About this listen
From the author of Playing with Matches, the rollicking tale of a young jewelry shop owner who accidentally leads her Instagram followers to believe that she’s engaged - and then decides to keep up the ruse.
Eliza Roth and her sister, Sophie, co-own a jewelry shop in Brooklyn. One night, after learning of an ex’s engagement, Eliza accidentally posts a photo of herself wearing a diamond ring on that finger to her Instagram account beloved by 100,000 followers. Sales skyrocket, press rolls in, and Eliza learns that her personal life is good for business. So she has a choice: continue the ruse or clear up the misunderstanding. With mounting financial pressure, Eliza sets off to find a fake fiancé.
Fellow entrepreneur Blake seems like the perfect match on paper. And in real life, he shows promise, too. He would be perfect, if only Eliza didn’t feel also drawn to someone else. But Blake doesn’t know Eliza is “engaged”; Sophie asks Eliza for an impossible sum of money; and Eliza’s lies start to spiral out of control. She can either stay engaged online or fall in love in real life.
Written with singular charm and style, Love at First Like is for anyone growing up and settling down in the digital age.

The story itself is a whirlwind of ups and downs and keeps you interested throughout the book. The reading added more emotion and made you more enticed and wanted to know what was going to happen next in the book. Loved every second of it!

Pretty Mean Girl Manipulates and Wins!
I always make an effort to rate a book, but I rarely write reviews.
However, this book was so shockingly offensive to women who are trying to teach young girls/women:
*your self worth should NOT be defined by the man in your life
*you are more than the sum of your face and body
*sexuality is NOT a solution to the hurdles life throws at you.
Love at First Like is essentially a "how to" book on using lies, sex and manipulation to accomplish your goals. The lead character actually plans out a seduction to ensnare a husband; she doesn't love him, she just needs him to achieve her life long dream of being a successful entrepreneur.
This is a book about the mean girl who wins because she's pretty and manipulative. What's worse, she's convinced herself that she's a good person...Come on now, her sister is gay & the man she truly attracted to is a visible minority...that makes her kind, right????
With everything going on today, I was horrified by this book.
