Henry comes to his senses before it's too late.

I love the humor Becky Monson puts in her books. I laughed out loud at some of Quinn's inner thoughts, especially about her work nemesis Moriarty. I wonder if she uses the same file for her horns as she does for her claws. LOL Quinn's not the only one with humorous quips. Her friend Thomas is pretty blunt, and my favorite was a comment he made about one of Quinn's favorite suits she wears for work--But that suit! Can you please get something with less shoulder padding? You look like you're about to invade Russia. Vive Napoléon! Even Quinn says Thomas is an acquired taste, but that was hilarious.

I was thrilled when Quinn stood up for herself (I won't spoil it by saying how), and it made the people around her take notice, and reevaluate things. Her job got immensely better and so did her relationships.

I liked the narrator's voice, especially for Quinn. The male narrator sounded kind of "stuffy" for Henry at the beginning but maybe that's how Henry was supposed to come across.

Fun, cute romance

This book was so much fun to listen to. I thought the characters were all pretty believable. I loved Quinn’s character and I was glad when she finally stood up for herself. The book was clean too- there might have been a cuss word or 2 but nothing big.
It was kinda fun to have 2 narrators in this book. Both did a great job- especially Holly since she had a longer portion to narrate.

great narration if a bit confusing

I thought the story was okay. I mean, I could understand Henry's issue to an extent, but at a certain point it just didn't feel right. I liked that quinn was finally able to stand up for herself in pretty much all aspects of her life. I found it odd that the female narrator did the whole book except for the epilogue. she did a great job with all the voices. it was just consisting to me what was the point of having the make narrator just do the epilogue? he did a great job, it would have been nice to hear him do more

Great listen!!

I am so glad I stumbled on to this new (to me) author! Her writing is adult but with a fun YA vibe. The characters are raw, real, and relatable. It a was fun to see Quinn change so much through the book and to get a glimpse in to Henry’s change as well. I love that she stays true to herself and is so kind- but learns to stand up for herself. It’s a great message that many women can relate to and well hopefully do themselves! I will be reading or listening to more from this author!
The narrators were PERFECT! Absolutely loved every minute of listening to this.
The book was clean... but with some references to things. I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.

Narrated by Holly Warren, who’s British accent leaves MUCH to be desired.

I was distracted by the narration. The entire book.
The make protagonist is British. The narrator’s attempt at his accent was awful.
I nearly returned the book at first blush.
The story was ok. Quinn was very much NOT the character portrayed in the first book. The salads, weight conversations, her inability to complete anything, do anything without first consulting someone.
The ending was the best part (bad accent aside) and it was hurried, rushed & left me feeling like they just wanted to check the box.
