About this listen

Adam

I've got it bad for my best friend, but he's only had eyes for my sister since we were kids. I don't know what I'll do if they hook up - especially after a drunken kiss West doesn't seem to remember. Seeing them together just might kill me, so why I offer to help him hone his dating skills, I'll never know. FML.

West

Ever since a drunken kiss we haven't talked about, I've been seeing Adam in a new light. Trouble is, he thinks I want his sister. This whole bisexual awakening thing is scary, and I don't want to risk our friendship by moving too fast. But when Adam mocks my dating skills, I come up with a genius plan: Five Fake Dates. Adam thinks he's helping me, and I get to test the waters without risking our friendship. Win-win!

A few fake dates, increasingly real kisses, and a tiny deception between friends. What could go wrong?

Five Fake Dates was originally written for a promotional giveaway to fans. It has been expanded to approximately 27,000 words and now has a little more spice and a bonus epilogue with HEA!

This was kind of adorable. Really young sweet college age friends to lovers. I have a special weakness for friends to lovers and loved getting to see their relationship unfold. The author did a great job of making use of the novella length to really develop their connection and story. I loved both guys and this was such a great feel good romance.

Perfect afternoon pick me up.

Super cute and sweet

This is a short but lovely NA friends to lovers tale. We hear both points of view as West and Adam practise dating in a delightful ploy designed by West to prepare him for dating Adam’s sister. There’s a nice mix of banter and more serious moments as the romance develops between the guys.

Darcy Stark is a new narrator for me. I thought he did a great job with this story and in presenting the two main characters. His narration is clear and steady, with plenty of expression, making it a pleasure to listen.

A delightful friends to lovers story

The story is always full stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook. I can't listen to an audiobook without knowing the book, that's not possible for me.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, I’m over the half, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

as good as the ebook

Such a fun story!
Adam and West (did anyone run those names together? Just me?) have been friends for a while. West has a crush on Adam's sister - or so it seems - and Adam has a crush on West. When West realises that maybe he may actually prefer Adam, he cooks up an excuse to have Adam show him what it's like to properly date someone. What follows are some fun, cute and some steamy times for the MCs.
An easy story to enjoy, even more so with Darcy Stark narrating. It was easy to distinguish between the characters and he had a good pace. Really enjoyed listening.

A fun, romantic story :)

Story: Two cute characters, lots of banter, best friends to lovers college story. This one is a true gem! Loved everything about the story, including the dash of angst that made it all the more enjoyable!

Narration: Great job on the narrator's part. It was a very pleasant listen and it all worked perfectly for the story!

So awesome!
