Publisher's summary

It’s true. I’m not what most people would call “pretty” and, well, high school was rough. Fast forward ten years and life is good....

Until a bunch of jerks think it’s hilarious to put the “butterface” (AKA me) on a wedding Kiss Cam with the hottest guy ever - and that old humiliation hits hard.

I recognize him immediately. The hottest cop in Waterbury and totally out of my league.

But then he kisses me.

And we totally forget the room, the crowd, everything.

Then he tells everyone we’ve been dating for months.

Soon everything starts to feel too real, from adorable fights over “necessary” tools to fix my broken porch to surviving a free-for-all dinner with his six siblings to picking up where our last kiss left off.

But there’s something he’s not telling me about why he’s really hanging around, and I’m pretty sure it has to do with my mob-connected brothers.

Because this is not a make-over story, and Cinderella is only a fairy tale....

Just plain fun!

This was fantastic! I didn't see the more serious side of it until I was neck deep in it. Butterface opens up your mind and makes you think of things you said in passing and perhaps not meant. It's just deeper than I expected and I loved it! Don't let that fool you though... it was still a riot! It totally tugged at my heart strings and made me think more about how we view ourselves.

Fantastic dual narration with Brian Pallino and Savannah Peachwood. Peachwood has this fun and light voice and you could feel her words and how impactful some statements were. Pallino had this deep tenor that I loved!

just ok

I really had no expectations for this one, I was just looking for something light and fun, it fulfilled that I just wasn't excited about the storyline as much, I wanted more of a laugh. The one take away is love is blind, beauty is found within which translates to a persons outer beauty.

A wonderful Surprise!!

I LOVED THIS STORY! I had been in a drought, looking for a good, funny, meaningful story and this book did not disappoint. It is definitely on my list of favorites and the narrations were amazing!

it's a good book- steamy, weird tho,...

I wanted this chick to get so much meaner with the guy! seriously! she needed a little more sass after everything,... but just my opinion, take it with a grain of salt. the narration was amazing and the steamy scenes were perfectly steamy :)

spicy romance

I enjoyed listening to this book I liked that the author explained the title and that the characters were fairly strong and independent both male and female. I just felt like it was a little random when it came to the sex stuff like I kind of like how the author worked it in but on the other hand it would be in the middle of an important thought they would just go off on sex spots and I get that people are like that in real life but it's kind of a little annoying but it makes the book not predictable so I guess for other people it would be really awesome for me it was just a little bit of annoying.

Floundered in the middle

A great premise that didn't reach it's full potential. I always enjoy reading stories with unconventional heroes and/or heroines, so it was a welcome change to read about a heroine who doesn't fit into society's definition of "beauty." This book had lots of great moments and kept me engaged until about the midway point. The pacing slowed and didn't really ever pick back up. I enjoyed the book, but I felt like I could have enjoyed it more had it not floundered in the middle. It seems like the hero and heroine were stuck in the same place for too long before another development occurred in the story/their relationship. Overall, I enjoyed this book and will listen to more from the author.

Amazing!

Great story with great narration! They bring the characters personalities to life! Its a fun listen!

Such a Fun story

A sweet and Sassy romance with a few really cute twists. I love the characters, Gina and Ford are so much fun together and even when they were fighting I just wanted them to be together because they worked. Love this story.

Lovely

I loved this book it was beautifully wrote and the story was great I couldn't stop listening to it.

cute & funny

A rom/com story, funny at times and a few well timed twists. I loved Gina and Ford, they are so different but fun together, they worked. Enjoyed listening to both narrators as they portrayed the many characters with all their quirks and flaws.
