About this listen

Rule number one: Don't fall for jerks. Rule number two: Don't fall for your best friend's brother. Oops. Too late.

I'm Luciana Wright. Everyone calls me Lucky, but when it comes to love, I'm anything but. I have a long history of dating the wrong men. You know the ones I'm talking about. The beautiful, charming guys who are quite literally too good to be true. The ones who are impulsive in love and prefer short flings over long-term relationships. I'm talking about the jerks. The guys who taste so good, but are so very bad.

After going through the most ridiculous breakup in the history of breakups, I thought I'd learned my lesson. I officially put myself into jerk rehab and committed to changing my ways. But, let's be real here, love is never that easy. Especially when an arrogant, charming, he-devil of a sexy alpha man gets involved.

Aussie accent. Tanned skin. Muscular, surfer bod. Gorgeous brown eyes. And the kind of sexy smile that brings women to their knees. Oh, did I mention that he's also my best friend's brother?

Yeah. This story, my story, it's a real doozy you guys.

The day I stopped falling for jerks, I met Oliver Arsen - the biggest jerk of all.

Meh 🫤

I struggled through it, yet to read the second part though. Hopefully (not really) it will get better.
The only bright lights in the book are the lists of places I’ve added to my travel list… so maybe not all bad 😉

Interesting delivery

This book is mostly the main female character Lucky giving a series of podcast episodes. I’ve never heard a novel delivered in this manner and it was awesome. Lucky is at the same time telling her story and reminiscing about about her past failed relationships.

The narrator, Charlotte North did an excellent job portraying Lucky and really expressing the right emotions. I always hate it when narrators just read the story instead of telling the story. Charlotte North was more of a true voice actor then a narrator. Awesome job done Charlotte!😘

I haven’t read the second book yet but I already know that I will be rereading this book in the future.

Confused

While I actually think I enjoyed the story, or maybe I just enjoyed the concept of this story, I was thoroughly confused. The performer did a good job except that she laughed at the weirdest times during the performance. It sort of made the lead seem manic. Maybe that’s the way it was written? I guess I would have to read the book to see it. If she’d laughed when the author stated she giggled or laughed, etc that would have been one thing, but she would make statements that ended in a laugh that didn’t make any sense at all.

Odd and annoying narration

The delivery and story is hard to follow. The flow between Lucky reading, telling, podcasting, recollecting, thinking internally.... no idea where it starts and stops! There is no consistency with the flow, and super confusing.

Certainly different format for sure, the story from the point of view of a podcaster. This woulda be fine but Charlotte North (narrator) does this weird giggle smirk thing and does it so often throughout the read, it quickly became super annoying and hard to get through the entire listen.

STOP the fake giggle already!
