About this listen

Can two people who have never met make a marriage work? Popular dating site Sociality thinks so, and is marrying London lad Adam to California girl Jessica to prove it.

What better way to show that your 'love algorithms' work than to put two complete strangers together in an expensive publicity stunt? But, as livewire Jess and lazybones Adam quickly discover, just because a computer says you're the perfect match, it doesn't make it so!

Two million Sociality subscribers and the media are following the happy couple's progress, and they have to make a go of it or they'll lose everything, look like idiots, and destroy Sociality's reputation. But can the mismatched pair, who seem to be constantly at each other's throats, put their differences aside and work their way into each other's hearts?

Nick Spalding, bestselling author of Fat Chance and Bricking It, will make you cry with laughter at this story of marital warfare - complete with sinking boats, badly aimed flatulence, well aimed tennis balls, and some very suggestive pastry.

Laugh out loud funny. Enjoyed the crazy scenarios the lead characters get into. Great bit of escapism during these crazy times!

Great Yarn

Great read! I do love a good rom com. My wife tells me I should try something else, but I say hell no. I want to laugh, cry and feel good at the end. Nick Spalding is awesome. (So is Matt Dunn 😜)

Love it!!!!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

A special offer meant for the first time I tried a book as an audio and written version. Great idea, I loved the fact that I could still listen to the story when busy doing things and couldn't read. However, the narration was rather annoying. Why are they employing an actor from New Zealand to voice a British man - are there not enough Brits available?? He wasn't unpleasant to listen to but just not right. the were occasional tinges of his real accent and the English accent he used was just too posh for the character. The American accent of the female character was just too, twangy. All in all I enjoyed the book much more when reading it.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Mad Love?

No hugely memorable bits but there were several funny parts which made me giggle.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Yes, sorry Guys, it wasn't you, just that you didn't fit my perception of the voices for these characters.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

not necessarily.

Fun and Frothy, ideal holiday reading/listen

A brilliant story that will be heading to the screens as a great RomCom I’m sure. Nico E-S narration was brilliant, liked that the story was from each of the main characters perspective, however Amy Landon grated on me and will not be downloading any books she narrates.

How a narrator can ruin a good story.
