Reseñas de la Crítica

"Crusie has a gift for concocting nutty scenarios and witty one-liners." ( People)
"Cruise's fifth novel is an entertaining, fast-paced romp with a pleasing love story at its heart." ( Booklist)
"Aasne Vigesaa....spices up the story with a brashness that works for this novel filled with odd characters and amusing plots." ( AudioFile)

Light Read

Frothy, light, listen. Not much character development and an unbelievable plot.

Absolutely great and SOOOOO funny

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I always liked Jennifer Cruise's stories but listening to this one narrated by Aasne Vegesaa was exceptionally funny. I laughed out loud so often. Even the sex scenes were hysterical. It was such lighthearted fun!

Everything- this was a very well written book. I couldn't stop listening.
It was light, funny, and a cute story. Gotta love those Dempsey's :)

What other book might you compare Faking It to and why?

Welcome To Temptation (first book in series)

Horrible Narration on a wonderful book

This is one of my favorite feel good books. I have owned it as a paperback, hardback, ebook and now audio book. But the narrator on this one is horrible. I would have preferred that she not try to do different voices rather than what she did. Most of the main characters voices were indistinguishable from her narrator voice 90% of the time & some of her secondary character voice were more like a parody than an actual voice.

I would recommend the book to anyone, it’s a great feel good romantic comedy with lots of sarcasm and laughs, but skip the audiobook

Laugh Out Loud!

I really enjoyed listening to this book. Great character development, plot, and humor. The narrator superbly adjusted her voice for each character.

Great Sequel to Welcome to Temptation!!

Love the characters and the continuation of Davy Dempsey's story. Funny and romantic, plus we get to meet Michael Dempsey! I really enjoyed the story of 2 people working through their past and falling in love with each other, while witty dialogue and movie quotes make you laugh.

Classic Romantic Comedy

This sequel to Welcome to Temptation is a classic romantic comedy with engaging secondary characters and a cute dog. One of those endearing stories that you can enjoy multiple times for years to come.

Jennifer cruise books are always a good time

They are not all sweetness and light but I appreciate her humor and the stories and the relationships of friends, family and lovers. Aasne Vigesaa has a wonderful voice and gives added value to any audio stories i have listened to.

Another Cruisie hit for me!

I love Jennifer’s style of writing and her characters. I enjoy lighthearted books where I can laugh along and immerse myself in the storyline.
