Joke's On You

A One-Night-Stand Rock Star Romance (Starfish: A Rock Star Romance, Book 3)

By: Lisa Becker

Narrated by: Stella Hunter, Connor Crais

A practical joking rock star. A cash-strapped jewelry designer. Can the prankster get serious enough to turn a one-night stand into lasting love?

After the breakup of Kings Quarters, Oliver Eastland joins a new band on tour where he’ll do much of the same: make music and perpetrate practical jokes on his new bandmates. Despite the perks of band life, he’s eager to make an enduring romantic connection.

Rowan Edwards is an aspiring jewelry designer slogging away her days as an assistant photo editor while enduring the sexual harassment of her lecherous boss. Under a mountain of college debt, she can’t yet afford to leave her job and pursue her artistic dreams.

But when Oliver and Rowan hook up for an epic one-night stand, can Oliver prove he’s no joke and their love is meant to last?

If you love steamy rock stars, witty banter, practical jokes, villains who get their comeuppance, and combustible chemistry rolled into a fast-paced story, scroll up now to buy.

Joke’s On You is the third in the Starfish: A Rock Star Romance series (after Starfish and Dear Future Self). It can be enjoyed as a stand-alone.

Phenomenal Writing & Narration!!

Joke's On You by Lisa Becker, narrated by Stella Hunter and Connor Crais is Book 3 in the Starfish series. Let me tell you...if you haven't given this series a try yet, you are missing out!! All three audiobooks are so good! Author Lisa Becker is the master of romantic comedies; her writing flows so seamlessly that I feel like I'm watching a movie, rather than listening to an audiobook. She has a way of making me feel like I'm right there watching the events unfold, alongside each of the characters (who - btw - feel like BFFs I've known my entire life!!). In addition to the well-written storyline and tasteful sexy scenes, the dialogue is realistic and filled with plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. Describe my overall reading/listening experience in three words: Engaging, Entertaining, and Enjoyable!

The narration performances by Stella Hunter and Connor Crais made listening that much more enjoyable, as they both brought an authentic feel to each of the scenes. I love that the story was told in alternating points-of-view because it allowed me to not only make connections with each of the characters, but it also helped me gain a deeper understanding of where the characters were coming from in terms of their thoughts and actions. Do I prefer listening to audiobooks that have one narrator or multiple? After this performance, I definitely prefer multiple! These two were a great team!

Hands down, the audiobook Joke's On You by Lisa Becker, narrated by Stella Hunter and Connor Crais deserves a rating of 5 out of 5 stars across the board! Even though it's Book 3 in the Starfish series, it can be read as a standalone. However, if you've made it this far in my review, we both know you are going to love the whole series, so instead of listening to it backwards, my recommendation is that you start from the beginning with Book 1. You are going to love it...I pinky promise! :-)

Thank you for reading my review. I hope it was helpful. Happy listening!

Fun, Sweet and Steamy Romance!

This is an irresistibly sweet and funny rom-com. Rowan and Oliver meet one night and have an incredible night of passion, never expecting to see each other again. But they really enjoyed each other and connected in a way they didn't see coming. Rowan is a professional photographer but her passion is to make jewelry. She has a boss who is a real creep but needs this job until she gets her jewelry business off the ground. Oliver is a famous Rockstar and he likes that Rowan doesn't know who he is. He likes how smart and funny she is and that she likes him for who he is. He wants to help her but she wants to be successful on her own. Will they be able to make it work when she discovers who he is and when they are both so stubborn? There is so much to love about this story, from the quick wit and banter, to the lovable quirky characters, to the sizzling passion, and every hilarious, heartwarming, awkward moment in between that will leave you smiling for days.
Connor Crais and Stella Hunter did a great job narrating this hilarious romcom and bringing it to life. Their comedic timing and inflections were spot on as they delivered Becker's witty banter flawlessly. I really enjoyed both their performances and thought they made this hilarious, heartfelt, and sweet & steamy romance even better!

Short and sweet.

This is my first Lisa Becker book. I bought it because I like the narrators, Stella Hunter and Connor Crais. I'm not usually into the musician/band romances, but this was a cute and sweet story with likeable characters. Stella and Connor brought them to life wonderfully.

Fun, sweet and sexy!

As a prankster myself, I love Oliver. He’s so much fun. Oliver has fun while living the crazy life he lives. This is the 3rd book and I can’t get enough of the King’s Quarters band. A one night stand turns into forever with a struggling jewelry designer. Rowen is fun and smart. With the support of Oliver, she stands up for herself at her job and shines. These two are magnificent.

The balance of sweet, sexy and realistic always has me coming back for more of Lisa Becker’s books.

Connor Crais and Stella Hunter are perfection per the norm. They are easily in the top 5 of my favourite narrators.

Sexy & Fun Story

I really enjoyed Joke’s On You by Lisa Becker and the latest book in the Starfish series. I loved Oliver and Rowan together, the witty dialogue/banter and funny moments. Stella Hunter and Connor Crais did a wonderful job narrating and they brought this sexy and fun story to life for me.

Sexy and fun!💜

I really enjoyed this story. I never imagined playing the piano could be so hot. Strong & sexy characters with chemistry that was on fire. Well written and very entertaining. The narration was absolutely perfect. I loved everything about this book. This is a novella book 3 in the Starfish series but can be read as a standalone. I highly recommend this book/series!

Sisters Spotlight 💜

This is a great series! Lisa Becker is awesome!

I really love the Starfish series! It's so good - everything I have read by Lisa Becker is! this one is no different. Oliver and Rowan's relationship is very cute. The only problem is that this story is too short! I wish it could have been longer. Only 3.5 hours... There could be so much more added into the story, but it was nicely wrapped up in the time.

Lisa needs to write another book in this series where Kings Quarters reunites and does another tour, just to bring them all back together and have the love stories of all of the band members go further - they're all in these great relationships now, so tell us how they are all doing! That would be fantastic!

Love is no joke

I love this series and this short book for Oliver and Rowan is perfect. I love the jokester in Oliver but also the caring sensitive side. Rowan is stronger than she thinks and with Oliver's help she fights for what's right.

This entire series is great.

Stella Hunter and Connor Crais are great to listen to. They brought out the best of Rowan and Oliver and I loved listening to them.

Great book, great series and I highly recommend it.

Quick, light, sexy and fun

Great addition to the Starfish rock star series but certainly can be read as a stand alone. Fantastic narration brings the witty banter and swoony romance to life. You’ll fall hard for prankster Oliver as he tries to convince one night stand Rowan that he’s the real deal.

Super Cute!

I really enjoyed this story of a quiet piano player finding love in the most unexpected place!

These two were a match made in heaven as the saying goes. She is a big fan of his music but doesn’t necessarily connect the dots on who he is and falls for him hard first.

Very sweet with some major steam thrown in the middle.

This is narrated by Connor Crais who is already a favorite of mine.


And Stella Hunter who I am very aware of but this is my first time listening to her in a recording (I’ve listened to her record live which was fun!)

She is definitely going on my favorites list
