Love Unscripted

The Love Series, Book 1

De: Tina Reber

Narrado por: Madeleine Maby

An A-List movie star....

Ryan Christensen just wanted to be an actor. Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine a life where fans would chase him, paparazzi would stalk him, and Hollywood studios would want to own him. While filming in Seaport, Rhode Island, Ryan ducks into a neighborhood bar for a quick escape from legions of screaming fans... and finds much more than he expected.

A small-town girl....

Nursing a recent heartbreak, Taryn Mitchell believes men are best kept at a safe distance. But when Ryan Christensen unexpectedly bursts through the front door of her pub, she can’t help but be drawn in by his humor, charm, and undeniable good looks. At six foot two, with dirty blond hair, blue eyes, and an incredible body, Ryan has every girl in Seaport swooning. But Taryn isn’t every other girl.

A relationship that doesn’t follow the script....

Despite her better judgment, Taryn soon finds herself falling hard for Ryan. But is their bond strong enough to survive the tabloid headlines, the relentless paparazzi, and the jealous fans who seem determined to tear them apart?

Wow just wow

wow, what a romance who would not fall for Ryan and Taryn's hesitation, it has everything loved it. The narrator did an amazing job.

What a great story....

Would you listen to Love Unscripted again? Why?

Of course I would. First of all, the story was great and definitely kept you wanting to listen more and more. Secondly, the narrator was amazing and did a great job with the characters throughout the book. And finally, the love story between Taryn and Ryan was beautiful.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I would have to say Taryn because she was such an honest, independent and realistic character. She never steered away from her morals and roots, which made me resonate with her.

Have you listened to any of Madeleine Maby’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I have not, but she's a great narrator! Especially when you have to incorporate a male voice as one of the main characters...it's important to listeners that it sounds as realistic as possible and not fake and she did a great job at this.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I actually experienced both. The story was not one that's too realistic as how often does a celebrity walk into a bar you own and fall in love with a normal pedestrian? But, it does allow you to dream and hope that this might happen. The characters were pure and fun to get to know better. It was a great journey and I really enjoyed the love story as well as the ups and downs between Taryn and Ryan.

This book is excellent and so if the next one.

I totally loved this book. I was so happy when this one was over the book continued in another book. I will always read any more books Tina Reber writes. You will LOVE Tarin and Ryan. This story is so complete I really love it. You are immediate part of Tarin's life as a pub owner who meets and loves a movie star. Ryan is so wonderful like a lot of us feel the movies stars we like are. Living in his and Tarins world is amazing.

Very good book

Enjoy this very good book. A little slow in the middle and a tad predictable, but still a good story line.

Good listen; somewhat predictable and dramatic

What made the experience of listening to Love Unscripted the most enjoyable?

This was a very entertaining listen. At times the drama between the characters was a bit much but overall a good listen.

Worth listening to again!

Character & relationship development well done. That is often my favorite part & this succeeds. Imaginative love story. I would have liked the heroine to be stronger with less angst - but it was tolerable. I recommend this book.

OMG! So unexpected! So GOOOOOOD!!!!

WOW! I was blown away! I did not expect this. I love Maby narration, so I got this for a road trip. Boy, what great way to spend a credit. Totally worth it. Loved this story. Let me say this right now, THIS IS A LOVE STORY! The basic love story rules apply... i.e. girl meets guy, they get together, break up, get back together.

Now with that said... the basic rules has nothing on this book. WOW... such a good story and sooo freakin real. Ryan is a movie star and Tarren is a regular bar owner that has never seen Ryan's movies. It starts there. U have to get this book. It is very very long, but very very good. Each character is sooooo well developed, you feel like you know them personally. I loved it. Even the side characters are well developed with thier own personalities. Great Great!

Ryan and Tarren have issues ( I will not give it away) that try to tear them apart and it so freakin good, I almost wreaked my car listening to this book! I got soo into this book... I felt each characters pain... and let me tell you... they both had pain... SOOOO goood...

Like I said, Maby is such a great narrator, u just get sucked in. Men sound like men and every female is comeplely different...u can totally tell them apart. Maby is right up there with the Sands sisters. I mean no one is good as Xe Sands but Maby is a very close second...and that is saying alot!!!

This is a great buy/credit... Matter of fact... this is a must buy/credit!!!

Great story for teenagers, I'm not one

The story was very boring for me. I had to make myself listen to it. Cute superstar actor meets ordinary girl. Then what? Nothing. Teenage fantasy maybe but not for adults.

Kind of a let down

I liked this book, but I didn't love it. Reasons: It was too long and I got bored. There is one love scene in the entire book - so not steamy enough. I liked the characters, loved the narrator. It could have been a great book -- the beginning of their love story was entertaining...but the last 1/3 of the book was just disappointing.

Great love story!

Where does Love Unscripted rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Very high!!!

What other book might you compare Love Unscripted to and why?

The Marriage series and Bared to you series

What does Madeleine Maby bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I love listening to her, she made the story very interesting.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yes, there are so many, I love the beginning of getting to know each other. Then the part where she lost the baby and the proposal.

Any additional comments?

I hope they will make a movie!!!
