Naughty Neighbor

Falling for the Stars Series, Book 1

De: Lauren Runow, Jeannine Colette

Narrado por: Brandon Utah, Stephanie Wyles

As a romance novelist, I'm facing my worst nightmare - writer's block. No matter what I write, I hit delete, knowing it's not worth publishing. The future of my career rests on the success of this new book.

So, here I am, looking at Tumblr, desperate for inspiration, when I hear a thumping. Annoyed by the music blaring through the walls, I barge into the hall and bang on my neighbor's door.

My very hot, very naughty neighbor, Jake Morreau.

Jake is romantic, charming, and the bane of my existence. I need to work, yet he refuses to let me. When he greets me in the hallway, ideas of a sinfully hot hero come to mind. When he takes me out on the town, the words flow as soon as I come home. The more time I spend with this entertaining and quick-witted man, the more I'm able to write.

My neighbor is my muse, and before I know it, I slowly become the heroine of my own story, but I don't know how to end it. As I write the epilogue, I'm afraid our romance won't pan out as I've written.

Jake Morreau is my hero. Then again, in my life, heroes don't exist.

Contains mature themes.

Good story!

While overall I did enjoy this book, there were some spots that were kind of slow.Also, Laci's character was annoying at times.

Mostly Robotic Narrator

Female narrator narrates most of this book and she is very robotic almost sounds like virtual voice. it's tolerable, but really takes away from the story at times. Ends in HEA, has third act breakup, has 2 or 3 spicy scenes. Cute story, but there is a good amount of boring filler. Overall it's cute, sweet and an easy listen, but if it wasn't included in the plus catalog I probably would have been slightly upset to spend a credit on it.

Romance

I thoroughly enjoyed the story! I’m looking forward to reading more of your love stories.

Seriously?

This book had me until Jake drops the L word 3 days into dating and gets all pissed off that she won’t say it back. In real life, that would be one hell of a red flag.

Narrator lacked inflection and humanity.

DNF

Narration sounded like a robot at times. Slow moving storyline. Could not finish this story actually listened to far loner than I should have.

Male narrator reads only one chapter

I feel somehow cheated that the male narrator read during only one chapter, especially when that was really the only interesting chapter of the book. The female reader had a kind of chipmunk voice that was difficult for me to listen to, but I could have lived with that. It was just that the story wasn’t very appealing. It lacked conflict and didn’t have much in the line of original humor. I made myself finish the book, but I was glad when it was through. and oh yeah, the steamy parts really weren’t all that steamy. 

Narrator is awful

I had to double check that the narrator was a real person. Absolutely no emotion. Robotic and stilted. The story was interesting enough that I listened for 3 hours but I absolutely cannot finish. I’ll try kindle when I have time to actually sit still and read.

Disappointed

The story dragged. The female character sounded robotic and she was annoying. Barely got through it
