About this listen

AN INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER!

The hardest thing for a paranormal conspiracy theorist and a web series producer to believe in is finding love in this swoony debut romantic comedy.

Hallie Barrett's life has imploded after she's dumped by her hotshot ex, who also happens to be her coworker and the star of the online series she was producing. Without a new show to present for the company competition, she’ll be out of a job. But inspiration can come from the strangest places . . . like the most handsome guy she’s ever seen passionately discussing Bigfoot on a late-night docuseries.

Hayden Hargrove made a name for himself as a cryptid expert on his hit podcast, and is intrigued by the plucky blue-haired producer who offers him the opportunity to lead his own web show. When the production team sees that Hayden’s solo on-screen presence is bad enough to make a ghost blanch, Hallie jumps on camera too, hitting him (and his cryptids) with a healthy dose of skepticism—and enough chemistry to electrify their show to the top of the competition.

As Hayden and Hallie investigate the unknown, they unearth feelings for each other that shake their beliefs to the core. In their search for Mothman, aliens, and the truth, the most elusive discovery might just be learning to love again.

Critic reviews

"Love and Other Conspiracies was just the most charming read. I smiled from ear to ear the moment I cracked the book open until the very last page. This filled all the empty spaces in my nerdy heart. It cleared my skin and improved my credit rating. Inside me there are two wolves—one loves cryptozoology call-backs and one loves romance, and both are very pleased right now. You know when you get into a really good movie and you start yelling at the screen because you're so invested? I was yelling at this book, waiting for Hayden and Hallie to make a move on each other. I pretty much inhaled the entire book. It just made me so darn happy. I couldn't put it down, and I can't wait to read more of Mallory Marlowe.”—Ruby Dixon, USA Today bestselling author of Ice Planet Barbarians

“Delightfully offbeat and achingly tender, with a refreshing sense of humor that ties together the romantic and the absurd. This debut is a gem, and Mallory Marlowe is a standout new voice in romance.”—Rachel Lynn Solomon, New York Times bestselling author of Business or Pleasure

Love and Other Conspiracies might not convince you that cryptids are real, but it will definitely convince you of Mallory Marlowe’s talent. Fresh, funny, and full of sizzling chemistry—the only conspiracy here is how Mallory managed to write a book that has every single thing I’ve ever wanted in one story.”—Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Fake Mate

Love and the supernatural go hand in hand, and I’m here for it!

I absolutely LOVED this audiobook! It was fun, light-hearted, and humor was spot-on. The main characters were funny and incredibly relatable. Alex Finke is one of my favorite narrators and was a perfect fit for this book. If you’re into the paranormal and conspiracy theories, this is definitely one for you!

Cute, upbeat!

This book is my favorite audiobook of the year! It was easy to listen to and upbeat. I felt like I was listening to a podcast rather than just listening to someone read aloud. The story is cute with a happy ending.

Great overall, but the accent work was rough

The Boston accent was really bad and all other accent work could have been a lot better, but otherwise great

Hilarious and Fun

“Five days away means at least twelve pairs of underwear, in case I s*** myself twice every single day, and then some for options” - Hallie

This book is HILARIOUS! 🤣

Hallie is a spunky blue haired web series producer in search of a new hit. She teams up with Hayden, a conspiracy theorist podcaster, to make a paranormal web series. Their on-screen banter and obvious chemistry make the show a hit! However, with only one slot left for next season, they will have to compete against Hallie’s toxic, verbally abusive, golden boy ex for a chance to get their show renewed.

I have been on a romance kick recently and have been getting a little bored with the similarities between them but this book was a breath of fresh air! It is so unique! From the conspiracy theories to the Ghost Hunter vibes to a mom catching her adult son smoking a doobie, it was so funny and kept me entertained from cover to cover.

I really liked Hallie and I think I a lot of people can relate to what she has gone through. She trusted the wrong person and they took advantage of her, destroying her confidence and self worth. Even after everything she has gone through she is so light-hearted and empathetic. She is able to understand exactly what Hayden needs and strives to be there for him.

Although Hayden is a little quirky, he is the perfect golden retriever MMC I can’t help but fall in love with! Hitting us with lines like “If I hear of you trying to hurt her and, so help me God, if you ever lay a hand on her-“ how could I not swoon!

If you like contemporary romance, rom-coms, Ghost Hunters, criptids, open-door spice or just a really good book, you will LOVE this one!

- Amazing Banter

Excuse me while this book becomes my entire personality! I loved it so much! It was the perfect romcom with two MCs that I loved to pieces with amazing chemistry and banter.

Hallie and Hayden were a match made in Area 51. I couldn’t get enough of their believer and skeptic dynamic. It made for amazing snark and banter. But what I loved the most was that while Hallie didn’t believe in the paranormal she believed in Hayden. Watching his excitement and happiness gave her so much happiness.

And seriously how could I not fall in love with a MMC with tattoos of krakens and not deer, who was just as passionate about Hallie as he was just cryptid and paranormal research.

While this book had many comedic elements, Hayden getting in an argument with the ghost tour guide, it also dealt with some pretty serious topics. Like coping with the death of a loved one after being a caregiver for years and how to regain your self confidence after leaving an incredibly toxic relationship. All of their fears and how they handled them just made me love these characters even more.

I cannot wait to dive into the next book!

Alex Finke did a wonderful job narrating. There weee times I forgot it wasn’t a duet narration!
