Road Trip

By: Andie M. Long, Laura Barnard

Narrated by: Victoria Fitzgerald

After the end of a car crash relationship, can Katy find true love?

Catching her sister in bed with her fiancé, school teacher Katy Cornish enlists playboy colleague Felix Montague to help her save face. What she doesn’t bargain on is them both losing their jobs in the process.

With money running out, Katy must endure the rude and arrogant Felix while they embark on a road trip around the country, in hopes of securing a new job. But there’s just one problem - they’re up for the same posts. This road trip is going to be unlike any other, with them doing whatever they can to sabotage the other.

Can they see past themselves and their egos to each other? Or, will their desperation to continue their careers drive them apart?

Not your typical road trip

An unlikely duo are brought together as they both strive for the same thing... finding a new job. There antics put them in this position, having both lost their jobs on the same day, and now they’re competing at the same interviews. The constant attempts at sabotage did have me shaking my head, but also laughing out loud.

Neither of these authors are new to me, but I think this is the first joint piece I’ve listened to. I was entertained throughout as the story followed the unexpected road trip Katy and Felix embarked on across the UK.

Victoria Fitzgerald’s performance was spot on for this story. I think she nailed the personalities of the characters and was the perfect voice for Katy.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Wonderful and real

I loved this book. It was cheeky, heartfelt and laugh out loud funny. You’ll love it.

Hilarious & fun

Felix and Katy's OTT shenanigans in Road Trip was quite an adventure and I was entertained from start to finish. Written in dual POVs this romcom by by Andie M. Long & Laura Barnard will have you laughing out loud - it's saucy, binge-worthy, light and a nice escape from reality!

It was hard to stop listening and I almost finished this audiobook in the one session

I'm still laughing!

This book is everything you need in a rom-com. I still can't stop laughing at all the antics that happen to Katy and Felix on their road trip to job interviews.
Reminded me of a rom-com version of Home Alone with the antics they get into.
I highly recommend this!

Hillarious

Really enjoyed listening to this hillarious story .Katy and Felix are so funny and keep you entertained the whole way through..Only thing I didn't like was the over use of the word man whore by Katy otherwise fantastic

Hilarious Road Trip Book

Katy walks in on her fiancee with her sister in a way that has Katy walking out and looking at Felix Montague for help. Felix is known around the school she teaches at as a bit of a player, he has never glanced her way but she needs his help with a little make believe payback. Felix knows of Katy and knows she has helped swirl the rumor mill about him never once trying to find out if it is true. Felix decides to make his own conditions to help her out. One thing leads to another and both Katy and Felix find themselves having to share a road trip that leads to a little bit more.

I listened to this on audiobook and initially the accent is a bit heavy but it works. This story reminded me of Bridget Jones a bit especially Katy's mom. I thought the humor was spot on in this one. I liked Felix and Katy, I enjoyed seeing how they begin to realize they are not what the other assumed about them. Some really funny laugh out loud moments. Delightful road trip book.

What a road trip!

This is the kind of road trip that will live forever in infamy. Katy and Felix are enemies at work and end up losing their jobs because of poor behavior. They need to get new jobs but limited funds requires that they go on a road trip together since both of them are going after the same jobs. Although definitely not professional, their behaviors elicited a heck of a lot of laughter from me. I really enjoyed this road trip and was happy to watch their relationship grow from enemies to friends and finally, to see them achieve their HEA (Or I should say, happily for now). The ending felt really rushed though- I would have appreciated maybe an epilogue just to see how they resolved certain aspects of their relationship.

I requested and received this book as an audiobook although I bought the ebook. I liked the audiobook- I do wish that there was both a male and female narrator because while Victoria Fitzgerald was really good, I sometimes wasn't sure who was speaking as there wasn't a huge differentiation between her male and female voices. Otherwise, she had really good pacing and she was an energetic narrator who really made this book fun to listen to.

outrageously funny

Hilarious, humorous, and lighthearted fun story, that put a huge smile on my face and gave me MANY laughs. The dialogue between Katie and Felix had me peeing my pants. Just what we all could use now - laughter!! I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator blew me away and kept me hanging on her every word. Fantabulous!

Such a fun road trip with Katy and Felix!

This was the first book by Laura Barnard that I have read or listened to. I've helped promote her books in the past but for some reason this one caught my eye, or ear I should say, and I had to give her a try. Oh my gosh, this was such a fun trip!

I listened to the audio-book on my morning walks and I literally laughed out loud in parts! What did the neighbors think, I wonder?

I spent a lot of time with the quirky characters, Katy and Felix, and their zany escapades as they traveled together to job interviews. Katy can't stand being around Felix, who has a reputation for being a 'player' and Felix likes to get Katy's goat in any way that he can. I loved the back and forth banter the two of them got themselves into.

Road Trip is a hilarious, fun adventure that you really need to take. Enjoy the ride.... and the laughs!

Loved it!

This audio was hilarious from beginning to the very end. I never knew what was going to happen from one moment to the next. If you are looking for a audio that will keep you giggling and make you fall in love with the characters then I highly recommend this one. Andie M. Long and Laura Barnard did an amazing job with this book.
Victoria Fitzgerald did an awesome job narrating this book and bringing it to life.

I have received a free copy of this audio for an honest review.
