Snagging a date?

Not a problem.

But one that meets my special requirements?

As the premier best-man-for hire in all of Manhattan, I promise discretion, so when I need a plus one for a couple of I dos, she needs to be A-Plus in reliability. Fortunately, I have a brilliant solution in asking my best friend's sister to go on my arm. Truly is my good friend, too, and I trust her completely.

Just look how discreet she's been about the time we spent the night together. But, it was only once, and it was months ago. We've been the souls of restraint ever since. I'm sure we can make it through these weddings without banging each other in the limo. Probably.

Plus, she needs my help with a business proposal.

A little I'll-scratch-your-back-you-scratch-mine doesn't have to lead to the bedroom, right?

Good thing we know our way around the friend zone. The treacherous, torturous all-too-easy to slide out of friend zone.

*This special production also includes a behind-the-scenes conversation with Andi Arndt and Shane East as well as a blooper reel!*

I always have a hard time finding something different to say when reviewing a Lauren Blakely book. Its hard for me because even though every story is different, the things that I love most are all part of Lauren's writing style and that stays the same throughout each book. As always I love the low drama story line, the characters and the maturity of all of them. She seriously knows how to write a great story while entwining characters from many other books and still making each book stand alone. Listening to all of the characters come together was awesome and made me want to go back and re-listen to their books again.

I love a friends to lovers story and this one has a bonus best friend sister too. The chemistry was so real between Truly & Jason. I love that they have great banter and are both so much alike that they get each other. I could relate to these two more than most of LB's characters because career come first for them. It was refreshing to be able to see a couple work without giving up their passion for their careers.

The best things about this book for me was getting all the friends in one book. I missed so many of these couples over the years and having them all together again felt like visiting family. They all connect on such a great friendship level. This made the book so much fun and was a reminder about how witty and playful all of these characters were. Lauren Blakely did a fantastic job at bringing them all together and making it feel so natural.

The narration was incredible. Every character had their own voice and all the narrators were amazing!!!!!! Lauren always takes such care of us Audiobook fans. This book felt like it was written for Audio, no he said she said. I always say you can tell an Author who loves audiobooks because they are the best at casting, and Lauren Blakely is amazing at it!!!

BEST Narration EVER

this has been my favorite listen to date. I have been listening to audiobooks for several years and because of the AMAZING narration this story was brought to life

Amazing narrations!

Bravo! This book has a wonderful story filled with a great set of characters! I love the banter between everyone & having so many wonderful voices giving these characters their personalities was simply perfection!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE

Love the story!
Love the author!
Love ALL the narrators!
This is truly a treat that I hope happens again.

Fantastic multi-cast audiobook!

My new obsession is Lauren Blakely's multi-cast audiobooks. She has absolutely taken the experience to the next level and I love it so much. Instant Gratification was perfect for this treatment- so many great side characters. This book was so funny, and sexy and just all around fantastic. Both Truly and Jason were enjoyable to get to know- their journey felt so authentic. There was a big focus on their careers and goals and I appreciated the details about their jobs and paths. The flirting between these two was perfect- so on point and perfect. The witty banter was exceptional. So much fun!

Delightful

What a fabulous production! I so enjoyed every aspect of this story! All of the narrators totally rocked and I am spoiled by having every person have their own narrator. I also love how we hear from past characters and see how and what everyone is doing now. Truly and Jason’s story is fun, sexy, loving, and shows how people can be so supportive and hard work does pay off! Kudos to Lauren Blakely for putting together this fantabulous production 😍

I love it 😍

it's a great sexy audio all the cast was perfect
Andi and Shane east chapeau bas i love them
and I would like to go on a safari too Shane 😋
thx for the lovely story lauren

I wanna be friends with these people!

Jason & Truly may be my favorite couple so far! Jason’s character, accent & advice just do it for me! It’s fun catching up with previous characters & a glimpse of future ones. Lauren Blakely has mastered the rom-com genre!!!

Narration spoiled me for dual narrator books.

The books was really really good, but the narration was AMAZING. Having the narrators all in one room just like a play was the best. It really has spoiled me for other multiple narrator books. You never get taken out of a scene because of the change in the voices. I wish they would do this morning often, but I am sure it is more expensive and difficult.

All Star!

Five star book with an all star cast! Thoroughly enjoyable experience. It’s so much fun to listen to an extraordinarily talented cast of many! It doesn’t hurt when you have a good storyline! Ms. Blakely draws you in and keeps you right there, making you want more and of course she delivers!!!!
