My Favorite Half-Night Stand

De: Christina Lauren

Narrado por: Shayna Thibodeaux, Deacon Lee

From the New York Times best-selling author who “hilariously depicts modern dating” (Us Weekly) comes a sexy romantic comedy about online dating and its many, many fails.

With a world-famous speaker at their university, Millie Morris and her four woefully single male colleagues make a pact that they’ll all find dates. Unfortunately, Millie has more success helping them make matches online than she does navigating the onslaught of lewd pics in her own feed. But when she creates a fictional name for a new account, Millie finds herself vying for the online attention of a man she sees every day in the flesh.

Thoughtful

These authors always seem to have that exact combo of sweet and sexy and I love it. I savor their books.

This is one of my favorite Tropes, friends to lovers. It really was eye-opening to see that you can be friends with someone but not really “know” them if they don’t want you to. Or if they can’t open up like you need them to. It was eye-opening if you think about your friends in your own life how true this can be.

I loved that Millie is like one of the guys and when they all choose to go on the dating app she really is the voice of reason. Only when it comes to herself she isn’t comfortable doing what she can for them for herself.

I loved the mystery ;) and how it all played out it was different and I liked that.

I am a huge fan of both narrators so I thoroughly enjoyed their performances.

LOVED!

I absolutely LOVED the way this book went back and forth. normally the books go back and forth through different timeframes and you have to keep up which I really dislike but this communication back and forth was wonderful one person picking up where the other left off brilliant! and once again I am a softie for romance and happy endings which I really believe this was. 10 stars did I say I loved this story well I did so thanks :)

My favorite half night stand

Millie and her four best guy friends set up online dating profiles after making a pact at a black tie gala. Millie uses her real name Catherine and gets dinged by Reid. Her best friend and one of the guys. She's always liked Reid but was to chicken to say anything. While they talk online Millie says certain things to show Reid it's her but to no luck they fly over his head. When Reid finds out will this break their friendship for good? Great read.

Very modem and realistic romance

I liked the two main characters, as well as the groupof friends. it was also nice to include group chats and messages in the text of the book. in a modern world, most communication is done with technology and that was relatable. I thought the plot unfolded well and that the characters reactions made sense.
and I just love Deacon Lee's narration.

So many of Christina Lauren’s other books have a better developed story

The story was realistic and ok but it was just about her insecurities. Not one of their best.

I don't know how I feel about that...

So, first let me start by saying I LOVE the authors of this book and I have been a fan since the beginning. This book had me conflicted and I am still not really sure how I feel about that.

It is basically a case of mistaken identity, keeping secrets too long, missed opportunities, etc. In the end, the blame game is where I became really conflicted. I was angry on her behalf, then I was angry on his behalf...then I was upset with her, then I was upset with him. Still, I am not sure how I feel the events.

That is what I love about the authors though.I believe a sign of a good book is the hangover that it gives you after you have finished it. And I have a massive hangover from this one. This book is going to stay with me for a long time just because I still have conflicting emotions regards to the characters and their actions.

Worth a credit!

So sorry maybe beautiful Bastard.....

Riuned the rest of life in erotica/romcom and listening to other readers.......not like I didn't listen in record time thogh.... Love clo💋💕

enjoyable, cute listen

it was very enjoyable and a cute quick listen!
easy to follow along and pick back up where i left off everytime

Well done all around.

The characters in this story were well performed and well developed. The story was believable and so human. I enjoyed it more than I have any romantic relationship story I've listened to for quite a while. I highly recommend it if you like this type of book.

The voices

I have only 18 romantic books under my belt and this was this first time I’ve ever been so put off by the male voice I couldn’t get that into the book. The story was typical and the male role was standard but the voice was higher pitched and annoying.
