Pixels and Paint

Trinket Sisters, Book 1

De: Kristi Ann Hunter

Narrado por: Julie Rogers, Christopher Ragland

For Emma Trinket, life is a delicate balancing act between loving her family and pursuing interests they don’t understand. When the opportunity arises to finally impress them with her job as a computer programmer, she jumps at it, even if it means immersing herself in a world she’s despised since childhood.

Unfortunately, the one man who could crush her prospects is also the best person to help her navigate the lessons she needs to be a success. Artistic expression is both Carter Anderson’s safe space and his livelihood, but his fading inspiration has him worried about his place in life. His encounters with Emma spark a passion to create that he hasn’t felt in years and he isn’t ready to let go of his new muse even if she’s threatening the sanctity of his art world with her digital technologies. As each tries to gain an advantage from the other, Emma and Carter discover they actually might be more compatible than they thought. Will that be enough to unify their opposing missions or will the real differences between pixels and paint tear them apart?

Great Characters

Love the character dynamics and the fact that the characters are relatable. I like the back and forth views of the main characters .

Love it!

I always enjoy your books. This one captivated me the whole book.
Thank you for writing & being You!

Excellent as always

Kristi’s voyage into contemporary fiction is a huge success. I’ve loved all her regency books and this one is on the same level.

She has the best character development. I really enjoyed seeing Emma transform into being uniquely her and finding that she is loved for it. I always find the characters and challenges so relatable.

Finally, I love a book that not only helps me learn about others and myself, but also makes me laugh while keeping me fully engaged. Kristi is a genius at this.

I’m really hoping for a second book featuring Amy and Jason perhaps.

Loved 🧡it!

Loved Emma and Carter and their journey to understanding each other’s world. It’s a fun and clean book.

❤️❤️❤️

While Kristi is known for her regency titles, I loved this first foray into contemporary romcom. It’s long been on my tbr, but I do better with listening than reading and held out for the audiobook.

This was a unique storyline with an interesting premise. While the “A person teaches B person about art” has been done before I think Kristi’s approach and the tension of art in it “original” form vs. virtual form made me think while laughing along the way.

The only drawback for me wasn’t the narrators themselves, but rather than the female and male voices didn’t mesh together well tone wise. Maybe one had better recording environment or the man’s voice to me sounded a bit tinny. While it bothered, it didn’t overshadow the story and this may not be something that bothers most reader.

Entertaining

Very creative story line, kept me interested till the end. Great job!! Looking forward to more!!

As good as her regency books.

Interesting characters. A clever story that finds a connection between a techie and an artist and their world views.
