About this listen

Gabby Mays wishes she had her future figured out, like her gorgeous roommate Anna-Marie, who has just landed a role on the hit soap opera Passion Medical. Gabby would give anything to find a career she’s half as passionate about as Anna-Marie is about acting - and a love life that isn’t comprised of nights with a party-sized bag of Doritos and her Netflix account.

When Gabby becomes a recurring extra on Passion Medical, she finds a job she’s surprisingly great at. Even better, her old crush and ex-boss - the sexy, sweet Will Bowen - is writing the scripts, allowing Gabby lots of quality flirting time at the craft services table.

But between feuding divas, fake Emmys, and Gabby’s growing concern that Will might not see her as anything more than a friend, her life on set is quickly becoming a drama worthy of the soaps.

The Extra is a stand-alone romance novel with PG-13 rated content, no cliffhanger, and a swoon-worthy happily-ever-after.

honest to god, i laughed out loud

Such a good story! I thought the entire book was incredibly charming, fun dialogue and relatable characters. I truly did laugh out loud multiple times, literally put my face in my hand at the cringe-worthy antics,and enjoyed every second of this story. The narrator does a lovely job, as well.

Tried to love it

I tried to love this story even though there was character development in a story line to follow I just couldn’t fall in love and getting attached to the main characters. And in the end the love story wasn’t compelling enough to make me feel like it was worth it. There was no great pay off

Well written

Good story! Lots of realism, but funny moments too. Hero and heroine on journey to finding themselves and love. Well narrated.

Started off really great!

This book is super funny, but I felt like it declined in quality towards the end. Still a good read, just wish it was more consistent.

Fun book! Easy listen!

I enjoyed this lighthearted book. It was an easy listen as I drove around town for work. The characters are endearing and the reader kept my attention.

SOOOO CUUTTEE

I, like many people who read romance, am a hopeless, romantic, and I absolutely love this story. It started off a little bit toxic but like the ending was everything my little romance reader heart needed. The main character is super easy to identify with, and I absolutely love the inner monologue. I like that this book is a little bit more real than some of the other romance books that I read I think the main character is just a lot more realistic in her kind of disillusionment with life.

Note to international readers:

Swedish Fish are sweets. I am sparing you a very confusing olfactory moment.

I both like and dislike the emotional depth. I cried about her one family member's mental health and the main character's negative self-talk is very realistic. But the constant introspection was a bit too much; I get that she is supposed to be insecure, but it stopped adding to the story at some point and just increased the reading time unnecessarily. I personally prefer the show don't tell rule when it comes to emotions and there was too much telling about the expressions in people's eyes.

Overall, I loved the realness of the main character and the love interest and I wanted to finish the story because I did end up caring. A good read for a longer audible plus freebie.
