About this listen

I'm Serafina Lopez, and I'm an astrologer. No, not the airy-fairy type who wears long flowy skirts and enormous hoop earrings—you know, unless I want to. I'm an uber-serious businesswoman. My popular lifestyle app, "Live for you Star Sign," is getting so big, I've just been asked to be a guest on New York's most-watched morning show. This TV segment is going to launch my career into the stratosphere.

Imagine my surprise when I show up on set to find out that I'm not the only guest. They've also invited astrophysicist Ben Williams from NASA. (I'm not sure if you know this, but astrologers and rocket scientists aren't exactly sympatico.) It's 100% hate at first sight (with maybe a tiny dose of lust thrown in.) Too bad he's a total jerk who slings insults at my career. Our explosive chemistry sets records for the network's viewing audience, which means we're asked to host a weekly segment . . . together.

Unable to turn down the career opportunity of a lifetime, I agree to work with Dr. Grumpy McGorgeous Nerd Pants. Just when I think it can't get any worse, the network sends us to Florida for a conference. When we arrive, we find out we'll be stuck sharing the same hotel room. And that's when it happens. Somewhere in the haze of hating him, I wind up wanting him. But there's no way I can fall for someone who doesn't respect my beliefs.

It was ok

The book started out ok and then I just couldn’t find any way to relate to the female lead character. She was so self absorbed and just pushed herself on to the male. I was good with her saying she was a flirt but just no she was not the best person. I couldn’t finish the book she was too much for me.

Annoying

The bickering back and forth was so annoying I couldn’t stand to listen past the 4th chapter. Hard pass on this book.

It was closed door

It was really funny and silly and I found myself laughing out loud quite a few times. The narrators were good. Sometimes Alexander Cendese’s acting was infomercial-ish and his voices for women were not cute, but he added a lot of character to Ben. Avery Reid was absolutely great as Sarafina. She had libra energy.

The love that Ben and Sarafina seemed to feel for each other almost immediately was forced. I think in the same chapter Ben was like “I know nothing about her” and also “omg I’m in love with her”. They actually explained it as being rom com insta love like that was enough explanation.

There was a lot of build up chemistry-wise, but I didn’t even know they had had sex until Sarafina was talking about it during the dark period of the book. So that was disappointing. I typically prefer open door scenes and thought this book would be more steamy based off the description.

Anyway, it was cute and funny.

Cute story

Cute and funny! I love Alexander Cendese narrating female voices in Rom-Coms! He’s a hoot! Half the humor is his interpretation!

75% was great, but last quarter was AWFUL

Most of the story was a lot of fun to listen to — and then things went horribly downhill. The main character, Sera, initially just seemed like an immature airhead, but closer to the end, she turned into a complete jerk. How much of a jerk? She sneaks the guy's cat a bunch of Cheez Wiz without asking whether that's okay, then while he's caring for the sickened cat, she gets angry at him over some misinformation and decides to take it out on him by covering his table in Cheez Wiz so the cat will get even sicker!

The story goes on to follow the classic "the guy is totally at fault so he needs to be told off by everyone until he sees how wrong he was and earns her love back by changing to match her preferences" romance subplot — except that in reality, Serafina was the one repeatedly in the wrong. Every minute from that point onwards just got more and more ludicrously torturous. Ugh.

Cool idea… bad follow through

The narration was good. The premise of the story was unique, but there was the female lead forces things upon the male lead is annoying. Then it is almost from hate to love overnight, and sex is inferred but there is no steaminess in this book if you are expecting it. Could’t finish it. The female lead was just too unlikeable.

Female lead is a bully

I’m a feminist and completely support independent, confident women who demand nothing less than equality professionally. However this main character doesn’t demand equality, she is scheming, backstabbing, and enjoys humiliating an innocent person just for fun. She is not only a bully she is extremely unprofessional and not a team player. She is the absolute opposite of what any successful independent confident woman should strive to be. This character’s behavior is what society complain of when they mention of annoying pain in the neck pushy people, Tried reading this a few times but gave up because of the I couldn’t tolerate the horror anymore. Please stop degrading women by writing them as stupid selfish bullies instead of intelligent decent humans

A big miss

This is just bad all the way through. Female lead is immature , mean spirited, a bully, and there is zero growth in her character. She spends the whole book trying her best to humiliate the male lead, succeeding many times over, and not to spoil anything, but she just continues to be a self centered bully. I had to fast forward many times because her awful behavior was so constant. Other books in the series are great but this is soooooo bad.
