Summary

The dreamiest player on the Moo U hockey team hangs a flyer on the bulletin board, and I am spellbound:

Rent a boyfriend for the holiday. For $25, I will be your Thanksgiving date. I will talk hockey with your dad. I will bring your mother flowers. I will be polite, and wear a nicely ironed shirt....

Now everyone knows it’s a bad idea to introduce your long-time crush to your messed-up family. But I really do need a date for Thanksgiving, even if I’m not willing to say why. So I tear his phone number off of that flyer...and accidentally entangle our star defenseman in a ruse that neither of us can easily unwind.

Because Weston's family is even nuttier than mine. He needs a date, too, for the most uncomfortable holiday engagement party ever thrown.

There will be hors d'oeuvre. There will be faked PDA. And there will be pro-level awkwardness…

Boyfriend is a full-length book for Weston and Abbi!

I really like Sarina Bs books and writing - particularly her True North series. while i thought this was a good young adult book, from a not young adult perspective, I can't say I found it an enjoyable listen. Abby just had too much of an uphill battle in life, and kept having to deal with curve balls that the listening "pain" that comes with being an empathetic person didn't make this easy or fun listening for the majority of the book. while drama did not feel over the top, and provided the relationship hurdles and plot lines, there wasn't enough light and humour to balance it out for me. very relieved they found their way to the happy ending. seriously, it was a RELIEF. good narration, just didn't sound very young adult, but that worked for me.

Good, but mostly emotionally painful

It started off as Abbi and West only as friends then turned into friends with benefits then they became girlfriend and boyfriend.

I honestly can't remember if this story is any good or not, I kept zoning out to try and protect my ears from the female narrator. I didn't know it was possible for a single voice to sound at once whiney, breathy and absolutely garbled with vocal fry. Jason Clarke saved half of the book for me, I couldn't have continued listening if Emma Wilder narrated the entire book.
I was irritated in a few instances early on when the character Weston insisted he was 'too manly' to pay attention to certain things (such as details of his sisters wedding or colour schemes) - I'm tired of such stupid and outdated stereotypes.
Other than that, the story was fine, but I will not be listening to any future books by Emma Wilder. 1/5 stars for Emma, 4.5/5 stars for Jason.
