So cute and so funny!

Story: 5 stars

I don't recommend this as a stand-alone, all the characters from the other books are in this book and it would be REALLY difficult to keep everyone straight if you hadn't read the other books first.

Now to the review: I was laughing out loud at some of the dialogue (inner and spoken) in this book! Both Lottie and Lucas are adorable! And, in true Laura Burton style, our intrepid hero and heroine keep getting plot twists thrown at them. This is a book I'll be listening to again!

Narration: 4.5 stars

Ms. Albers does a great job of expression, pacing, accents, etc. My one and only complaint, and I see her logic in recording it this way, is that Lucas' thoughts are in a deeper voice, but when he talks it's in a higher voice. I kind of wish she'd kept the lower voice for it all. But with so much inner dialogue going on with both characters, it was already difficult to know which thoughts were said aloud. I'd happily listen to Ms. Albers narrate again!

DNF

Lottie is not someone that I would really enjoy being around given her pessimist attitude around Christmas, and while the narrator tried her best, the voice for Lotties mom, was not very good.

Lottie also seems quite whiny for 23 years old, which most twenty-somethings have grown past, so that was another reason I ended up not finishing this book.





Disclamer: I received a free code from the author. All opinions are my own.

British Christmas fun

I was given a free copy of this Audiobook In exchange for an honest review. I enjoyed this British holiday romance. The book has alot of interesting characters and I it was a fun read.

Perfect for fans of the series...

Love Me, Darling by Laura Burton is the last/fourth book on her Love Me series, but can be read as a standalone once you get used to all the names thrown at the beginning. I liked getting to know Lottie and Lucas, especially with a character like hers, where, due to personal reasons, she isn't a fan of Christmas. Of course, it's fun getting to see her thrown into all the activities surrounding the season, and finding out there are perks to certain traditions, such as the kiss under the mistletoe. However, since this is a novella, things happened rather quickly for me, and even though this is supposed to be compensated by the fact that they've known each since forever, I never fully got that impression.

As for the narrator, I have to give her points for adding the explanations, gasps, sighs, and so on from the different characters, since most of those are usually only mentioned in the narration. However, I think I'd have loved this book more if the voices between Lottie and Lucas, as well as other characters, would have been more clearly differentiated; also, I found it a bit jarring that a character's voice could change so much.

Overall, I think this a sweet romance and great addition that fans of the series and of Ms. Burton's writing will love to get their hands on.~ 3.5 stars

PS: It'd really help if the male on the cover (either the old or new) would have blond hair, just as the description in the book.

Feel Good Listen

Love Me Darling by Laura Burton is a sweet and clean love story. Lottie and Lucas have known each other for years. The characters are charming. Charlie Emmeline Albers has a very nice voice for this listen. She expresses the emotions fittingly.

A Sweet Christmas Story

I'm a big fan of Hallmark-esque stories and this one didn't disappoint. No surprises in this cute Christmas story. It's short so we get to the point rather quickly but it worked into my busy schedule nicely.

As for the narration, I will agree on what others have said about the alternating POV in the chapters and having a hard time distinguishing between the male and female.. I also wish there were some pauses in there. Everything kind of flowed together instead of having a natural rhythm. Charlie Emmeline Albers does have an adorable voice which reminded me somewhat of Glynis Johns so it was quite pleasant to listen to.
