About this listen

In this audio-first rom com by #1 New York Times bestselling author Lauren Blakely, a scorching one-night stand with a stranger turns into a deliciously forbidden romance...

My first evening in London feels like kismet when I bump into a charming, book-loving Englishman, and by the end of the night, he’s making me see stars. I’m floating when we make plans to meet again.

Then fate decides to pull a fast one on me.

Turns out, my smoldering new lover is my red-hot competition, and we’re vying for the same promotion at the elite auction house I crossed an ocean for.

If that’s not enough, the hottie and I are forced to work together on a brand new collection. Every. Single. Tempting. Day.

What's an American woman in London to do?

Staying far, far away would be the safe choice, especially when I learn about his past and how it mirrors mine. But I don’t always play it safe with my heart…

Very light hearted love story, however very predictable. easy audio book for a work day, but I wasn’t engrossed

The narrator putting on a girls voice drove me crazy when the story was being read by both male and female, it feels unnecessary for them to mimic the other gender.

Nice little listen

This is actually book three in happy endings series.
I’m a big fan of shane east and both him and Julia do a good job.

Little to no angst
Hea? Yes
Romance? Yes
World building? Not really. Totally fine as a stand alone. No big secondary characters.

Slice of life story. Nice to have two characters be honest with their feelings without the angst. I really enjoyed Wanderlust 5/5 too.

Couldn't get into the book because the male characters were really jarring. Unsure if due to performance or writing or both.

The male protagonist is unlikeable

The story is a wonderful soppy love story and like the characters who love reading I find no fault with that, bring on the next.

All wonderful

This was a sweet story and an easy listen. Yes okay, the kismet part is quite unlikely, but so what! I think that just added to its charm. The two main characters working together and being from different countries is something a lot of people would actually have to deal with, so not completely out there. I really enjoyed it ☺️

Sweet story

It was chill, a slice of life story, and included under audible original.

I listened to Kismet while putting together some furniture so it was easy on the ears but I think it would've been better as a duet narration.
