Some Sort of Happy

Happy Crazy Love, Book 1

By: Melanie Harlow

Narrated by: Nelson Hobbs, Lucy Malone

I almost didn't believe it was him. In high school, Sebastian Pryce had been an aloof outsider who kept to himself. But now, 10 years later, he's back and unusually attractive. With muscles in all the right places and hands that know exactly what they're doing, Sebastian is everything I didn't know I needed. And while he isn't exactly friendly, he has a magnetism that draws me in.

He pulls away, afraid he'll break me. Until the night I demand more - and he gives it. (Hard and deep. Twice.) Are we just two lost, lonely people seeking solace? Or could a disgraced reality TV star and a flawed, frustrating man actually find some sort of happy together?

Critic reviews

" Some Sort of Happy is all kinds of amazing, sexy, and romantic." (Lauren Blakely, author of The Sapphire Affair)

Some Sort of Happy

I loved Sebastian and his illness. I cannot call them his flaws because they are not flaws. I loved that she fought him to see that he was more than his illness. When most people think of OCD they think about everything having place but it is so much more than that. The author did an outstanding job describing what a person with severe OCD suffers in their daily life.
A truly amazing love story.

5 stars

Loved everything about this book. The storyline, the characters and passion. I have to say I enjoyed learning about adults and OCD. I don’t read many books that tackle this.

Unique and believable

I enjoyed this story because it was different and more realistic. The Performance was great.

Loved this.

Heartwarming. Different. Sebastian’s OCD and obsessive thoughts play a huge part in this story. Not your average romance. It was touching.

Pleasantly adorable

This is my first book by this author and I wasn't sure what to expect but I'm glad I listened. I think Melanie did a wonderful job depicting the life of someone with OCD.

I enjoy Nelson Hobbs' voice in everything I have heard from him and this is no different. I took a little issue with Lucy's voice. It sounds too old for this age of characters.

Enlightening

I’m so happy I listened to this book. I love that it wasn’t your typical romance story and delved into the mind of someone with OCD. The narration was excellent and neither narrator had anything annoying about them. That can sometimes ruin a book for me. I can’t wait to listen to the rest of this series. I absolutely loved Sebastian and Skylar and their beautiful but complicated love.

Fun Book

Any additional comments?

I loved the book when I read it. I thought the audiobook really brought the characters to life in a great way. The male narrator seemed a bit rushed at times but still great. The female narrator was good. It's an adorable story and lots of fun. Definitely worth a credit.

Cute story with real people issues

I liked this one and am glad I decided to give it a try. The narrators were excellent and they paired well with the solid storyline.

Nelson Hobbs - AMAZING

Beautiful, anguished, sad, loving and beautiful story. OCD is no joke and my heart goes out to anyone suffering and the families suffering. Nelson Hobbs and Lucy Malone, brought this story to life.
My first book by Melanie Harlow, so we’ll done to where tears came to my eyes. Beautiful

Mental Health

Skylar and Sebastian had such a sweet story. Both went to the same high school. However Skylar was more popular and Sebastian was the "class weirdo" because of his mental health issues. However, Skylar wasn't a bully to him. They both moved on with their lives, experiencing ups and downs. They reunited at very interesting times in each of their lives.

I though this was a great story that accurately depicted struggles with Mental Health. I felt at though the author really did her homework. She humanized something that a lot of people don't get. I like that Skylar didn't try to change him but she adapted with him. Both people grew and learned together.

I love Nelson Hobbs. His performance was great. Lucy Malone is also pretty good.
