Secrets of a Spinster

Sweet and clean

I enjoy friends to lovers stories and this is a nice, clean one. She's not quite a blue stocking who gets a makeover and almost lies herself. However, her handsome best friend and sister inevitably keep her grounded and we get a HEA that's just right.

This paled when compared to others in the series

This book never got off the ground (in my opinion). It was fairly good but tended to be lacklustre and unmemorable.

The narration was good.

Characters to Love

Jeff an Mary hook the reader into their love story quickly and their humor and believability keep you there. However the plot is extremely weak. The social events and extreme lack of depth in the supporting characters reminded me of a junior high soap opera. Jeff and Mary kept me listening and I was able to finish cleaning a closet and fill 4 picture albums. I love Audible for that very reason.


Get Outlook for iOS

Best in the series.

I really enjoyed this book. I loved the journey the two main characters go through. Sometimes what you want is the thing you already had.

never disappointing! titillating!

as usual Connelly and Boyd deliver a story with titillating love scenes and a great. The character development is complete and lets reader feel like they know and identify with them. Good research shows up as details of story line background is realistic and life like.

My favorite of the Arrangements series

Delightful characters, exciting but believable story. So well done! I love how it included the other characters from the series and continued to develop them as well.

Should have been 3 hours shorter

Story was ok overall however I feel had it been shorter it would have been much more interesting. I actually stopped listening after the Love was FINALLY confessed.
Story began with girl loved boy and boy did not know it. Then man loved woman and she did not know it. She decided to “have some fun” and improve herself for her last season however in the process she became somewhat unlikable and rude and even told the hero not to call her the nickname he had called her all her life since it was not appropriate and threw him out of her house during a party, after an argument. During her “change” She also became super ungrateful and hurtful towards the hero even though he was her escort to the balls. However her personality is turned around and explained off as not being that of a super arrogant and nasty person to make her appear like an angel by a friend of the hero stating how she defended his super rude and arrogant sister (whom she copied) and her own sister. I guess that was to explain how nasty she had been all along and that, of course, was supposed to excuse it all and everyone goes on happy and the hero apologizes for calling her out. 😂🤣. So I did not like her character. It was not constant. I personally can not see the attraction to someone so changeable with their clothing and hair style.

Intense but good

I found the emotional side of the story too intense and long drawn out but enjoyable nevertheless. I recommend the whole series to anyone looking for an entertaining and clean read. The narrator is good too

Slow and not enough plot twists

It was very slow with very little plot twists. Did not even finish it due to boring plot
