No Saint

My Kind of Hero, Book 2

De: Donna Alam

Narrado por: John Lane, Zara Hampton-Brown

He steals hearts left and right. Hers is the first one he wants to keep in this scorching romance from Donna Alam.

Did you hear the one about the wedding planner who took the bride’s place? No? Maybe that’s because it’s never happened before.

Until now.

I’ll do a lot of things to keep my business afloat and a roof over my grandmother’s head. So when the bride from my latest gig says she needs a decoy to fool the press and offers me a hefty bonus, I jump at the chance.

It’s not like she asked me to fake marry the groom, just his best man. Charming, sophisticated, Mr. Sin-in-a-Suit, Fin DeWitt. A man who once kissed away the worst day of my life.

He’s so far out of my league it’s not even funny. And how I wake up next to him—thoroughly honeymooned—I’ll never understand.

Then I spot the wedding certificate, signed in our own names…

The closer we get, the more the lines blur. So much for fake when we discover some knots are impossible to untie.

Worst FMC

I could barely get through the book bc of the FMC being soo annoying and judgmental. She did NOT deserve the MMC. She was so good to her. She didn’t grow at all as a character. Beyond annoying

Swinging

He falls first!
He helps heal her in ways she didn’t even know she needed. He shows his love for her before confessing it, gosh! He’s completely swoon worthy!

Absolutely loved it!

It was okay.

I loved the ending, and I really enjoyed the funny side of the book. It was a decent read for sure. However, the overall book was quite underwhelming.

great book

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

Loved this one😍

This was an excellent audiobook. The story & narration were great. John & Zara were flawless. Finn is definitely my kind of hero 🖤

Fun fake wedding/marriage situation & lots of banter!

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (0-5)
Steam: 🔥🔥🔥☄️ (0-5) I bump up for public-ish places/outdoor spaces.

What I’m Starry-Eyed Over:
🤩 Cute narration with gorgeous accents. I especially loved the short delay in getting John Lane’s narration. I smirked so hard during his first chapter because the sunny, flirty characterization is so great.
🤩 The whole mustache conversation is fantastic. When Fin is thinking, “Hey, Mila, I’ve shaved a seat for you.” LOL!
🤩 Fake is one of my favorites, and I really liked the situation for this one.
🤩 The short amnesia part of the plot is very fun!
🤩 A little shower self-pleasure is quite good in the slow burn. Even, especially?, when it’s interrupted.
🤩 Vacation/temporary fling with a theme of fulfilling fantasies. Yeah, I’m definitely saying the slow burn is very worth it—the steamy scenes are deliciously detailed.
🤩 Fin, the MMC, is a great character—I love how he’s a sunshiny billionaire and also how he’s down bad for this girl.
🤩 I love Mila and Fin together—they banter so well. It’s LOL hilarious.

What I’m Wishing/Dizzy About:
💫 I love the accents of the narrators, but I didn’t love the female narrator’s male voice.
💫 I wish the first interaction (one night stand) would have been extra detailed with the door wide open to make it stand out from the amnesia situation later.
💫 I never quite loved the female MC because of her wishy-washiness maybe.
💫 I think I stopped paying good attention in chapter 26 just because Mila was not coming around.

Read the book.

I don’t normally dislike these narrators but they just didn’t do Donna Alam’s humor any favors with their delivery. The pacing and the way they didn’t differentiate between internal thoughts and spoken words really took a lot away from the story and your understanding of character dynamics. Better to just read it.

I was able to put it down, not memorable

the female narrator was so whiney she made me tense, and I couldn't get past that to hear the story. I was looking forward to this book, I guess billionaires and princes are the popular trop nowadays but, it's hard to take them seriously once you grow up. So, it was hard for me to enjoy the story. I guess I would prefer a story that I can identify with. but, don't think that is ibeing written nowadays.

It was so terrible and the female narrator was so annoying

I dislike the annoying female lead . She sounds so lame and un understanding, how can an almost 30 year old woman be so annoying and insecure . She rejects everything and ungrateful ! The story is every where ! Until the end of the story she was cring ! No character development at all …tomatoes

Meh

Narrators may have diminished the book. Not my favorite from this author. Too much artificial angst and not enough building the attraction or vibe, sadly.
