***** AUDIOBOOK REVIEW *****
Ahhhh
Meghan Quinn, you devil you, I just adored this audiobook! Quinn starts
out with a bit of a raunchier banter than normal; I loved this
audiobook. I feel like Quinn ups her game time and time again. After the
first 30 minutes the raunch calmed down and we went right into Quinn’s
signature style with sweet meeting heat with fun all sprinkled on top. I
loved watching the crafting genius and the jaded divorce lawyer battle
it out in a game of wedded bliss via crafting. This wedding Game was
just super fun! I ate it up!
Lauren Sweet and Tor Thom did a superb job! Sweet was amazing. She was able to be indignite
and light and fun. Then she’d turn on the charm or flip it and she’s be
this crazed crafty-woman full of a repugnant and precarious woman set
on winning and nothing else… in the beginning. Sweet totally channeled
that. I don’t know how but she did and I FELT IT! Tor Thom was beyond
perfection. He pulled off that cocky and cockamamie lawyer that barely
believes in what he’s playing for. There could not have been two better
narrators! Perfect, perfect job.
Thank you, Brilliance Publishing,
for the complimentary copy of this audiobook with the hope that I would
leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review,
positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.
Blurb:
USA Today bestselling author Meghan Quinn’s latest bauble is the charming story of a crafting queen battling a jaded divorce lawyer on a wedding reality show.Luna Wu is a veritable crafting genius—she can bedazzle and bead so hard her Etsy site is one of the hottest in the world. So it’s only natural that Luna would convince her brother and his husband-to-be to compete on The Wedding Game, a “do-it-yourself” TV show, for the title of Top DIY Wedding Expert.As a jaded divorce lawyer, Alec Baxter scoffs at weddings and romance. But when his recently engaged brother begs him to participate in The Wedding Game, Alec grudgingly picks up a glue gun and prepares for some family bonding.Both fierce competitors, Luna and Alec clash on national TV as harsh words and glitter fly with abandon. But as they bicker over color swatches and mood boards, they find themselves fighting something else: their growing mutual attraction. While Luna is torn between family loyalty and her own feelings, Alec wonders if he might have been wrong about love and marriage all along…
Excerpt:
“Are you ready?” Farrah says, coming from behind me and massaging my shoulders. I move my head side to side while we both hop up and down. “Did you do those finger exercises I told you about?”I flex my fingers and nod. “Yup, all warmed up.”“Do you have your game face on?” Farrah spins me around and grips my shoulders as I mean mug it at her. “Ooo, you’ve been practicing in the mirror. I can tell.”“When I brush my teeth. I really feel like I’ve mastered the scowl.”“Honey, you mastered the scowl years ago. Now you’re just coming into your own with it.” She holds up her hands, and I start boxing into them as we leap around the apartment. “Quick on your feet, quick on your feet.” Farrah swings her hand at me, and I duck. “Focus, hone your attention.”“Focused.”“Tell me, who’s going to kill it today?”“I am.” I bob back and forth and then give Farrah a one-two punch to her hands.“Who’s going to do anything necessary, even sit on someone’s face if you need to, in order to win today’s challenge?”“I am. Show no mercy. My ass is coming for your face.”Farrah pauses, winces. “I’m not sure I like that.”“Just go with it.”“Okay, Luna’s ass is coming for your face.” She shrugs. “Next week let’s work on your trash talk.”“Might be necessary.”Circling again, I box at Farrah’s hands, feeling light on my feet and ready for anything that comes my way. “You’re going to ignore all conversations from Mr. Snobby Shoes.”“I don’t even know he exists.”“Your eyes are on the prize. And what is that prize?”“Giving Cohen and Declan the best wedding possible.”“Exactly.” She lowers her palms. “Quick, flash me your hands.”I lift my hands, and she inspects them carefully.“You lotioned—good. Nails are clipped to a perfect length, and those fingers are stretched and strong. Rotate your wrists for me.” She lowers her ear to my wrists as I circle them around. “Perfect, no cracking, no tension.” She points to the ground. “Fast feet.”My feet start bouncing up and down, like in those football movies, and I hold my hands at my hips, ready for the call . . .“Draw!” Farrah shouts.I pull my glue gun from my hip and point it at her. “You’ve been glued.”Farrah claps her hands. “Reaction time was spot on. You’re ready.”“Yeah?”She nods. “You got this, girl. This competition is yours for the taking. And remember what we talked about: don’t focus on what you think will win . . .”“Focus on what will bring Cohen and Declan joy.”
