About this listen

For a hopeful and hopeless romantic, it’s love at first sight—with a little twist—in a hilarious short story about finding Mr. Right by the USA Today bestselling author of The Hating Game.

Rosie Whittaker and her sister are up for some Galentine’s pampering at a day spa. Getting locked inside a flotation tank is so Rosie. Enter a firefighter hero determined to pry this luckless pearl out of her high-tech shell. All Rosie has to go on is a dreamy voice and a flirty sense of humor. Remain calm, Rosie. This could be what you’ve been waiting for. Is this the man she’s waited for her whole life?

Sally Thorne’s Rosie and the Dreamboat is part of The Improbable Meet-Cute, irresistibly romantic stories about finding love when and where you least expect it. They can be read or listened to in one sitting. Let’s make a date of it.

I enjoyed this short story, which felt like a section of a larger story. I felt like something was missing, perhaps more character development to get into the story. Overall, it was a good read.

This was my favorite of the series. I can’t resist a funny, clever, sweet & sensitive man. *swoon*!

Nothing is sexier than a funny, witty man.

This story set my claustrophobia off a bit, but the banter between Leo and Rose was perfect

Stressful But Cute

Omgoodness! I think this one might be my favorite of the series. I would love for this story to continue. I wanna know what happens next but am equally satisfied with how it ended. Really great Read.

I like Sally Thorne so I thought I’d give this short a shot. The story is contrived and given the FMC’s past trauma, I highly doubt she’d be so calm in the circumstance described. I just couldn’t get on board with anything about this story.

Disappointed

This is one of my least favorite tropes. Poor handsome man doesn’t get taken seriously at work. Rosie is also very insecure. Not a bad book, just not my favorite kind of characters.

This was cute. Rosie is a hot mess who gets locked in a floatation unit and is rescued by a wonderful firefighter after they fall for each other sight unseen.

The silly flirty banter made this one pretty cute, but I had a hard time telling what was a thought and what was dialogue in the audiobook. This was super-short, but it really worked as a short story.

4 stars

This was cute and quick
